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.

Tabernacle

  

In 1 Samuel 1:9, the tabernacle signifies the truth of faith with man. (Arcana Coelestia 2048)

A temple signifies the Lord's spiritual church; in a universal sense, the spiritual kingdom; in the highest sense, the Lord as to His Divine Truth. (Arcana Coelestia 3720)

In 1 Samuel 3:3, when the lamp had not been put out, and Samuel was sleeping in the tabernacle, this signifies that the extinction of truth in worship had not yet been fully accomplished. (Apocalypse Explained 403[18])

In Psalm 65:4, being satisfied with the goodness of the holy place of the temple signifies to be intelligent from divine truth, and to realize heavenly joy therefrom. (Apocalypse Explained 630[11])

In Revelation 21:22, that there is no temple in the New Jerusalem signifies that in that new church, the external worship will not be separate from internal. (Apocalypse Explained 918)

'The Tabernacle,' as in Revelation 13, signifies the church regarding doctrine and worship. 'The tabernacle' has almost the same meaning as 'temple,' that is, in the highest sense, the Lord's divine humanity, and in a relative sense, heaven and the church. But 'tabernacle' as heaven and the church signifies the celestial church, which is in the good of love from the Lord to the Lord, and 'temple,' the spiritual church, which is in the truths of wisdom from the Lord. 'The tabernacle' signifies the celestial kingdom, because the most ancient church, which was celestial, in a state of love to the Lord, performed divine worship in tabernacles. The ancient church, which was a spiritual church, performed divine worship in temples. Tabernacles were made of wood, and temples, stone. 'Wood' signifies good, and 'stone,' truth. Since the most ancient church, a celestial church, because of their love to the Lord, and resulting conjunction with Him, celebrated divine worship in tabernacles, so the Lord commanded Moses to build a tabernacle, which represented everything of heaven and the church. It was so holy, that it was not lawful for anyone to go into it, except Moses, Aaron, and his sons. If any of the people entered, they would die, as in Numbers 17:12-13, 18:1, 22, 23, and 19:14-19. The ark was in its center, which contained the two tables of the Decalogue, and was topped with the mercy seat and the cherubim. Outside of the veil, there were the table for the shew-bread, the altar of incense, and the candlestick with seven lamps. All of these things represented heaven and the church. The Tabernacle is described Exodus 26:7-16 and 36:8-37, and its design was shown to Moses on Mount Sinai, as in Exodus 25:9 and 26:30. Anything seen from heaven is representative of heaven, and so of the church. The feast of tabernacles was instituted in memory of the most holy worship of the Lord in tabernacles by the most ancient people, and of their conjunction with Him by love, as mentioned in Leviticus 23:39-44, Deuteronomy 16:13-14 and Zechariah 14:16-19.
