Levitiko 1

Studie

1 La Eternulo vokis Moseon, kaj ekparolis al li el la tabernaklo de kunveno, dirante:

2 Parolu al la Izraelidoj, kaj diru al ili:Se iu el vi volas alporti oferon al la Eternulo, el la brutoj, el la bovoj, kaj el la sxafoj alportu vian oferon.

3 Se lia ofero estas brulofero el bovoj, li oferu virseksulon sendifektan; al la pordo de la tabernaklo de kunveno li alkonduku gxin, por favorigi al si la Eternulon.

4 Kaj li metu sian manon sur la kapon de la brulofero, kaj li akiros favoron kaj pekpardonon.

5 Kaj li bucxu la bovidon antaux la Eternulo; kaj la filoj de Aaron, la pastroj, alportu la sangon kaj aspergu per la sango cxirkauxe la altaron, kiu estas cxe la pordo de la tabernaklo de kunveno.

6 Kaj oni senfeligu la bruloferon kaj dishaku gxin en pecojn.

7 Kaj la filoj de la pastro Aaron metu fajron sur la altaron kaj metu lignon sur la fajron.

8 Kaj la filoj de Aaron, la pastroj, metu la pecojn, la kapon, kaj la grason, sur la lignon, kiu estas sur la fajro sur la altaro.

9 Kaj la internajxon kaj la krurojn oni lavu per akvo; kaj la pastro forbruligu cxion sur la altaro kiel bruloferon; gxi estas fajrofero, agrabla odorajxo al la Eternulo.

10 Kaj se lia ofero estas el la malgrandaj brutoj, el la sxafoj aux el la kaproj, brulofero, li alportu gxin virseksan, sendifektan.

11 Kaj li bucxu gxin sur la norda flanko de la altaro antaux la Eternulo; kaj la filoj de Aaron, la pastroj, aspergu per gxia sango la altaron cxirkauxe.

12 Kaj oni dishaku gxin en pecojn, apartiginte la kapon kaj la grason, kaj la pastro metu ilin sur la lignon, kiu estas sur la fajro sur la altaro.

13 Kaj la internajxon kaj la krurojn oni lavu per akvo; kaj la pastro cxion alportu kaj forbruligu sur la altaro kiel bruloferon; gxi estas fajrofero, agrabla odorajxo al la Eternulo.

14 Kaj se el la birdoj estas lia brulofero al la Eternulo, li alportu sian oferon el turtoj aux el kolombidoj.

15 Kaj la pastro alportu gxin al la altaro kaj fortordu gxian kapon kaj forbruligu gxin sur la altaro kaj elfluigu gxian sangon super la muro de la altaro.

16 Kaj gxian kropon kun gxiaj plumoj li forigu kaj jxetu gxin apud la altaron sur la orientan flankon en la cindrejon.

17 Kaj li disfendu gxiajn flugilojn, sed ne derompu; kaj la pastro forbruligu gxin sur la altaro, sur la ligno, kiu estas sur la fajro; gxi estas brulofero, fajrofero, agrabla odorajxo al la Eternulo.

287. Because these are the origins of peace, the Lord is called the Prince of Peace and says that peace comes from him and that peace is in him. So too angels are called angels of peace and heaven the dwelling place of peace, as in the following passages:

A child is born to us, a son is given to us, on whose shoulder the government [shall rest], and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, God, Hero, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace; of the increase of government and peace there shall be no end. (Isaiah 9:5-6 9:6-7)

Jesus said, "Peace I leave with you, my peace I give you, not as the world gives do I give to you." (John 14:27)

I have told you these things so that you might have peace in me. (John 16:33)

May Jehovah lift his face to you and give you peace. (Numbers 6:26)

The angels of peace weep bitterly, the highways are ruined. (Isaiah 33:7-8)

The work of justice will be peace, and my people will live in a dwelling place of peace. (Isaiah 32:17-18)

[2] We may also gather that "peace" in the Word means divine and heavenly peace from other passages where it is mentioned, as for example in Isaiah 52:7; 54:10; 59:8; Jeremiah 16:5; 25:37; 29:11; Haggai 2:9; Zechariah 8:12; Psalms 37:37; and elsewhere.

