1 وكلم الرب موسى بعد موت ابني هرون عندما اقتربا امام الرب وماتا

2 وقال الرب لموسى كلم هرون اخاك ان لا يدخل كل وقت الى القدس داخل الحجاب امام الغطاء الذي على التابوت لئلا يموت. لاني في السحاب اتراءى على الغطاء.

3 بهذا يدخل هرون الى القدس. بثور ابن بقر لذبيحة خطية وكبش لمحرقة.

4 يلبس قميص كتان مقدسا وتكون سراويل كتان على جسده ويتنطّق بمنطقة كتان ويتعمم بعمامة كتان. انها ثياب مقدسة. فيرحض جسده بماء ويلبسها.

5 ومن جماعة بني اسرائيل ياخذ تيسين من المعز لذبيحة خطية وكبشا واحدا لمحرقة.

6 ويقرّب هرون ثور الخطية الذي له ويكفّر عن نفسه وعن بيته.

7 ويأخذ التيسين ويوقفهما امام الرب لدى باب خيمة الاجتماع.

8 ويلقي هرون على التيسين قرعتين قرعة للرب وقرعة لعزازيل.

9 ويقرّب هرون التيس الذي خرجت عليه القرعة للرب ويعمله ذبيحة خطية.

10 واما التيس الذي خرجت عليه القرعة لعزازيل فيوقف حيّا امام الرب ليكفّر عنه ليرسله الى عزازيل الى البرية

11 ويقدم هرون ثور الخطية الذي له ويكفّر عن نفسه وعن بيته ويذبح ثور الخطية الذي له

12 ويأخذ ملء المجمرة جمر نار عن المذبح من امام الرب وملء راحتيه بخورا عطرا دقيقا ويدخل بهما الى داخل الحجاب

13 ويجعل البخور على النار امام الرب فتغشي سحابة البخور الغطاء الذي على الشهادة فلا يموت.

14 ثم يأخذ من دم الثور وينضح باصبعه على وجه الغطاء الى الشرق. وقدام الغطاء ينضح سبع مرات من الدم باصبعه

15 ثم يذبح تيس الخطية الذي للشعب ويدخل بدمه الى داخل الحجاب ويفعل بدمه كما فعل بدم الثور ينضحه على الغطاء وقدام الغطاء

16 فيكفّر عن القدس من نجاسات بني اسرائيل ومن سيّآتهم مع كل خطاياهم. وهكذا يفعل لخيمة الاجتماع القائمة بينهم في وسط نجاساتهم.

17 ولا يكن انسان في خيمة الاجتماع من دخوله للتكفير في القدس الى خروجه. فيكفّر عن نفسه وعن بيته وعن كل جماعة اسرائيل.

18 ثم يخرج الى المذبح الذي امام الرب ويكفّر عنه. ياخذ من دم الثور ومن دم التيس ويجعل على قرون المذبح مستديرا.

19 وينضح عليه من الدم باصبعه سبع مرات ويطهّره ويقدسه من نجاسات بني اسرائيل

20 ومتى فرغ من التكفير عن القدس وعن خيمة الاجتماع وعن المذبح يقدم التيس الحي

21 ويضع هرون يديه على راس التيس الحي ويقرّ عليه بكل ذنوب بني اسرائيل وكل سيّآتهم مع كل خطاياهم ويجعلها على راس التيس ويرسله بيد من يلاقيه الى البرية.

22 ليحمل التيس عليه كل ذنوبهم الى ارض مقفرة فيطلق التيس في البرية.

23 ثم يدخل هرون الى خيمة الاجتماع ويخلع ثياب الكتان التي لبسها عند دخوله الى القدس ويضعها هناك.

24 ويرحض جسده بماء في مكان مقدس ثم يلبس ثيابه ويخرج ويعمل محرقته ومحرقة الشعب ويكفّر عن نفسه وعن الشعب.

25 وشحم ذبيحة الخطية يوقده على المذبح.

26 والذي اطلق التيس الى عزازيل يغسل ثيابه ويرحض جسده بماء وبعد ذلك يدخل الى المحلّة

27 وثور الخطية وتيس الخطية اللذان أتي بدمهما للتكفير في القدس يخرجهما الى خارج المحلّة ويحرقون بالنار جلديهما ولحمهما وفرثهما.

28 والذي يحرقهما يغسل ثيابه ويرحض جسده بماء وبعد ذلك يدخل الى المحلّة.

29 ويكون لكم فريضة دهرية انكم في الشهر السابع في عاشر الشهر تذللون نفوسكم وكل عمل لا تعملون الوطني والغريب النازل في وسطكم.

