Исход第23章

学习

   

1 Не внимай пустому слуху, не давай руки твоей нечестивому, чтоббыть свидетелем неправды.

2 Не следуй за большинством на зло, и не решай тяжбы, отступая по большинству от правды;

3 и бедному не потворствуй в тяжбе его.

4 Если найдешь вола врага твоего, или осла его заблудившегося, приведи его к нему;

5 если увидишь осла врага твоего упавшим под ношею своею, то не оставляй его; развьючь вместе с ним.

6 Не суди превратно тяжбы бедного твоего.

7 Удаляйся от неправды и не умерщвляй невинного и правого, ибо Я неоправдаю беззаконника.

8 Даров не принимай, ибо дары слепыми делают зрячих и превращают дело правых.

9 Пришельца не обижай: вы знаете душу пришельца, потому что сами былипришельцами в земле Египетской.

10 Шесть лет засевай землю твою и собирай произведения ее,

11 а в седьмой оставляй ее в покое, чтобы питались убогие из твоего народа, а остатками после них питались звери полевые; так же поступай с виноградником твоим и с маслиною твоею.

12 Шесть дней делай дела твои, а в седьмой день покойся, чтобы отдохнул вол твой и осел твой и успокоился сын рабы твоей и пришлец.

13 Соблюдайте все, что Я сказал вам, и имени других богов не упоминайте; да не слышится оно из уст твоих.

14 Три раза в году празднуй Мне:

15 наблюдай праздник опресноков: семь дней ешь пресный хлеб, как Я повелел тебе, в назначенное время месяца Авива, ибо в оном ты вышел из Египта; и пусть не являются пред лице Мое с пустыми руками;

16 наблюдай и праздник жатвы первых плодов труда твоего, какие ты сеял на поле, и праздник собирания плодов в конце года, когда уберешь с поля работу твою.

17 Три раза в году должен являться весь мужеский полтвой пред лице Владыки, Господа.

18 не изливай крови жертвы Моей на квасное, и тук от праздничной жертвы Моей не должен оставаться до утра.

19 Начатки плодов земли твоей приноси в дом Господа, Бога твоего. Невари козленка в молоке матери его.

20 Вот, Я посылаю пред тобою Ангела хранить тебя на пути и ввести тебя в то место, которое Я приготовил.

21 блюди себя пред лицем Его и слушай гласа Его; не упорствуй противНего, потому что Он не простит греха вашего, ибо имя Мое в Нем.

22 Если ты будешь слушать гласа Его и исполнять все, что скажу, то врагом буду врагов твоих и противником противников твоих.

23 Когда пойдет пред тобою Ангел Мой и поведет тебя к Аморреям, Хеттеям, Ферезеям, Хананеям, Евеям и Иевусеям, и истреблю их:

24 то не поклоняйся богам их, и не служи им, и не подражай делам их,но сокруши их и разрушь столбы их:

25 служите Господу, Богу вашему, и Он благословит хлеб твой и водутвою; и отвращу от вас болезни.

26 Не будет преждевременно рождающих и бесплодных в земле твоей; число дней твоих сделаю полным.

27 Ужас Мой пошлю пред тобою, и в смущение приведу всякий народ, к которому ты придешь, и буду обращать к тебетыл всех врагов твоих;

28 пошлю пред тобою шершней, и они погонят от лица твоего Евеев,Хананеев и Хеттеев;

29 не выгоню их от лица твоего в один год, чтобы земля не сделалась пуста и не умножились против тебя звери полевые:

30 мало-помалу буду прогонять их от тебя, доколе ты не размножишься и не возьмешь во владение земли сей.

31 Проведу пределы твои от моря Чермного до моря Филистимского и от пустыни до реки; ибо предам в руки ваши жителей сей земли, и прогонишь их от лица твоего;

32 не заключай союза ни с ними, ни с богами их;

33 не должны они жить в земле твоей, чтобы они не ввели тебя в грех против Меня; ибо если ты будешь служить богам их, то это будет тебе сетью.

