84:1 Cat de placute sunt locasurile Tale, Doamne al ostirilor! INTRODUCERE. - Psalmul 84 a fost compus de David, "unsul" Domnului (v. 9; 4T 534), intr-o vreme cand era alungat din Ierusalim. El este o inflacarata exprimare lirica a devotiunii si a iubirii pentru Casa lui Iehova si pentru serviciul Lui de inchinare. Psalmul pare sa descrie fericirea acelora care locuiesc in curtile sfinte (v. 1-4. 9-11); fericirea acelora care fac pelerinaje la sanctuar (v. 5-8); si fericirea acelora care, lipsiti de privilegiul de a se inchina in Casa lui Dumnezeu, isi pun totusi increderea in Dumnezeu. Patosul acestui poem sensibil este sporit de ritmul elegiac in care sunt formate versurile evreiesti. Simtamintele acestui distins poem sacru sunt mai mult decat personale; ele sunt cele mai profunde sentimente ale oricarui copil al lui Dumnezeu care, lipsit de privilegiul comuniunii cu semeni crestini, a dorit mereu comuniunea cu fratii sai in serviciul de inchinare in grup. Psalmul 84 poate fi comparat cu Psalm 42. Se spune ca Isabel Alison si Marion Harris, scotiene adepte ale presbiterianismului, au cantat Psalm 84 pe melodia "Martiri" cand au mers la esafod. Cu privire la preambul, vezi p. 617, 629. 1. Placute. Sau " atragatoare". Locasurile.[Corturile, KJV]. Literal, " locuri de locuit". 84:2 Sufletul meu suspina si tanjeste de dor dupa curtile Domnului, inima si carnea mea striga catre Dumnezeul cel viu! Sufletul meu suspina.[ Sufletul meu doreste, KJV]. O astfel de ravna si caldura ar trebui sa caracterizeze rugaciunea crestinului (vezi 4T 534). Striga. Ebr. ranan, in general, " a striga de bucurie", (vezi Psalm 98,4). Dumnezeul cel Viu. Spre deosebire de idoli, care sunt morti (vezi Psalm 42,2, singurul loc din Psalmi unde mai apare expresia "Dumnezeul cel viu"; cf. Iosua 3,10; Osea 1,10). In NT expresia "viul Dumnezeu" apare deseori (vezi Matei 16,16; Ioan 6,69; Fapte 14,15; Romani 9,26; 2 Corinteni 3,3; Evrei 3,12; Apocalipsa 7,2; etc.). 84:3 Pana si pasarea isi gaseste o casa acolo, si randunica un cuib unde isi pune puii Ah! altarele Tale, Doamne al ostirilor, Imparatul meu si Dumnezeul meu! Pasarea. [ Vrabia, KJV]. Atat vrabia cat si randunica erau obisnuite in Palestina. Altarele Tale. Sanctuarul (prin metonimie). Sensul general al versetului, a carui concluzie poetul o subintelege, este ca pasarile au intrare libera in curtile sfinte ale sanctuarului, isi fac acolo cuibul fara sa le deranjeze nimeni, in timp ce psalmistul este alungat de la izvorul bucuriei sale, nu i recunoaste dreptul de a se inchina in curtile sfinte. Apelul nostalgic al acestui verset este una din cele mai delicate si mai frumoase exprimari ale dorului de casa din toata literatura. Ideea este accentuata in v. 10. 84:4 Ferice de cei ce locuiesc in Casa Ta! Caci ei tot mai pot sa Te laude. Ferice. [Binecuvantati, KJV]. Cea dintai binecuvantare revarsata asupra acelora care locuiesc in curtile sfinte (vezi 1Cronici 9,19; 26.1; observa caracterului potrivit al preambulului la psalm). Psalmistul ii invidiaza pe aceia care isi devoteaza viata in serviciul de la sanctuar. Tot mai pot sa Te laude. Sanctuarul este un loc de continua lauda, o pregustare a cerului. Oprire.[Selah, KJV]. Vezi p. 629. 