Izlazak 30

1 "Napravi i žrtvenik za paljenje tamjana; napravi ga od bagremova drva.

2 Neka bude lakat dug, lakat širok, u pravokut, i dva lakta visok. Neka mu roščići budu od jednoga komada s njim.

3 Obloži mu u čisto zlato: njegovu gornju plohu, njegove strane naokolo i njegove roščiće. Načini mu zlatan završni pojas naokolo.

4 Načini mu dva zlatna koluta. Pričvrsti mu ih s dviju suprotnih strana ispod završnog pojasa. Kroz njih će se provlačiti motke za nošenje.

5 Motke načini od bagremova drva i zlatom ih obloži.

6 Postavi žrtvenik pred zavjesu što zastire Kovčeg Svjedočanstva - nasuprot Pomirilištu nad Svjedočanstvom - gdje ću se ja s tobom sastajati.

7 Neka na njemu Aron pali miomirisni tamjan svako jutro kad priprema svjetla;

8 neka ga Aron opet pali u suton kad svjetla zapaljuje, da to bude svagdašnje kadiono prinošenje pred Jahvom u sve vaše naraštaje.

9 Ne prinosi na njemu ni neposvećenoga tamjana, ni paljenice, ni prinosnice, ni ljevanice!

10 Jednom u godini neka Aron obavi obred pomirenja na njegovim roščićima. Krvlju žrtve koja se prinosi za grijeh, jednom na godinu, neka obavi obred pomirenja za žrtvenik. Tako činite u sve naraštaje. Jer oltar je presveta svetinja Jahvina."

11 Nadalje Jahve reče Mojsiju:

12 "Kad budeš pravio popis Izraelaca prilikom novačenja, neka svatko da Jahvi otkupninu za se kad se upiše, da ih kakvo zlo ne snađe zbog novačenja.

13 Tko god potpada pod novačenje, ovoliko neka dadne: pola šekela - prema hramskom šekelu, gdje je dvadeset gera u šekelu. To pola šekela neka bude kao prinos Jahvi.

14 Tko god potpada pod novačenje, od dvadeset godina starosti pa naviše, neka dadne prinos Jahvi.

15 Bogataš neka ne plaća više niti siromah manje od pola šekela kad daju prinos Jahvi kao otkup za se.

16 Uzimaj otkupni novac od Izraelaca i određuj ga za potrebe Šatora sastanka. Neka to bude Jahvi na spomen da se sjeća Izraelaca i da im bude milostiv."

17 Reče Jahve Mojsiju:

18 "Napravi umivaonik od tuča i podnožje od tuča za umivanje. Postavi ga između Šatora sastanka i žrtvenika. Nalij u nj vode

19 pa neka Aron i njegovi sinovi peru svoje ruke i noge vodom iz njega.

20 Kad moradnu ulaziti u Šator sastanka, ili kad se moradnu primicati žrtveniku za službu da spaljuju žrtve u čast Jahvi paljene, neka se vodom operu da ne poginu.

21 Neka operu ruke svoje i noge svoje da izbjegnu smrti: to je trajna naredba Aronu i njegovim potomcima u sve naraštaje."

22 Još reče Jahve Mojsiju:

23 "Nabavi najboljih mirodija: pet stotina šekela smirne samotoka, pola te težine - dvjesta pedeset - mirisavog cimeta, dvjesta pedeset mirisave trstike,

24 pet stotina - prema hramskom šekelu - lovorike i jedan hin maslinova ulja.

25 Od toga napravi posvećeno ulje za pomazanje; da bude smjesa kao da ju je pravio pomastar. Neka to bude posvećeno ulje za pomazanje.

26 Time onda pomaži: Šator sastanka i Kovčeg Svjedočanstva;

27 stol i sav njegov pribor; svijećnjak i sav njegov pribor; žrtvenik kadioni;

28 žrtvenik za žrtve paljenice i sav njegov pribor; umivaonik i njegov stalak:

29 posveti ih, i oni će tako postati posvećeni; i što god ih se dotakne, posvećeno će postati.

30 Pomaži Arona i njegove sinove i posveti ih meni za svećenike.

31 Onda kaži Izraelcima ovako: 'Ovo je moje posvećeno ulje za pomazanje od koljena do koljena.

32 Ne smije se polijevati po tijelu običnoga čovjeka; ne smijete praviti drugoga ovakva sastava! To je posvećeno i neka vam bude sveto!

