Notes on this text (3)

1 اَلْآنَ تَتَجَيَّشِينَ يَا بِنْتَ ٱلْجُيُوشِ. قَدْ أَقَامَ عَلَيْنَا مِتْرَسَةً. يَضْرِبُونَ قَاضِيَ إِسْرَائِيلَ بِقَضِيبٍ عَلَى خَدِّهِ. 2 «أَمَّا أَنْتِ يَا بَيْتَ لَحْمِ أَفْرَاتَةَ، وَأَنْتِ صَغِيرَةٌ أَنْ تَكُونِي بَيْنَ أُلُوفِ يَهُوذَا، فَمِنْكِ يَخْرُجُ لِي ٱلَّذِي يَكُونُ مُتَسَلِّطًا عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَمَخَارِجُهُ مُنْذُ ٱلْقَدِيمِ، مُنْذُ أَيَّامِ ٱلْأَزَلِ». 3 لِذَلِكَ يُسَلِّمُهُمْ إِلَى حِينَمَا تَكُونُ قَدْ وَلَدَتْ وَالِدَةٌ، ثُمَّ تَرْجِعُ بَقِيَّةُ إِخْوَتِهِ إِلَى بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. 4 وَيَقِفُ وَيَرْعَى بِقُدْرَةِ ٱلرَّبِّ، بِعَظَمَةِ ٱسْمِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِهِ، وَيَثْبُتُونَ. لِأَنَّهُ ٱلْآنَ يَتَعَظَّمُ إِلَى أَقَاصِي ٱلْأَرْضِ. 5 وَيَكُونُ هَذَا سَلَامًا. إِذَا دَخَلَ أَشُّورُ فِي أَرْضِنَا، وَإِذَا دَاسَ فِي قُصُورِنَا، نُقِيمُ عَلَيْهِ سَبْعَةَ رُعَاةٍ وَثَمَانِيَةً مِنْ أُمَرَاءِ ٱلنَّاسِ، 6 فَيَرْعَوْنَ أَرْضَ أَشُّورَ بِٱلسَّيْفِ، وَأَرْضَ نِمْرُودَ فِي أَبْوَابِهَا، فَيَنْفُذُ مِنْ أَشُّورَ إِذَا دَخَلَ أَرْضَنَا وَإِذَا دَاسَ تُخُومَنَا. 7 وَتَكُونُ بَقِيَّةُ يَعْقُوبَ فِي وَسَطِ شُعُوبٍ كَثِيرِينَ كَٱلنَّدَى مِنْ عِنْدِ ٱلرَّبِّ، كَٱلْوَابِلِ عَلَى ٱلْعُشْبِ ٱلَّذِي لَا يَنْتَظِرُ إِنْسَانًا وَلَا يَصْبِرُ لِبَنِي ٱلْبَشَرِ. 8 وَتَكُونُ بَقِيَّةُ يَعْقُوبَ بَيْنَ ٱلْأُمَمِ فِي وَسَطِ شُعُوبٍ كَثِيرِينَ كَٱلْأَسَدِ بَيْنَ وُحُوشِ ٱلْوَعْرِ، كَشِبْلِ ٱلْأَسَدِ بَيْنَ قُطْعَانِ ٱلْغَنَمِ، ٱلَّذِي إِذَا عَبَرَ يَدُوسُ وَيَفْتَرِسُ وَلَيْسَ مَنْ يُنْقِذُ. 9 لِتَرْتَفِعْ يَدُكَ عَلَى مُبْغِضِيكَ وَيَنْقَرِضْ كُلُّ أَعْدَائِكَ. 10 «وَيَكُونُ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، أَنِّي أَقْطَعُ خَيْلَكَ مِنْ وَسَطِكَ، وَأُبِيدُ مَرْكَبَاتِكَ. 11 وَأَقْطَعُ مُدُنَ أَرْضِكَ، وَأَهْدِمُ كُلَّ حُصُونِكَ. 12 وَأَقْطَعُ ٱلسِّحْرَ مِنْ يَدِكَ، وَلَا يَكُونُ لَكَ عَائِفُونَ. 13 وَأَقْطَعُ تَمَاثِيلَكَ ٱلْمَنْحُوتَةَ وَأَنْصَابَكَ مِنْ وَسَطِكَ، فَلَا تَسْجُدُ لِعَمَلِ يَدَيْكَ فِي مَا بَعْدُ. 14 وَأَقْلَعُ سَوَارِيَكَ مِنْ وَسَطِكَ وَأُبِيدُ مُدُنَكَ. 15 وَبِغَضَبٍ وَغَيْظٍ أَنْتَقِمُ مِنَ ٱلْأُمَمِ ٱلَّذِينَ لَمْ يَسْمَعُوا».

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Quotes verse 5:2 Justin Martyr, First Apology (Chapters XXXIII–XXXVIII)

    He spoke thus: "And thou, Bethlehem, the land of Judah, art not the least among the princes of Judah; for out of thee shall come forth a Governor, who shall feed My people." Now there is a village in the land of the Jews, thirty-five stadia from Jerusalem, in which Jesus Christ was born, as you can ascertain also from …

  2. Quotes verse 5:2–4 Augustine of Hippo, The City of God (Book XVIII, Chapters 30–32)

    And He shall stand, and see, and feed His flock in the strength of the Lord, and in the dignity of the name of the Lord His God: for now shall He be magnified even to the utmost of the earth." The prophet Jonah, not so much by speech as by his own painful experience, prophesied Christ's death and resurrection …

  3. Quotes verse 5:2 John Chrysostom, Homilies on the Gospel of Matthew (Homily VI)

    And the place likewise, and the time, he puts down, to bring to our remembrance ancient prophecies; whereof one was uttered by Micah, saying, "And thou, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, art by no means the least among the princes of Judah;" and the other by the patriarch Jacob, distinctly marking out to us the time, and setting forth …

    Out of thee shall come forth unto Me a Ruler, who shall feed My people Israel: and His goings forth are from the beginning, from days of eternity.

  5. Quotes verse 5:2 John Chrysostom, Homilies on the Gospel of Matthew (Homily VII)

    For surely "his goings forth" were not "from of old, from everlasting." And how can that suit him which is said at the beginning, "Out of thee shall He come forth:" Zorobabel not having been born in Judæa, but in Babylon, whence also he was called Zorobabel, because he had his origin there?
