Exodo第12章

学习

   

1 At ang Panginoon ay nagsalita kay Moises at kay Aaron sa lupain ng Egipto, na sinasabi,

2 Ang buwang ito'y magiging sa inyo'y pasimula ng mga buwan: siyang magiging unang buwan ng taon sa inyo.

3 Salitain ninyo sa buong kapisanan ng Israel na inyong sabihin: Sa ikasangpung araw ng buwang ito ay magsisikuha sila sa ganang kanila, bawa't lalake, ng isang kordero, ayon sa mga sangbahayan ng kanikanilang mga magulang, isang kordero sa bawa't sangbahayan:

4 At kung ang sangbahayan ay napakakaunti upang kumain ng isang kordero, ay siya nga at ang kaniyang malapit na kapitbahay ay magsasalosalo sa isa ayon sa bilang ng mga tao; ayon sa bawa't tao na kumakain gagawin ninyo ang pagbilang, sa kordero.

5 Ang inyong korderong pipiliin ay yaong walang kapintasan, isang lalake, na iisahing taon: inyong kukunin sa mga tupa, o sa mga kambing:

6 At inyong aalagaan hanggang sa ikalabing apat na araw ng buwang ito, at papatayin ng buong kapulungan ng kapisanan ng Israel, sa paglubog ng araw.

7 At kukuha sila ng dugo niyan, at ilalagay sa dalawang haligi ng pinto at sa itaas ng pintuan, sa mga bahay na kanilang kakainan.

8 At kanilang kakanin ang laman sa gabing yaon, na inihaw sa apoy, at tinapay na walang lebadura, kakanin nilang kaulam ng mapapait na gulay.

9 Huwag ninyong kaning hilaw, o luto man sa tubig, kundi inihaw sa apoy; ang kaniyang ulo pati ng kaniyang mga paa at pati ng kaniyang mga lamang loob.

10 At huwag kayong magtitira ng anoman niyaon hanggang sa kinaumagahan; kundi yaong matitira niyaon sa kinaumagahan ay inyong susunugin sa apoy.

11 At ganito ninyo kakanin; may bigkis ang inyong baywang, ang inyong mga pangyapak ay nakasuot sa inyong mga paa, at ang inyong tungkod ay tangnan ninyo sa inyong kamay; at inyong kakaning dalidali; siyang paskua ng Panginoon.

12 Sapagka't ako'y dadaan sa lupain ng Egipto sa gabing yaon, at aking lilipulin ang lahat ng mga panganay sa lupain ng Egipto, maging tao at maging hayop; at gagawa ako ng kahatulan laban sa lahat ng mga dios sa Egipto, ako ang Panginoon.

13 At ang dugo ay magiging sa inyo'y isang tanda sa mga bahay na inyong kinaroroonan: at pagka aking nakita ang dugo, ay lalampasan ko kayo, at walang salot na sasainyo, na papatay sa inyo, pananakit ko sa lupaing Egipto.

14 At ang araw na ito'y magiging sa inyo'y isang alaala, at inyong ipagdidiwang na pinakapista sa Panginoon; sa buong panahon ng inyong lahi ay inyong ipagdidiwang na pinakapista na bilang tuntunin magpakailan man.

15 Pitong araw na kakain kayo ng tinapay na walang lebadura; sa unang araw ay inyong ihihiwalay sa inyong mga bahay ang lebadura; sapagka't sinomang kumain ng tinapay na may lebadura mula sa unang araw hanggang sa ikapitong araw ay ihihiwalay sa Israel, ang taong yaon.

16 At sa unang araw ay magkakaroon kayo ng isang banal na pagkakatipon at sa ikapitong araw man ay magkakaroon ding kayo ng isang banal na pagkakatipon; walang anomang gawa na gagawin sa mga araw na iyan, liban na yaong nararapat kanin ng bawa't tao, na siya lamang maaaring gawin ninyo.

17 At iyong ipangingilin ang pista ng tinapay na walang lebadura; sapagka't sa araw ring ito kinuha ko ang inyong mga hukbo sa lupain ng Egipto: kaya't inyong ipangingilin ang araw na ito sa buong panahon ng inyong lahi, na bilang tuntunin magpakailan man.