84:5 Ferice de cei ce-si pun taria in Tine, in a caror inima locuieste increderea. Ferice. [Binecuvantati, KJV]. A doua binecuvantare este revarsata asupra acelora care Il pastreaza pe Dumnezeu in inima cand calatoresc la Ierusalim (vezi v. 4.12) cu ocazia marilor sarbatori nationale. Taria. Fericit e omul care isi da seama ca Dumnezeu este izvorul tariei sale (vezi v.7)! Increderea. [Caile, KJV]. Ebr. mesilloth, "drumuri mari". S-a sugerat urmatoarea interpretare a pasajului: fericit e omul care cugeta la drumurile care duc la sanctuar, care se pregateste sa calatoreasca pe ele, care se hotaraste in inima lui sa faca pelerinajul la Ierusalim si sa se inchine in sanctuar. Cu prilejul fiecarui pelerinaj el anticipeaza semnele cunoscute ale drumului si totdeauna, dupa aceea, fiecare pas al drumului cunoscut ii staruie in minte. 84:6 Cand strabat acestia Valea Plangerii, o prefac intr-un loc plin de izvoare, si ploaia timpurie o acopera cu binecuvantari. Valea Plangerii [Valea Baca, KJV]. Ebr. baka'. Sensul cuvantului este indoielnic. In alta parte baka' este tradus "dud", dar identitatea botanica exacta este nesigura (vezi la 2 Samuel 5,23). LXX si Vulgata traduc expresia "valea Baca" prin "valea lacrimilor". Prin credinta, nadejdea si bucuria lor pelerinii transforma "valea lacrimilor" intr-un "izvor". Aceasta este o ilustratie frumoasa a efectului adevaratei religii, care raspandeste bucurie si mangaiere acolo unde inainte erau doar tristete si necaz (vezi Isaia 35,1.2.6.7). Izvoare. Adevaratii peregrini pe drumul spre Sionul ceresc sapa fantani in pustie pentru aceia care vin in urma lor. Crestinii au facut intotdeauna din lume un loc mai bun de trait. Daca inima noastra sta bine cu Dumnezeu, vom avea odihna chiar si din cele mai nenorocite experiente ale vietii. O acopera cu binecuvantari. [Umple iazurile, KJV]. Poetul vede terenul arid acoperit cu izvoare de apa. Binecuvantarea lui Dumnezeu odihneste peste tot ce peregrinii privesc, deoarece inima lor e plina de bucurie in timp ce calatoresc. Inchisoarea din Bedford a lui Bunyan a devenit un izvor de binecuvantare pentru ceilalti datorita Calatoriei crestinului. Experienta lui Florence Nightingale cu febra, microbii si cangrena a avut ca rezultat o revolutie in grija acordata in spital. 84:7 Ei merg din putere in putere, si se infatiseaza inaintea lui Dumnezeu in Sion. Din putere in putere. In calatoria acestor peregrini nu exista oboseala de durata. Ei sunt impinsi mereu inainte de voioasa anticipare a inchinarii in Sion. Orice manifestare de putere in calatorie inmulteste vigoarea necesara pentru etapa urmatoare a calatoriei (vezi Isaia 40,31; Ioan 1,16; Romani 1,17; 2 Corinteni 3,18). Aici se afla o ilustratie placuta a vietii crestinilor care calatoresc impreuna spre Noul Ierusalim - prin lauda, rugaciunea si mangaierea lor reciproca, ei se imbarbateaza unul pe altul pe cale, intarindu-si credinta in Dumnezeu si facand calea mai putin dificila pe masura ce se apropie de cetate (vezi Evrei 10,25; 5T 93). Se infatiseaza inaintea lui Dumnezeu. Calatoria s-a incheiat cu succes. 84:8 Doamne, Dumnezeul ostirilor, asculta rugaciunea mea! Ia aminte, Dumnezeul lui Iacov! (Oprire). Ia aminte. Vezi Psalm 20.1. Oprire. [Selah, KJV]. Vezi la p. 629. 84:9 Tu, care esti scutul nostru, vezi, Dumnezeule, si priveste fata unsului Tau! Scutul. Asa dupa cum e demonstrat de ugaritica (vezi p. 618) magen poate fi un verb, care inseamna "a implora". Expresia poate fi atunci tradusa: "Te imploram, priveste, Dumnezeule". Unsului Tau. Vezi 1 Samuel 16,1; 2 Samuel 22,51; Psalm 89,20. David se roaga ca Dumnezeu sa priveasca cu bunavointa catre el (vezi Psalm 119,132). Exista in versetul acesta o nuanta foarte delicata in trecerea la persoana a treia. 