1 Nämät ovat sukukuntain nimet: pohjoisesta Hetlonin tien vierestä, siihenasti kuin tullaan Hamatiin, HatsarEnoniin, Damaskun rajaan pohjaan päin, Hamatin sivulle; sen pitää Danin pitämän osaksensa, itään ja länteen päin.

2 Likin Danin rajaa pitää Asserin osa oleman, idän puolesta länteen.

3 Likin Asseria pitää Naphtalin osa oleman, idän puolesta länteen.

4 Likin Naphtalin rajaa pitää Manassen osa oleman, idän puolesta länteen,

5 Likin Manassen rajaa pitää Ephraim osansa saaman, idän puolesta länteen.

6 Likin Ephraimin rajaa pitää Rubenin osa oleman, idän puolesta länteen.

7 Likin Rubenin rajaa pitää Juudan osan oleman, idän puolesta länteen.

8 Mutta likin Juudan rajaa pitää teidän eroittaman yhden osan idästä niin länteen, joka on viisikolmattakymmentä tuhatta riukua pitkä ja leveä, niinkuin muu osa on idästä niin länteen: siinä pitää pyhän oleman.

9 Ja siitä pitää teidän eroittaman uhriksi Herralle osan, viisikolmattakymmentä tuhatta riukua pitkän ja kymmenentuhatta riukua leveän.

10 Ja sen pyhän osan pitää pappein oleman, viisikolmattakymmentä tuhatta riukua pitkä, pohjoiseen ja etelään päin, ja kymmenentuhatta leveä, itään ja länteen päin. Ja Herran pyhän pitää siinä keskellä oleman.

11 Se pitää papeille pyhitetty oleman Zadokin lapsista, jotka minun säätyni pitäneet ovat, ja ei ole Israelin lasten kanssa luopuneet, niinkuin Leviläiset luopuivat.

12 Ja sentähden pitää heillä oleman oma osa eroitetusta maasta, se kaikkein pyhin, joka on Leviläisten rajan tykönä.

13 Mutta Leviläisillä pitää myös osa oleman, viisikolmattakymmenentuhatta leveä, pappein rajan tykönä; sillä kaikki pituus pitää oleman viisikolmattakymmentä tuhatta riukua ja leveys kymmenentuhatta riukua.

14 Ja ei pidä siitä mitään muutämän pois eikä vaihetettaman, ei myös maan uutisesta pidä mitään tuleman pois; sillä se on pyhitetty Herralle.

15 Mutta ne viisituhatta riukua, jotka jäävät leveydelle, viidestäkolmattakymmenestä tuhannesta riukumitasta pituudelle, pitää oleman kaupungille yhteiseksi asuinsijaksi ja esikaupungiksi; ja sen keskellä pitää kaupungin oleman.

16 Ja tämän pitää oleman hänen mittansa: neljätuhatta ja viisisataa riukua pohjoiseen ja lounaaseen päin, niin myös itään ja länteen päin neljätuhatta ja viisisataa.

17 Mutta esikaupunkia varten pitää oleman kaksisataa ja viisikymmentä riukua, pohjaan ja lounaan päin, niin myös itään ja länteen kaksisataa ja viisikymmentä riukua.

18 Mutta mitä jää pituudesta pyhän ylennysuhrin osan kohdalle, kymmenentuhatta riukua itään päin ja kymmenentuhatta riukua länteen päin, juuri pyhän ylennysuhrin osan kohdalla, sen sisälletulo pitää oleman kaupungin palvelioille elatukseksi.

19 Ja jotka kaupungissa palvelevat, ne pitää oleman kaikista Israelin sukukunnista.

20 Ja kaikista näistä eroitetuista osista, joka on molemmilta puolilta pituudelle ja leveydelle viisikolmattakymmentä tuhatta riukua, pitää teidän eroittaman neljännen osan; sen pitää kaupungin oman oleman.

21 Mutta mitä vielä jää molemmille puolille siitä eroitetusta pyhästä osasta ja kaupungin osasta, viisikolmattakymmentä tuhatta riukua sekä itään että länteen, se pitää päämiehen oma oleman; mutta pyhä maa, jossa pyhä huone on, pitää siitä eroitettu oleman.

22 Mutta mitä on Leviläisten osan ja kaupungin osan välillä, joka keskellä on, mitä jää Juudan ja Benjaminin rajan välille, se pitää päämiehen oma oleman.

23 Sitte pitää muut sukukunnat oleman: Benjaminin osa idän puolesta länteen.

24 Mutta Benjaminin rajan tykönä pitää Simeonin osa oleman idän puolesta länteen.

25 Simeoinin rajan vieressä pitää Isaskarin osan oleman, idän puolesta länteen.

26 Isaskarin rajalla pitää Zebulonin osan oleman, idän puolesta länteen.

27 Zebulonin rajalla pitää Gadin osan oleman, idästä länteen.

28 Mutta likin Gadia on lounaan raja, Temanin, Tamarista niin Kadeksen riitaveteen saakka, niin ojaan asti, joka isoon mereen juoksee.

