Studie

   

1 Kaj vi alproksimigu al vi vian fraton Aaron kaj liajn filojn kun li el inter la Izraelidoj, por ke li estu Mia pastro:Aaron, kaj Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, kaj Itamar, la filoj de Aaron.

2 Kaj faru sanktajn vestojn por via frato Aaron, por honoro kaj ornamo.

3 Kaj diru al cxiuj, kiuj havas sagxan koron kaj kiujn Mi plenigis per spirito de sagxo, ke ili faru por Aaron vestojn, por sanktigi lin, ke li estu Mia pastro.

4 Kaj jen estas la vestoj, kiujn ili devas fari:surbrustajxo, efodo, tuniko, hxitono teksita, cidaro, kaj zono. Kaj ili faru sanktajn vestojn por via frato Aaron kaj por liaj filoj, ke li estu Mia pastro.

5 Kaj ili prenu oron, kaj bluan, purpuran, kaj rugxan teksajxon, kaj bisinon.

6 Kaj ili faru la efodon el oro, el blua, purpura, kaj rugxa teksajxo, kaj el tordita bisino, en artista maniero.

7 Du sursxultrajxojn kunigantajn gxi havu sur siaj Du finoj, por ke gxi estu ligita.

8 Kaj la cxirkauxliganta zono sur gxi estu la sama laborajxo, kiel gxia kontinuajxo, el oro, el blua, purpura, kaj rugxa teksajxo, kaj el tordita bisino.

9 Kaj prenu du oniksajn sxtonojn, kaj gravuru sur ili la nomojn de la filoj de Izrael:

10 ses el iliaj nomoj sur unu sxtono kaj la ses ceterajn nomojn sur la dua sxtono, laux la ordo de ilia naskigxo.

11 Per laboro de gravuristoj, kiel sigelila gravurado, gravurigu sur la du sxtonoj la nomojn de la filoj de Izrael; faru ilin cxirkauxataj per kadretoj el oro.

12 Kaj metu la du sxtonojn sur la sursxultrajxojn de la efodo, kiel sxtonojn de memoro pri la filoj de Izrael; kaj Aaron portu iliajn nomojn antaux la Eternulo sur siaj du sursxultrajxoj por memoro.

13 Kaj faru kadretojn el oro;

14 kaj du cxenetojn el pura oro; faru ilin kunigxantaj per siaj finoj, plektitaj; kaj alfortikigu la plektitajn cxenetojn al la kadretoj.

15 Kaj faru jugxan surbrustajxon per artista laboro; simile al la laboro de la efodo faru gxin; el oro, el blua, purpura, kaj rugxa teksajxo, kaj el tordita bisino faru gxin.

16 Kvarangula gxi estu kaj duobla; manstrecxo estu gxia longo, kaj manstrecxo gxia largxo.

17 Kaj enmetu en gxin enmetajxon el sxtonoj en kvar vicoj. La sxtonoj de vico:rubeno, topazo, kaj smeraldo estu la unua vico;

18 kaj la dua vico:hiacinto, safiro, kaj jaspiso;

19 kaj la tria vico:ligurio, agato, kaj ametisto;

20 kaj la kvara vico:krizolito, kaj onikso, kaj berilo. En oraj kadretoj ili estu laux siaj vicoj.

21 Kaj la sxtonoj estu laux la nomoj de la filoj de Izrael; dek du, laux iliaj nomoj, gravuritaj sigelile, cxiu kun sia nomo, por la dek du triboj.

22 Kaj faru al la surbrustajxo plektitajn cxenetojn, kunigxantajn per siaj finoj, el pura oro.

23 Kaj faru por la surbrustajxo du orajn ringojn, kaj alfortikigu la du ringojn al la du finoj de la surbrustajxo.

24 Kaj metu la du orajn plektitajn cxenetojn en la du ringojn cxe la finoj de la surbrustajxo.

25 Kaj la du finojn de la du plektitaj cxenetoj enfortikigu en la du kadretojn, kaj alfortikigu ilin al la sursxultrajxoj de la efodo sur la antauxa flanko.

