2 Mosebok第16章

学习

   

1 Så brøt de op fra Elim, og den femtende dag i den annen måned efterat de hadde draget ut av Egyptens land, kom hele Israels barns menighet til ørkenen Sin, som ligger mellem Elim og Sinai.

2 Og hele Israels barns menighet knurret mot Moses og Aron i ørkenen.

3 Og Israels barn sa til dem: Å, om vi var død for Herrens hånd i Egyptens land da vi satt ved kjøttgrytene, og da vi åt brød til vi blev mette! For I har ført oss hit ut i ørkenen for å la hele denne store folkeskare av hunger.

4 Da sa Herren til Moses: Se, jeg vil la regne ned brød fra himmelen til eder, og folket skal ut og sanke for hver dag det de trenger; således vil jeg prøve dem, om de vil følge min lov eller ikke.

5 Og på den sjette dag skal de lage til det som de har hatt med hjem, og det skal være dobbelt så meget som det de ellers sanker for hver dag.

6 Og Moses og Aron sa til alle Israels barn: Iaften skal I kjenne at det er Herren som har ført eder ut av Egyptens land,

7 og imorgen skal I få se Herrens herlighet, fordi han har hørt hvorledes I knurrer mot ham; for hvad er vi, at I knurrer mot oss?

8 sa Moses: I skal få se det når Herren iaften gir eder kjøtt å ete og imorgen brød, så I blir mette; for Herren har hørt hvorledes I knurrer og murrer mot ham; for hvad er vel vi? Det er ikke mot oss I knurrer, men mot Herren.

9 Og Moses sa til Aron: Si til hele Israels barns menighet: Kom frem for Herrens åsyn; for han har hørt hvorledes I knurrer.

10 Da så Aron talte til hele Israels barns menighet, vendte de sig mot ørkenen, og se, Herrens herlighet åpenbarte sig i skyen.

11 Og Herren talte til Moses og sa:

12 Jeg har hørt hvorledes Israels barn knurrer; tal til dem og si: Imellem de to aftenstunder* skal I få kjøtt å ete, og imorgen skal I mettes med brød, og I skal kjenne at jeg er Herren eders Gud. / {* se 2MO 12, 6.}

13 Da det nu blev aften, kom det vaktler og dekket leiren, og om morgenen var det et lag av dugg rundt omkring leiren.

14 Og da duggen gikk bort, se, da lå det utover ørkenen noget fint, kornet, fint som rim på jorden.

15 Da Israels barn så det, sa de til hverandre: Hvad er det? for de visste ikke hvad det var. Da sa Moses til dem: Det er det brød Herren har gitt eder å ete.

16 Således har Herren befalt: Sank av det efter som enhver trenger, en omer til manns efter tallet på eders husfolk; enhver skal ta for dem som er i hans telt.

17 Og Israels barn gjorde således, og de sanket, den ene meget, den andre lite.

18 Og da de målte det med omeren, hadde den som hadde sanket meget, intet tilovers, og den som hadde sanket lite, fattedes intet; enhver hadde sanket efter som han trengte.

19 Og Moses sa til dem: Ingen skal levne noget av det til om morgenen.

20 Men de lød ikke Moses, for nogen levnet noget av det til om morgenen; da vokste det makk i det, og det luktet ille. Og Moses blev vred på dem.

21 Siden sanket de det hver morgen efter som enhver trengte; men når solen brente hett, smeltet det.

22 På den sjette dag sanket de dobbelt så meget brød, to omer for hver; og alle menighetens høvdinger kom og meldte det til Moses.

23 Da sa han til dem: Det er det Herren har sagt. Imorgen er det sabbat, hellig sabbat for Herren; bak nu det I vil bake, og kok det I vil koke, men alt det som blir tilovers, skal I legge til side og gjemme til imorgen!

24 Så lot de det ligge til om morgenen, således som Moses hadde befalt; og det luktet ikke, heller ikke var det makk i det.

25 Da sa Moses: Et det idag. For idag er det sabbat for Herren; idag finner I ikke noget på marken.

26 I seks dager skal I sanke det; men på den syvende dag er det sabbat, da skal det ikke være å finne.

27 Allikevel gikk nogen av folket ut den syvende dag for å sanke; men de fant intet.

28 Da sa Herren til Moses: Hvor lenge vil I være gjenstridige og ikke holde mine bud og mine lover?

29 Kom i hu at Herren har gitt eder sabbaten; derfor gir han eder på den sjette dag brød for to dager; bli hjemme enhver hos sig, ingen gå hjemmefra på den syvende dag!

30 Så hvilte folket på den syvende dag.

31 Og israelittene kalte det manna*; det lignet korianderfrø, det var hvitt, og det smakte som honningkake. / {* hebr. man, d.e. hvad er det?.}

32 Og Moses sa: Således har Herren befalt: Fyll en omer av det og gjem det for eders efterkommere, så de kan se det brød jeg gav eder å ete i ørkenen da jeg førte eder ut av Egyptens land.

33 sa Moses til Aron: Ta en krukke og legg i den en full omer manna, og sett den ned for Herrens åsyn til å gjemmes for eders efterkommere!

34 Som Herren hadde befalt Moses, således satte Aron den ned foran vidnesbyrdet* til å gjemmes. / {* lovens tavler.}

35 Og Israels barn åt manna i firti år, inntil de kom til bygget land; de åt manna helt til de kom til grensen av Kana'ans land.

