学习

   

1 Und Israel brach auf und alles, was er hatte, und kam nach Beerseba; und er opferte Schlachtopfer dem Gott seines Vaters Isaak.

2 Und Gott sprach zu Israel in den Gesichten der Nacht und sagte: Jakob! Jakob! Und er sprach: Hier bin ich.

3 Und er sprach: Ich bin Gott, der Gott deines Vaters; fürchte dich nicht, nach Ägypten hinabzuziehen; denn zu einer großen Nation will ich dich daselbst machen.

4 Ich will mit dir nach Ägypten hinabziehen, und ich will dich auch gewißlich heraufführen; und Joseph soll seine Hand auf deine Augen legen.

5 Da machte sich Jakob von Beerseba auf, und die Söhne Israels führten Jakob, ihren Vater, und ihre Kinder und ihre Weiber auf den Wagen, die der Pharao gesandt hatte, ihn zu holen.

6 Und sie nahmen ihr Vieh und ihre Habe, die sie im Lande Kanaan erworben hatten, und kamen nach Ägypten, Jakob und all sein Same mit ihm:

7 seine Söhne und die Söhne seiner Söhne mit ihm, seine Töchter und die Töchter seiner Söhne, und all seinen Samen brachte er mit sich nach Ägypten.

8 Und dies sind die Namen der Söhne Israels, die nach Ägypten kamen: Jakob und seine Söhne; der Erstgeborene Jakobs: Ruben.

9 Und die Söhne Rubens: Hanok und Pallu und Hezron und Karmi.

10 Und die Söhne Simeons: Jemuel und Jamin und Ohad und Jakin und Zochar und Saul, der Sohn der Kanaaniterin.

11 Und die Söhne Levis: Gerson, Kehath und Merari.

12 Und die Söhne Judas: Gher und Onan und Schela und Perez und Serach; Gher und Onan aber starben im Lande Kanaan. Und die Söhne des Perez waren Hezron und Hamul.

13 Und die Söhne Issaschars: Tola und Puwa und Job und Schimron.

14 Und die Söhne Sebulons: Sered und Elon und Jachleel.

15 Das sind die Söhne Leas, welche sie dem Jakob in Paddan-Aram gebar, und Dina, seine Tochter. Aller Seelen seiner Söhne und seiner Töchter waren dreiunddreißig. -

16 Und die Söhne Gads: Ziphjon und Haggi, Schuni und Ezbon, Eri und Arodi und Areli.

17 Und die Söhne Asers: Jimna und Jischwa und Jischwi und Beria, und Serach, ihre Schwester. Und die Söhne Berias: Heber und Malkiel.

18 Das sind die Söhne Silpas, die Laban seiner Tochter Lea gab; und sie gebar diese dem Jakob, sechzehn Seelen. -

19 Die Söhne Rahels, des Weibes Jakobs: Joseph und Benjamin.

20 Und dem Joseph wurden im Lande Ägypten Manasse und Ephraim geboren, welche Asnath ihm gebar, die Tochter Potipheras, des Priesters von On.

21 Und die Söhne Benjamins: Bela und Beker und Aschbel, Gera und Naaman, Echi und Rosch, Muppim und Huppim und Ard.

22 Das sind die Söhne Rahels, die dem Jakob geboren wurden; aller Seelen waren vierzehn. -

23 Und die Söhne Dans: Huschim.

24 Und die Söhne Naphtalis: Jachzeel und Guni und Jezer und Schillem.

25 Das sind die Söhne Bilhas, die Laban seiner Tochter Rahel gab; und sie gebar diese dem Jakob; aller Seelen waren sieben. -

26 Aller dem Jakob angehörenden Seelen, die nach Ägypten kamen, die aus seinen Lenden hervorgegangen waren, ausgenommen die Weiber der Söhne Jakobs, aller Seelen waren sechsundsechzig.

27 Und die Söhne Josephs, die ihm in Ägypten geboren wurden, waren zwei Seelen. Aller Seelen des Hauses Jakob, die nach Ägypten kamen, waren siebzig.

28 Und er sandte Juda vor sich hin zu Joseph, um vor ihm her zu weisen nach Gosen; und sie kamen in das Land Gosen.

29 Da spannte Joseph seinen Wagen an und zog hinauf, seinem Vater Israel entgegen nach Gosen; und als er seiner ansichtig wurde, fiel er ihm um den Hals und weinte lange an seinem Halse.

30 Und Israel sprach zu Joseph: Nunmehr mag ich sterben, nachdem ich dein Angesicht gesehen habe, daß du noch lebst!

31 Und Joseph sprach zu seinen Brüdern und zum Hause seines Vaters: Ich will hinaufziehen und dem Pharao berichten und zu ihm sagen: Meine Brüder und das Haus meines Vaters, die im Lande Kanaan waren, sind zu mir gekommen.

32 Und die Männer sind Schafhirten, denn sie haben Viehzucht getrieben; und sie haben ihr Kleinvieh und ihre Rinder und alles, was sie haben, mitgebracht.

33 Und geschieht es, daß der Pharao euch ruft und spricht: Was ist eure Hantierung?

34 so saget: Deine Knechte haben Viehzucht getrieben, von Jugend auf bis jetzt, sowohl wir als auch unsere Väter, auf daß ihr wohnen möget im Lande Gosen; denn alle Schafhirten sind den Ägyptern ein Greuel.