30 لانه في هذا اليوم يكفّر عنكم لتطهيركم. من جميع خطاياكم امام الرب تطهرون.

31 سبت عطلة هو لكم وتذلّلون نفوسكم فريضة دهرية.

32 ويكفّر الكاهن الذي يمسحه والذي يملأ يده للكهانة عوضا عن ابيه. يلبس ثياب الكتان الثياب المقدسة

33 ويكفّر عن مقدس القدس. وعن خيمة الاجتماع والمذبح يكفّر. وعن الكهنة وكل شعب الجماعة يكفّر.

34 وتكون هذه لكم فريضة دهرية للتكفير عن بني اسرائيل من جميع خطاياهم مرة في السنة. ففعل كما امر الرب موسى

9475. 'And for the incense of spices' means for delightful perception. This is clear from the meaning of 'incense' as the things of worship that are perceived with delight, such as acts of thanksgiving, adoration, prayer, and the like; and from the meaning of 'spices' as truths of faith which are delightful because they originate in good. For sweet odours, such as spicy ones, mean that which is delightful; and whatever is delightful is such by virtue of the good made known through truths. So it is that 'the incense of spices' means the delightful perception that belongs to truth originating in good. The spices which went into the making of that incense are listed, and the preparation of it is described in the following words,

Take for yourself spices, stacte and onycha and galbanum - [these] spices, and pure frankincense. You shall make them an incense, salted, pure, holy. You shall beat some of it very small, and put some of it before the Testimony in the tent of meeting. Most holy 1 shall it be to you. The incense shall be to you holy for Jehovah. Exodus 30:34-38.

The altar of incense, along with the incense itself, is described as follows,

You shall make an altar for burning incense. You shall overlay it with pure gold. You shall put it before the veil that is over the ark of the Testimony before the mercy-seat, that Aaron may burn on it spicy incense every morning; when he trims the lamps he shall burn it, and between the evenings. Exodus 30:1-10; 37:25-end; 40:26-27.

And elsewhere,

When Aaron comes into the Holy Place he shall take a censer full of burning coals of fire 2 from upon the altar, with his hands full of spicy incense beaten fine. 3 Then he shall bring it inside the veil, in order that he may put the incense onto the fire before Jehovah, and the cloud of incense may cover the mercy-seat which is over the Testimony. Leviticus 16:12-13.

[2] Since 'incense' meant acts of worship such as had their origin in good made known through truths, as do all expressions of faith that have their origin in the good of love, the fire was taken from the altar; for the fire on the altar meant the good of God's love, 934, 4906, 5071 (end), 5215, 6314, 6832, 6834, 6849, 7324, 7852. On this account when fire had been taken from any other source they were struck down by a plague and died, Leviticus 10:1-2ff; Numbers 16:45-48; for fire from any other source, or 'foreign fire', meant love that was not God's.

[3] The fact that expressions of faith having their origin in the good of love and charity, for example thanksgivings, acts of adoration, and prayers, are meant by 'incense' is clear in David,

My prayers are acceptable, [as] incense before You. Psalms 141:2.

In John,

The four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each holding a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints. Revelation 5:8.

In the same book,

An angel holding a golden censer ... And much incense was given to him, that he should offer it with the prayers of all the saints on the golden altar which was before the throne. The smoke of the incense went up from the prayers of the saints. Revelation 8:3-4.

[4] The reason why such expressions of faith are meant by 'incense' is that they are matters of thought and consequently of the lips. But matters of affection and consequently of the heart are meant by 'the minchah' in Malachi 1:11, where it says that from the rising of the sun even to its setting Jehovah's name will be great among the nations, and 'in every place incense has been offered to My name, and a pure minchah'; and the same things are meant by 'the burnt offering' in Moses,

The sons of Levi will teach Jacob Your judgements and Israel Your law. They will put incense in Your nose, and burnt offering on Your altar. Deuteronomy 33:10.

'Incense' in these places stands for such things as are matters of thought and the lips and have regard to the truths of faith; 'minchah' and 'burnt offering' stand for such things as are matters of affection and the heart and have regard to forms of the good of love. All this being so, in the contrary sense worship arising from falsities of faith is meant by burning incense to other gods, Jeremiah 1:16; 44:3, 5; burning incense to idols, Ezekiel 8:11; 16:18; and burning incense to the baalim, Hosea 2:13.

2. literally, the fullness of a censer, burning coals of fire

Leviticus 11

Studie

   

1 Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying to them,

2 "Speak to the children of Israel, saying, 'These are the living things which you may eat among all the animals that are on the earth.

