Levitiko 22

Studie

   

1 Kaj la Eternulo ekparolis al Moseo, dirante:

2 Diru al Aaron kaj al liaj filoj, ke ili agu singarde koncerne la sanktajxojn de la Izraelidoj, kaj ili ne malhonoru Mian sanktan nomon en tio, kion ili konsekras al Mi:Mi estas la Eternulo.

3 Diru al ili:Se iu en viaj generacioj el via tuta idaro aliros al la sanktajxoj, kiujn la Izraelidoj konsekras al la Eternulo, kaj li havos sur si malpurajxon, tiam tiu animo ekstermigxos de antaux Mi:Mi estas la Eternulo.

4 Se iu el la idaro de Aaron havos lepron aux elfluon, tiu ne mangxu la sanktajxojn, gxis li purigxos. Kiu ektusxis iun, kiu malpurigxis per mortinto, aux kiu havas elfluon de semo;

5 aux kiu ektusxis ian rampajxon, per kiu li malpurigxis, aux iun homon, de kiu li malpurigxis per ia lia malpurajxo;

6 tiu, ektusxinte tion, estos malpura gxis la vespero, kaj li ne mangxu la sanktajxojn, antaux ol li estos lavinta sian korpon per akvo.

7 Post la subiro de la suno li farigxos pura, kaj tiam li povas mangxi la sanktajxojn, cxar tio estas lia mangxajxo.

8 Kadavrajxon kaj ion, kion dissxiris bestoj, li ne mangxu, por ke li ne malpurigxu per tio:Mi estas la Eternulo.

9 Kaj ili observu Miajn ordonojn, por ke ili ne portu sur si pekon kaj ne mortu en gxi, se ili tion malhonoros:Mi estas la Eternulo, kiu ilin sanktigas.

10 Kaj neniu laiko mangxu sanktajxon; logxanto cxe pastro kaj ankaux dungito ne mangxu sanktajxon.

11 Se pastro acxetis homon per sia mono, tiu povas mangxi tion; kaj tiuj, kiuj naskigxis en lia domo, povas mangxi lian panon.

12 Se filino de pastro edzinigxis kun viro laika, sxi ne mangxu el la levataj sanktajxoj.

13 Sed se filino de pastro farigxis vidvino aux eksedzino kaj sxi ne havas infanojn, kaj sxi revenis en la domon de sia patro, kiel sxi estis en sia juneco, tiam sxi povas mangxi la panon de sia patro; sed neniu laiko devas gxin mangxi.

14 Se iu mangxis sanktajxon per eraro, li aldonu al gxi kvinonon de la valoro kaj redonu al la pastro la sanktajxon.

15 Ili ne malhonoru la sanktajxojn de la Izraelidoj, kiujn ili oferlevas al la Eternulo.

16 Kaj ili ne sxargxu sur sin la kulpon de la krimo, mangxante siajn sanktajxojn; cxar Mi estas la Eternulo, kiu ilin sanktigas.

17 Kaj la Eternulo ekparolis al Moseo, dirante:

18 Parolu al Aaron kaj al liaj filoj kaj al cxiuj Izraelidoj, kaj diru al ili:Se iu el la domo de Izrael aux el la fremduloj inter Izrael alportas sian oferon, cxu gxi estas promesitajxo aux cxu gxi estas ofero memvola, kiun ili alportas al la Eternulo kiel bruloferon,

19 tiam, por ke vi akiru placxon, gxi devas esti sendifekta, virseksa, el grandaj brutoj, el sxafoj, aux el kaproj.

20 Neniun beston, kiu havas difektajxon, alportu, cxar gxi ne akirigos al vi placxon.

21 Kaj se iu alportas pacoferon al la Eternulo, por plenumi promeson aux memvole, el grandaj aux malgrandaj brutoj, gxi estu sendifekta, por ke gxi placxu; nenia difekto estu sur gxi.

22 Beston blindan aux difektitan aux kriplan aux absceshavan aux aknohavan aux favan ne alportu al la Eternulo; kaj ne donu ilin kiel fajroferon sur la altaron de la Eternulo.

23 Bovon aux sxafon, kiu havas tro longajn aux tro mallongajn membrojn, vi povas alporti kiel oferon memvolan, sed kiel promesita ofero gxi ne akiros placxon.

24 Beston, kiu havas testikon kunpremitan, disbatitan, desxiritan, aux fortrancxitan, ne alportu al la Eternulo, kaj en via lando ne faru tion.

25 Kaj el la manoj de alilandulo ne alportu tiajn kiel panon de via Dio; cxar kriplajxo estas sur ili, difektajxo estas sur ili:ili ne akiros al vi placxon.

26 Kaj la Eternulo ekparolis al Moseo, dirante:

27 Kiam naskigxos bovido aux sxafido aux kaprido, tiam gxi restu dum sep tagoj sub sia patrino, kaj de post la oka tago kaj plue gxi povas akiri placxon kiel fajrofero al la Eternulo.

28 Sed nek bovon, nek sxafon bucxu kun gxia ido en unu tago.

29 Se vi alportas dankoferon al la Eternulo, oferu gxin tiel, ke gxi akiru por vi placxon.

30 En la sama tago oni devas gxin mangxi; ne lasu iom el gxi gxis la mateno:Mi estas la Eternulo.

31 Kaj observu Miajn ordonojn kaj plenumu ilin:Mi estas la Eternulo.

32 Kaj ne malhonoru Mian sanktan nomon, kaj Mi estu sankta inter la Izraelidoj:Mi estas la Eternulo, kiu sanktigas vin,

33 kiu elkondukis vin el la lando Egipta, por esti por vi Dio. Mi estas la Eternulo.

