1 Y FUÉ á mí palabra de Jehová, diciendo:

2 Hijo del hombre, profetiza contra los pastores de Israel; profetiza, y diles á los pastores: Así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: ­Ay de los pastores de Israel, que se apacientan á sí mismos! ¿No apacientan los pastores los rebaños?

3 Coméis la leche, y os vestís de la lana: la gruesa degolláis, no apacentáis las ovejas.

4 No corroborasteis las flacas, ni curasteis la enferma: no ligasteis la perniquebrada, ni tornasteis la amontada, ni buscasteis la perdida; sino que os habéis enseñoreado de ellas con dureza y con violencia;

5 Y están derramadas por falta de pastor; y fueron para ser comidas de toda bestia del campo, y fueron esparcidas.

6 Y anduvieron perdidas mis ovejas por todos los montes, y en todo collado alto: y en toda la haz de la tierra fueron derramadas mis ovejas, y no hubo quien buscase, ni quien requiriese.

7 Por tanto, pastores, oid palabra de Jehová:

8 Vivo yo, ha dicho el Señor Jehová, que por cuanto mi rebaño fué para ser robado, y mis ovejas fueron para ser comidas de toda bestia del campo, sin pastor; ni mis pastores buscaron mis ovejas, sino que los pastores se apacentaron á sí mismos, y no apacent

9 Por tanto, oh pastores, oid palabra de Jehová:

10 Así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: He aquí, yo á los pastores; y requeriré mis ovejas de su mano, y haréles dejar de apacentar las ovejas: ni los pastores se apacentarán más á sí mismos; pues yo libraré mis ovejas de sus bocas, y no les serán más por comida.

11 Porque así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: He aquí, yo, yo requeriré mis ovejas, y las reconoceré.

12 Como reconoce su rebaño el pastor el día que está en medio de sus ovejas esparcidas, así reconoceré mis ovejas, y las libraré de todos los lugares en que fueron esparcidas el día del nublado y de la oscuridad.

13 Y yo las sacaré de los pueblos, y las juntaré de las tierras: y las meteré en su tierra, y las apacentaré en los montes de Israel por las riberas, y en todas las habitaciones del país.

14 En buenos pastos las apacentaré, y en los altos montes de Israel será su majada: allí dormirán en buena majada, y en pastos gruesos serán apacentadas sobre los montes de Israel.

15 Yo apacentaré mis ovejas, y yo les haré tener majada, dice el Señor Jehová.

16 Yo buscaré la perdida, y tornaré la amontada, y ligaré la perniquebrada, y corroboraré la enferma: mas á la gruesa y á la fuerte destruiré. Yo las apacentaré en juicio.

17 Mas vosotras, ovejas mías, así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: He aquí yo juzgo entre oveja y oveja, entre carneros y machos cabríos.

18 ¿Os es poco que comáis los buenos pastos, sino que holléis con vuestros pies lo que de vuestros pastos queda; y que bebiendo las aguas sentadas, holléis además con vuestros pies las que quedan?

19 Y mis ovejas comen lo hollado de vuestros pies, y beben lo que con vuestros pies habéis hollado.

20 Por tanto, así les dice el Señor Jehová: He aquí, yo, yo juzgaré entre la oveja gruesa y la oveja flaca,

21 Por cuanto rempujasteis con el lado y con el hombro, y acorneasteis con vuestros cuernos á todas las flacas, hasta que las esparcisteis fuera.

22 Yo salvaré á mis ovejas, y nunca más serán en rapiña; y juzgaré entre oveja y oveja.

23 Y despertaré sobre ellas un pastor, y él las apacentará; á mi siervo David: él las apacentará, y él les será por pastor.

24 Yo Jehová les seré por Dios, y mi siervo David príncipe en medio de ellos. Yo Jehová he hablado.

25 Y estableceré con ellos pacto de paz, y haré cesar de la tierra las malas bestias; y habitarán en el desierto seguramente, y dormirán en los bosques.

26 Y daré á ellas, y á los alrededores de mi collado, bendición; y haré descender la lluvia en su tiempo, lluvias de bendición serán.

