学习

   

1 Or, en ce temps-là Michaël, ce grand Chef qui tient ferme pour les enfants de ton peuple, tiendra ferme; et ce sera un temps de détresse, tel qu'il n'y en a point eu depuis qu'il y a eu des nations, jusqu'à ce temps-là; et en ce temps-là ton peuple, [c'est à savoir], quiconque sera trouvé écrit dans le Livre, échappera.

2 Et plusieurs de ceux qui dorment dans la poussière de la terre se réveilleront, les uns pour la vie éternelle, et les autres pour les opprobres et pour l'infamie éternelle.

3 Et ceux qui auront été intelligents, luiront comme la splendeur de l'étendue; et ceux qui en auront amené plusieurs à la justice [luiront] comme des étoiles, à toujours et à perpétuité.

4 Mais toi, Daniel, ferme ces paroles, et cachette ce Livre jusqu'au temps déterminé, [auquel] plusieurs courront, et la science sera augmentée.

5 Alors moi Daniel je regardai; et voici, deux autres se tenaient debout, l'un en deçà, sur le bord du fleuve, et l'autre au delà, sur le bord du fleuve.

6 Et on dit à l'homme vêtu de lin qui était au-dessus des eaux du fleuve : Quand est-ce que sera la fin de [ces] merveilles?

7 Et j'entendis l'homme vêtu de lin, qui était au-dessus des eaux du fleuve, lequel ayant élevé sa main droite et sa main gauche vers les cieux, jura par celui qui vit éternellement, que ce sera jusqu'à un temps, à des temps, et une moitié [de temps]; et quand il aura achevé de disperser la force du peuple saint, toutes ces choses-là seront accomplies.

8 Ce que j'ouïs bien, mais je ne l'entendis point; et je dis : Mon Seigneur, quelle sera l'issue de ces choses?

9 Et il dit : Va, Daniel, car ces paroles sont closes et cachetées jusqu'au temps déterminé.

10 Il y en aura plusieurs qui seront nettoyés et blanchis, et rendus éprouvés; mais les méchants agiront méchamment, et pas un des méchants n'aura de l'intelligence, mais les intelligents comprendront.

11 Or depuis le temps que le sacrifice continuel aura été ôté, et qu'on aura mis l'abomination de la désolation, il y aura mille deux cent quatre-vingt-dix jours.

12 Heureux celui qui attendra, et qui parviendra jusques à mille trois cent trente-cinq jours.

13 Mais toi, va à [ta] fin; néanmoins tu te reposeras, et demeureras dans ton état jusqu'à la fin de [tes] jours.

37. 9. From the Old Testament

God hath revealed what shall come to pass in the latter days (Daniel 2:28).

(The consummation of the church from its first foundation to its end is described by the image seen by Nebuchadnezzar, in like manner as the four ages by the ancients; the first, which was before the flood, by gold; the second, after the flood, by silver; the third, which was the Israelitish up to that time, by brass; and the fourth, which was the Christian, by iron mixed with clay (Daniel 2:32-33).

By "gold" is signified celestial good; by "silver" spiritual truth; by "brass" natural good; by "iron" natural truth; and by "iron mixed with clay" truth falsified, because it does not cleave together; by the seed of man the truth of the Word, which is also said of the feet of iron (Daniel 2:34-43).)

(A stone which was not [made] by hands, which smote and ground up the image, and which became a great rock, signifies the Lord, who in the Word is meant by "a stone" and by "the rock" which filled all the earth, whose kingdom shall stand for ages of ages (Daniel 2:34-35, 44-45).)

The fourth, seen in the furnace of fire, is said to be like the Son of man. It is not said man, because the Son of man signifies the Lord as to the Word; and this is also called an angel, whom God sent (Daniel 3:25, 28).

The "Son of man" when said of another, and a "prophet," signify Him as the truth of the church from the Word.

The consummation is also described by the tree growing to the end of the earth seen by Nebuchadnezzar, in a dream; and the coming of the Lord, by the Watcher and the Holy One who descended and commanded to hew down the tree utterly; and that they left the stump of the roots in the earth in a band of iron and of brass, signifies the Word by which the church revived; this also happened in the time of Nebuchadnezzar (Daniel 4:10-13, 17-31). The consummation of the whole, or the destruction of all things of the church, is described by the feast of Belshazzar, in which with magnates and concubines he drank the wine out of vessels of gold and silver from the temple of Jerusalem, and praised the gods of gold, of silver, etc., by which is signified the profanation of the holy things of the church, wherefore it was written on the wall that his kingdom was finished, and he was slain on that night (Daniel 5:1 to end).

(The consummation of the church is described by the four beasts out of the sea; also what the first was, what the second, third, and fourth, which was terrible because it broke in pieces all things of good and truth. What they signify may be seen in Apocalypse Revealed574. The complete consummation is meant by the slaying of the beast and the destruction of the body. That then the Lord will come and will reign unto ages of ages is evident from verses 13-14, 22, 27. His church is meant by the holy people, because they are in Divine truths from the Lord (Daniel 7:1 to end).