84:10 Caci mai mult face o zi in curtile Tale decat o mie in alta parte; eu vreau mai bine sa stau in pragul Casei Dumnezeului meu, decat sa locuiesc in corturile rautatii! Decat o mie. David ar fi petrecut mai bine o zi in curtile sanctuarului decat o mie in oricare alt loc de pe pamant. Afirmatia lui David este cu atat mai impresionanta cu cat el era exilat cand a compus psalmul. Adevaratul copil al lui Dumnezeu are intotdeauna o mare placere cand participa la serviciul de inchinare. Sa stau in pragul. [Sa fiu portar, KJV]. Psalmistul ar prefera sa fie un slujitor la Templu decat sa se bucure de onoare printre straini, instrainat de Dumnezeu si de sanctuar. 84:11 Caci Domnul Dumnezeu este un soare si un scut, Domnul da indurare si slava, si nu lipseste de nici un bine pe cei ce duc o viata fara prihana. Soare. Dumnezeu este izvorul luminii, material si spiritual (vezi Psalm 27,1; Isaia 60,19.20; Maleahi 4,2; Apocalipsa 21,23; 22,25). Expresia "Soarele neprihanirii" e aplicata la Mesia (Maleahi 4,2). Scut. Vezi la Psalm 3,3; cf. GC 673. Indurare si slava. Crestinul gaseste har launtric aici, in imparatia harului; slava exterioara, acolo, in imparatia slavei (vezi Apocalipsa 21,11.24). Nici un bine. Vezi Psalm 34,10; 1 Corinteni 2,9; Efeseni 3,20; Filipeni 4,19. 84:12 Doamne al ostirilor, ferice de omul care se increde in Tine! Ferice. [Binecuvantat, KJV]. Vezi la Psalm 1,1. A treia si ultima binecuvantare a psalmului se revarsa asupra acelora care, lipsiti de privilegiul de a locui in curtile lui Dumnezeu sau de a face pelerinaj la sanctuar, se inchina lui Dumnezeu prin ochiul credintei, in spirit si in adevar (vezi Ioan 4,20-24), punandu-si deplina incredere in El. Binecuvantarea aceasta este experienta finala a celui care se increde in Dumnezeu pentru mantuire personala si prezenta. Compara cu invataturile apostolului Pavel legate de subiectul acesta, asa cum sunt expuse in Galateni 2,2. COMENTARIILE LUI ELLEN G.

Special note for ANDROID SmartPhones
I recommend to download PhoneMe emulator for Android from here.
Especially I recommend phoneME Advanced - Foundation Profile + MIDP High Resolution b168 rev20547 from here, or from here.
Then you have to build your application, to transfer the .jar and .jad files on your mobile phone and run using this nice emulator.
1. Install a Zip Utility from Android Market.
2. Install a File Manager from Android Market.
3. Download and install PhoneMe, as mentioned above.
4. Build your application by using Download Multilingual Service or Dynamic Download (zip).
5. Copy the zip file into your Android Phone and unzip the content in a folder, and then write down the path to the unzipped files and the name of the .jad file.
6. Launch PhoneMe from your smartphone.
7. Inside PhoneMe, write to the main window the path and the name to the .jad file, above mentioned. Will look something like: file:///mnt/sd/download/BiblePhone.jad and then press enter.
8. The application will be installed, and next a hyperlink will be available below the above mentioned textbox. On this way you can install as many of MIDP application you like on your Android Phone.
How to install the application in Java Mobile enabled phones
It is possible now to have the Holy Scriptures on your mobile phone and to read
it wherever you are due to the Mobile Information Device Profile (MIDP)
technology in 1.0 and 2.0 versions, developed for Java applications.