3 Whatever parts the hoof, and is cloven-footed, and chews the cud among the animals, that you may eat.

4 "'Nevertheless these you shall not eat of those that chew the cud, or of those who part the hoof: the camel, because he chews the cud but doesn't have a parted hoof, he is unclean to you.

5 The coney, because he chews the cud but doesn't have a parted hoof, he is unclean to you.

6 The hare, because she chews the cud but doesn't part the hoof, she is unclean to you.

7 The pig, because he has a split hoof, and is cloven-footed, but doesn't chew the cud, he is unclean to you.

8 Of their flesh you shall not eat, and their carcasses you shall not touch; they are unclean to you.

9 "'These you may eat of all that are in the waters: whatever has fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the rivers, that you may eat.

10 All that don't have fins and scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of all that move in the waters, and of all the living creatures that are in the waters, they are an abomination to you,

11 and you detest them. You shall not eat of their flesh, and you shall detest their carcasses.

12 Whatever has no fins nor scales in the waters, that is an abomination to you.

13 "'These you shall detest among the birds; they shall not be eaten, they are an abomination: the eagle, and the vulture, and the black vulture,

14 and the red kite, any kind of black kite,

15 any kind of raven,

16 the horned owl, the screech owl, and the gull, any kind of hawk,

17 the little owl, the cormorant, the great owl,

18 the white owl, the desert owl, the osprey,

19 the stork, any kind of heron, the hoopoe, and the bat.

20 "'All flying insects that walk on all fours are an abomination to you.

21 Yet you may eat these: of all winged creeping things that go on all fours, which have legs above their feet, with which to hop on the earth.

22 Even of these you may eat: any kind of locust, any kind of katydid, any kind of cricket, and any kind of grasshopper.

23 But all winged creeping things which have four feet, are an abomination to you.

24 "'By these you will become unclean: whoever touches the carcass of them shall be unclean until the evening.

25 Whoever carries any part of their carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening.

26 "'Every animal which parts the hoof, and is not cloven-footed, nor chews the cud, is unclean to you. Everyone who touches them shall be unclean.

27 Whatever goes on its paws, among all animals that go on all fours, they are unclean to you. Whoever touches their carcass shall be unclean until the evening.

28 He who carries their carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening. They are unclean to you.

29 "'These are they which are unclean to you among the creeping things that creep on the earth: the weasel, the rat, any kind of great lizard,

30 the gecko, and the monitor lizard, the wall lizard, the skink, and the chameleon.

31 These are they which are unclean to you among all that creep. Whoever touches them when they are dead, shall be unclean until the evening.

32 On whatever any of them falls when they are dead, it shall be unclean; whether it is any vessel of wood, or clothing, or skin, or sack, whatever vessel it is, with which any work is done, it must be put into water, and it shall be unclean until the evening; then it will be clean.

33 Every earthen vessel, into which any of them falls, all that is in it shall be unclean, and you shall break it.

34 All food which may be eaten, that on which water comes, shall be unclean; and all drink that may be drunk in every such vessel shall be unclean.

35 Everything whereupon part of their carcass falls shall be unclean; whether oven, or range for pots, it shall be broken in pieces: they are unclean, and shall be unclean to you.

36 Nevertheless a spring or a cistern in which water is a gathered shall be clean: but that which touches their carcass shall be unclean.

37 If part of their carcass falls on any sowing seed which is to be sown, it is clean.

38 But if water is put on the seed, and part of their carcass falls on it, it is unclean to you.

39 "'If any animal, of which you may eat, dies; he who touches its carcass shall be unclean until the evening.

40 He who eats of its carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening. He also who carries its carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening.

41 "'Every creeping thing that creeps on the earth is an abomination. It shall not be eaten.

42 Whatever goes on its belly, and whatever goes on all fours, or whatever has many feet, even all creeping things that creep on the earth, them you shall not eat; for they are an abomination.

43 You shall not make yourselves abominable with any creeping thing that creeps, neither shall you make yourselves unclean with them, that you should be defiled thereby.

44 For I am Yahweh your God. Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be holy; for I am holy: neither shall you defile yourselves with any kind of creeping thing that moves on the earth.

45 For I am Yahweh who brought you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God. You shall therefore be holy, for I am holy.

46 "'This is the law of the animal, and of the bird, and of every living creature that moves in the waters, and of every creature that creeps on the earth,

47 to make a distinction between the unclean and the clean, and between the living thing that may be eaten and the living thing that may not be eaten.'"