27 Y el árbol del campo dará su fruto, y la tierra dará su fruto, y estarán sobre su tierra seguramente; y sabrán que yo soy Jehová, cuando quebrare las coyundas de su yugo, y los librare de mano de los que se sirven de ellos.

28 Y no serán más presa de las gentes, ni las bestias de la tierra las devorarán; sino que habitarán seguramente, y no habrá quien espante;

29 Y despertaréles una planta por nombre, y no más serán consumidos de hambre en la tierra, ni serán más avergonzados de las gentes.

30 Y sabrán que yo su Dios Jehová soy con ellos, y ellos son mi pueblo, la casa de Israel, dice el Señor Jehová.

31 Y vosotras, ovejas mías, ovejas de mi pasto, hombres sois, y yo vuestro Dios, dice el Señor Jehová.

Apocalypse Explained#593

593. And I saw another strong angel coming down out of heaven.- That this signifies the Lord as to the Word, in this case, as to its ultimate sense, which is called the sense of the letter, is evident from the signification of a strong angel, as denoting the Lord as to the Word, of which we shall speak presently. The reason why it denotes the Lord as to the Word in its ultimate sense, called the sense of the letter, is, that from that sense the Lord is called strong, for all the strength, and all the power of Divine Truth, exist and consist in its ultimate, consequently in the sense of the letter of the Word, of which also we shall speak presently.

[2] Because the sense of the letter of the Word is here meant, therefore it is said of the angel that he was seen coming down out of heaven, the same being said of the Word, which is Divine Truth; for this descends from the Lord through the heavens into the world, on which account it is adapted to the wisdom of the angels in the three heavens, and also to men in the natural world. For this reason the Word in the first origin of all is wholly Divine, afterwards celestial, then spiritual, and lastly natural. It is celestial for the angels of the inmost or third heaven, who are called celestial angels, spiritual for the angels of the second or middle heaven, who are called spiritual angels, and celestial-natural and spiritual-natural for the angels of the ultimate or first heaven, who are called celestial-natural and spiritual-natural angels, and natural for men in the world; for men, while they live in the material body, think and speak naturally.

This is the reason why the angels of each heaven possess the Word, but with a difference according to the degree of their wisdom, intelligence, and knowledge (scientia); and although it differs as to its sense in each heaven, still it is the same Word. For when the Divine itself, which is in the Word from the Lord, descends to the inmost or third heaven, it becomes celestial Divine; when it descends from this to the middle or second heaven, it becomes spiritual Divine; and when from this heaven it descends to the ultimate or first, it becomes celestial-natural or spiritual-natural Divine; and when it descends thence into the world, it becomes the natural Divine Word, such as it is with us in the letter. These successive derivations of the Divine Truth proceeding from the Lord Himself, exist from correspondences established from creation itself between things higher and lower, on which subject, the Lord willing, more will be said elsewhere.

[3] The reason why all strength and all power are in the ultimates of Divine Truth, that is in the natural sense of the Word, which is the sense of the letter, is, that this sense is the containant of all the interior senses, namely, of the spiritual and celestial, spoken of above; and since it is the containant, it is also the base, and all strength is in the base; for if things higher do not rest upon their base, they fall down and are scattered. Such would be the case with spiritual and celestial things if they did not rest upon the natural or literal sense of the Word, for this not only sustains the interior senses, but also contains them, therefore the Word or Divine Truth, in this sense, is not only in its power, but also in its fulness. But upon this subject more may be seen above; namely, that strength is in the ultimate, because the Divine there is in its fulness (n. 346, 567). It is also further explained in the Arcana Coelestia that interior things successively flow into exterior, even into the extreme or ultimate, and that therein they co-exist (n. 634, 6239, 6465, 9215, 9216); that they not only flow in successively, but also form in their ultimate what is simultaneous; in what order (n. 5897, 6451, 8603, 10099); that therefore strength and power are in the ultimates (n. 9836); that consequently responses and revelations are given in ultimates (n. 9905, 10548); that therefore the ultimate is more holy than the interiors (n. 9824).