Because peace means the Lord and heaven and also heavenly joy and the delight of good, greetings in ancient times were - and consequently still are-"Peace be with you." The Lord confirmed this, too, when he sent out his disciples and told them, "When you enter a house, first say 'Peace be upon this house'; and if a child of peace is there, let your peace rest upon it" (Luke 10:5-6). Further, the Lord himself said "Peace be with you" when he appeared to the apostles (John 20:19, 21, 26).

[3] A state of peace is also meant in the Word when it says that "Jehovah smelled an odor of quietness," as in Exodus 29:18, 25, 41; Leviticus 1:9, 13, 17, 2:2, 9, 6:8, 14 6:15, 21?; Leviticus 23:12-13, 18; Numbers 15:3, 7, 13, 28:6, 8, 13, 29:2, 6, 8, 13, 36. "An odor of quietness," in the heavenly sense, means a perception of peace. 1

Since peace means the oneness of the Divine itself and the divine human in the Lord and the union of the Lord with heaven and with the church and with everyone in heaven, and also with everyone in the church who accepts him, the Sabbath was instituted as a reminder of these matters and was named for quietness and peace. It became the holiest symbol of the church, which is why the Lord called himself the Lord of the Sabbath (Matthew 12:8; Mark 2:27-28; Luke 6:5). 2

Poznámky pod čarou:

1. [Swedenborg's footnote] An odor in the Word means a perception of something pleasant or unpleasant, depending on the quality of the love and faith of the entity described: 3577, 4626, 4628, 4748, 5021 [5621?], 10292. An odor of quietness, in relation to Jehovah, means a perception of peace: 925, 10054. So frankincense, various kinds of incense, and the fragrances in oils and salves came to be representative: 925, 4748, 5621, 10177.

2. [Swedenborg's footnote] In the highest sense, the Sabbath means the oneness of the Divine itself with the divine human in the Lord; and in the inner sense the union of the Lord's divine human with heaven and the church. In a general sense it means the union of the good and the true and therefore the heavenly marriage: 8495, 10356, 10730. So the rest on the Sabbath day meant the state of that oneness, because then the Lord has rest, through which peace and salvation come to the heavens and to earth; and in a relative sense it means the union of the Lord with us, because then we have peace and salvation: 8494, 8510, 10360, 10367, 10370, 10374, 10668, 10730.

Genesis 8

Studie

   

1 God remembered Noah, all the animals, and all the livestock that were with him in the ship; and God made a wind to pass over the earth. The waters subsided.

2 The deep's fountains and the sky's windows were also stopped, and the rain from the sky was restrained.

3 The waters receded from the earth continually. After the end of one hundred fifty days the waters decreased.

4 The ship rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on Ararat's mountains.

5 The waters receded continually until the tenth month. In the tenth month, on the first day of the month, the tops of the mountains were seen.

6 It happened at the end of forty days, that Noah opened the window of the ship which he had made,

7 and he sent forth a raven. It went back and forth, until the waters were dried up from the earth.

8 He sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters were abated from the surface of the ground,

9 but the dove found no place to rest her foot, and she returned to him into the ship; for the waters were on the surface of the whole earth. He put forth his hand, and took her, and brought her to him into the ship.

10 He stayed yet another seven days; and again he sent forth the dove out of the ship.

11 The dove came back to him at evening, and, behold, in her mouth was an olive leaf plucked off. So Noah knew that the waters were abated from the earth.

12 He stayed yet another seven days, and sent forth the dove; and she didn't return to him any more.

13 It happened in the six hundred first year, in the first month, the first day of the month, the waters were dried up from the earth. Noah removed the covering of the ship, and looked. He saw that the surface of the ground was dried.

14 In the second month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, the earth was dry.

15 God spoke to Noah, saying,

16 "Go out of the ship, you, and your wife, and your sons, and your sons' wives with you.

17 Bring forth with you every living thing that is with you of all flesh, including birds, livestock, and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth, that they may breed abundantly in the earth, and be fruitful, and multiply on the earth."

18 Noah went forth, with his sons, his wife, and his sons' wives with him.

19 Every animal, every creeping thing, and every bird, whatever moves on the earth, after their families, went out of the ship.

20 Noah built an altar to Yahweh, and took of every clean animal, and of every clean bird, and offered burnt offerings on the altar.

21 Yahweh smelled the pleasant aroma. Yahweh said in his heart, "I will not again curse the ground any more for man's sake, because the imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth; neither will I ever again strike everything living, as I have done.

22 While the earth remains, seed time and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease."