36 En omer er tiendedelen av en efa.

8497. 'And all that is left over put aside for yourselves to keep until the morning' means the enjoyment of all goodness and truth then as if from what was their own. This is clear from the meaning of 'putting aside what is left over till the morning' as enjoyment on the sabbath day, the reason why the enjoyment of goodness and truth is meant being that they were to put aside what was left over from the things they baked and boiled and to eat it on that day ('baking' means the preparation of good, and 'boiling' the preparation of truth, as has been shown immediately above in 8496, and 'eating' means enjoying and making one's own, 3168, 3513 (end), 3596, 3832, 4745, 7849); and from the meaning of 'for yourselves to keep' as, as if it - the enjoyment - was from what was their own. The reason why these things are meant by those words is that goodness and truth which flow in from the Lord are joined together and so to speak made the person's own. This is what the joining of heaven, that is, of those in heaven, to the Lord is like. The words 'as if from what was their own' are used because the good of faith and charity can never be imparted to man or angel to be actually his own, for men and angels are merely recipients, or forms properly adjusted to receive life from the Lord, and so goodness and truth from Him. True life comes from no other source; and since life comes from the Lord it cannot be more than what seems to be a person's own. Those who abide in the Lord however clearly perceive that life flows in, consequently that goodness and truth do so since these are contained in that life. The reason why life seems to be a person's own is that in His Divine Love the Lord wishes to impart and join to a person all that is His, and so far as it can be done He does join it. What is then the person's own, yet is imparted to him by the Lord, is called a heavenly self or proprium, see 731, 1937, 1947, 2882, 2883, 2891, 3812 (end), 5660.

Exodus第16章

学习

   

1 They took their journey from Elim, and all the congregation of the children of Israel came to the wilderness of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month after their departing out of the land of Egypt.

2 The whole congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron in the wilderness;

3 and the children of Israel said to them, "We wish that we had died by the hand of Yahweh in the land of Egypt, when we sat by the meat pots, when we ate our fill of bread, for you have brought us out into this wilderness, to kill this whole assembly with hunger."

4 Then Yahweh said to Moses, "Behold, I will rain bread from the sky for you, and the people shall go out and gather a day's portion every day, that I may test them, whether they will walk in my law, or not.

5 It shall come to pass on the sixth day, that they shall prepare that which they bring in, and it shall be twice as much as they gather daily."

6 Moses and Aaron said to all the children of Israel, "At evening, then you shall know that Yahweh has brought you out from the land of Egypt;

7 and in the morning, then you shall see the glory of Yahweh; because he hears your murmurings against Yahweh. Who are we, that you murmur against us?"

8 Moses said, "Now Yahweh shall give you meat to eat in the evening, and in the morning bread to satisfy you; because Yahweh hears your murmurings which you murmur against him. And who are we? Your murmurings are not against us, but against Yahweh."

9 Moses said to Aaron, "Tell all the congregation of the children of Israel, 'Come near before Yahweh, for he has heard your murmurings.'"

10 It happened, as Aaron spoke to the whole congregation of the children of Israel, that they looked toward the wilderness, and behold, the glory of Yahweh appeared in the cloud.

11 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

12 "I have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel. Speak to them, saying, 'At evening you shall eat meat, and in the morning you shall be filled with bread: and you shall know that I am Yahweh your God.'"

13 It happened at evening that quail came up and covered the camp; and in the morning the dew lay around the camp.

14 When the dew that lay had gone, behold, on the surface of the wilderness was a small round thing, small as the frost on the ground.

15 When the children of Israel saw it, they said one to another, "What is it?" For they didn't know what it was. Moses said to them, "It is the bread which Yahweh has given you to eat."

16 This is the thing which Yahweh has commanded: "Gather of it everyone according to his eating; an omer a head, according to the number of your persons, you shall take it, every man for those who are in his tent."

17 The children of Israel did so, and gathered some more, some less.

18 When they measured it with an omer, he who gathered much had nothing over, and he who gathered little had no lack. They gathered every man according to his eating.

19 Moses said to them, "Let no one leave of it until the morning."

20 Notwithstanding they didn't listen to Moses, but some of them left of it until the morning, and it bred worms, and became foul: and Moses was angry with them.

21 They gathered it morning by morning, everyone according to his eating. When the sun grew hot, it melted.

22 It happened that on the sixth day they gathered twice as much bread, two omers for each one, and all the rulers of the congregation came and told Moses.

23 He said to them, "This is that which Yahweh has spoken, 'Tomorrow is a solemn rest, a holy Sabbath to Yahweh. Bake that which you want to Bake, and boil that which you want to boil; and all that remains over lay up for yourselves to be kept until the morning.'"

24 They laid it up until the morning, as Moses asked, and it didn't become foul, neither was there any worm in it.

25 Moses said, "Eat that today, for today is a Sabbath to Yahweh. today you shall not find it in the field.

26 Six days you shall gather it, but on the seventh day is the Sabbath. In it there shall be none."

27 It happened on the seventh day, that some of the people went out to gather, and they found none.

28 Yahweh said to Moses, "How long do you refuse to keep my commandments and my laws?

29 Behold, because Yahweh has given you the Sabbath, therefore he gives you on the sixth day the bread of two days. Everyone stay in his place. Let no one go out of his place on the seventh day."

30 So the people rested on the seventh day.

31 The house of Israel called its name Manna, and it was like coriander seed, white; and its taste was like wafers with honey.

32 Moses said, "This is the thing which Yahweh has commanded, 'Let an omer-full of it be kept throughout your generations, that they may see the bread with which I fed you in the wilderness, when I brought you forth from the land of Egypt.'"

33 Moses said to Aaron, "Take a pot, and put an omer-full of manna in it, and lay it up before Yahweh, to be kept throughout your generations."

34 As Yahweh commanded Moses, so Aaron laid it up before the Testimony, to be kept.

35 The children of Israel ate the manna forty years, until they came to an inhabited land. They ate the manna until they came to the borders of the land of Canaan.

36 Now an omer is the tenth part of an ephah.