26 Kaj faru du orajn ringojn, kaj alfortikigu ilin al la du aliaj finoj de la surbrustajxo, sur interna gxia rando, direktita al la efodo.

27 Kaj faru du orajn ringojn, kaj alfortikigu ilin al la du sursxultrajxoj de la efodo malsupre, sur la antauxa flanko, cxe gxia kunigxo, super la zono de la efodo.

28 Kaj oni alligu la surbrustajxon per gxiaj ringoj al la ringoj de la efodo per lacxo el blua sxtofo, por ke gxi estu super la zono de la efodo kaj por ke la surbrustajxo ne forsxovigxu de sur la efodo.

29 Kaj Aaron portu la nomojn de la filoj de Izrael sur la jugxa surbrustajxo sur sia koro, kiam li eniros en la sanktejon, por cxiama memoro antaux la Eternulo.

30 Kaj metu sur la jugxan surbrustajxon la signojn de lumo kaj la signojn de justo, por ke ili estu sur la koro de Aaron, kiam li eniros antaux la Eternulon; kaj Aaron cxiam portu la jugxon de la filoj de Izrael sur sia koro antaux la Eternulo.

31 Kaj faru la tunikon de la efodo tutan el blua teksajxo.

32 La aperturo por la kapo estu en gxia mezo; cxirkaux la aperturo estu teksita bordero, kiel cxe aperturo de sxildo, por ke gxi ne dissxirigxu.

33 Sur gxia malsupra rando faru granatojn el blua, purpura, kaj rugxa teksajxo, cxirkauxe sur gxia malsupra rando, kaj inter ili cxirkauxe orajn tintilojn.

34 Ora tintilo kaj granato, Ora tintilo kaj granato estu cxirkauxe sur la malsupra rando de la tuniko.

35 GXi estu sur Aaron dum lia servado; por ke oni auxdu sonon de li, kiam li eniros en la sanktejon antaux la Eternulon kaj kiam li eliros, kaj por ke li ne mortu.

36 Kaj faru tabuleton el pura oro, kaj gravuru sur gxi en sigelila maniero:SANKTA AL LA ETERNULO.

37 Kaj alfortikigu gxin per lacxo el blua sxtofo, ke gxi estu sur la cidaro; sur la antauxa flanko de la cidaro gxi devas esti.

38 GXi estu sur la frunto de Aaron; kaj Aaron portados la pekon kontraux la sanktajxoj, kiujn sanktigos la Izraelidoj en cxiuj siaj sanktaj donoj; kaj gxi estos sur lia frunto cxiam, por ke la Eternulo ilin favoru.

39 Kaj teksu la hxitonon el bisino, kaj faru la cidaron el bisino, kaj faru broditan zonon.

40 Kaj por la filoj de Aaron faru hxitonojn, kaj faru por ili zonojn, kaj mitrojn faru por ili, por honoro kaj ornamo.

41 Kaj vestu per ili vian fraton Aaron kaj liajn filojn kune kun li; kaj sanktoleu ilin kaj konsekru ilin kaj sanktigu ilin, por ke ili estu pastroj al Mi.

42 Kaj faru por ili linajn pantalonojn, por kovri la nudecon de ilia karno; de la lumbo gxis la femuroj ili estu.

43 Kaj ili estu sur Aaron kaj sur liaj filoj, kiam ili eniros en la tabernaklon de kunveno, aux kiam ili alproksimigxos al la altaro, por servi en la sanktejo; por ke ili ne faru pekon kaj ne mortu. Eterna legxo gxi estu por li kaj por lia idaro post li.

