4:1 Ingerul, care vorbea cu mine, s-a intors si m-a trezit ca pe un om, pe care-l trezesti din somnul lui. M-a trezit. Incidentul acesta marcheaza trecerea de la o viziune la alta. Profetul era probabil intr-o stare de adanca meditatie, iar acum atentia lui este indreptata catre o noua prezentare simbolica. Compara Daniel 8,18; 10,8.9; vezi comentariul la cap. 1,8. 4:2 El m-a intrebat: Ce vezi? Eu am raspuns: M-am uitat si iata ca este un sfesnic cu totul de aur, si deasupra lui un vas cu untdelemn si pe el sapte candele, cu sapte tevi pentru candelele care sunt in varful sfesnicului. Sfesnic. Simbolismul este evident imprumutat de la sfesnicul din Sanctuar. Cel din vechiul tabernacol avea sapte candele (Exod 25,31-40). Templul lui Solomon avea zece candelabre; cinci pe dreapta si cinci pe stanga (1Regi 7,49). Actualul sfesnic nu este, totusi, ca cel dinainte si poarta propria invatatura distinctiva. Vas. Acesta continea untdelemnul, cu care erau alimentate cele sapte candele prin sapte tevi. 4:3 Si langa el sunt doi maslini, unul la dreapta vasului, si altul la stanga lui. Maslini. Potrivit cu v. 12, acesti pomi ofereau ulei vasului central, care, la randul lui, aproviziona candelele. 4:4 Si, luand iarasi cuvantul, am zis ingerului, care vorbea cu mine: Ce inseamna lucrurile acestea, domnul meu? Verset ce nu a fost comentat. 4:5 Ingerul, care vorbea cu mine, mi-a raspuns: Nu stii ce inseamna aceste lucruri? Eu am zis: Nu, domnul meu. Verset ce nu a fost comentat. 4:6 Atunci el a luat din nou cuvantul, si mi-a zis: Acesta este cuvantul Domnului catre Zorobabel, si suna astfel: Lucrul acesta nu se va face nici prin putere, nici prin tarie, ci prin Duhul Meu, zice Domnul ostirilor! Zorobabel. Pentru identitatea si lucrarea lui Zorobabel, vezi Ezra 2,1-4.5; vezi de asemenea p. 1073. Zorobabel reprezinta aici conducerea si administratia civila dupa cum Iosua (Zaharia 3,1) reprezinta conducerea religioasa a natiunii. Prin Duhul Meu. Untdelemnul dat de maslini (v. 3) simboliza Duhul Sfant (vezi COL 408). Numai harul divin putea birui toate obstacolele cu care se confruntau constructorii (vezi Vol. IV, p. 1073) Ierusalimului. Zorobabel si asociatii lui erau deprimati de slaba lor capacitate si de saracia mijloacelor pentru a duce mai departe lucrarea de restaurare impotriva opozitiei dusmanilor lor. Viziunea arata ca planurile lui Dumnezeu pentru Israel vor fi realizate nu prin ,,tarie” sau prin ,,putere” omeneasca, ci prin propriul Sau Duh si prin propria Sa putere. 4:7 Cine esti tu, munte mare, inaintea lui Zorobabel? Te vei preface intr-un loc ses. El va pune piatra cea mai insemnata in varful Templului, in mijlocul strigatelor de: Indurare, indurare cu ea! Munte mare. Simbolul dificultatilor aparent invincibile pe care Zorobabel avea sa le intampine in indeplinirea scopului sau (vezi comentariul la Isaia 2,2). Piatra cea mai insemnata. Zorobabel este asigurat ca va sfarsi lucrarea de refacere punand piatra cea mai insemnata sau piatra unghiulara, pe constructie. Compara 7T 170. Strigatelor. Acestea sunt fara indoiala strigate de bucurie ale acelora care erau de fata la asezarea pietrei unghiulare. 4:8 Cuvantul Domnului mi-a vorbit astfel: Verset ce nu a fost comentat. 4:9 Mainile lui Zorobabel au intemeiat Casa aceasta, si tot mainile lui o vor ispravi; si veti sti daca Domnul ostirilor m-a trimis la voi. Au intemeiat. Sau ,,Au pus temelia”. Vezi comentariul la Ezra 3,8. Ispravi. Vezi comentariul la Ezra 6,15. 4:10 Caci cine dispretuieste ziua inceputurilor slabe? Acesti sapte vor privi cu bucurie cumpana in mana lui Zorobabel. Acesti sapte sunt ochii Domnului, care cutreiera tot pamantul. Ziua inceputurilor slabe. Adica slabul progres atins pana acum. Vor privi cu bucurie. Sau ,,Se vor bucura”. Adica, la realizarea a ceea ce parea cu neputinta. Acesti sapte. Propozitia poate fi tradusa: ,,Acesti sapte sunt ochii lui Iehova alergand incoace si incolo pe tot pamantul”. Referirea este fara indoiala la acela sapte candele (v. 2). Ele sunt aici un simbol al atotstiintei si omniprezentei divine. ,,Cel ce pazeste pe Israel” nici nu dormiteaza, nici nu doarme (Psalmi 121,4). De pe marele Lui tron de sus, El supravegheaza treburile pamantului si realizeaza planurile voii Sale. Nimic nu scapa luarii Lui aminte (vezi Psalmi 139,1-12; vezi comentariul la Daniel 4,17). 4:11 Eu am luat cuvantul, si i-am zis: Ce inseamna acesti doi maslini, la dreapta sfesnicului si la stanga lui? Ce inseamna acesti? Semnificatia celor doi maslini (v. 3) inca nu fusese explicata. 4:12 Am luat a doua oara cuvantul, si i-am zis: Ce inseamna cele doua ramuri de maslin, care sunt langa cele doua tevi de aur, prin care curge uleiul auriu din el? Verset ce nu a fost comentat. 4:13 El mi-a raspuns: Nu stii ce inseamna? Eu am zis: Nu, domnul meu. Si el a zis: Verset ce nu a fost comentat. 4:14 Acestia sunt cei doi unsi, care stau inaintea Domnului intregului pamant. Doi unsi. Ei sunt descrisi ca stand ,,inaintea Domnului”. In mod simbolic maslinii dadeau untdelemn pentru candele (v. 12). Untdelemnul este un simbol al Duhului Sfant (vezi comentariul la v. 6). Prin urmare unsii sunt unelte ceresti prin care Duhul Sfant este dat fiintelor omenesti care sunt cu totul consacrate servirii Lui. ,,Misiunea celor doi unsi este de a duce lumina si putere poporului lui Dumnezeu” (TM 510). Se asteapta de la aceia care primesc o astfel de impartasire cereasca ca la randul lor sa transmita aceste binecuvantari altora. Ioan in Apocalipsa, de asemenea mentioneaza doi maslini si ii pune in paralela cu ,,cele doua sfesnice, care stau inaintea Domnului pamantului” (Apocalipsa 11,4). Prin simbolurile acestea el ii identifica pe cei doi martori care reprezinta ,,Scripturile Vechiului si Noului Testament ” (GC 267). Astfel, cu toate ca cei doi profeti au vazut simboluri asemanatoare, semnificatia acestor doua simboluri nu a fost identica. 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).
