利未记 14

Studie

   

1 耶和华晓谕摩西

2 长大麻风得洁净的日子,其例乃是这样:要带他去见祭司;

3 祭司要出到外察,若见他的大麻风痊愈了

4 就要吩咐人为那求洁净的拿两只洁净的活和香柏、朱红色线,并牛膝草来。

5 祭司要吩咐用瓦器盛活,把宰在上面。

6 至於那只活,祭司要把他和香柏、朱红色线并牛膝草一同蘸於宰在活上的血中,

7 用以在那长大痲疯求洁净的人身上次,就定他为洁净,又把活放在田野里。

8 求洁净的人当衣服,剃去毛发,用洗澡,就洁净了;然可以进,只是要在自己的帐棚外居住

9 第七,再把上所有的头发与胡须、眉毛,并全身的毛,都剃了;又要衣服,用身,就洁净了。

10 第八,他要取两只没有残疾的公羊羔和只没有残疾、岁的母羊羔,又要把调的细面伊法十分之为素祭,并罗革,同取来。

11 行洁净之礼的祭司要将那求洁净的和这些东西安置在会幕口、耶和华面前。

12 祭司要取公羊羔献为赎愆祭,和那罗革同作摇祭,在耶和华面前摇摇;

13 公羊羔宰於地,就是宰赎祭牲和燔祭牲之地。赎愆祭要归祭司,与赎祭一样,是至的。

14 祭司要取些赎愆祭牲的血,抹在求洁净人的右耳垂上和右的大拇指上,并右的大拇指上。

15 祭司要从那一罗革中取些倒在自己的左手掌里,

16 把右手的一个指头蘸在左手的里,在耶和华面前用指头弹次。

17 里所剩的抹在那求洁净人的右耳垂上和右的大拇指上,并右的大拇指上,就是抹在赎愆祭牲的血上。

18 祭司手里所要抹在那求洁净人的上,在耶和华面前为他赎罪。

19 祭司要献赎祭,为那本不洁净、求洁净的人赎;然要宰燔祭牲,

20 把燔祭和素祭献在上,为他赎罪,他就洁净了。

21 他若贫穷不能预备够数,就要取公羊羔作赎愆祭,可以摇摇,为他赎罪;也要把调的细面伊法十分之为素祭,和罗革同取来;

22 又照他的力量取两只斑鸠或是两只雏鸽,只作赎祭,只作燔祭。

23 第八,要为洁净,把这些会幕口、耶和华面前,交给祭司。

24 祭司要把赎愆祭的羊羔和那一罗革一同作摇祭,在耶和华面前摇一摇。

25 要宰了赎愆祭的羊羔,取些赎愆祭牲的血,抹在那求洁净人的右耳垂上和右的大拇指上,并右的大拇指上。

26 祭司要把些倒在自己的左手掌里,

27 把左手里的,在耶和华面前,用右手的一个指头弹次,

28 又把里的抹些在那求洁净人的右耳垂上和右的大拇指上,并右的大拇指上,就是抹赎愆祭之血的原处。

29 祭司手里所要抹在那求洁净人的上,在耶和华面前为他赎罪。

30 那人又要照他的力量献上斑鸠或是只雏鸽,

31 就是他所能办的,只为赎祭,只为燔祭,与素祭同献上;祭司要在耶和华面前为他赎

32 这是那有大麻风灾病的人、不能将关乎得洁净之物预备够数的条例。

33 耶和华晓谕摩西亚伦

34 你们到了我赐你们为业的迦南,我若使你们所得为业之房屋中有大麻风的灾病,

35 房主就要去告诉祭司:据我看,房屋中似乎有灾病。

36 祭司还没有进去察灾病以前,就要吩咐人把房子腾空,免得房子里所有的都成了不洁净;然祭司要进去察房子。

37 他要察那灾病,灾病若在房子的上有发绿或发红的凹斑纹,现象洼於

38 祭司就要出到房外,把房子封锁

39 第七,祭司要再去察,灾病若在房子的墙上发散,

40 就要吩咐人把那有灾病的石头挖出来,扔在城外不洁净之处;