18 Sa unang buwan ng ikalabing apat na araw ng buwan sa paglubog ng araw ay kakain kayo ng tinapay na walang lebadura, hanggang sa ikadalawang pu't isang araw ng buwan, sa paglubog ng araw.

19 Pitong araw, na walang masusumpungang lebadura sa inyong mga bahay: sapagka't sinomang kumain niyaong may lebadura, ay ihihiwalay sa kapisanan ng Israel, ang taong yaon, maging taga ibang lupa, o maging ipinanganak sa lupain.

20 Huwag kayong kakain ng anomang bagay na may lebadura; sa lahat ng inyong mga tahanan ay kakain kayo ng tinapay na walang lebadura.

21 Nang magkagayo'y ipinatawag ni Moises ang lahat ng matanda sa Israel, at sinabi sa kanila, Kayo'y lumabas at kumuha kayo ng mga kordero ayon sa inyo-inyong sangbahayan, at magpatay kayo ng kordero ng paskua.

22 At kayo'y kukuha ng isang bigkis na hisopo, at inyong babasain sa dugo, na nasa palanggana, at inyong papahiran ng dugo na nasa palanggana, ang itaas ng pinto at ang dalawang haligi ng pinto: at sinoman sa inyo ay huwag lalabas sa pinto ng kaniyang bahay hanggang sa kinaumagahan.

23 Sapagka't ang Panginoon ay daraan upang sugatan ang mga Egipcio; at pagkakita niya ng dugo sa itaas ng pinto at sa dalawang haligi ng pinto, ay lalampasan ng Panginoon ang pintong yaon, at hindi niya papayagan ang manunugat ay pumasok sa inyong mga bahay na sugatan kayo.

24 At inyong ipangingilin ang bagay na ito, na pinakatuntunin sa iyo at sa iyong mga anak magpakailan man.

25 At mangyayaring pagdating ninyo sa lupain na ibibigay sa inyo ng Panginoon, gaya ng kaniyang ipinangako, ay inyong tutuparin ang paglilingkod na ito.

26 At mangyayaring pagsasabi sa inyo ng inyong mga anak: Anong ibig ninyong sabihin sa paglilingkod na ito?

27 Na inyong sasabihin: Siyang paghahain sa paskua ng Panginoon, na kaniyang nilampasan ang mga bahay ng mga anak ni Israel sa Egipto, nang kaniyang sugatan ang mga Egipcio, at iniligtas ang aming mga sangbahayan. At ang bayan ay nagyukod ng ulo at sumamba.

28 At ang mga anak ni Israel ay yumaon at ginawang gayon; kung paanong iniutos ng Panginoon kay Moises at kay Aaron, ay gayong ginawa nila.

29 At nangyari sa hating gabi, na nilipol ng Panginoon ang lahat ng mga panganay sa lupain ng Egipto, mula sa panganay ni Faraon na nakaluklok sa kaniyang luklukan, hanggang sa panganay ng bilanggo na nasa bilangguan; at lahat ng panganay sa mga hayop.

30 At si Faraon ay bumangon sa kinagabihan, siya at lahat ng kaniyang mga lingkod, at lahat ng mga Egipcio, at nagkaroon ng isang malakas na hiyawan sa Egipto; sapagka't walang bahay na di mayroong isang patay.

31 At kaniyang tinawag si Moises at si Aaron sa kinagabihan, at sinabi, Kayo'y bumangon, umalis kayo sa gitna ng aking bayan kayo at sangpu ng mga anak ni Israel; at kayo'y yumaong maglingkod sa Panginoon, gaya ng inyong sinabi.

32 Dalhin ninyo kapuwa ang inyong mga kawan at ang inyong mga bakahan, gaya ng inyong sinabi, at kayo'y yumaon: at pagpalain din naman ninyo ako.

33 At pinapagmadali ng mga Egipcio, ang bayan, na madaliang pinaalis sila sa lupain; sapagka't kanilang sinabi, Kaming lahat ay patay na.

34 At dinala ng bayan ang kanilang masa bago humilab, na nababalot ang kanilang mga masa sa kanikanilang damit sa ibabaw ng kanikanilang balikat.