29 Näin pitää maa jaettu oleman Israelin lasten sukukuntain perinnöksi; ja sen pitää oleman heidän osansa, sanoo Herra, Herra.

30 Ja näin leveltä pitää kaupungin oleman; neljätuhatta ja viisisataa riukua pohjoista päin.

31 Ja kaupungin portit pitää Israelin sukukuntain nimeltä nimitetyt oleman: kolme porttia pohjoista päin: ensimäinen Rubenin, toinen Juudan, kolmas Levin.

32 Niin myös itään päin neljätuhatta ja viisisataa riukua, ja kolme porttia: ensimäinen Josephin, toinen Benjaminin, kolmas Danin.

33 Etelään päin myös neljätuhatta ja viisisataa riukua, ja kolme porttia: ensimäinen Simeonin, toinen Isaskarin, kolmas Zebulonin.

34 Niin myös länteen päin neljätuhatta ja viisisataa riukua, ja kolme porttia: ensimmäinen portti Gadin, toinen Asserin, kolmas Naphtalin.

35 Näin pitää tämä kaikki ympäri oleman, kahdeksantoistakymmentä tuhatta riukua: ja niin pitää kaupunki tästä päivästä kutsuttaman: tässä on Herra.

The Lord#52

学习本章节

  
/65  
  

52. 6. Jehovah himself - that is, the Lord - spoke the Word through prophets.

We read of the prophets that they had visions and that Jehovah talked with them. When they had visions, they were not focused on their bodies but on the spirit, in which state they saw things of a heavenly nature. When Jehovah talked with them, though, they were conscious of their bodies and heard Jehovah speaking.

We need to draw a clear distinction between these two states. In a visionary state, the eyes of their spirit were open and the eyes of their body were closed; and at such times they seemed to themselves to be taken from place to place while their bodies stayed where they were. Ezekiel, Zechariah, and Daniel were in this state at times, and so was John when he wrote the Book of Revelation. They were then said to be in a vision or in the spirit. In fact, Ezekiel says,

The spirit lifted me up and brought me back into Chaldea, to the captivity, in a vision from God, in the spirit of God. In this way the vision that I saw came over me. (Ezekiel 11:1, 24)

He says that the spirit lifted him up and that he heard an earthquake and other things behind him (Ezekiel 3:12, 14). He also said that the spirit lifted him up between earth and heaven and took him off into Jerusalem in visions from God, and he saw abominations (Ezekiel 8:3 and following).

That is why (again in a vision of God or in the spirit) Ezekiel saw the four beasts that were angel guardians (chapters 1; 10), and he saw a new earth and a new temple with the angel measuring them, as we are told in chapters 40-48. He says in chapter 40:2, that he was then in visions from God; and in chapter 43:5, he says that the spirit lifted him up at that time.

The same thing happened with Zechariah. There was an angel inwardly present with him when he saw a man riding among myrtle trees (Zechariah 1:8 and following); when he saw four horns and then a man with a measuring line in his hand (Zechariah 1:18; 2:1); when he saw Joshua the high priest (Zechariah 3:1 and following); when he saw a lampstand and two olive trees (Zechariah 4:1 and following); when he saw a flying scroll and a measuring basket (Zechariah 5:1, 6); and when he saw four chariots coming from between two mountains, along with horses (Zechariah 6:1 and following).

Daniel was in the same kind of state when he saw four beasts come up from the sea (Daniel 7:3) and when he saw battles between a ram and a goat (Daniel 8:1 and following).

We read in Daniel 7:1-2, 7, 13; 8:2; 10:1, 7-8 that he saw these things in visions. We read in Daniel 9:21 that he saw the angel Gabriel in a vision and talked with him.

Much the same happened with John when he wrote the Book of Revelation. He says that he was in the spirit on the Lord’s day (Revelation 1:10), that he was carried away in the spirit into the wilderness (17:3), to a high mountain in the spirit (21:10), that he saw horses in a vision (9:17), and elsewhere that he saw what he described, being therefore in the spirit or in a vision (1:2; 4:1; 5:1; 6:1; and in the particular chapters that follow).

Ezekiel第40章

学习

   

1 In the five and twentieth year of our captivity, in the beginning of the year, in the tenth [day] of the month, in the fourteenth year after that the city was struck, in the same day, the hand of Yahweh was on me, and he brought me there.

2 In the visions of God brought he me into the land of Israel, and set me down on a very high mountain, whereon was as it were the frame of a city on the south.

3 He brought me there; and, behold, there was a man, whose appearance was like the appearance of brass, with a line of flax in his hand, and a measuring reed; and he stood in the gate.

4 The man said to me, Son of man, see with your eyes, and hear with your ears, and set your heart on all that I shall show you; for, to the intent that I may show them to you, you are brought here: declare all that you see to the house of Israel.

5 Behold, a wall on the outside of the house all around, and in the man's hand a measuring reed six cubits long, of a cubit and a handbreadth each: so he measured the thickness of the building, one reed; and the height, one reed.

6 Then came he to the gate which looks toward the east, and went up its steps: and he measured the threshold of the gate, one reed broad; and the other threshold, one reed broad.

