1 Mózes 23

1 Vala pedig Sárának élete száz huszonhét esztendõ. [Ezek] Sára életének esztendei.

2 És meghala Sára Kirját-Arbában azaz Hebronban a Kanaán földén, és beméne Ábrahám, hogy gyászolja Sárát és sirassa õt.

3 Felkele azután Ábrahám az õ halottja elõl, és szóla a Khéth fiainak, mondván:

4 Idegen és jövevény vagyok közöttetek: Adjatok nékem temetésre való örökséget ti nálatok, hadd temessem el az én halottamat én elõlem.

5 Felelének pedig a Khéth fiai Ábrahámnak, mondván õnéki:

6 Hallgass meg minket uram: Istentõl való fejedelem vagy te mi közöttünk, a mi temetõhelyeink közûl a mely legtisztességesebb, abba temesd el a te halottadat, közûlünk senki sem tiltja meg tõled az õ temetõhelyét, hogy eltemethesd a te halottadat.

7 És felkele Ábrahám, és meghajtá magát a földnek népe elõtt, a Khéth fiai elõtt.

8 És szóla õ velök mondván: Ha azt akarjátok, hogy eltemessem az én halottamat én elõlem: hallgassatok meg engemet, és esedezzetek én érettem Efron elõtt, Czohár fia elõtt.

9 Hogy adja nékem Makpelá barlangját, mely az övé, mely az õ mezejének szélében van: igaz árán adja nékem azt, ti köztetek temetésre való örökségûl.

10 Efron pedig ûl vala a Khéth fiai között. Felele azért Efron a Khitteus, Ábrahámnak, a Khéth fiainak és mindazoknak hallatára, a kik bemennek vala az õ városának kapuján, mondván:

11 Nem úgy uram, hallgass meg engem: azt a mezõt néked adom, s a barlangot, mely abban van, azt is néked adom, népem fiainak szeme láttára adom azt néked, temesd el halottadat.

12 És meghajtá magát Ábrahám a földnek népe elõtt.

13 És szóla Efronhoz a föld népének hallatára, mondván: Ha mégis meghallgatnál engem! megadom a mezõnek árát, fogadd el tõlem; [azután] eltemetem ott az én halottamat.

14 És felele Efron Ábrahámnak, mondván néki:

15 Uram! hallgass meg engemet; négyszáz ezüst siklusos föld, micsoda az én köztem és te közötted? Csak temesd el a te halottadat.

16 Engede azért Ábrahám Efronnak és odamérte Ábrahám Efronnak az ezüstöt, a melyet mondott vala a Khéth fiainak hallatára; kalmároknál kelendõ négyszáz ezüst siklust.

17 Így lett Efronnak Makpelában levõ mezeje, mely Mamré átellenében van, a mezõ a benne levõ barlanggal, és minden a mezõben levõ fa az egész határban köröskörûl

18 Ábrahámnak birtoka, a Khéth fiainak, mind azoknak szeme elõtt, a kik az õ városának kapuján bemennek vala.

19 Azután eltemeté Ábrahám az õ feleségét Sárát a Makpelá mezejének barlangjába Mamréval szemben. Ez Hebron a Kanaán földén.

20 Így erõsítteték meg a mezõ és a benne lévõ barlang Ábrahámnak temetésre való örökségûl a Khéth fiaitól.

3061. 'O Jehovah, the God of my master Abraham' means of the Divine itself, which is the Father, with the Divine Human, which is the Son, that is to say, communication of these. This is clear from what has been stated and shown several times above, namely the following:

'Jehovah God' is the Lord's Divine itself, which is called the Father, while 'Abraham' represents His Divine Human, 2833, 2836.

Jehovah in the Old Testament Word is the Lord Himself, see 1736, 1815, 2921.

The Most Ancient Church before the Flood, and the Ancient Church after the Flood, meant by 'Jehovah' none other than the Lord, 1343, 1676, 1990, 2016, 3035.

Within the Lord exists the Trinity of the Divine itself, the Divine Human, and the Divine Holy proceeding, and these are one, 1999, 2149, 2156, 2288, 2329, 2447.

The entire Trinity within the Lord is Jehovah, 2156, 2329; and every single thing in the Lord is Jehovah, 1902, 1921.

The Lord is one with the Father, and no other is meant in heaven by the Father, 14, 15, 1725, 1729, 1733, 1815, 2005, 2018, 2025, 2803, 3038.

The Lord constitutes the whole of heaven since He is its All; from Him comes the whole of innocence, peace, love, charity, mercy, and conjugial love, as do all Good and Truth; Moses and the Prophets, and so the Word in every detail, have reference to Him; and all the religious observances of the Church were representative of Him, 2751.

As to the Divine Human the Lord is called the Son, 2628.

The Lord's Divine Human was not only conceived but also born from His Divine Essence, which is Jehovah, 2798.

Thus as to the Human the Lord became Jehovah, and Life from Himself, 1603, 1737

[2] The Lord has existed from eternity, as is quite clear from the Word, see 2803, even though He was born at a particular point in time. For He it was who spoke through Moses and the Prophets (having also appeared to many) in whose writings it is said that He was Jehovah. But this very deep arcanum cannot be revealed to anyone except to those who possess Divine perception, and so to scarcely any apart from members of the Most Ancient Church, who were celestial and possessed such perception. From these people I have heard that Jehovah Himself was the Lord as regards the Divine Human whenever He came down into heaven or flowed in by way of heaven, for heaven resembles one human being as to all its members, and for that reason is also called the Grand Man, 684, 1276, 2996, 2998, 3021. The Divine itself within heaven or the Grand Man was the Divine Human, and was Jehovah Himself clothed in that manner with the Human.

[3] But when the human race had become such that the Divine itself clothed as the Divine Human could no longer exert any influence on it, that is, when Jehovah could no longer reach down to mankind in that way because it had moved so far away, Jehovah, who is the Lord as regards the Divine Essence, came down and took upon Himself the Human, which was by conception Divine, but by birth from the virgin was like that of any other human being. But what He received from the virgin He cast out, and by Divine means made Divine the Human that had been born. From this Human made Divine proceeds all that is holy. Thus the Divine Human has come into being as an Essence by itself which fills the whole of heaven and causes those to be saved who previously could not be saved. This now is the Lord, who alone as to the Divine Human is Man, and from whom everyone has it to be [truly] human, 49, 288, 477, 565, 1894.

2018. That 'I will establish My covenant between Me and you' means union is clear from the meaning of 'a covenant' as union, dealt with already in 665, 666, 1023, 1038. This union has been dealt with above in this chapter and in other places before that, where it has been shown that Jehovah who is the speaker here was within Him, because He was one with Him from the very start of conception and birth. For He was indeed conceived from Jehovah, and therefore His Internal was Jehovah. And in 1999 this has been illustrated by the similarity that exists with man; that is to say, his soul is one with his body, or his internal one with his external, even though they are quite distinct and separate from each other. Sometimes they are so distinct that one is in conflict with the other, as normally happens in times of temptation when the internal reproaches the external and wishes to cast out the evil that is within the external; nevertheless they are joined together or are one since soul and body both belong to the same person. Take for example a person whose thought is something other than what is expressed in his looks, speech, and actions. In his case that which is more interior is at variance with that which is external; yet the two make one, for the thought is just as much part of that person as the external is to which looks, speech, and actions belong. Union exists however when the latter - looks, speech, and action - are in agreement with the thought. So much for these remarks added by way of illustration.