9282. 'And all that I have said to you you shall keep' means that they should carry out the commandments, judgements, and statutes. This is clear from the meaning of 'all that Jehovah said to them' as all laws of life, laws of worship, and laws of the civic state (laws of life are called 'commandments', those of worship are called 'statutes', and those of the civic state are called 'judgements', 8972); and from the meaning of 'keeping' or observing as carrying out, for when anyone carries them out they are observed. Since those laws of life, laws of worship, and laws of the civic state are not anything with a person as long as they are confined to his understanding, and are only something with him when they are present in his will, it is stated everywhere in the Word that they must be carried out, for carrying them out belongs to the will. But knowing, understanding, acknowledging, and believing belong to the understanding; yet they do not have any being with the person until they become part of his will, and there is no manifestation of them with him until they become part of an understanding rooted in the will. For having being consists in willing, and manifestation in acknowledging and believing as a result of willing. Things that have no such being or manifestation with a person are not properly his own. They stand outside, not as yet received into the house. So they make no contribution at all towards the person's eternal life. For such things if they have not become part of his life are dispelled in the next life; the only things to remain will be those which are in his heart, that is, in his will and from there in his understanding. This being so, it is stated everywhere in the Word that commandments and statutes must be carried out, as in Moses,

You shall carry out My judgements and keep My statutes, to go in them. Therefore you shall keep My statutes and My judgements, which if a person carries them out, he will live by them. Leviticus 18:4-5.

It is also stated in Matthew 5:19; 7:24-27; 16:27; John 3:21; and very many times elsewhere.

8972. Verse 1 And these are the judgements which you shall set before them means those more external truths such as must exist in a civic state where the Church is representative, which flow from the internal truths belonging to order in heaven. The fact that these things are meant by 'the judgements that were to be set before the children of Israel' is clear from the meaning of 'judgements' as truths, dealt with in 2235, 6397, 7206, 8685, 8695. The reason why 'judgements' are truths is that all judgement is effected by means of truths; therefore 'executing judgement' in the Word means executing truth, that is, judging in accordance with truths. But the plural 'judgements' means civil laws, thus those more external truths such as exist in a civic state. The words 'where the Church is representative' are added because these truths contain and embody within themselves the truths that belong to order in heaven, as may be recognized from the internal sense of them.

[2] The laws which the Lord delivered to the children of Israel and commanded them to keep were divided into commandments, judgements, and statutes. The term 'commandments' was given to those which were laws of life, 'judgements' to those which were laws of the civic state, and 'statutes' to those which were laws of worship. As regards judgements specifically, they are the kinds of laws that are contained in the present chapter and also some that follow. They served as laws in a Church in which inner realities, those of heaven and of the Church, were represented by outward things; but they do not serve as laws in a Church in which inner realities are no longer represented by outward things, as in the Christian Church. The reason for this is that inner realities have been revealed to people of this Church, and therefore inner realities are the channel through which contact is made with heaven, not outward things, as had been the situation before the Christian Church. Here is the reason why members of the Christian Church are not bound to adhere to the outward requirements of the laws called judgements and statutes, only to the inward ones. Holiness still remains within them because they hold holy truths within them, as also does every single command in the Word regarding the sacrifices. Although these are no longer prescriptive laws they remain holy constituents of the Word because of the Divine realities which they hold within themselves and which they represented. For when they are read by a Christian the Divine realities which are held within them and which were represented by them are discerned in heaven. They fill the angels with holiness, and at the same time the reader too through influx from the angels, especially if the reader himself is thinking at the same time about the Divine realities within them. From this it is evident that even the Old Testament Word is extremely holy.

[3] The fact that the laws which the Lord delivered to the children of Israel and commanded them to keep were divided into commandments that were laws of life, judgements that were laws of the civic state, and statutes that were laws of worship, is evident in Moses,

Jehovah said to Moses, Go, say to them, Go back into your tents. But you, stand here with Me, that I may tell you all the commandments, and statutes, and judgements which you shall teach them, so that they may do them. Deuteronomy 5:30-31.

In the same author,

Furthermore these are the commandments, statutes, and judgements which Jehovah your God commanded to teach you. Deuteronomy 6:1.

In the same author,

Therefore you shall keep the commandments and the statutes and the judgments which I am commanding you today, to do them. Deuteronomy 7:11.

In David,

If his sons forsake My law and do not walk in My judgements, if they profane My statutes and do not keep My commandments, I will visit their transgression with the rod. Psalms 89:30-32.

[4] Furthermore all the laws, in that they were those of a representative Church, were generally called judgements and statutes, as in Moses,

Now therefore, O Israel, hear the statutes and the judgements which I will teach you, that you may do them. What great nation [is there] that has righteous statutes and judgements, like all this law which I will set before you today? Deuteronomy 4:1, 8; 5:1.

In Ezekiel.

Jerusalem has changed My judgements into wickedness more than the nations, and My statutes more than the lands that are around her; for they have repudiated My judgements, and have not walked in My statutes. Ezekiel 5:6-7.

In the same prophet,

Let him 1 walk in My statutes and keep My judgements - to do the truth. Ezekiel 18:9.

In addition to these there are many other places, such as Leviticus 18:5; 19:37; 20:22; 25:18; 26:15; Deuteronomy 26:17; Ezekiel 11:12, 20; 20:11, 13, 25; 37:24.
