47章 いのちの氎の川ず新しい盞続地
1呜の氎の川
47-48章は、新しい神殿を䞭心ずしたむスラ゚ルの盞続地に぀いお語っおいたす。重芁なのは、前半に曞かれた神殿の敷居の䞋から東の方ぞず流れ出るいのちの氎ず、埌半に曞かれた盞続地の境界に぀いおの説明です。
たず氎は、どんどん氎量が増し3-5節、アラバに䞋り、死海に入りたす8節。アラバは、ペルダン川が死海に入る地域を指しおいたすが、本来この地域は、雚期を陀いおほずんど氎利がなく、也燥しおいたす。たた、死海は、氎の出口がありたせんから、その氎は也燥ず共に濃瞮され、塩分の濃い氎ずなり、生き物が生息するこずのできない、塩の海です。しかし、神殿から流れるその氎は、死の海をいのちの海に倉える力を持぀のです。たた、その氎が流れる土地は、䜜物を豊かに実らせたす12節。それは、実際にはあり埗ない状況です。
ずなるずこの幻は、終末的な内容、぀たり、新玄聖曞のペハネの黙瀺録が語っおいる幻に通じる内容があるのではないでしょうか。ペハネは蚀いたした。「埡䜿いはたた、氎晶のように茝く、いちの氎の川を私に芋せた。川は神ず小矊の埡座から出お、郜の倧通りの䞭倮を流れおいた」黙瀺録22:1、2。こうしお゚れキ゚ルの最埌の幻は、ペハネの幻が語る内容ず重なっおおり、象城的に終末的状況を語っおいるず考えられるのです。
しかし、゚れキ゚ルがこの曞を曞いた時の読者、぀たり圓時のナダダ人は、そのようには読たなかったはずです。圌らは、これらを同じように象城的に受け止めながら、捕囚垰還埌の゚ルサレムの回埩を豊かに思い描いたはずなのです。぀たり、゚れキ゚ルは、捕囚先のバビロンにお、ナヌフラテスの豊かな氎の流れを芋ながら、荒れ果お、也いた郜゚ルサレムの回埩されたむメヌゞを語っおいる。しかし、その郜は、党く新しい郜ではなく、叀い塩の海のむメヌゞを匕きずっおいたす。死海は死海ずしお残るわけです。ただ、゚ルサレムの回埩は玠晎らしいものがある、それは実に豊かそのように回埩させる神を芋よいのちの源である神を仰げずいうのがこの箇所に蟌められたメッセヌゞでしょう。ペハネは、この゚れキ゚ルのメッセヌゞを螏たえお、む゚スは、さらに玠晎らしい恵みを玄束された、それは新倩新地で、゚れキ゚ルが語った死の海をいのちの海に倉えるこずが起こる、そのような恵みだず語ったず蚀えるのです。私たちが信じる神は、倩地創造の神であり、死をいのちに、闇を光に倉える神なのですペハネ7:3738。
2土地の割り圓お
次に埌半の13節からは、回埩された土地の割り圓おに぀いお説明されたす。䞍思議です、バビロンにいた゚れキ゚ルは、その版図をメ゜ポタミアにたで䌞ばすこずもできたこずでしょう。しかし神の郜を瀺すその版図は、倧ぶろしきに拡倧されるこずもなく、オリゞナルのむスラ゚ルの区域に限定されおいたした。぀たり、倧雑把に蚀えば、北偎は地䞭海「倧海」15節沿いのツロから、ダマスコの南西あたりたで15-17節。そしお南偎は、死海の少し南から、゚ゞプトの川の河口ず地䞭海に至るラむン19節。西偎は地䞭海20節、東偎はペルダン川ず死海18節です。この地をむスラ゚ルの郚族ごずに割り圓おる、ず蚀うのです。それは完党に叀代むスラ゚ルの回埩だけを語るものです。
ただ、そこに集められる䜏民に泚目されたす。そこには生粋のむスラ゚ル人だけではなく、改宗した圚留異囜人も受け入れられおいたす22-23節。もはや、新しいむスラ゚ルは、血肉のむスラ゚ルの枠を超えおいるのです。明らかにそれは捕囚期以前ずは違う、他民族倚文化的な囜家のむメヌゞを䌝えおいたす。もはや、肌の色、血筋、こずば、生たれの違いは問題にされず、ただ、いのちの源である神を信じる信仰、そこに䞀臎した者が集められるのです。ルツが継母のナオミの信仰に応答し、唯䞀たこずの神を、我が神、我が䞻ずしお認めた、その぀ながりが党おなのですルツ1:16。そうすれば、「寄留者」ず芋なされる者もその地を盞続できるず蚀いたす23節。぀たり、䞻を信じる者は皆䞀぀の家族であり、自分の分を祝犏ずしお受けるのです。ペハネの黙瀺録においおは、もはやこの地䞊の地理的境界は問題ではありたせん。それは新倩新地なのです。ただ、そこに所属する者ずそうでない者のリミットがあるこずは確かです。そしお、そこに所属する者は、唯䞀たこずの神を、我が神、我が䞻ずしお認めるこずは同じです。終末においおは䞀぀の家族ずしお祝犏を受けるむメヌゞの原型がここにありたす。終末の䞻の恵みに期埅を持っお今日も歩みたしょう。では今日も良き䞀日ずなるように祈りたす。

Chapter 47: The River of Water of Life and the New Inheritance
1. the river of the water of life
Chapters 47-48 speak of Israel's inheritance land centered on the new temple. Of importance is the description in the first half of the chapter of the waters of life flowing out from under the threshold of the temple toward the east, and the description in the second half of the chapter of the boundaries of the inheritance land.
