属天的奥秘 第1324节

(一滴水译,2018-2023)

1324、“于是,耶和华使他们从那里分散在全地面上”表示他们不被承认,这从前面所说的(11:4;1308-1309节)清楚可知,那里有同样的话。“他们就停止建造那城了”表示这种教义不被接受,这从“城”的含义清楚可知,“城”是指教义,如前所示(402节);这也可从前面(11:4-5;1302-1313节)关于“建造一座城和一座塔”的阐述清楚看出来。由此明显可知,这种内在包含自我之爱或自我崇拜的教义或敬拜是这个古教会所不允许的;下文(1327节)会解释其中的原因。

[NCE]1324. The meaning of Jehovah scattered them over the face of the whole earth as the fact that they were not acknowledged can be seen from statements above at verse 4 [1308-1309], where the same words occur.
[2] The meaning of they stopped building the city as the fact that doctrine of this kind was not accepted can be seen from the symbolism of a city as doctrine — demonstrated earlier, in 402 — and from remarks above at verses 4-5 about the building of the city and tower [1302-1313].
These remarks show that such a doctrine (or such worship), holding self-love (self-worship) deep inside it, was not allowed in this ancient church,{*1} for the reason given in the next verse [1327].

Footnotes:
{*1} "This ancient church" is the first of three mentioned by Swedenborg in 1279-1282. [LHC]

Potts(1905-1910) 1324

1324. And Jehovah scattered them upon the faces of all the earth. That this signifies that they were not acknowledged, is evident from what was said before (at verse 4), where the same words occur. "And they left off to build the city"-that this signifies that such doctrine was not received, is evident from the signification of a "city," as being doctrine (as was shown above, n. 402); and from what was said at verses 4 and 5 concerning the building of a city and a tower. From all this it is evident that such doctrine, or such worship, wherein interiorly there is the love of self, or the worship of self, was not permitted to this Ancient Church, and this for the reason explained in the verse that next follows.

Elliott(1983-1999) 1324

1324. That 'Jehovah scattered them over the facea of the whole earth' means that they were not acknowledged is clear from what has been stated already at verse 4 where the same words occur.

Notes

a lit. the faces

[1324a] That 'they left off building the city' means that such doctrine was not received is clear from the meaning of 'a city' as doctrine, as shown already in 402, and also from what has been stated above at verses 4, 5, about building a city and a tower These considerations show that such doctrine or worship which inwardly contains love of self, that is, worship of self, was not allowed with this Ancient Church, and the reason is given in the very next verse


Latin(1748-1756) 1324

1324. Quod 'dispersit Jehovah eos super facies totius terrae' significet quod non agniti fuerint, constat ab illis quae prius ad vers. 4 dicta sunt, ubi eadem verba. Quod 'cessarunt aedificare urbem' significet quod talis doctrina non recepta, constat ex significatione 'urbis' quod sit doctrina, ut ostensum prius n. 402, tum ex illis quae supra ad vers. 4 et 5, de aedificare urbem et turrim. Ex his patet quod talis doctrina seu talis cultus in quo interius amor sui seu cultus sui, apud Antiquam hanc Ecclesiam non permissus, et quidem ex causa de qua in versu mox sequente.
