1 Et l'Eternel parla à Moïse, en disant :

2 Parle aux enfants d'Israël, et qu'on prenne une offrande pour moi. Vous prendrez mon offrande de tout homme, dont le cœur [me] l'offrira volontairement.

3 Et c'est ici l'offrande que vous prendrez d'eux, de l'or, de l'argent, de l'airain,

4 De la pourpre, de l'écarlate, du cramoisi, du fin lin, des poils de chèvres,

5 Des peaux de moutons teintes en rouge, des peaux de taissons, du bois de Sittim,

6 De l'huile pour le luminaire, des odeurs aromatiques pour l'huile de l'onction, des drogues pour le parfum,

7 Des pierres d'Onyx, et Des pierres de remplages pour l'Ephod et pour le Pectoral,

8 Et ils me feront un Sanctuaire, et j'habiterai au milieu d'eux.

9 [Ils le feront] conformément à tout ce que je te vais montrer, selon le patron du pavillon, et [selon] le patron de tous ses ustensiles; vous le ferez donc ainsi.

10 Et ils feront une Arche de bois de Sittim; et sa longueur sera de deux coudées et demie, et sa largeur d'une coudée et demie, et sa hauteur d'une coudée et demie.

11 Et tu la couvriras de pur or, tu l'[en] couvriras par dehors et par-dedans; et tu feras sur elle un couronnement d'or tout autour.

12 Et tu fondras pour elle quatre anneaux d'or, que tu mettras à ses quatre coins, deux anneaux à l'un de ses côtés, et deux autres à l'autre côté.

13 Tu feras aussi des barres de bois de Sittim, et tu les couvriras d'or.

14 Puis tu feras entrer les barres dans les anneaux aux côtés de l'Arche, pour porter l'Arche avec elles.

15 Les barres seront dans les anneaux de l'Arche, et on ne les en tirera point.

16 Et tu mettras dans l'Arche le Témoignage que je te donnerai.

17 Tu feras aussi un Propitiatoire de pur or, dont la longueur sera de deux coudées et demie, et la largeur d'une coudée et demie.

18 Et tu feras deux Chérubins d'or; tu les feras d'ouvrage étendu au marteau, [tiré] des deux bouts du Propitiatoire.

19 Fais donc un Chérubin tiré du bout de deçà, et l'autre Chérubin du bout de delà : vous ferez les Chérubins tirés du Propitiatoire sur ses deux bouts.

20 Et les Chérubins étendront les ailes en haut, couvrant de leurs ailes le Propitiatoire, et leurs faces seront vis-à-vis l'une de l'autre; et le regard des Chérubins sera vers le Propitiatoire.

21 Et tu poseras le Propitiatoire au-dessus de l'Arche, et tu mettras dans l'Arche le Témoignage que je te donnerai.

22 Et je me trouverai là avec toi, et je te dirai de dessus le Propitiatoire, d'entre les deux Chérubins qui seront sur l'Arche du Témoignage, toutes les choses que je te commanderai pour les enfants d'Israël.

23 Tu feras aussi une table de bois de Sittim : sa longueur sera de deux coudées, et sa largeur d'une coudée, et sa hauteur d'une coudée et demie.

24 Tu la couvriras de pur or, et tu lui feras un couronnement d'or à l’entour.

25 Tu lui feras aussi à l’entour une clôture d'une paume, et tout autour de sa clôture tu feras un couronnement d'or.

26 Tu lui feras aussi quatre anneaux d'or, que tu mettras aux quatre coins, qui seront à ses quatre pieds.

27 Les anneaux seront à l'endroit de la clôture, afin d'y mettre les barres pour porter la table.

28 Tu feras les barres de bois de Sittim, et tu les couvriras d'or, et on portera la table avec elles.

29 Tu feras aussi ses plats, ses tasses, ses gobelets, et ses bassins, avec lesquels on fera les aspersions; tu les feras de pur or.