A good advice is to try in the beginning the MIDP 1.0 / 128 Kbytes version, and
progressively to advance to MIDP 2.0 and larger volumes (512 Kbytes or more).
The application is available for MIDP 2.0, MIDP 1.0. You have only to select one
table on the field MIDP2.0 or MIDP1.0, according to the desired Bible version.
Then, you shall make a click on the JAR (Java Archive) file in order to obtain
the software to be installed on your mobile phone.
I recommend you to start with STARTER(MIDP1.0old) edition, then to continue with
INTERMEDIATE(MIDP1.0), and in the end, if the mobile phone supports this thing,
to try to install the ADVANCED (MIDP2.0) edition. Also, start with 128 kbytes
volumes, continue with 512 kbytes, and at the end try the version in one file.
There are cases where the mobile phone requires so called JAD (Java Descriptor)
files. These JAD files has to be
uploaded, on this case, together with the desired JAR files(s).
There are different methods to download the applications in your mobile phone as
follows:
1. Directly from Internet by using a WAP or GPRS connection
2. By using the infrared port of the mobile phone
3. By wireless Bluetooth access to the mobile phone
4. By cable link between PC ad mobile phone
5. If none from the above cases are valid
Next, we shall examine each case in order to have a successfully installation of
the software.
1. Directly from Internet by using a WAP or GPRS connection
If your have Internet access on your mobile phone (e.g. WAP or GPRS), it is
enough to access
https://biblephone.intercer.net/wap/ from the browser of the mobile phone,
and to access the desired Bible version, and then to make an option about
MIDP1.0 or MIDP2.0, and finally to select the desired module (e.g. one or more).
After the last selection, the desired version will be downloaded on your mobile
phone.
Many phones have only this option for installing JAVA appplications.
2. By using the infrared port of the mobile phone
Sometimes there is a need for a special uploader software for specific mobile
phones.
If you don't have access to Internet directly from your mobile phone, then you
shall have to pass to this step requiring to have infrared ports on your mobile
phone and on the computer.
a. On this case, you will download the application by using the computer from
the Internet (i.e. JAR files).
b. Once the application is downloaded (preferable on the desktop) you will have
to activate the infrared port on the mobile phone and align it with the infrared
port of the computer (preferable laptop).
c. Then a window will appear asking what file you want to send to the mobile
phone. Next, you will select the downloaded JAR file, and after OK, the mobile
phone will ask you if you want to load that file. You say YES and the
application will be downloaded on your mobile phone.
d. Probably, you will be asked by the mobile phone where you want to save it (e.g.
on the games or applications directories). After you made this selection, the
file will be ready to be loaded for run.
The displaying preference can be set inside the application in order to have
larger fonts, full screen display etc.
3. By wireless Bluetooth access to the mobile phone
Sometimes there is a need for a special uploader software for specific mobile
phones.
This situation is similar with the infrared case. You have only to activate
Bluetooth access on your mobile phone (check if exists) and on the computer (check
if exists).
4. By cable link between PC ad mobile phone
Sometimes there is a need for a special uploader software for specific
mobile phones.
On this case the steps are as follows:
a. On this case, you will download the application by using the computer from
the Internet (i.e. JAR files).
b. Once the application is downloaded (preferable on the desktop) you will have
to set up the wired connection between the mobile phone and the computer. Next,
you will start the synchronization / data transfer application and download the
JAR file in your mobile phone. Surely, you will have to consult the CD of your
mobile phone.
c. By this application you shall transfer into your mobile phone the JAR file in
the games or applications directories. Next, you will have to select for run the
JAR desired file.
5. If none from the above cases are valid
On this unhappy case, I recommend you to find a friend with a laptop having
infrared / Bluetooth capabilities, or to buy a data link cable, or to change
your current model of mobile phone.
Unfortunately, some models of mobile phones require only WAP/GPRS in order to
download and run Java applications.
Sometimes there is a need for a special uploader software for specific mobile
phones. Therefore check the documentation of them and also the page for specific
models.
Why so many versions? Simple, because not all the mobile phones support the
Bible in one file with MIDP 2.0 (the most advanced for the time being).
