1 Και με επεστρεψεν εις την θυραν του οικου· και ιδου, υδατα εξερχομενα κατωθεν απο του κατωφλιου του οικου προς ανατολας· διοτι το μετωπον του οικου ητο προς ανατολας, και τα υδατα κατεβαινον κατωθεν απο του δεξιου πλαγιου του οικου, κατα το νοτιον του θυσιαστηριου.

2 Και με εξηγαγε δια της οδου της πυλης της προς βορραν και με εφερε κυκλω δια της εξωθεν οδου προς την πυλην την εξωτεραν, δια της οδου της βλεπουσης προς ανατολας· και ιδου, τα υδατα ερρεον απο του δεξιου πλαγιου.

3 Και ο ανθρωπος, οστις ειχε το μετρον εν τη χειρι αυτου, εξελθων προς ανατολας εμετρησε χιλιας πηχας και με διεβιβασε δια των υδατων· τα υδατα ησαν εως των αστραγαλων.

4 Και εμετρησε χιλιας και με διεβιβασε δια των υδατων· τα υδατα ησαν εως των γονατων. Παλιν εμετρησε χιλιας και με διεβιβασε· τα υδατα ησαν εως της οσφυος.

5 Επειτα εμετρησε χιλιας· και ητο ποταμος, τον οποιον δεν ηδυναμην να διαβω, διοτι τα υδατα ησαν υψωμενα, υδατα κολυμβηματος, ποταμος αδιαβατος.

6 Και ειπε προς εμε, Ειδες, υιε ανθρωπου; Τοτε με εφερε και με επεστρεψεν εις το χειλος του ποταμου.

7 Και οτε επεστρεψα, ιδου, κατα το χειλος του ποταμου δενδρα πολλα σφοδρα, εντευθεν και εντευθεν.

8 Και ειπε προς εμε, τα υδατα ταυτα εξερχονται προς την ανατολικην γην και καταβαινουσιν εις την πεδινην και εισερχονται εις την θαλασσαν· και οταν εκχυθωσιν εις την θαλασσαν, τα υδατα αυτης θελουσιν ιαθη.

9 Και παν εμψυχον ερπον, εις οσα μερη ηθελον επελθει ουτοι οι ποταμοι, θελει ζη· και θελει εισθαι εκει πληθος ιχθυων πολυ σφοδρα, επειδη τα υδατα ταυτα ερχονται εκει· διοτι θελουσιν ιαθη· και θελουσι ζη τα παντα, οπου ο ποταμος ερχεται.

10 Και οι αλιεις θελουσιν ιστασθαι επ' αυτην απο Εν-γαδδι εως Εν-εγλαιμ· εκει θελουσιν εξαπλονει τα δικτυα· οι ιχθυες αυτων θελουσιν εισθαι κατα τα ειδη αυτων ως οι ιχθυες της μεγαλης θαλασσης, πολλοι σφοδρα.

11 Οι ελωδεις ομως τοποι αυτης και οι βαλτωδεις αυτης δεν θελουσιν ιαθη· θελουσιν εισθαι διωρισμενοι δια αλας.

12 Πλησιον δε του ποταμου επι του χειλους αυτου, εντευθεν και εντευθεν, θελουσιν αυξανεσθαι δενδρα παντος ειδους δια τροφην, των οποιων τα φυλλα δεν θελουσι μαραινεσθαι και ο καρπος αυτων δεν θελει εκλειψει· νεος καρπος θελει γεννασθαι καθ' εκαστον μηνα, διοτι τα υδατα αυτου εξερχονται απο του αγιαστηριου· και ο καρπος αυτων θελει εισθαι δια τροφην και το φυλλον αυτων δια ιατρειαν.

13 Ουτω λεγει Κυριος ο Θεος· ταυτα θελουσιν εισθαι τα ορια, δια των οποιων θελετε κληρονομησει την γην κατα τας δωδεκα φυλας του Ισραηλ· ο Ιωσηφ θελει εχει δυο μεριδας.

14 Σεις δε θελετε κληρονομησει αυτην, εκαστος καθως ο αδελφος αυτου· περι της οποιας υψωσα την χειρα μου οτι θελω δωσει αυτην εις τους πατερας σας· και η γη αυτη θελει κληρωθη εις εσας εις κληρονομιαν.

15 Και τουτο θελει εισθαι το οριον της γης προς το βορειον πλαγιον, απο της θαλασσης της μεγαλης, κατα την οδον της Εθλων, καθως υπαγει τις εις Σεδαδ,

16 Αιμαθ, Βηρωθα, Σιβραιμ, ητις ειναι αναμεσον του οριου της Δαμασκου και του οριου της Αιμαθ, Ασαρ-αττιχων, η πλησιον των οριων της Αυραν.

17 Και το οριον απο της θαλασσης θελει εισθαι Ασαρ-εναν, το οριον της Δαμασκου, και το βορειον το κατα βορραν, και το οριον της Αιμαθ. Και τουτο ειναι το βορειον πλευρον.

18 Το δε ανατολικον πλευρον θελετε μετρησει απο Αυραν και απο Δαμασκου και απο Γαλααδ και απο της γης του Ισραηλ κατα τον Ιορδανην, απο του οριου του προς την θαλασσαν την ανατολικην. Και τουτο ειναι το ανατολικον πλευρον.

19 Το δε μεσημβρινον πλευρον προς νοτον, απο Θαμαρ εως των υδατων της Μεριβα Καδης, κατα την εκτασιν του χειμαρρου εως της μεγαλης θαλασσης. Και τουτο ειναι το νοτιον πλευρον προς μεσημβριαν.