30 Et tu mettras sur cette table le pain de proposition, continuellement devant moi.

31 Tu feras aussi un chandelier de pur or; le chandelier sera étendu au marteau; sa tige et ses branches, ses plats, ses pommeaux, et ses fleurs, seront [tirés] de lui.

32 Six branches sortiront de ses côtés; trois branches d'un côté du chandelier, et trois autres de l'autre côté du chandelier.

33 Il y aura en une des branches trois petits plats en forme d'amande, un pommeau et une fleur; en l'autre branche trois petits plats en forme d'amande, un pommeau et une fleur; [il en sera] de même des six branches procédant du chandelier.

34 Il y aura aussi au chandelier quatre petits plats en forme d'amande, ses pommeaux et ses fleurs.

35 Un pommeau sous deux branches [tirées] du chandelier, un pommeau sous deux [autres] branches [tirées] de lui, et un pommeau sous deux [autres] branches tirées de lui; il [en sera] de même des six branches procédant du chandelier.

36 Leurs pommeaux et leurs branches seront [tirés] de lui, [et] tout le chandelier sera un seul ouvrage étendu au marteau, [et] de pur or.

37 Tu feras aussi ses sept lampes, et on les allumera, afin qu'elles éclairent vis-à-vis du chandelier.

38 Et ses mouchettes, et ses creuseaux seront de pur or.

39 On le fera avec tous ses ustensiles d'un talent de pur or.

40 Regarde donc, et fais selon le patron qui t'est montré en la montagne.

9528. 'Of shittim wood' means out of mercy. This is clear from the meaning of 'shittim wood' as the good of merit which is the Lord's alone, dealt with in 9472, 9486; and since the good of merit is mercy, 'shittim wood' also means mercy. For out of pure love, thus out of pure mercy, the Lord assumed the Human, and underwent the severest temptations, finally the passion on the Cross, that He might save the human race; and therefore merit and righteousness are His. From all this it is evident that the good of merit consists in mercy, mercy (misericordia) being Divine Love directed towards those trapped in misery (miseriae).

The Lord underwent the severest temptations and thereby set heaven and hell in order; and He fought out of Divine Love, to save those who receive Him in love and faith, see 1266, 1663, 1668, 1676, 1690, 1691 (end), 1737, 1787, 1789, 1812, 1813, 1820, 1921, 2083, 2159, 2574, 2649, 2776, 2795, 2813, 2816, 3318 (end), 4180, 4286, 4295, 5078.

2813. 'He bound Isaac his son' means the state of the Divine rational which, in this condition as regards truth, was about to undergo the last degrees of temptation. This becomes clear from the meaning of 'binding', and also of 'Isaac his son' - of 'binding' as the assuming of a state for undergoing the last degrees of temptation, as may become clear from the consideration that anyone in a state of temptation is altogether like one who has been bound or fettered; and from the meaning of 'Isaac his son' as the Lord's Divine Rational, here as regards truth, see 2802, 2803. The whole genuine rational part of the mind consists of good and of truth. The Lord's Divine Rational as regards good could not suffer, nor undergo temptations, for no genius or spirit initiating temptations is able to get near Divine good, as this stands above their every endeavour to tempt. But Divine truth once it had been bound was that which could be tempted, for illusions, and still more falsities, are what invade it and so tempt it. Indeed some idea of Divine truth can be formed, but not of Divine good except by beings who have perception and are celestial angels. It was Divine truth that people no longer acknowledged at the time of the Lord's Coming into the world, and therefore it was Divine truth from which the Lord underwent and suffered temptations. Divine truth within the Lord is that which is called the Son of Man, whereas Divine good within Him is that which is called the Son of God. Speaking of the Son of Man the Lord many times says that He is to suffer, but He never says this when He refers to the Son of God. The fact that He speaks of the Son of Man, or Divine truth, having to suffer, is clear in Matthew,

Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be delivered to the chief priests and the scribes, and they will condemn Him and deliver Him to the gentiles to mock and scourge Him, and to crucify [Him]. Matthew 20:18-19.

In the same gospel,

Jesus said to His disciples, Behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son of Man will be delivered into the hands of sinners. Matthew 26:45.