35 At ginawa ng mga anak ni Israel ayon sa salita ni Moises; at sila'y humingi sa mga Egipcio ng mga hiyas na pilak, at mga hiyas na ginto, at mga damit:

36 At pinagbiyayaan ng Panginoon ang bayan sa paningin ng mga Egipcio, ano pa't ibinigay sa kanila anomang hingin nila. At kanilang hinubaran ang mga Egipcio.

37 At ang angkan ni Israel ay naglakbay mula sa Rameses hanggang sa Succoth, na may anim na raang libong lalake na naglakad, bukod pa ang mga bata.

38 At isang karamihang samasama ang sumampa rin namang kasabay nila; at mga kawan, at mga bakahan, na napakaraming hayop.

39 At kanilang nilutong mga munting tinapay na walang lebadura ang masa na kanilang kinuha sa Egipto, sapagka't hindi pa humihilab, sapagka't sila'y itinaboy sa Egipto, at hindi sila nakatigil o nakapaghanda man ng anomang pagkain.

40 Ang pakikipamayan nga ng mga anak ni Israel, na ipinakipamayan nila sa Egipto, ay apat na raan at tatlong pung taon.

41 At nangyari sa katapusan ng apat na raan at tatlong pung taon, ng araw ding yaon ay nangyari, na ang lahat ng mga hukbo ng Panginoon ay umalis sa lupain ng Egipto.

42 Ito ay isang gabing pangingilin sa Panginoon dahil sa paglalabas niya sa kanila sa lupain ng Egipto: ito ay yaong gabi ng Panginoon na ipangingilin ng lahat ng mga anak ni Israel sa buong panahon ng kanilang lahi.

43 At sinabi ng Panginoon kay Moises at kay Aaron, Ito ang tuntunin sa paskua: walang sinomang taga ibang lupa na kakain niyaon:

44 Datapuwa't ang alipin ng bawa't lalake na nabili ng salapi, pagkatuli sa kaniya'y makakakain nga niyaon.

45 Ang nakikipamayan at ang alilang binabayaran ay hindi kakain niyaon.

46 Sa isang bahay kakanin; huwag kang magdadala ng laman sa labas ng bahay, ni sisira kayo ng kahit isang buto niyaon.

47 Ipangingilin ng buong kapisanan ng Israel.

48 At pagka ang isang taga ibang lupa ay makikipamayan kasama mo, at mangingilin ng paskua sa Panginoon, ay tuliin lahat ang kaniyang mga lalake at saka siya lumapit at ipangilin: at siya'y magiging parang ipinanganak sa lupain ninyo; datapuwa't sinomang di tuli ay hindi makakakain niyaon.

49 Isang kautusan magkakaroon sa ipinanganak sa lupain, at sa taga ibang bayan na nakikipamayang kasama ninyo.

50 Gayon ginawa ng lahat ng mga anak ni Israel; kung paanong iniutos ng Panginoon kay Moises at kay Aaron, gayon nila ginawa.

51 At nangyari nang araw ding yaon, na kinuha ng Panginoon ang mga anak ni Israel sa lupain ng Egipto, ayon sa kanilang mga hukbo.

3448. 'And Ahuzzath his companion, and Phicol the commander of his army' means the first and foremost features of their doctrine of faith. This is clear from the representation of 'Abimelech' as the doctrine of faith which has regard to rational concepts. Consequently 'his companion and the commander of his army' means those first and foremost things, indeed the first and foremost things of their doctrine; for 'a commander' like a prince means things that are first and foremost, 1482, 2089, and 'an army' means matters of doctrine themselves. The reason why 'an army' means matters of doctrine which are expressions of truth, that is, which are lower truths, is that by 'warfare' in the Word and by 'war' are meant those things that have to do with spiritual war and warfare, 1664, 1788, 2686. The same are also meant by weapons - by spears, shields, bows, arrows, swords, and so on, as has been shown in various places. And since they are truths or matters of doctrine through which spiritual conflicts are fought, armies therefore mean those truths or matters of doctrine, and also in the contrary sense falsities or heretical ideas.