[4] From these things, it also follows, that everything of the doctrine of the church ought to be formed and confirmed from the sense of the letter of the Word, and that all the power of doctrine is therefrom (see above, n. 356); this is the reason why the angel coming down out of heaven is called strong. That an angel in the Word, in the highest sense, means the Lord, in the respective sense (sensu respectivo), every recipient of Divine Truth from the Lord, and in an abstract sense, Divine Truth itself, may be seen above (n. 130, 302); here therefore the angel means the Lord as to the Word, because the Word is the Divine Truth itself. That the Lord Himself is here meant by the angel, is evident from a similar representation of Him as to His face, and feet, in the first chapter of this book, where it is said of the Son of man, who is the Lord, that "his countenance shone as the sun in his strength, and that his feet were like unto burnished brass, as if they burned in a furnace" (ver. 15, 16).

Exodus第19章

学习

   

1 In the third month after the children of Israel had gone forth out of the land of Egypt, on that same day they came into the wilderness of Sinai.

2 When they had departed from Rephidim, and had come to the wilderness of Sinai, they encamped in the wilderness; and there Israel encamped before the mountain.

3 Moses went up to God, and Yahweh called to him out of the mountain, saying, "This is what you shall tell the house of Jacob, and tell the children of Israel:

4 'You have seen what I did to the Egyptians, and how I bore you on eagles' wings, and brought you to myself.

5 Now therefore, if you will indeed obey my voice, and keep my covenant, then you shall be my own possession from among all peoples; for all the earth is mine;

6 and you shall be to me a kingdom of priests, and a holy nation.' These are the words which you shall speak to the children of Israel."

7 Moses came and called for the elders of the people, and set before them all these words which Yahweh commanded him.

8 All the people answered together, and said, "All that Yahweh has spoken we will do." Moses reported the words of the people to Yahweh.

9 Yahweh said to Moses, "Behold, I come to you in a thick cloud, that the people may hear when I speak with you, and may also believe you forever." Moses told the words of the people to Yahweh.

10 Yahweh said to Moses, "Go to the people, and sanctify them today and tomorrow, and let them wash their garments,

11 and be ready against the third day; for on the third day Yahweh will come down in the sight of all the people on Mount Sinai.

12 You shall set bounds to the people all around, saying, 'Be careful that you don't go up onto the mountain, or touch its border. Whoever touches the mountain shall be surely put to death.

13 No hand shall touch him, but he shall surely be stoned or shot through; whether it is animal or man, he shall not live.' When the trumpet sounds long, they shall come up to the mountain."

14 Moses went down from the mountain to the people, and sanctified the people; and they washed their clothes.

15 He said to the people, "Be ready by the third day. Don't have sexual relations with a woman."

16 It happened on the third day, when it was morning, that there were thunders and lightnings, and a thick cloud on the mountain, and the sound of an exceedingly loud trumpet; and all the people who were in the camp trembled.

17 Moses led the people out of the camp to meet God; and they stood at the lower part of the mountain.

18 Mount Sinai, all it, smoked, because Yahweh descended on it in fire; and its smoke ascended like the smoke of a furnace, and the whole mountain quaked greatly.

19 When the sound of the trumpet grew louder and louder, Moses spoke, and God answered him by a voice.

20 Yahweh came down on Mount Sinai, to the top of the mountain. Yahweh called Moses to the top of the mountain, and Moses went up.

21 Yahweh said to Moses, "Go down, warn the people, lest they break through to Yahweh to gaze, and many of them perish.

22 Let the priests also, who come near to Yahweh, sanctify themselves, lest Yahweh break forth on them."

23 Moses said to Yahweh, "The people can't come up to Mount Sinai, for you warned us, saying, 'Set bounds around the mountain, and sanctify it.'"

24 Yahweh said to him, "Go down and you shall bring Aaron up with you, but don't let the priests and the people break through to come up to Yahweh, lest he break forth on them."

25 So Moses went down to the people, and told them.