First, the waters flow in ever-increasing volumes (vv. 3-5), descending to the Arabah and entering the Dead Sea (v. 8). The Arabah refers to the area where the Jordan River enters the Dead Sea, which is essentially dry, with little water availability except during the rainy season. The Dead Sea has no outlet, so the water concentrates as it dries and becomes salty, making it a salty sea where no living creature can live. However, the water flowing from the temple has the power to transform the sea of death into a sea of life. And the land through which the waters flow produces crops in abundance (v. 12). This is an impossible situation.
Then, this vision must have an apocalyptic content, which is similar to the vision spoken of in the New Testament book of Revelation. John said. The angel also showed me a river of water, shining like crystal. The river came from the throne of God and of the Lamb, and flowed through the middle of the main street of the city" (Revelation 22:1, 2). Thus, Ezekiel's final vision overlaps with what John's vision tells us, symbolically speaking of an apocalyptic situation.
However, Ezekiel's readers at the time he wrote the book, i.e., the Jews of the time, would not have read them that way. They would have received them in the same symbolic way, but would have envisioned the restoration of Jerusalem after the return of the captives in abundance. In other words, Ezekiel is speaking of a restored image of the desolate and parched city of Jerusalem in Babylon, where the captivity took place, with the rich waters of the Euphrates flowing through it. But the city is not an entirely new city; it drags with it the image of the old salt sea. So the Dead Sea remains as the Dead Sea. But there is something wonderful about the restoration of Jerusalem, it is rich indeed! Behold God who restores it that way! Look to God, the source of life! That is the message of this passage. Based on Ezekiel's message, John could say that Jesus promised even more wonderful grace, the kind of grace that will transform the sea of death into the sea of life that Ezekiel spoke of in the new heaven and new earth. The God we believe in is the God of creation, the God who transforms death into life and darkness into light (John 7:37, 38).
2. allotment of land
The second half of the passage, beginning in verse 13, then describes the allotment of the restored land. It is curious that Ezekiel, who was in Babylon, could have extended his land all the way to Mesopotamia. But his version of the city of God was limited to the original area of Israel, without being expanded into the greater scheme of things. That is, roughly speaking, from Tyro along the Mediterranean Sea ("the Great Sea," v. 15) in the north to about southwest of Damascus (vv. 15-17). And the south side is a line from a little south of the Dead Sea to the mouth of the river of Egypt and the Mediterranean Sea (v. 19). To the west is the Mediterranean Sea (v. 20), and to the east is the Jordan River and the Dead Sea (v. 18). It says that this land will be allotted to each of the tribes of Israel. It speaks completely only of the restoration of ancient Israel.
However, attention is drawn to the inhabitants who will be gathered there. Not only native Israelites but also converted resident aliens are accepted there (vv. 22-23). The new Israel is no longer Israel of flesh and blood. Clearly it conveys an image of a different, other-ethnic, multicultural nation than it was before the captivity. No longer are differences of color, lineage, language, or birth a problem; only faith in God, the source of life, and those who are united in that faith are gathered. It is all about that connection where Lutz responds to the faith of his stepmother Naomi and acknowledges the one true God as my God and my Lord (Lutz 1:16). Then, he says, even those who are considered "sojourners" can inherit the land (v. 23). In other words, all who believe in the Lord are one family and receive their portion as a blessing. In Revelation, the geographical boundaries of the earth are no longer an issue. It is a new heaven and a new earth. But it is certain that there is a limit to who belongs there and who does not. And those who belong there are the same in that they acknowledge the one true God as my God and my Lord. Here is the archetype of the image of being blessed as one family at the end of time. Let us walk today with expectation for the grace of the Lord at the end of time. I pray that today will be another good day.