[2] It may be seen from many places that by 'armies' or 'hosts' in the Word are meant truths or falsities, as in Daniel,

The one [little] horn of the he-goat 1 grew exceedingly towards the south, and towards the east, and towards the glorious [land]. And it grew even towards the host of heaven, and cast down to earth some of the host, and of the stars, and trampled on them. It drew itself up even towards the pence of the host. His host was set over the continual [burnt offering] on account of the transgression, and it cast down truth to the earth. I heard a holy one speaking. He said, For how long is this vision, the continual burnt offering, and the desolating transgression, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden down? Daniel 8:9-13.

'The horn that grew towards the south, the east, and the glorious [land]' is the power of falsity that springs from evil, 2832, 'the host of heaven' truths, 'the prince of the host' the Lord as regards Divine Truth. And since in the good sense 'an army' or 'a host' is truth it is said that the horn cast down to earth some of the host, and then that it cast down truth to the earth.

[3] In the same prophet,

The king of the north will raise a multitude greater than the former, and at the end of the period of years he wit surely come with a great army and with many riches. Then he will stir up his power and his heart against the king of the south with a great army. And the king of the south will engage in war with an exceedingly great and mighty army, but he will not stand. For even those who eat his food will break him, and his army will overflow, and many will fall down slain. Daniel 11:13, 25-26.

The whole of that chapter refers to war between the king of the north and the king of the south. 'The king of the north' is used to mean falsities as also is 'his army', while 'the king of the south and his army' is used to mean truths. It is prophecy concerning the vastation of the Church.

[4] In John,

I saw heaven standing open, and behold, a white horse! and He who sat on it was called faithful and true. He was clothed in a garment dyed in blood, and His armies in heaven were following Him on white horses and were clothed in linen, white and clean. I saw the beast and the kings of the earth and their armies gathered to make war with Him who was sitting on the horse and with His army. Revelation 19:11, 13-14, 19.

'He who sat on the white horse' stands for the Word of the Lord, or the Lord as regards the Word, 2760-2762. 'His armies which in heaven were following Him' stands for truths from the Word and so for those in heaven who possess truths. 'The beast' stands for the evils that belong to self-love, 'the kings of the earth and their armies' for falsities. Conflicts between falsity and truth are what are described here.

[5] In David,

By the word of Jehovah were the heavens made, and their host by the spirit of His mouth. Psalms 33:6.

'Their host' or the host of heaven stands for truths. Since 'an army' means truths, the children of the kingdom, and angels, by virtue of the truths which they possess, are called the host of heaven, as in Luke,

Suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God. Luke 2:13.

In David,

Bless Jehovah, all His hosts, His ministers doing His will. Psalms 103:21.

In the same author,

Praise Jehovah, all His angels, praise Him, all His hosts. Psalms 148:2.

In Isaiah,

Lift up your eyes on high and see; who created these? He who brings out their host by number; He calls them all by name. From the multitude of the powerful and of the mighty not a man will be missing. Isaiah 40:26.

In the same prophet,

It was I that made the earth and created man on it. It was I - My hands - that stretched out the heavens; and I commanded all their host. Isaiah 45:12.

Here 'the host of the heavens' stands for truths, and so for angels since angels, as has been stated, are in possession of truths.

[6] In the first Book of Kings,

I saw Jehovah sitting on His throne, and the entire host of heaven standing beside Him, on His right hand and on His left. 1 Kings 22:19

In Joel,

Jehovah gave voice before His army, for His camp is exceedingly great; for that which executes His word is uncountable. Joel 2:11.

In Zechariah,

I will pitch by My house a camp composed of an army passing through and resuming, so that the oppressor passes over them no more. Exult greatly, O daughter of Zion! Make a noise, O daughter of Jerusalem! Behold, your King comes to you. Zechariah 9:8-9.

This refers to the Coming of the Lord. 'His army' stands for Divine truths For this reason, and also because the Lord alone fights on man's behalf against hells that are constantly endeavouring to attack, the Lord is called many times in the Word Jehovah Zebaoth, God Zebaoth, the Lord Zebaoth - that is, Jehovah, God, or Lord of Hosts - as in Isaiah,

The noise of a tumult of the kingdoms of the nations gathered together! Jehovah Zebaoth is leading an army of war. Isaiah 13:4.

'The kingdoms of the nations' stands for falsities that spring from evils, 'leading an army of war' for fighting on man's behalf.