9163. 'And it dies or is broken' means loss or harm. This is clear from the meaning of 'dying' as being wiped out and lost; and from the meaning of 'being broken' as suffering harm. In the Word 'a break' and 'being broken' mean being dispersed or else suffering harm. This has its origin in the spiritual world, where all things without exception are joined together, all according to the way in which God's truth coming from the Lord is received by them, and so according to the way in which the order imposed on every single thing by God's truth emanating from the Lord is received by them, 8700, 8988. Therefore also the truths residing with a person are connected to one another according to the way in which they are received within good; and the truths interconnected in this way make a single whole. Consequently when these as a whole are broken, the truths together with the good are dispersed; but when they are partially broken, the truths that are there are dispersed. For when they exist in connection with one another, they depend on one another for their existence, but when they are broken they pull away from one another. So it is that in the Word 'being broken' means being dispersed, as is also meant by 'being divided', 9093, or else it means suffering harm.

[2] That is to say, being dispersed is meant when the whole is broken, but suffering harm when part is broken, as is evident from the following places in the Word: In Isaiah,

Many among them will trip, and fall, and be broken. Isaiah 8:15; 28:13.

'Tripping' stands for stumbling and as a consequence sliding from truths into falsities; 'falling and being broken' stands for being dispersed, dispersed as a whole in this instance. In Ezekiel,

Behold, I am against Pharaoh king of Egypt, I will break [both] his arms, the strong one and the broken one. Ezekiel 30:22.

'Pharaoh king of Egypt' stands for known facts which pervert and destroy the truths and forms of the good of faith, 6651, 6679, 6683, 6692. 'Breaking the arms' stands for dispersing the powerfulness of those facts and so dispersing the facts themselves, 4932. 'The strong one and the broken one' stands for those which have not suffered harm and offer resistance, and those which have suffered harm and offer no resistance.

[3] In Luke,

It is written, The stone which the builders rejected has become the head of the corner. Whoever falls onto that stone will be broken; but on whomever it falls, it will grind [him] to powder. Luke 20:17-18.

'The stone' stands for the Lord in respect of Divine Truth, 6426. Since 'being broken' refers to truths that come from Him, it stands for being dispersed and so destroyed. This happens to the things that compose spiritual life, as well as to the truths, and occurs among people who deny the Lord and refuse to accept truths that come from Him, these people being the ones who reject the stone. In Jeremiah,

Bring on them the day of evil, break [them] with doubled breaking. Jeremiah 17:18.

'Breaking with doubled breaking' stands for destroying completely.

[4] In Isaiah,

I have settled myself down until the morning. Like a lion, so He breaks all my bones. From day until night You will make an end of me. Isaiah 38:13.

In Jeremiah,

He has aged my flesh and my skin, and broken my bones. Lamentations 3:4.

In Moses,

You shall not take out of the house any of the flesh of the Passover lamb, nor break a bone of it. Exodus 12:46.

'Breaking the bones' means destroying the truths from God that exist on the last and lowest level of order, truths on which more internal truths and forms of good rest and by means of which these are supported. If the truths on the lowest level are destroyed, the ones built on top of them also fall to the ground. Truths on the lowest level are truths belonging to the literal sense of the Word, which hold within themselves truths belonging to the internal sense and which those in the internal sense rest on like pillars on their plinths. For the meaning of 'bones' as truths, see 3812, 6592, 8005. All this shows what was represented and meant by the following things said about the Lord in John,

They came to Jesus. When they saw that He was dead they did not break His legs. This was done in order that the Scripture might be fulfilled, You shall not break a bone of His. John 19:33, 36.

The reason for this was that He was Divine Truth itself both on the first and on the last levels of order.

[5] In Isaiah,

Jehovah will bind up the break of His people, 1 and will heal the wound of their stroke. Isaiah 30:26.

In Jeremiah,

From the prophet even to the priest, everyone deals falsely; 2 and they heal what is broken in My people with something that is no good. 3 Jeremiah 6:13-14.

In the same prophet,

Because the daughter of My people is broken 4 I am broken, I am dressed in black. Jeremiah 8:21.

In David,

You have made the earth tremble; You have broken it to pieces; heal its breaks. Psalms 60:2.

In Zechariah,

I will raise up a shepherd in the land; he will not heal one that is broken, he will not support one that is standing. Zechariah 11:16.

In Nahum,

There is no scar for your break; 5 your stroke is severe. 6 Nahum 3:19.

In these places 'break' means harm done to the truths and forms of the good of faith, thus harm done to the Church, while 'healing' means making amends and undertaking restoration. Something similar was meant by the regulation which prevented a man with a broken foot or a broken hand from approaching and offering the bread of God, Leviticus 21:17, 19, and by that which prevented what was broken from being offered to Jehovah on the altar, Leviticus 22:22, for 'what was broken' meant that which had been destroyed. That which has suffered harm is also meant by 'a breach', as in Isaiah,

You saw that the breaches of the city 7 of David were very many. Isaiah 22:9.

And in Amos,

On that day I will raise up the tent of David that is fallen down, and I will close up its breaches; I will restore its destroyed places, and I will build them as in the days of old. Amos 9:11.

'The city 7 of David' and 'the tent of David' stand for the Lord's Church, for 'David' in the prophetical part of the Word is the Lord, 1888.