7 Every lodge was one reed long, and one reed broad; and [the space] between the lodges was five cubits; and the threshold of the gate by the porch of the gate toward the house was one reed.

8 He measured also the porch of the gate toward the house, one reed.

9 Then measured he the porch of the gate, eight cubits; and its posts, two cubits; and the porch of the gate was toward the house.

10 The lodges of the gate eastward were three on this side, and three on that side; they three were of one measure: and the posts had one measure on this side and on that side.

11 He measured the breadth of the opening of the gate, ten cubits; and the length of the gate, thirteen cubits;

12 and a border before the lodges, one cubit [on this side], and a border, one cubit on that side; and the lodges, six cubits on this side, and six cubits on that side.

13 He measured the gate from the roof of the one lodge to the roof of the other, a breadth of twenty-five cubits; door against door.

14 He made also posts, sixty cubits; and the court [reached] to the posts, around the gate.

15 [From] the forefront of the gate at the entrance to the forefront of the inner porch of the gate were fifty cubits.

16 There were closed windows to the lodges, and to their posts within the gate all around, and likewise to the arches; and windows were around inward; and on [each] post were palm trees.

17 Then brought he me into the outer court; and behold, there were rooms and a pavement, made for the court all around: thirty rooms were on the pavement.

18 The pavement was by the side of the gates, answerable to the length of the gates, even the lower pavement.

19 Then he measured the breadth from the forefront of the lower gate to the forefront of the inner court outside, one hundred cubits, [both] on the east and on the north.

20 The gate of the outer court whose prospect is toward the north, he measured its length and its breadth.

21 The lodges of it were three on this side and three on that side; and its posts and its arches were after the measure of the first gate: its length was fifty cubits, and the breadth twenty-five cubits.

22 The windows of it, and its arches, and the palm trees of it, were after the measure of the gate whose prospect is toward the east; and they went up to it by seven steps; and its arches were before them.

23 There was a gate to the inner court over against the [other] gate, [both] on the north and on the east; and he measured from gate to gate one hundred cubits.

24 He led me toward the south; and behold, a gate toward the south: and he measured its posts and its arches according to these measures.

25 There were windows in it and in its arches all around, like those windows: the length was fifty cubits, and the breadth twenty-five cubits.

26 There were seven steps to go up to it, and its arches were before them; and it had palm trees, one on this side, and another on that side, on its posts.

27 There was a gate to the inner court toward the south: and he measured from gate to gate toward the south a hundred cubits.

28 Then he brought me to the inner court by the south gate: and he measured the south gate according to these measures;

29 and its lodges, and its posts, and its arches, according to these measures: and there were windows in it and in its arches all around; it was fifty cubits long, and twenty-five cubits broad.

30 There were arches all around, twenty-five cubits long, and five cubits broad.

31 The arches of it were toward the outer court; and palm trees were on its posts: and the ascent to it had eight steps.

32 He brought me into the inner court toward the east: and he measured the gate according to these measures;

33 and its lodges, and its posts, and its arches, according to these measures: and there were windows therein and in its arches all around; it was fifty cubits long, and twenty-five cubits broad.

34 The arches of it were toward the outer court; and palm trees were on its posts, on this side, and on that side: and the ascent to it had eight steps.

35 He brought me to the north gate: and he measured [it] according to these measures;

36 its lodges, its posts, and its arches: and there were windows therein all around; the length was fifty cubits, and the breadth twenty-five cubits.

37 The posts of it were toward the outer court; and palm trees were on its posts, on this side, and on that side: and the ascent to it had eight steps.

38 A room with its door was by the posts at the gates; there they washed the burnt offering.

39 In the porch of the gate were two tables on this side, and two tables on that side, to kill thereon the burnt offering and the sin offering and the trespass offering.

40 On the [one] side outside, as one goes up to the entry of the gate toward the north, were two tables; and on the other side, which belonged to the porch of the gate, were two tables.

41 Four tables were on this side, and Four tables on that side, by the side of the gate; eight tables, whereupon they killed [the sacrifices].

42 There were four tables for the burnt offering, of cut stone, a cubit and a half long, and a cubit and a half broad, and one cubit high; whereupon they laid the instruments with which they killed the burnt offering and the sacrifice.

43 The hooks, a handbreadth long, were fastened within all around: and on the tables was the flesh of the offering.

44 Outside of the inner gate were rooms for the singers in the inner court, which was at the side of the north gate; and their prospect was toward the south; one at the side of the east gate having the prospect toward the north.

45 He said to me, This room, whose prospect is toward the south, is for the priests, the keepers of the duty of the house;

46 and the room whose prospect is toward the north is for the priests, the keepers of the duty of the altar: these are the sons of Zadok, who from among the sons of Levi come near to Yahweh to minister to him.

47 He measured the court, one hundred cubits long, and a hundred cubits broad, foursquare; and the altar was before the house.

48 Then he brought me to the porch of the house, and measured each post of the porch, five cubits on this side, and five cubits on that side: and the breadth of the gate was three cubits on this side, and three cubits on that side.

49 The length of the porch was twenty cubits, and the breadth eleven cubits; even by the steps by which they went up to it: and there were pillars by the posts, one on this side, and another on that side.