[7] Because the twelve tribes of Israel represented the Lord's heavenly kingdom, and 'tribes' as well as 'twelve' meant all things of faith in their entirety, that is, all the truths of the kingdom, 577, 2089, 2129, 2130, 3272, they were also called Jehovah's hosts, as in Exodus 7:4; 12:17, 41, 51. And commands were given to bring them out of Egypt according to their hosts, Exodus 6:26, to encamp according to their hosts, Numbers 1:52, and to divide them into hosts, Numbers 2:1- end.

[8] That truths are meant by 'armies' is also clear in Ezekiel,

Persia and Lud and Put were in your army, as your men of war; they hung the shield and helmet in you, they gave you your reputation. The sons of Arvad, and your army, were on your walls round about, and the Gammadim were in your towers. Ezekiel 27:10-11.

This refers to Tyre which means interior cognitions of good and truth, and so those who possess them, 1201, 'army' standing for truths themselves 'Lud' and 'Put' too mean those who possess cognitions, see 1163, 1164, 1166, 1195, 1231. 'The shield and helmet' describes such things as belong to spiritual conflict.

[9] As regards 'an army' or 'a host' in the contrary sense meaning falsities, this is evident in Isaiah,

It will be on that day, that Jehovah will visit the host of the height on high, and the kings of the earth on the earth. Isaiah 24:21.

Here 'the host of the height' stands for falsities that result from self-love. In Ezekiel,

I will bring you back and put hooks in your jaws, and I will bring you forth, and all your army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed perfectly, a great company with shield and buckler, all of them wielding swords. You will come from your place, from the uttermost parts of the north, you and many peoples with you, all of them riding horses, a great company, a great army. Ezekiel 38:4, 15.

This refers to Gog, who means external worship separated from internal and so made idolatrous, 1151. 'His army' stands for falsities.

[10] In Jeremiah,

I will send against Babel the archer, him who arches his bow and draws himself up in his breastplate. Do not spare the young men; utterly destroy all its host. Jeremiah 51:2-3.

'Babel' stands for worship whose external features appear holy but whose interiors are profane, 1182, 1283, 1295, 1304, 1306-1308, 1321, 1322, 1326. 'Its host' means the falsities that go with such as these, and the army of Babel in other places has the same meaning as in Jeremiah 34:1, 21; 32:2; 39:1.

In Ezekiel,

Pharaoh will see them and will comfort himself over all his multitude, Pharaoh and all his army, slain by the sword; for I will put My terror in the land of the living. Ezekiel 32:31-32.

This refers to Egypt, which means those who by means of reasonings based on facts pervert truths, 1164, 1165. 'His army', that is, Pharaoh's, stands for derivative falsities, as also does 'Pharaoh's army' in other places, as in Jeremiah 37:5, 7, 11; 46:2; Ezekiel 17:17.

In Luke,

When you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then know that its devastation is near. Luke 21:20.

This refers to the close of the age or final period of the Church when faith does not exist any longer. 'Jerusalem' - which means the Church, see 2117 - is 'surrounded by armies' when beset by falsities.

[11] From these quotations it is clear that 'the hosts of heaven', which Jews and Israelite idolaters worshipped, in the internal sense meant falsities. The second Book of Kings says of them,

They forsook all the commandments of their God and made for themselves a molten image of two calves, and made a grove, and bowed down to all the host of heaven. 2 Kings 17:16.

This refers to the Israelites. And elsewhere it is said of Manasseh that he built altars for all the host of heaven, 2 Kings 21:5, and that King Josiah brought out of the temple all the vessels made for Baal, and for the grove, and for all the host of heaven, 2 Kings 23:4. And in Jeremiah it is said that they were to spread the bones of the princes, of the priests, and of the prophets before the sun, the moon, and all the host of heaven, which they had loved and had served and had gone after, Jeremiah 8:1-2. And elsewhere,

The houses of Jerusalem and the houses of the king of Judah will be defiled, like the place of Topheth - all the houses on whose roofs they have burned incense to all the host of heaven and have poured out drink offerings to other gods. Jeremiah 19:13.

And in Zephaniah,

I will stretch out My hand against those worshipping on their roofs the host of heaven. Zephaniah 1:5.

It is the stars to which the expression 'the host of heaven' refers primarily, and by 'the stars' is meant truths, and also in the contrary sense falsities; see 1128, 1808.
