利未记 6

Studie

   

1 耶和华晓谕摩西

2 若有人犯罪,干犯耶和华,在邻舍交付他的物上,或是在交易上行了诡诈,或是抢夺人的财物,或是欺压邻舍,

3 或是在捡了遗失的物上行了诡诈,说谎起誓,在这切的事上犯了甚麽罪;

4 他既犯了罪,有了过犯,就要归还他所抢夺的,或是因欺压所得的,或是人交付他的,或是人遗失他所捡的物,

5 或是他因甚麽物起了假誓,就要如数归还,另外加上五分之一,在查出他有罪的日子要交还本主。

6 也要照你所估定的价,把赎愆祭牲─就是羊群中一只没有残疾的公绵─牵到耶和华面前,给祭司为赎愆祭。

7 祭司要在耶和华面前为他赎罪;他无论行了甚麽事,使他有了罪,都必蒙赦免。

8 耶和华晓谕摩西

9 你要吩咐亚伦和他的子孙说,燔祭的条例乃是这样:燔祭要放在的柴上,从晚上到天亮,上的要常常烧着。

10 祭司要穿上细麻布衣服,又要把细麻布裤子穿在身上,把上所烧的燔祭灰收起来,倒在的旁边;

11 随後要脱去这衣服,穿上别的衣服,把灰拿到外洁净之处。

12 上的要在其上常常烧着,不可熄灭。祭司要每日早晨在上面烧柴,并要把燔祭摆在上,在其上烧平安祭牲的脂油。

13 上必有常常烧着的,不可熄灭。

14 素祭的条例乃是这样:亚伦的子孙要在前把这祭献在耶和华面前。

15 祭司要从其中─就是从素祭的细面中─取出自己的一把,又要取些和素祭上所有的乳,烧在上,奉给耶和华为馨素祭的纪念。

16 下的,亚伦和他子孙要,必在圣处不带酵而,要在会幕的院子里

17 烤的时候不可搀。这是从所献我的火祭中赐他们的分,是至的,和赎祭并赎愆祭一样。

18 凡献给耶和华的火祭,亚伦子孙中的男丁都要这一分,直到万,作他们永得的分。摸这些祭物的,都要成为

19 耶和华晓谕摩西

20 亚伦的日子,他和他子孙所要献给耶和华的供物,就是细面伊法十分之一,为常献的素祭:早晨一半,晚上一半。

21 要在铁鏊上用调和做成,调匀了,你就拿进来;烤好了分成块子,献给耶和华为馨的素祭。

22 亚伦的子孙中,接续他为受膏的祭司,要把这素祭献上,要全烧给耶和华。这是永远的定例。

23 祭司的素祭都要烧了,却不可

24 耶和华晓谕摩西

25 你对亚伦和他的子孙,赎祭的条例乃是这样:要在耶和华面前、宰燔祭牲的地方宰赎祭牲;这是至的。

26 为赎罪献这祭的祭司要,要在圣处,就是在会幕的院子里

27 凡摸这祭的要成为;这祭牲的血若弹在甚麽衣服上,所弹的那一件要在处洗净。

28 惟有祭物的瓦器要打碎;若是在铜器里,这铜器要擦磨,在中涮净。

29 祭司中的男丁都可以;这是至的。

30 凡赎祭,若将血带进会幕所赎,那肉都不可,必用焚烧。

Apocalypse Revealed # 778

778. "And wine, oil, flour, wheat." This symbolically means that these Roman Catholics no longer have any worship that springs from celestial truths and goods, because they have nothing inwardly in their worship that corresponds to the aforesaid things.

This statement is similar to ones explained just above and in previous numbers, the only difference being that the valuables here symbolize celestial goods and truths.

Just what goods and truths are called celestial, and what spiritual, may be seen in no. 773 above. It may also be seen that the Roman Catholics meant here possess none of these, nor are there any in their worship. For, as we said above, the goods and truths of doctrine are present in worship as the soul is in the body. Consequently worship without these is a lifeless worship. Of such a character is worship that is reverent in outward appearances, but which has in it no internal reverence.

That wine symbolizes truth springing from the goodness of love may be seen in no. 316 above. That oil symbolizes the goodness of love will be seen in the next number. Flour symbolizes celestial truth, and wheat symbolizes celestial good.

[2] Wine, oil, flour and wheat symbolize the truths and goods in worship, because they were the ingredients in drink offerings and grain offerings, which were offered on the altar along with other sacrifices, and sacrifices and other offerings offered on the altar symbolize worship, since it was in these that the Israelites' worship chiefly consisted.

That drink offerings, which were ones of wine, were offered on the altar along with other sacrifices, can be seen in Exodus 29:40; Leviticus 23:12-13, 18-19; Numbers 15:2-15; 28:11-15, 18-31; 29:1-7ff.; and also in Isaiah 57:6; 65:11; Jeremiah 7:18; 44:17-19; Ezekiel 20:28; Joel 1:9; Psalms 16:4; Deuteronomy 32:38.

That oil was also offered on the altar along with sacrifices, can be seen in Exodus 29:40.

That grain offerings, which consisted of wheat flour, were offered on the altar along with other sacrifices, can be seen in Exodus 29:40).

It can be seen from this that these four articles - wine, oil, flour and wheat - were sacred and celestial elements in their worship.