6040. 'And Joseph said to his brothers' means a perception by the truths in the natural. This is clear from the meaning of 'saying' as perception, dealt with often; from the representation of 'the sons of Israel' as spiritual truths within the natural, dealt with in 5414, 5879; and from the representation of 'Joseph' as the internal celestial, dealt with in 5869, 5877. From this it is evident that 'Joseph said to his brothers' means a perception by the truths in the natural which was received from the internal celestial. The reason 'Joseph said' does not mean a perception by him is that Joseph is the internal and all perception flows by way of the internal into the external or natural. By itself the natural does not perceive anything whatever but receives its perceptions from what is prior to itself. Yet what is prior does not perceive by itself but from what is yet prior to it, so that finally perception is received from the Lord, who has uncreated Being. Such is the nature of influx and consequently of perception. The situation with influx is like coming into being and remaining in being. Nothing comes into being by itself but from what is prior to itself, so that finally everything comes from Him who is First, that is, whose Being (Esse) and Manifestation (Existere) are uncreated. Everything is also kept in being by Him who is First, for the same applies to remaining in being as to coming into being, since remaining in being is constant coming into being.

[2] The reason why the expression 'a perception by the truths in the natural' is used and not a perception by people in possession of those truths is that spiritual language employs that kind of expression. For such a usage draws the ideas composing one's thought away from persons and fixes them on spiritual realities; and those realities, which are truths and forms of good, are what possess life in a person and cause him to have life. For those realities are derived from the Lord, the Source of life in its entirety. That kind of usage also leads one's mind away from ascribing truths and forms of good to a person. Such spiritual language also enables one to form an overall idea that extends further and wider than when the idea of a person is tied up with it. If for example one speaks of perception by people in possession of truths in the natural one's ideas become fixed at the same time on people like that - a common occurrence - and so one's ideas are drawn away from the overall idea, with the result that the light of truth is diminished. Furthermore, in the next life thought about persons disturbs such persons, for in that life all thought is communicated. These are the reasons why impersonal expressions like the one here - 'a perception by the truths in the natural' are used.

Genesis第46章

1 Israel traveled with all that he had, and came to Beersheba, and offered sacrifices to the God of his father, Isaac.

2 God spoke to Israel in the visions of the night, and said, "Jacob, Jacob!" He said, "Here I am."

3 He said, "I am God, the God of your father. Don't be afraid to go down into Egypt, for there I will make of you a great nation.

4 I will go down with you into Egypt. I will also surely bring you up again. Joseph will close your eyes."

5 Jacob rose up from Beersheba, and the sons of Israel carried Jacob, their father, their little ones, and their wives, in the wagons which Pharaoh had sent to carry him.

6 They took their livestock, and their goods, which they had gotten in the land of Canaan, and came into Egypt--Jacob, and all his seed with him,

7 his sons, and his sons' sons with him, his daughters, and his sons' daughters, and he brought all his seed with him into Egypt.

8 These are the names of the children of Israel, who came into Egypt, Jacob and his sons: Reuben, Jacob's firstborn.

9 The sons of Reuben: Hanoch, Pallu, Hezron, and Carmi.

10 The sons of Simeon: Jemuel, Jamin, Ohad, Jachin, Zohar, and Shaul the son of a Canaanite woman.

11 The sons of Levi: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.

12 The sons of Judah: Er, Onan, Shelah, Perez, and Zerah; but Er and Onan died in the land of Canaan. The sons of Perez were Hezron and Hamul.

13 The sons of Issachar: Tola, Puvah, Iob, and Shimron.

14 The sons of Zebulun: Sered, Elon, and Jahleel.

15 These are the sons of Leah, whom she bore to Jacob in Paddan Aram, with his daughter Dinah. All the souls of his sons and his daughters were thirty-three.

16 The sons of Gad: Ziphion, Haggi, Shuni, Ezbon, Eri, Arodi, and Areli.

17 The sons of Asher: Imnah, Ishvah, Ishvi, Beriah, and Serah their sister. The sons of Beriah: Heber and Malchiel.

18 These are the sons of Zilpah, whom Laban gave to Leah, his daughter, and these she bore to Jacob, even sixteen souls.

19 The sons of Rachel, Jacob's wife: Joseph and Benjamin.

20 To Joseph in the land of Egypt were born Manasseh and Ephraim, whom Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera, priest of On, bore to him.

21 The sons of Benjamin: Bela, Becher, Ashbel, Gera, Naaman, Ehi, Rosh, Muppim, Huppim, and Ard.

22 These are the sons of Rachel, who were born to Jacob: all the souls were fourteen.

23 The son of Dan: Hushim.

24 The sons of Naphtali: Jahzeel, Guni, Jezer, and Shillem.

25 These are the sons of Bilhah, whom Laban gave to Rachel, his daughter, and these she bore to Jacob: all the souls were seven.

26 All the souls who came with Jacob into Egypt, who were his direct descendants, besides Jacob's sons' wives, all the souls were sixty-six.

27 The sons of Joseph, who were born to him in Egypt, were two souls. All the souls of the house of Jacob, who came into Egypt, were seventy.

28 He sent Judah before him to Joseph, to show the way before him to Goshen, and they came into the land of Goshen.

29 Joseph prepared his chariot, and went up to meet Israel, his father, in Goshen. He presented himself to him, and fell on his neck, and wept on his neck a good while.

30 Israel said to Joseph, "Now let me die, since I have seen your face, that you are still alive."

31 Joseph said to his brothers, and to his father's house, "I will go up, and speak with Pharaoh, and will tell him, 'My brothers, and my father's house, who were in the land of Canaan, have come to me.

32 These men are shepherds, for they have been keepers of livestock, and they have brought their flocks, and their herds, and all that they have.'

33 It will happen, when Pharaoh summons you, and will say, 'What is your occupation?'

34 that you shall say, 'Your servants have been keepers of livestock from our youth even until now, both we, and our fathers:' that you may dwell in the land of Goshen; for every shepherd is an abomination to the Egyptians."
