属天的奥秘 第1145节

(一滴水译,2018-2023)

1145、“这些是从挪亚的儿子出生的”表示古教会的教义和敬拜的衍生物,古教会一般是指“挪亚”,这从前面(89,469-474,610节)“出生”的含义清楚可知。就外在意义或字义而言,众所周知,“出生”或“诞生”是指一代人从另一代人的出生;但就内义而言,一切事物都关注属天和属灵之物,也就是关注仁与信的事物。因此,“出生”或“诞生”在此表示教会事物,因而表示教义事务,这一点从下文看得更清楚。

[NCE]1145. The symbolism of these are the births of Noah's sons as the doctrinal matters and types of worship that developed in the ancient church, which in general is Noah, can be seen from the symbolism of births, discussed above [89, 469-474, 610].
The superficial or literal meaning of births, of course, is the generating of one person from another, but on an inner level everything focuses on heavenly and spiritual elements, or the properties of charity and faith. So the births here have to do with aspects of religion and consequently with doctrinal affairs. This will be easier to see from what follows.

Potts(1905-1910) 1145

1145. These are the nativities of the sons of Noah. That these signify derivations of the doctrinals and worships of the Ancient Church, which in general is "Noah," is evident from the signification of "nativities" (of which above). In the external or literal sense, "nativities" or "births," as is known, are generations of one from another; but in the internal sense all things have regard to what is celestial and spiritual, that is, to the things of charity and of faith. Thus here the "nativities" are those of the church, consequently are doctrinal matters, as will be made more clear in what follows.

Elliott(1983-1999) 1145

1145. That 'these are the generations of the sons of Noah' means derivative matters of doctrine and derivative forms of worship in the Ancient Church, which in general is Noah, is clear from the meaning of 'generations', dealt with already. In the external or literal sense, generations involve one being begotten from another, as is well known; but in the internal sense everything has regard to things that are celestial and spiritual, that is, to what are matters of charity and of faith. Thus 'generations' here means things of the Church, and therefore matters of doctrine, as will be better evident from what follows.

Latin(1748-1756) 1145

1145. 'Hae nativitates filiorum Noahi': quod significent derivationes doctrinalium et cultuum Antiquae Ecclesiae quae in genere est Noahus, constat ex significatione 'nativitatum,' de qua prius: nativitates in sensu externo seu litterali sunt generationes unius ab altero, ut notum est; sed in sensu interno omnia spectant caelestia et spiritualia, seu quae charitatis sunt et fidei, ita hic 'nativitates' sunt quae Ecclesiae, proinde doctrinalium, ut a sequentibus melius patebit.