33 Tko god takvo napravi, ili tko ga stavi na kojeg svjetovnjaka, neka se odstrani od svog naroda!'"

34 Jahve još reče Mojsiju: "Nabavi mirodija: natafe, šeheleta i helebene. Od ovih mirodija i čistoga tamjana,

35 sve u jednakim dijelovima, napravi tamjan za kađenje, smjesu mirodija kakvu pravi pomastar, opranu, čistu, svetu.

36 Od toga nešto smrvi u prah i jedan dio stavi pred Svjedočanstvo, u Šator sastanka, gdje ću se ja s tobom sastajati. Držite ovu mirodiju presvetom!

37 A miomiris koji napraviš prema ovome sastavu za svoju upotrebu ne smijete praviti. To drži za svetinju Jahvi!

38 Tko sebi napravi što takvo da mu miriše, neka se iskorijeni iz svoga naroda."

10239. 'And Aaron and his sons shall wash in it' means a representative sign of the purification and regeneration of a person by the Lord. This is clear from the meaning of 'washing' as purification, dealt with above in 10237; from the representation of 'Aaron' as the Lord in respect of Divine Celestial Good, dealt with in 9806, 10068; and from the representation of 'Aaron's sons' as the Lord in respect of Divine Spiritual Good, dealt with in 9807, 10068. From these places it is evident that 'Aaron and his sons shall wash in it' means a representative sign of the purification of a person by the Lord. The reason why a representative sign of regeneration as well is meant is that regeneration as well was represented by washing, that is to say, washing the whole body, which was called baptizing. And baptizing or baptism is the sign of regeneration, see 4255, 9088.

[2] But regeneration is different from purification in that regeneration comes first and purification afterwards. None can be purified from evils and falsities except those who are undergoing regeneration and after they have been regenerated. One who has not been regenerated is, it is true, led away from evils so far as he allows, but he is not purified from them; he is all the time impure. The person who has been regenerated is different; day by day he is being made purer. This is how the Lord's words addressed to Peter should be understood,

He who has been washed has no need except to wash his feet, so that the whole person is clean. John 13:10.

'He who has been washed' means one who has been regenerated.

[3] The fact that the word 'baptizing' was used to denote the total washing of things is clear in Mark 7:4 1 , and to denote washing the whole body, in Matthew 3:13-16; Mark 1:9-10; and also 2 Kings 5:10, 14. The Jordan - in which washings, which were baptizings, took place, Matthew 3:6, 13; Mark 1:5; 2 Kings 5:10, 14 - meant the natural, 1585, 4255. Baptismal washing also means temptation, Matthew 20:22-23; it does so because all regeneration is accomplished by means of temptations, 5036, 5773, 8351, 8958, 8959ff.

[4] It must also be stated briefly here why it was that the Lord, when He was in the world, was Himself willing to be baptized, when yet baptism is the sign of a person's regeneration by Him. The reason was that the baptizing of the Lord Himself was a sign of the glorification of His Humanity. Anything in the Word that means a person's regeneration also means the glorification of the Human within the Lord; for a person's regeneration is an image of the Lord's glorification, 3138, 3212, 3296, 3490, 4402, 5688. This is why the Lord, when He allowed John to baptize Him, said,

Thus it is fitting for us to fulfill all the righteousness of God 2 . Matthew 3:15.

'Fulfilling all the righteousness of God' means subduing the hells, restoring them and the heavens to order, by His own power, and at the same time glorifying His Human. All this was accomplished by means of the temptations which the Lord allowed Himself to undergo, thus by means of the conflicts with the hells which He underwent repeatedly, even to the last on the Cross. These things constituted the righteousness which the Lord fulfilled, see 9486, 9715, 9809, 10019, 10152. The like is also meant by references to the fulfillment of all things written in the Law and the Prophets concerning the Lord, Luke 18:31; 22:37; 24:44, and by the Lord's declaration that He had come to fulfill all of the law, Matthew 5:17-18.

[5] A person unacquainted with the arcana within the Word thinks that the Lord became righteousness through His fulfillment of everything in the law, and that by this fulfillment He freed the human race from the yoke of the law, and so from damnation. But that is not what these words mean. Rather their meaning is that He became righteousness through His subduing of the hells, restoration of the heavens to order, and glorification of His Human. For by this glorification He filled Himself with power, in order that by His Divine Human He could keep the hells in subjection forever, maintain the heavens in order, and so regenerate a person, that is, deliver him from the hells and save him.

Poznámky pod čarou:

1. i.e. the Greek verb used in that verse is baptizein, which implies total immersion in water.

2. Here Swedenborg is following the Latin version of Sebastian Schmidt. There is nothing in the Greek to support the addition of God.