41 也要叫人刮房内的四围,所刮掉的灰泥要倒在城外不洁净之处;

42 又要用别的石头代替那挖出来的石头,要另用灰泥墁房子。

43 他挖出石头,刮了房子,墁了以,灾病若在房子里又发现,

44 祭司就要进去察,灾病若在房子里发散,这就是房内蚕食的大麻风,是不洁净。

45 他就要拆毁房子,把石头头、灰泥都搬到城外不洁净之处。

46 在房子封锁的时候,进去的人必不洁净到晚上

47 在房子里躺着的必洗衣服;在房子里饭的也必洗衣服

48 房子墁了以,祭司若进去察,见灾病在房内没有发散,就要定房子为洁净,因为灾病已经消除。

49 要为洁净房子取两只和香柏、朱红色线并牛膝草,

50 用瓦器盛活,把宰在上面,

51 把香柏、牛膝草、朱红色线并那活,都蘸在被宰的血中与活中,用以房子次。

52 要用血、活、活、香柏、牛膝草,并朱红色线,洁净那房子。

53 但要把活放在城外田野里。这样洁净房子(原文是为房子赎罪),房子就洁净了。

54 这是为各类大麻风的灾病和头疥,

55 衣服与房子的大麻风,

56 以及疖子、癣、火斑所立的条例,

57 指明何时为洁净,何时为不洁净。这是大麻风的条例。

Apocalypse Revealed # 862

862. We have said that the nations' surrounding the camp of the saints and the beloved city means, symbolically, that these people attempted to destroy everything connected with the New Church, both its truths and goods and its fundamental doctrine regarding the Lord and life, as stated in the preceding number. This is the symbolic meaning because the camp of the saints symbolizes all the truths and goods of the church which is the New Jerusalem.

That a camp in the spiritual sense symbolizes everything connected with the church with respect to its truths and goods can be seen from the following passages:

The sun and moon grew dark, and the stars diminished their brightness. Jehovah uttered His voice before His army, for His camp is very great; for numberless are those who obey His Word. (Joel 2:10-11)

I will encamp for My house some of the army... (Zechariah 9:8)

...God has scattered the bones of them who encamp against you..., because God has rejected them. (Psalms 53:5)

The angel of Jehovah encamps all around those who fear Him, and delivers them. (Psalms 34:7)

(An angel of God met Jacob, and said to Jacob,) "This is God's camp." Therefore he called the name of that place Mahanaim (Two Camps). (Genesis 32:1-2)

And so on elsewhere, as in Isaiah 29:3, Ezekiel 1:24, Psalms 27:3.

That an army or host in the Word symbolizes the church's truths and goods, and also its falsities and evils, may be seen in nos. 447, 826, 833; and so, too, does a camp.

[2] Since the children of Israel and their twelve tribes symbolize the church in respect to all its truths and goods (nos. 349, 350), they were therefore called the armies or hosts of Jehovah (Exodus 7:4; 12:41, 51), and the places where they stopped and assembled were called camps, as in Leviticus 4:12; 8:17; 13:46; 14:8; 16:26, 28; 24:14, 23; Numbers 1; 2; 3; 4:5 ff., 5:2-4; 9:17-23; 10:1-10, 11-28; 11:31-32; 12:14-15; 21:10-15; 33:1-49; Deuteronomy 23:9-14; Amos 4:10.

It is apparent from this now that the nations' surrounding the camp of the saints and the beloved city means, symbolically, that these people tried to destroy all the truths and goods of the New Church, which is the New Jerusalem, and also its doctrine regarding the Lord and life.

The same symbolism is found in these verses in Luke:

When you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then know that its desolation is near... (At length) Jerusalem will be trampled by Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled. (Luke 21:20, 24)

This is said in reference to the end of the age, which is the final period of the church. Jerusalem here also symbolizes the church.

That Gog and Magog, that is, people who engage in external worship divorced from any internal worship, will then invade the church and try to destroy it, is something we are told also in Ezekiel 38:8-9, 11, 12, 15, 16, 39:2, and that the New Church will then be established by the Lord, Ezekiel 39:17-29.
