1 JEHOVA respondió á Moisés: Ahora verás lo que yo haré á Faraón; porque con mano fuerte los ha de dejar ir; y con mano fuerte los ha de echar de su tierra.

2 Habló todavía Dios á Moisés, y díjole: Yo soy JEHOVA;

3 Y aparecí á Abraham, á Isaac y á Jacob bajo el nombre de Dios Omnipotente, mas en mi nombre JEHOVA no me notifiqué á ellos.

4 Y también establecí mi pacto con ellos, de darles la tierra de Canaán, la tierra en que fueron extranjeros, y en la cual peregrinaron.

5 Y asimismo yo he oído el gemido de los hijos de Israel, á quienes hacen servir los Egipcios, y heme acordado de mi pacto.

6 Por tanto dirás á los hijos de Israel: YO JEHOVA; y yo os sacaré de debajo de las cargas de Egipto, y os libraré de su servidumbre, y os redimiré con brazo extendido, y con juicios grandes:

7 Y os tomaré por mi pueblo y seré vuestro Dios: y vosotros sabréis que yo soy Jehová vuestro Dios, que os saco de debajo de las cargas de Egipto:

8 Y os meteré en la tierra, por la cual alcé mi mano que la daría á Abraham, á Isaac y á Jacob: y yo os la daré por heredad. YO JEHOVA.

9 De esta manera habló Moisés á los hijos de Israel: mas ellos no escuchaban á Moisés á causa de la congoja de espíritu, y de la dura servidumbre.

10 Y habló Jehová á Moisés, diciendo:

11 Entra, y habla á Faraón rey de Egipto, que deje ir de su tierra á los hijos de Israel.

12 Y respondió Moisés delante de Jehová, diciendo: He aquí, los hijos de Israel no me escuchan: ¿cómo pues me escuchará Faraón, mayormente siendo yo incircunciso de labios?

13 Entonces Jehová habló á Moisés y á Aarón, y dióles mandamiento para los hijos de Israel, y para Faraón rey de Egipto, para que sacasen á los hijos de Israel de la tierra de Egipto.

14 Estas son las cabezas de las familias de sus padres. Los hijos de Rubén, el primogénito de Israel: Hanoch y Phallú, Hezrón y Carmi: estas son las familias de Rubén.

15 Los hijos de Simeón: Jemuel, y Jamín, y Ohad, y Jachîn, y Zoar, y Saúl, hijo de una Cananea: estas son las familias de Simeón.

16 Y estos son los nombres de los hijos de Leví por sus linajes: Gersón, y Coath, y Merari: Y los años de la vida de Leví fueron ciento treinta y siete años.

17 Y los hijos de Gersón: Libni, y Shimi, por sus familias.

18 Y los hijos de Coath: Amram, é Izhar, y Hebrón, y Uzziel. Y los años de la vida de Coath fueron ciento treinta y tres años.

19 Y los hijos de Merari: Mahali, y Musi: estas son las familias de Leví por sus linajes.

20 Y Amram tomó por mujer á Jochêbed su tía, la cual le parió á Aarón y á Moisés. Y los años de la vida de Amram fueron ciento treinta y siete años.

21 Y los hijos de Izhar: Cora, y Nepheg y Zithri.

22 Y los hijos de Uzziel: Misael, y Elzaphán y Zithri.

23 Y tomóse Aarón por mujer á Elisabeth, hija de Aminadab, hermana de Naasón; la cual le parió á Nadab, y á Abiú, y á Eleazar, y á Ithamar.

24 Y los hijos de Cora: Assir, y Elcana, y Abiasaph: estas son las familias de los Coritas.

25 Y Eleazar, hijo de Aarón, tomó para sí mujer de las hijas de Phutiel, la cual le parió á Phinees: Y estas son las cabezas de los padres de los Levitas por sus familias.

26 Este es aquel Aarón y aquel Moisés, á los cuales Jehová dijo: Sacad á los hijos de Israel de la tierra de Egipto por sus escuadrones.

27 Estos son los que hablaron á Faraón rey de Egipto, para sacar de Egipto á los hijos de Israel. Moisés y Aarón fueron éstos.

28 Cuando Jehová habló á Moisés en la tierra de Egipto,

29 Entonces Jehová habló á Moisés, diciendo: Yo soy JEHOVA; di á Faraón rey de Egipto todas las cosas que yo te digo á ti.