9437. 'And Moses was in the mountain forty days and forty nights' means the instructions given and influx in their completeness. This is clear from the meaning of 'forty' as completeness. 'Forty' means completeness because 'four' means that which is complete, 9103, as similarly does 'ten', 3107, 4638, and forty is the product of four multiplied by ten. For compound numbers have a meaning similar to the simple numbers of which they are the product, 5291, 5335, 5708, 7973; and all numbers in the Word mean spiritual realities, see 575, 3252, 4264, 4495, 4670, 5265, 6175. All this goes to explain why Moses was in the mountain forty days and forty nights. The fact that 'forty' here means the instructions given and the influx in their completeness is evident from Chapters 25-32 which come next, recording the instructions Moses received, that is, instructions regarding the ark, Aaron, the urim and thummim, and sacrifices. The reason why influx in its completeness is also meant is that at that time Moses began to represent the outward holiness of the Word, which acted as the intermediary between the Lord and the people, and mediation is accomplished by means of influx through that holiness into the representative existing among that people, 9419.

[2] It was because 'forty' represented completeness that Moses remained on Mount Sinai forty days and forty nights not only this time but also on another occasion, Exodus 34:28; Deuteronomy 9:18, 25; 10:10. For the same reason the children of Israel wandered in the wilderness forty years until, as it says in Numbers 14:33-34; 32:13, all that generation had been consumed; Jonah told the Ninevites that their city would be overturned after forty days, Jonah 3:4; the prophet was commanded to lie on his right side and bear the iniquity of the house of Judah forty days, Ezekiel 4:6; it says regarding Egypt that it would be made completely desolate for forty years, after which they would be gathered from the peoples, Ezekiel 29:11-13; and the earth was rained on forty days and forty nights, so that it was inundated with the flood, Genesis 7:4, 12, 17. From all this it is evident why the wicked person was to receive forty blows, Deuteronomy 25:3, for 'forty blows' meant the punishment in its completeness. It is also evident what should be understood in the prophecy of Deborah and Barak when it says that no shield or spear was seen among the forty thousand of Israel, Judges 5:8, 'among the forty thousand of Israel' meaning among them all. It is in addition evident why the temple built by Solomon was forty cubits long, 1 Kings 6:17, as was the new temple, according to Ezekiel 41:2; for in the highest sense 'the temple' means the Lord, and in the internal sense heaven and the Church, so that 'forty' means completeness in respect of representation. And it has a like meaning in other places.

Exodus 12

Studie

   

1 Yahweh spoke to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying,

2 "This month shall be to you the beginning of months. It shall be the first month of the year to you.

3 Speak to all the congregation of Israel, saying, 'On the tenth day of this month, they shall take to them every man a lamb, according to their fathers' houses, a lamb for a household;

4 and if the household is too little for a lamb, then he and his neighbor next to his house shall take one according to the number of the souls; according to what everyone can eat you shall make your count for the lamb.

5 Your lamb shall be without blemish, a male a year old. You shall take it from the sheep, or from the goats:

6 and you shall keep it until the fourteenth day of the same month; and the whole assembly of the congregation of Israel shall kill it at evening.

7 They shall take some of the blood, and put it on the two doorposts and on the lintel, on the houses in which they shall eat it.

8 They shall eat the flesh in that night, roasted with fire, and unleavened bread. They shall eat it with bitter herbs.

9 Don't eat it raw, nor boiled at all with water, but roasted with fire; with its head, its legs and its inner parts.

10 You shall let nothing of it remain until the morning; but that which remains of it until the morning you shall burn with fire.

11 This is how you shall eat it: with your belt on your waist, your shoes on your feet, and your staff in your hand; and you shall eat it in haste: it is Yahweh's Passover.

12 For I will go through the land of Egypt in that night, and will strike all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and animal. Against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgments: I am Yahweh.

13 The blood shall be to you for a token on the houses where you are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and there shall no plague be on you to destroy you, when I strike the land of Egypt.

14 This day shall be to you for a memorial, and you shall keep it a feast to Yahweh: throughout your generations you shall keep it a feast by an ordinance forever.

15 "'Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread; even the first day you shall put away yeast out of your houses, for whoever eats leavened bread from the first day until the seventh day, that soul shall be cut off from Israel.

16 In the first day there shall be to you a holy convocation, and in the seventh day a holy convocation; no kind of work shall be done in them, except that which every man must eat, that only may be done by you.

