Studie

   

1 Derpå lavede Bezal'el Arken af Akacietræ, halvtredje Alen lang, halvanden Alen bred og halvanden Alen høj,

2 og overtrak den indvendig og udvendig med purt Guld og satte en gylden Krans rundt om den.

3 Derefter støbte han fire Guldringe til den og satte dem på dens fire Fødder, to inge på hver Side af den.

4 Og han lavede Bærestænger af Akacietræ og overtrak dem med Guld;

5 så stak han Stængerne gennem ingene på Arkens Sider, for at den kunde bæres med dem.

6 Derpå lavede han Sonedækket af purt Guld, halvtredje Alen langt og halvanden Alen bredt,

7 og han lavede to Keruber af Guld, i drevet Arbejde lavede han dem, ved begge Ender af Sonedækket,

8 den ene Kerub ved den ene Ende, den anden Kerub ved den anden; han lavede Keruberne således, at de var i eet med Sonedækket ved begge Ender.

9 Og Keruberne bredte deres Vinger i Vejret, således at de dækkede over Sonedækket med deres Vinger; de vendte Ansigtet mod hinanden; nedad mod Sone,dækket vendte Kerubernes Ansigter.

10 Derpå lavede han Bordet af Akacietræ, to Alen langt, en Alen bredt og halvanden Alen højt,

11 og overtrak det med purt Guld og satte en gylden Krans rundt om det.

12 Og han satte en Liste af en Hånds Bredde rundt om det og en gylden Krans rundt om Listen.

13 Og han støbte fire Guldringe og satte dem på de fire Hjørner ved dets fire Ben.

14 Lige ved Listen sad ingene til at stikke Bærestængerne i, så at man kunde bære Bordet.

15 Og han lavede Bærestængerne at Akacietræ og overtrak dem med Guld, og med dem skulde Bordet bæres.

16 Og han lavede af purt Guld de Ting, som hørte til Bordet, Fadene og Kanderne, Skålene og Krukkerne til at udgyde Drikoffer med.

17 Derpå lavede han Lysestagen af purt Guld, i drevet Arbejde lavede han Lysestagen, dens Fod og selve Stagen, således at dens Blomster med Bægere og Kroner var i eet med den;

18 seks Arme udgik fra Lysestagens Sider, tre fra den ene og tre fra den anden Side.

19 På hver af Armene, der udgik fra Lysestagen, var der tre mandelblomstlignende Blomster med Bægere og Kroner,

20 men på selve Stagen var der fire mandelblomstlignende Blomster med Bægere og Kroner,

21 et Bæger under hvert af de tre Par Arme, der udgik fra den.

22 Bægrene og Armene var i eet med den, så at det hele udgjorde eet drevet Arbejde af purt Guld.

23 Derpå lavede han de syv Lamper til den, Lampesaksene og Bakkerne af purt Guld.

24 En Talent purt Guld brugte han til den og til alt dens Tilbehør.

25 Derpå lavede han øgelsealteret af Akacietræ, en Alen langt og en Alen bredt, i Firkant, og to Alen højt, og dets Horn var i eet med det.

26 Og han overtrak det med purt Guld, både Pladen og Siderne hele Vejen rundt og Hornene, og satte en Guldkrans rundt om;

27 og han satte to Guldringe under Kransen på begge Sider til at stikke Bærestængerne i, for at det kunde bæres med dem;

28 Bærestængerne lavede han af Akacietræ og overtrak dem med Guld.

29 Han tilberedte også den hellige Salveolie og den rene, vellugtende øgelse, som Salveblanderne laver den.

Exploring the Meaning of Exodus 37

Napsal(a) New Christian Bible Study Staff

Arcana Coelestia 10767. As in this chapter the ark, the lampstand, and the altar of incense are treated of, and the description given of them here is similar to that given in chapter 25, where each and all things have been unfolded in respect to the internal sense, they are therefore here passed by without further explication.

(See Arcana Coelestia 9455 and its following sections.)

10767. Exodus 37

1. And Bezalel made the ark of shittim wood; two cubits and a half was its length, and a cubit and a half its breadth, and a cubit and a half its height.

2. And he overlaid it with pure gold on the inside and on the outside, and made for it a rim of gold round about.

3. And he cast four rings of gold for it on its four corners; and two rings were on one rib 1 of it and two rings on the other rib 1 of it.

4. And he made poles from shittim wood, and overlaid them with gold.

5. And he put the poles into the rings on the ribs 2 of the ark, to carry the ark.

6. And he made the mercy-seat from pure gold; two cubits and a half was its length, and a cubit and a half its breadth.

7. And he made the two cherubs from gold; solid he made them 3 at the two ends of the mercy-seat.

8. One cherub was at the end on one side, and one cherub was at the end on the other side; of one piece with the mercy-seat he made the cherubs 4 at its two ends.

9. And the cherubs were spreading out their wings upwards, providing protection over the mercy-seat with their wings, and their faces of a man towards his brother 5 ; the faces of the cherubs were towards the mercy-seat.

10. And he made the table from shittim wood; two cubits was its length, and a cubit its breadth, and a cubit and a half its height.

11. And he overlaid it with pure gold; and he made for it a rim of gold round about.

12. And he made for it a rail of a hand's breadth round about; and he made a rim of gold for its rail round about.

13. And he cast for it four rings of gold, and he put the rings on the four corners which were on its four feet.

14. The rings were close to the rail, as receptacles for the poles to carry the table.

15. And he made the poles from shittim wood, and overlaid them with gold, to carry the table.

16. And he made the vessels which went on the table - its dishes, and its cups, and its small dishes, and its small brushes, with which it was to be covered - from pure gold.

17. And he made the lampstand from pure gold; solid made he the lampstand 6 . Its leg 7 and its branch, its cups, its pomegranates, and its flowers were of one piece with it 8 .

18. And there were six branches going out of its sides, three branches of the lampstand out of one side of it, and three branches of the lampstand out of the other side of it.

19. There were three almond-shaped cups on one branch, a pomegranate and a flower, and three almond-shaped cups going out of one branch 9 , a pomegranate and a flower - thus for the six branches going out of the lampstand.

20. And on [the leg 7 of] the lampstand there were four almond-shaped cups, its pomegranates and its flowers.

21. And there was a pomegranate under [the first] two branches out of it, and a pomegranate under [the second] two branches out of it, and a pomegranate under [the third] two branches out of it - for the six branches going out of it.

22. Their pomegranates and their branches were of one piece with it 8 ; the whole of it was one solid [piece made] from pure gold.

23. And he made its seven lamps, and its tongs and its trowels 10 , from pure gold.

24. With a talent of pure gold he made it, and all its vessels.

25. And he made the altar of incense from shittim wood. A cubit was its length, and a cubit its breadth; it was square. And two cubits was its height. Its horns were of one piece with it 8 .

26. And he overlaid it with pure gold, its roof 11 , and its walls 12 round about, and its horns; and he made for it a rim of gold round about.

27. And two rings of gold he made for it under its rim on its two ribs, on its two sides, to serve as receptacles for the poles, to carry it on them.

28. And he made the poles from shittim wood, and overlaid them with gold.

29. And he made the holy anointing oil 13 , and the pure incense of spices with the work of a perfumer.

CONTENTS

Since the subject in this chapter is the ark, the lampstand, and the altar of incense, and the description of them here is similar to that which has appeared before in Chapter Exodus 25 [and Chapter Exodus 30], where an explanation of the internal sense of every detail was given, these things are passed over here without any further explanation.
