Levítico 17

Проучване

   

1 Y habló el SEÑOR a Moisés, diciendo:

2 Habla a Aarón y a sus hijos, y a todos los hijos de Israel, y diles: Esto es lo que ha mandado el SEÑOR, diciendo:

3 Cualquier varón de la Casa de Israel que degollare buey, o cordero, o cabra, en el real, o fuera del real,

4 y no lo trajere a la puerta del tabernáculo del testimonio, para ofrecer ofrenda al SEÑOR delante del tabernáculo del SEÑOR, sangre será imputada al tal varón; sangre derramó; el tal varón será cortado de entre su pueblo;

5 a fin de que traigan los hijos de Israel sus sacrificios, los que sacrifican sobre la faz del campo, para que los traigan al SEÑOR a la puerta del tabernáculo del testimonio al sacerdote, y sacrifiquen ellos sacrificios de paz al SEÑOR.

6 Y el sacerdote esparza la sangre sobre el altar del SEÑOR, a la puerta del tabernáculo del testimonio, y haga perfume del sebo en olor muy aceptable al SEÑOR.

7 Y nunca más sacrificarán sus sacrificios a los demonios, tras de los cuales fornican; tendrán esto por estatuto perpetuo por sus edades.

8 Les dirás también: Cualquier varón de la Casa de Israel, o de los extranjeros que peregrinan entre vosotros, que ofreciere holocausto o sacrificio,

9 y no lo trajere a la puerta del tabernáculo del testimonio, para hacerlo al SEÑOR, el tal varón también será cortado de su pueblo.

10 Y cualquier varón de la Casa de Israel, o de los extranjeros que peregrinan entre ellos, que comiere alguna sangre, yo pondré mi rostro contra la persona que comiere sangre, y la cortaré de entre su pueblo.

11 Porque el alma (o la vida ) de la carne en la sangre está; y yo os la he dado para expiar vuestras personas (almas ) sobre el altar; por lo cual la misma sangre expiará la persona.

12 Por tanto, he dicho a los hijos de Israel: Ninguna persona de vosotros comerá sangre, ni el extranjero que peregrina entre vosotros comerá sangre.

13 Y cualquier varón de los hijos de Israel, o de los extranjeros que peregrinan entre ellos, que cogiere caza de animal o de ave que sea de comer, derramará su sangre y la cubrirá con tierra.

14 Porque el alma de toda carne, su vida, está en su sangre; por tanto he dicho a los hijos de Israel: No comeréis la sangre de ninguna carne, porque el alma (o la vida ) de toda carne es su sangre; cualquiera que la comiere será cortado.

15 Y cualquiera persona que comiere cosa mortecina o despedazada por fiera , así de los naturales como de los extranjeros, lavará sus vestidos, y a sí mismo se lavará con agua, y será inmundo hasta la tarde; y se limpiará.

16 Y si no los lavare, ni lavare su carne, llevará su iniquidad.

9992. 'And unleavened bread' means purification of what is celestial in the inmost part of a person. This is clear from the meaning of 'bread' as that which is celestial, dealt with in 2165, 2177, 3478, 9545; and from the meaning of what is 'unleavened' as what has been purified, dealt with below. The inmost part of a person is meant because what is celestial consists in the good of love, and the good of love is inmost. There are three degrees in a person that follow one another in order; and these three are called celestial, spiritual, and natural. The celestial degree is the good of love to the Lord, the spiritual is the good of charity towards the neighbour, and the natural descending from this is the good of faith, which, since it descends from the spiritual, is called spiritual-natural. The situation with a person resembles that in the heavens. The inmost heaven, also called the third heaven, is where the celestial degree is situated; the second or middle heaven is where the spiritual degree does so; and the first or lowest heaven is where the natural descending from the spiritual, or the spiritual-natural degree, does so. The reason why the situation with a person resembles that in the heavens is that a person in whom good is present is heaven in the smallest form it takes, see the places referred to in 9279. The celestial heaven or kingdom and the division of this too into three will be spoken of in what follows next where cakes and wafers made from fine wheat flour are the subject.

[2] 'Unleavened' means what has been purified because 'yeast' means falsity arising from evil, 2342, 7906, so that 'unleavened' or made without yeast means pure or free from that falsity. 'Yeast' means falsity arising from evil because such falsity defiles good, and truth as well, and also because it gives rise to conflict; for when that falsity gets near good, agitation occurs, and when it gets near truth, a collision takes place. All this explains why a minchah consisting of unleavened bread was included in burnt offerings and sacrifices. Therefore it was decreed that every minchah which they brought to Jehovah should be made without yeast, Leviticus 2:11; that they should not sacrifice the blood of a sacrifice with anything made with yeast, Exodus 23:18; and that during the feast of Passover they should not eat anything made with yeast, and that anyone eating it should be cut off from Israel, Exodus 12:15, 18-20. The reason why anyone who ate anything made with yeast during the feast of Passover should be cut off from Israel was that the feast of Passover was a sign of deliverance from damnation, and in particular of deliverance from falsities arising from evil, accomplished with those who allow themselves to be regenerated by the Lord, see 7093, 9286-9292. This also explains why it was called the feast of unleavened bread.
