Exodus 29

Studie

   

1 Således skal du bære dig ad med dem, når du helliger dem til at gøre Præstetjeneste for mig: Tag en ung Tyr, to lydefri Vædre,

2 usyrede Brød, usyrede Kager, rørte i Olie, og usyrede Fladbrød, smurte med Olie; af fint Hvedemel skal du bage dem.

3 Læg dem så i een Kurv og bær dem frem i Kurven sammen med Tyren og de to Vædre.

4 Lad derpå Aron og hans Sønner træde hen til Åbenbaringsteltets Indgang og tvæt dem med Vand.

5 Tag så Klæderne og ifør Aron Kjortelen, Efodkåben, Efoden og Brystskjoldet og bind Efoden fast på ham med Bæltet.

6 Læg Hovedklædet om hans Hoved og fæst det hellige Diadem på Hovedklædet.

7 Tag så Salveolien og udgyd den på hans Hoved og salv ham.

8 Lad dernæst hans Sønner træde frem og ifør dem Kjortler,

9 omgjord dem med Bælter og bind Huerne på dem. Og Præsteværdigheden skal tilhøre dem med evig et. Så skal du indsætte Aron og hans Sønner.

10 Før Tyren frem foran Åbenbaringsteltet, og Aron og hans Sønner skal lægge deres Hænder på Tyrens Hoved.

11 Slagt så Tyren for HE ENs Åsyn ved Indgangen til Åbenbaringsteltet

12 og tag noget af Tyrens Blod og stryg det på Alterets Horn med din Finger og udgyd esten af Blodet ved Alterets Fod.

13 Tag så alt Fedtet på Indvoldene, Leverlappen og begge Nyrerne med Fedtet på dem og bring det som øgoffer på Alteret;

14 men Tyrens Kød, dens Hud og dens Skarn skal du brænde uden for Lejren. Det er et Syndoffer.

15 Derpå skal du tage den ene Væder, og Aron og hans Sønner skal lægge deres Hænder på dens Hoved.

16 Slagt så Væderen, tag dens Blod og spræng det rundt om på Alteret.

17 Skær så Væderen i Stykker, tvæt dens Indvolde og Skinneben, læg dem på Stykkerne og Hovedet

18 og bring så hele Væderen som øgoffer på Alteret. Det er et Brændoffer for HE EN; en liflig Duft, et Ildoffer for HE EN er det.

19 Derpå skal du tage den anden Væder, og Aron og hans Sønner skal lægge deres Hænder på dens Hoved.

20 Slagt så Væderen, tag noget af dens Blod og stryg det på Arons og hans Sønners højre Øreflip og på deres højre Tommelfinger og højre Tommeltå og spræng esten af Blodet rundt om på Alteret.

21 Tag så noget af Blodet på Alteret og af Salveolien og stænk det på Aron og hans Klæder, ligeledes på hans Sønner og deres Klæder. så bliver han hellig, han selv og hans Klæder og ligeledes hans Sønner og deres Klæder.

22 Derpå skal du tage Fedtet af Væderen, Fedthalen, Fedtet på Indvoldene, Leverlappen, begge Nyrerne med Fedtet på dem, dertil den højre Kølle, thi det er en Indsættelsesvæder,

23 og en Skive Brød, en Oliebrødkage og et Fladbrød af Kurven med de usyrede Brød, som står for HE ENs Åsyn,

24 og lægge det alt sammen på Arons og hans Sønners Hænder og lade dem udføre Svingningen dermed for HE ENs Åsyn.

25 Tag det så igen fra dem og bring det som øgoffer på Alteret oven på Brændofferet til en liflig Duft for HE ENs Åsyn, et Ildoffer er det for HE EN.

26 Tag derpå Brystet af Arons Indsættelsesvæder og udfør Svingningen dermed for HE ENs Åsyn: det skal være din Del.

27 Således skal du hellige Svingningsbrystet og Offerydelseskøllen. det, hvormed Svingningen udføres. og det, som ydes af Arons og hans Sønners Indsættelsesvæder.