20 Το δε δυτικον πλευρον θελει εισθαι η μεγαλη θαλασσα απο του οριου, εωσου ελθη τις κατεναντι της Αιμαθ. Τουτο ειναι το δυτικον πλευρον.

21 Ουτω θελετε διαιρεσει την γην ταυτην μεταξυ σας κατα τας φυλας του Ισραηλ.

22 Και θελετε κληρωσει αυτην εις εαυτους δια κληρονομιαν, μετα των ξενων των παροικουντων μεταξυ σας, οσοι γεννησωσιν υιους εν μεσω σας· και θελουσιν εισθαι εις εσας ως αυτοχθονες μεταξυ των υιων Ισραηλ· θελουσιν εχει μεθ' υμων κληρονομιαν μεταξυ των φυλων Ισραηλ.

23 Και εις ην τινα φυλην παροικη ο ξενος, εκει θελετε δωσει εις αυτον την κληρονομιαν αυτου, λεγει Κυριος ο Θεος.

180. (Verse 29) He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. That this signifies that he who understands should hearken to what Divine truth proceeding from the Lord teaches and says to those who belong to His church, is evident from what was said and shown above (n. 108), where similar things are said.

6426. 'From there is the shepherd, the stone of Israel' means that from this springs all the goodness and truth which the spiritual kingdom possesses. This is clear from the meaning of 'the shepherd' as one who leads to the good of charity by means of the truth of faith, dealt with in 343, 3795, 6044 (here in the highest sense, since it has reference to the Lord, goodness and truth themselves are meant); from the meaning of 'the stone' as truth, dealt with in 1298, 3720, 3769, 3771, 3773, 3789, 3798; and from the representation of 'Israel' as the spiritual Church, dealt with in 3305, 4286, for 'Israel' is spiritual good or the good of truth, 4286, 4598, 5801, 5803, 5806, 5812, 5817, 5819, 5826, 5833. And since the good of truth is the essential element of the spiritual Church, 'Israel' means the spiritual Church, and in the highest sense the Lord's spiritual kingdom. From all this it is evident that 'from there is the shepherd, the stone of Israel' means that from this springs all the goodness and truth which the Lord's spiritual kingdom possesses.

[2] The reason why in the highest sense 'the stone of Israel' means the Lord with respect to the truth that His spiritual kingdom possesses is that in general 'the stone' means the temple, and specifically the foundation on which it stands. 'The temple' in turn means the Lord's Divine Human, as is clear in John 2:19, 21, and so does its 'foundation' in Matthew 21:42, 44, and in Isaiah 28:16. This meaning of 'the stone' in the highest sense - the Lord in respect to Divine Truth which His spiritual kingdom possesses - is evident in David,

The stone which the builders rejected has become the head of the corner. This has been done by Jehovah; it is marvellous in our eyes. Psalms 118:22-23.

'The stone' here is the Lord, as is made clear in Luke,

It is written, The stone which the builders rejected has become the head of the corner. Whoever falls onto that stone will be broken to pieces; but on whomever it falls, it will grind him to powder. Luke 20:17-18.

These things are spoken by the Lord regarding Himself. In Isaiah,

He is your fear, and He is your dread; for He will be a sanctuary, though He will be a stone to strike against and a rock to stumble over 1 for both houses of Israel. Many among them will trip, and fall, and be broken to pieces. Isaiah 8:13-15.

Here the Lord is referred to. In the same prophet,

The Lord Jehovih said, Behold I [am He who] will lay in Zion a stone for a foundation, a tested stone, a precious corner-stone, surely founded. He who believes will not be hasty. Isaiah 28:16.

In Zechariah,

Jehovah Zebaoth will visit His flock, the house of Judah, and will place them as His glorious horse 2 in battle. From Him comes the corner-stone, from Him the tent-peg, from Him the battle-bow. Zechariah 10:3-4.

[3] In Daniel,

You were watching, until a stone was cut out, not by means of hands, and it struck the statue on its feet, which were iron and clay, and smashed them to pieces. The stone that struck the statue became a great rock and filled the whole earth. The God of heaven will cause a kingdom to arise that will never be destroyed, and His kingdom will not be left to other people; it will crush and consume all those kingdoms, but will itself stand for ever. Inasmuch as you saw that the stone was cut out of the rock, not by means of hands, and it smashed the iron, the bronze, the clay, the silver, and the gold . . . Daniel 2:34-35, 44-45.

Here 'the stone' is used in the highest sense to mean the Lord, and in the relative sense to mean His spiritual kingdom. When it says that 'the stone was cut out of the rock' the meaning is that it came out of the truth of faith, for the truth of faith is meant in the Word by 'rock'. And because the truth of faith is meant by 'the stone' and 'the rock', the Lord's spiritual kingdom is also what is meant, since the truth of faith and good ensuing from this truth prevail in that kingdom. Something similar is also meant by 'the stone' on which Jacob slept and which he afterwards set up as a pillar, described as follows,

Jacob awoke from his sleep and said, Surely Jehovah is in this place and I did not know it. And he was afraid and said, How awesome is this place! This is nothing other than the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven. And in the morning Jacob rose up early, and took the stone which he had placed as his headrest, and placed it as a pillar and poured oil on the top of it. He said, This stone which I have placed as a pillar will be God's house. Genesis 28:16-18, 22.

The fact that by 'the stone' the ancients understood the Lord in the highest sense and His spiritual kingdom in the relative sense is also plain to see in Joshua,

Joshua erected the stone under the oak which was in Jehovah's sanctuary. And Joshua said to all the people, Behold, this stone will be a witness to us, for it has heard all the sayings of Jehovah which He spoke to us. And it shall be a witness against you, lest you deny your God. Joshua 24:26, 17.