In Mark,

Jesus began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, but after three days rise again. Mark 8:31.

In the same gospel,

It is written of the Son of Man that He will suffer many things and be treated with contempt. And the Son of Man will be delivered into the hands of men who will kill Him; but when He has been killed He will rise again on the third day. Mark 9:12, 31.

In the same gospel,

Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be delivered to the chief priests and the scribes who will condemn Him to death, and deliver Him to the heathens. They will mock Him, and scourge Him, and spit on Him, and kill Him; but on the third day He will rise again. Mark 10:33-34.

In the same gospel,

The hour has come; behold, the Son of Man will be delivered into the hands of sinners. Mark 14:41.

In Luke,

The Son of Man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and on the third day rise again. Luke 9:22, 44.

In the same gospel,

We are going up to Jerusalem where everything will be accomplished that has been written by the prophets concerning the Son of Man. He will be delivered to the gentiles, and will be mocked, and suffer insults, and be spat upon. And they will scourge and kill Him, but on the third day He will rise again. Luke 18:31-33.

In the same gospel,

The angel said to the women, Remember what He told you while He was still in Galilee, saving that the Son of Man must be betrayed into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and on the third day rise again. Luke 24:6-7.

[2] In all these places 'the Son of Man' is used to mean the Lord as regards Divine truth - that is, as regards the Word in its internal sense - which was to be rejected by the chief priests and the scribes, suffer insults, be scourged, spat on, and crucified. This is made quite clear by the fact that the Jews took every single thing literally, applying and misappropriating it to themselves, and had no wish to know anything whatever about the spiritual sense of the Word and about a heavenly kingdom. They believed, as they do even today, that when He came the Messiah would raise up their kingdom above all the kingdoms of the earth. From this it is evident that it was Divine truth which was rejected, insulted, scourged, and crucified by them. Whether you speak of Divine truth or of the Lord as regards Divine truth it amounts to the same, for the Lord is Truth itself just as He is the Word itself, 2011, 2016, 2533 (end).

[3] Also implied in the Lord's rising again on the third day is the fact that Divine truth, or the Word as to its internal sense - as it was understood in the Ancient Church - will be brought back to life again at the close of the age, which also is 'the third day', 1825, 2788. And this is the reason why it is said that the Son of Man, that is, Divine truth, will appear at that time, Matthew 24:30, 37, 39, 44; Mark 13:26; Luke 17:22, 24-26, 30; 21:27, 36.

[4] The fact that the Son of Man is the Lord as regards Divine truth is clear from the places quoted already and further still from the following: In Matthew,

He who sows the good seed is the Son of Man; the field is the world. At the close of the age the Son of Man will send His angels, and they will gather out of His kingdom all offences. Matthew 13:37, 41-42.

Here 'the good seed' means truth, 'the world' men, 'he who sows it' the Son of Man, and 'offences' falsities. In John,

The crowd said, We have heard from the Law that the Christ remains for ever. Why therefore do you say, The Son of Man must be lifted up? Who is this Son of Man? Jesus answered them, The Light is with you for a brief while. Walk, as long as you have the Light, lest the darkness overtakes you, for he who walks in the darkness does not know where he is going. As long as you have the Light believe in the Light, that you may be sons of the Light. John 12:34-36.

Here, when the crowd ask, 'Who is the Son of Man?' Jesus speaks in His reply about the Light, which is truth, and says that He Himself is the Light or Truth in which they ought to believe. Regarding the Light which comes from the Lord, and which is Divine Truth, see 1053, 1521, 1529-1531, 1619-1632.

[5] But as for the truth that the Son of God, or the Lord as to the Good within His Divine human, could not be tempted, as stated above, this is evident also from the Lord's reply to the tempter, in the gospels,

The tempter said, If You are the Son of God, throw Yourself down, for it is written, He will give His angels charge regarding you, lest you strike your foot against a stone. Jesus said to him, Again it is written, You shall not tempt the Lord your God. Matthew 4:6-7; Luke 4:9-12.