28 Og det skal tilfalde Aron og hans Sønner som en ettighed, de har Krav på fra Israeliternes Side til evig Tid; thi det er en Offerydelse, og som Offerydelse skal Israeliterne give det af deres Takofre, som deres Offerydelse til HE EN.

29 Arons hellige Klæder skal tilfalde hans Sønner efter ham, for at de kan salves og indsættes i dem.

30 I syv Dage skal de bæres af den af hans Sønner, som bliver Præst i hans Sted, den, som skal gå ind i Åbenbaringsteltet for at gøre Tjeneste i Helligdommen.

31 Så skal du tage Indsættelsesvæderen og koge dens Kød på et helligt Sted;

32 og Aron og hans Sønner skal spise Væderens Kød og Brødet i Kurven ved Indgangen til Åbenbaringsteltet;

33 de skal spise de Stykker, hvorved der skaffes Soning ved deres Indsættelse og Indvielse, og ingen Lægmand må spise deraf, thi det er helligt.

34 Og dersom der bliver noget af Indsættelseskødet eller Brødet tilovers til næste Morgen, da skal du opbrænde det tiloversblevne; spises må det ikke, thi det er helligt.

35 Således skal du forholde dig over for Aron og hans Sønner, ganske som jeg har pålagt dig. Syv Dage skal du foretage Indsættelsen;

36 daglig skal du ofre en Syndoffertyr til Soning og rense Alteret for Synd ved at fuldbyrde Soningen på det, og du skal salve det for at hellige det.

37 Syv dage skal du fuldbyrde Soningen på Alteret og hellige det; således bliver Alteret højhelligt; enhver, der kommer i Berøring med Alteret, bliver hellig".

38 Hvad du skal ofre på Alteret, er følgende: Hver Dag to årgamle Lam som stadigt Offer.

39 Det ene Lam skal du ofre om Morgenen og det andet ved Aftenstid.

40 Sammen med det første Lam skal du bringe en Tiendedel Efa fint Hvedemel, rørt i en Fjerdedel Hin Olie af knuste Oliven, og et Drikoffer af en Fjerdedel Hin Vin.

41 Og det andet Lam skal du ofre ved Aftenstid; sammen med det skal du ofre et Afgrødeoffer og et Drikoffer som om Morgenen til en liflig Duft, et Ildoffer for HE EN.

42 Det skal være et stadigt Brændoffer, som I skal bringe, Slægt efter Slægt, ved Indgangen til Åbenbaringsteltet for HE ENs Åsyn, hvor jeg vil åbenbare mig for dig for at tale til dig,

43 og hvor jeg vil åbenbare mig for Israels Børn, og det skal helliges ved min Herlighed.

44 Jeg vil hellige Åbenbaringsteltet og Alteret, og Aron og hans Sønner vil jeg hellige til at gøre Præstetjeneste for mig.

45 Og jeg vil bo midt iblandt Israels Børn og være deres Gud;

46 og de skal kende, at jeg HE EN er deres Gud, som førte dem ud af Ægypten for at bo midt iblandt dem, jeg HE EN deres Gud!

10097. 'And it shall be a heave offering from among the children of Israel from their peace-offering sacrifices, it is a heave offering to Jehovah' means reception in the heavens and in the Church, and acknowledgement that they are the Lord's alone. This too is clear from what has been shown above in 10093. The words 'from peace-offering sacrifices' are used because worship offered in freedom is meant by those sacrifices; for peace-offering or eucharistic sacrifices were voluntary ones, and voluntary offerings are those which a person gives in freedom. That which is done out of love, and so because the will desires it, is said to be 'free'; for what a person loves, that he wills. The Lord flows into the person's love, thus into his will, and enables him to receive what he receives in freedom; and what he receives in freedom, that too becomes free. The person loves it, and consequently it becomes part of his life. From this it is evident what worship offered in freedom, meant by 'peace-offering sacrifices' or voluntary ones, is. It is also evident what is meant by a heave offering from those sacrifices, namely the fact that they are the Lord's alone.

All worship in general is meant by 'sacrifices', see 6905, 8936, 10042.

A person's freedom belongs essentially to what he loves, 2870-2893, 3158, 4031, 7349, 9096, 9585-9591.