17 You shall observe the feast of unleavened bread; for in this same day have I brought your armies out of the land of Egypt: therefore you shall observe this day throughout your generations by an ordinance forever.

18 In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month at evening, you shall eat unleavened bread, until the twenty first day of the month at evening.

19 Seven days shall there be no yeast found in your houses, for whoever eats that which is leavened, that soul shall be cut off from the congregation of Israel, whether he be a foreigner, or one who is born in the land.

20 You shall eat nothing leavened. In all your habitations you shall eat unleavened bread.'"

21 Then Moses called for all the elders of Israel, and said to them, "Draw out, and take lambs according to your families, and kill the Passover.

22 You shall take a bunch of hyssop, and dip it in the blood that is in the basin, and strike the lintel and the two doorposts with the blood that is in the basin; and none of you shall go out of the door of his house until the morning.

23 For Yahweh will pass through to strike the Egyptians; and when he sees the blood on the lintel, and on the two doorposts, Yahweh will pass over the door, and will not allow the destroyer to come in to your houses to strike you.

24 You shall observe this thing for an ordinance to you and to your sons forever.

25 It shall happen when you have come to the land which Yahweh will give you, according as he has promised, that you shall keep this service.

26 It will happen, when your children ask you, 'What do you mean by this service?'

27 that you shall say, 'It is the sacrifice of Yahweh's Passover, who passed over the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt, when he struck the Egyptians, and spared our houses.'" The people bowed their heads and worshiped.

28 The children of Israel went and did so; as Yahweh had commanded Moses and Aaron, so they did.

29 It happened at midnight, that Yahweh struck all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who sat on his throne to the firstborn of the captive who was in the dungeon; and all the firstborn of livestock.

30 Pharaoh rose up in the night, he, and all his servants, and all the Egyptians; and there was a great cry in Egypt, for there was not a house where there was not one dead.

31 He called for Moses and Aaron by night, and said, "Rise up, get out from among my people, both you and the children of Israel; and go, serve Yahweh, as you have said!

32 Take both your flocks and your herds, as you have said, and be gone; and bless me also!"

33 The Egyptians were urgent with the people, to send them out of the land in haste, for they said, "We are all dead men."

34 The people took their dough before it was leavened, their kneading troughs being bound up in their clothes on their shoulders.

35 The children of Israel did according to the word of Moses; and they asked of the Egyptians jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and clothing.

36 Yahweh gave the people favor in the sight of the Egyptians, so that they let them have what they asked. They despoiled the Egyptians.

37 The children of Israel traveled from Rameses to Succoth, about six hundred thousand on foot who were men, besides children.

38 A mixed multitude went up also with them, with flocks, herds, and even very much livestock.

39 They baked unleavened cakes of the dough which they brought forth out of Egypt; for it wasn't leavened, because they were thrust out of Egypt, and couldn't wait, neither had they prepared for themselves any food.

40 Now the time that the children of Israel lived in Egypt was four hundred thirty years.

41 It happened at the end of four hundred thirty years, even the same day it happened, that all the armies of Yahweh went out from the land of Egypt.

42 It is a night to be much observed to Yahweh for bringing them out from the land of Egypt. This is that night of Yahweh, to be much observed of all the children of Israel throughout their generations.

43 Yahweh said to Moses and Aaron, "This is the ordinance of the Passover. No foreigner shall eat of it,

44 but every man's servant who is bought for money, when you have circumcised him, then shall he eat of it.

45 A foreigner and a hired servant shall not eat of it.

46 In one house shall it be eaten; you shall not carry forth anything of the flesh abroad out of the house; neither shall you break a bone of it.

47 All the congregation of Israel shall keep it.

48 When a stranger shall live as a foreigner with you, and will keep the Passover to Yahweh, let all his males be circumcised, and then let him come near and keep it; and he shall be as one who is born in the land: but no uncircumcised person shall eat of it.

49 One law shall be to him who is born at home, and to the stranger who lives as a foreigner among you."

50 All the children of Israel did so. As Yahweh commanded Moses and Aaron, so they did.

51 It happened the same day, that Yahweh brought the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt by their armies.