30 Y Moisés respondió delante de Jehová: He aquí, yo soy incircunciso de labios, ¿cómo pues me ha de oír Faraón?

3667. 'God Shaddai will bless you' means the temptations to which that truth and good was subjected and by means of which the joining together was effected. This is clear from the meaning of 'God Shaddai' as temptations, dealt with below, and from the meaning of 'being blessed' as a joining together, dealt with in 3504, 3514, 3530, 3565, 3584. Since Jacob' now represents the good of truth, as shown above in 3659, that good and truth is here meant by 'you'. The reason why 'God Shaddai' means temptations is that in ancient times people gave the Supreme Deity, or the Lord, various illustrious names. They used these in accordance with His attributes and in accordance with the kinds of good derived from Him, as well as in accordance with the kinds of truth, which are manifold, as everyone knows. By all those descriptive names members of the Ancient Church meant none but the one God, namely the Lord, whom they called Jehovah. But after the Church fell away from goodness and truth, and at the same time from such wisdom, they started to worship as many gods as there were descriptive names of the one God - so much so that each nation, and at length each family, acknowledged one of them as its own god. This was how so many gods came into being, who are also referred to in various places in the Word.

[2] The same happened in the family of Terah, Abraham's father, and also in Abraham's house. The fact that they worshipped other gods, see 1356, 2559, and in particular God Shaddai, 1992. And the fact that the worship of that God persisted in that house is also clear from the following places in Moses,

I appeared to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob as God Shaddai, and by My name Jehovah I was not known to them. Exodus 6:3.

This explains why Abraham was told, I am God Shaddai; walk before Me and be blameless. Genesis 17:1.

And in the present case Isaac told Jacob, 'God Shaddai will bless you'. The truth of this is also quite evident from this chapter in which, after the Lord had said in a dream, 'I am Jehovah, the God of Abraham your father, and the God of Isaac', in verse 13, Jacob then said,

If God will be with me, and guard me on this road on which I am walking, and will give me bread to eat and clothing to wear, and I come back in peace to my father's house, then Jehovah will be my God. Verses 20-21.

From this it is evident that neither did the house of Jacob acknowledge Jehovah, but that Jacob would acknowledge Him as his God if He conferred benefits on him. It was just the same as it is in Christian Gentilism at the present day.

[3] But as regards the specific name God Shaddai, the Lord had been called by this in the Ancient Church in respect to temptations, and to the blessings and benefits following temptations, as shown in Volume Two, in 1992. This is why here in the internal sense 'God Shaddai' means temptations. Temptations are the means by which the conjunction of good and truth is effected - see what has been stated and shown already about temptations, in the paragraphs referred to in 2819.

1356. That 'Terah' means idolatrous worship becomes clear from the derivatives mentioned from verse 20 down to this point. This second Ancient Church declined from a kind of internal worship, becoming adulterated as it did so until in the end it became idolatrous, as Churches usually do. They pass from internal things to external, ending up with mere externals when internal things have been erased. The fact that the same happened to this Church, even to the extent that a large part of them did not acknowledge Jehovah as God but worshipped other gods, is clear in Joshua,

Joshua said to all the people, Thus said Jehovah, the God of Israel, Your fathers dwelt of old beyond the River, Terah, the father of Abraham and the father of Nahor, and they served other gods. Joshua 24:2.

Now fear Jehovah, and serve Him in sincerity and truth, and put away the gods which your fathers served beyond the River, and in Egypt, and serve Jehovah. And if it is evil in your eyes to serve Jehovah, choose this day whom you are to serve, whether the gods which your fathers served who were beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites. Joshua 24:14-15.

From this it is quite evident that Terah, Abram, and Nahor were idolaters.

[2] The fact that Nahor was a nation in which idolatrous worship existed is clear also from Laban the Syrian, who dwelt in the city of Nahor and who worshipped the images or teraphim which Rachel carried away with her, Genesis 24:10; 31:19, 26, 32, 34. And the fact that Abraham had one god, Nahor another, and Terah their father yet another, is clear from Genesis 31:53. It is also explicitly stated in Moses that Jehovah was unknown to Abram,

I, Jehovah, appeared to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob as God Shaddai, and by My name Jehovah I was not known to them. Exodus 6:3.

From this it is evident how much this Church with this people declined into idolatrous worship, which is meant here by 'Terah'. And since Terah means that worship, so do Abram, Nahor, and Haran.