10093. 'That which has been waved, and that which has been heaved up' means what has been acknowledged and what has been perceived. This is clear from the meaning of the words 'that which has been waved', when they refer to the breast, as that which has been endowed with life through acknowledgement, dealt with above in 10091; and from the meaning of 'that which has been heaved up' as the Divine Celestial, which is the Lord's alone, perceived in heaven and in the Church, dealt with below. The implications of all this must be stated briefly. There are two kingdoms which comprise the heavens, the celestial and the spiritual. Divine Truth is acknowledged in the spiritual kingdom but perceived in the celestial kingdom. The reason why this should be so is that Divine Truth in the spiritual kingdom is received in the understanding part of the mind but in the celestial kingdom in the will part. What is received in the understanding part is termed 'acknowledged', and what is received in the will part is spoken of as 'perceived'. Furthermore those in the spiritual kingdom can do no more than acknowledge Divine Truth, whereas those in the celestial kingdom are able to perceive it. See what has been shown abundantly regarding those two kingdoms in the places referred to in 9277, 9596, 9684.

[2] As regards 'the heave offering', that which was Jehovah's or the Lord's and was given to Aaron on account of his representation is called 'the heave offering'. And since Aaron represented the Lord in respect of Divine Good, 9806, that part of sacrifices which was heaved up and given to Aaron represented that which is Divine and the Lord's, and is also called 'the anointing', in Moses,

The breast of the wave offering and the flank of the heave offering I have received from among the children of Israel from their eucharistic sacrifices, and I have given them to Aaron the priest and to his sons by a statute forever 1 from among the children of Israel. This is the anointing of Aaron and the anointing of his sons from the fire offerings to Jehovah, on the day he presented them 2 , to serve Jehovah in the priestly office. Leviticus 7:34-35.

The expression 'the anointing' is used because 'anointing' means consecrating to serve as a representative sign of the Lord in respect of Divine Good, see 9954, 10019. And in another place in the same author,

Jehovah spoke to Aaron, Behold, I have given you charge of My heave offerings; as regards all the holy things of the children of Israel, I have given them to you for the anointing, and to your sons. Yours shall the heave offering of [their] gift be, as regards every wave offering of the children of Israel, all the best 3 of pure oil, and all the best 3 of the new wine and the grain, of the firstfruits; and as regards all the firstfruits which they will give to Jehovah, they shall be yours. As regards every devoted thing, everything opening the womb of all flesh which they will bring to Jehovah, [it shall be yours.] From the firstborn of cow, sheep, and she-goat, the flesh shall be yours, just as the breast of the wave offering and just as the right flank are. Every heave offering of the holy things [I have given you]. You shall have no portion or inheritance in the land, because Jehovah is your portion and inheritance. Also, every heave offering from the tithes and the gifts which have been made to the Levites. Numbers 18:8-29.

From all this it is evident what the term 'heave offering' denotes, namely all the things that were Jehovah's, that is, the Lord's.

[3] And since the Levites represented the Divine Truths in heaven and in the Church which serve Divine Good, they were also given to Aaron instead of all the firstborn, which were Jehovah's, that is, the Lord's. They are spoken of in Moses as follows,

I have taken the Levites from the midst of the children of Israel, instead of every firstborn, that which opens the womb, from the children of Israel, that the Levites may be Mine; for every firstborn is Mine. And since the Levites have been given to Me, I have given them as gifts to Aaron and his sons. Numbers 3:12-13; 8:16-19.

Heave offerings are spoken of as gifts presented to Jehovah, that is, to the Lord, from among the children of Israel; but it should be understood that they are Jehovah's not by virtue of their being a gift but because He is the real owner; for nothing holy or Divine with a person belongs to the person, only to the Lord present with him. All that is good and true, as is well known in the Church, thus all that is holy and Divine, comes from the Lord God, and none at all from the person; and from this it is evident that when the gift is said to come from the person, this is due to appearances. This also is why the next verse states,

For it is a heave offering, and it shall be a heave offering from among the children of Israel, it is a heave offering to Jehovah.

This means that the heave offering from the children of Israel belongs to Jehovah, thus that the gift from them is a gift from the Lord. From this it is evident what a heave offering is.
