Exodus 30

Studie

   

1 Tee suitsutusaltar suitsutusohvri toomiseks; tee see akaatsiapuust!

2 See olgu küünar pikk ja küünar lai, neljanurgeline ja kaks küünart kõrge; selle sarved olgu sellega ühest tükist!

3 Karda see puhta kullaga, selle pealis, küljed ümberringi ja sarved; ja tee sellele kuldäär ümber!

4 Tee kaks kuldrõngast selle ääre alla kahele poole; tee need kumbagi külge; need olgu asemeiks kangidele, millega seda kantakse!

5 Tee kangid akaatsiapuust ja karda need kullaga!

6 Pane see tunnistuslaeka ees oleva eesriide ette, kohastikku tunnistuslaeka peal oleva lepituskaanega, kus ma ennast sulle ilmutan!

7 Ja Aaron põletagu selle peal healõhnalist suitsutusrohtu; ta põletagu seda igal hommikul, kui ta lampe korraldab!

8 Ja kui Aaron õhtul lampe üles seab, siis ta põletagu nõndasamuti; see olgu teie tulevastele põlvedele alaline suitsutusohver Issanda palge ees!

9 Ärge ohverdage selle peal võõrast suitsutusrohtu ega põletus- või roaohvrit; selle peale ärge valage ka joogiohvrit!

10 Ja kord aastas toimetagu Aaron selle sarvede peal lepitust: põlvest põlve toimetagu ta kord aastas selle lepitust patu-lepitusohvri verega! See on väga püha Issandale.'

11 Ja Issand rääkis Moosesega, öeldes:

12 'Kui sa arvestad Iisraeli laste päid, neid, kes ära loetakse, siis andku iga mees oma hinge eest lunaraha Issandale, et neid ei tabaks nuhtlus, kui nad ära loetakse!

13 Igaüks, kes astub äraloetavate hulka, andku pool seeklit püha seekli järgi, kakskümmend geera seeklis; tõstelõiv Issandale on pool seeklit.

14 Igaüks, kes astub äraloetavate hulka, kakskümmend aastat vana ja üle selle, peab andma Issandale tõstelõivu!

15 Rikas ärgu andku rohkem ja kehv ärgu andku vähem kui pool seeklit, kui te annate Issandale tõstelõivu lepituseks oma hingede eest!

16 Võta Iisraeli lastelt lepitusraha ja kasuta seda kogudusetelgi teenistuseks; see meenutagu Issanda ees Iisraeli lapsi, et saaksite lepitust oma hingedele!'

17 Ja Issand rääkis Moosesega, öeldes:

18 'Tee pesemise jaoks vasknõu ja selle vaskjalg; pane see kogudusetelgi ja altari vahele ja vala sellesse vett!

19 Aaron ja tema pojad pesku selles oma käsi ja jalgu!

20 Kui nad lähevad kogudusetelki, siis nad peavad endid veega pesema, et nad ei sureks; nõndasamuti, kui nad astuvad teenistuseks altari juurde, et süüdata tuleohvrit Issandale.

21 Nad peavad pesema oma käsi ja jalgu, et nad ei sureks. See olgu neile igaveseks seadluseks, temale ja ta soole põlvest põlve!'

22 Ja Issand rääkis Moosesega, öeldes:

23 'Ja sina võta enesele parimaid palsameid: viissada seeklit sula mürri, ja pool osa sellest, kakssada viiskümmend seeklit, healõhnalist kaneeli, ja kakssada viiskümmend seeklit lõhnavat kalmust,

24 ja viissada seeklit kassiat püha seekli järgi, ja kolm toopi oliiviõli,

25 ja valmista sellest püha võideõli, rohusegajate viisil segatud salvi; see olgu pühaks võideõliks!

26 Võia sellega kogudusetelki ja tunnistuslaegast,

27 lauda ja kõiki selle riistu, lambijalga ja selle riistu, suitsutusaltarit,

28 põletusohvri altarit ja kõiki selle riistu, pesemisnõu ja selle jalga!

29 Ja pühitse neid, et need oleksid väga pühad: igaüks, kes neid puudutab, saab pühaks.

30 Ja võia Aaronit ja tema poegi ja pühitse nad mulle preestriteks!

31 Ja räägi Iisraeli lastega ning ütle: See olgu teile põlvest põlve minu püha võideõli!

32 Tavalise inimese ihu peale ei tohi seda valada ja niisugust segu ei tohi te järele teha: see on püha ja see olgu püha ka teile!

33 Igaüks, kes valmistab niisugust võiet ja annab seda mõnele võõrale, kaotatagu oma rahva seast!'

34 Ja Issand ütles Moosesele: 'Võta enesele healõhnalisi aineid: lõhnavat vaiku, teokarpe ja galbanit - healõhnalisi aineid ja puhast viirukit võrdsetes osades -

35 ja valmista neist rohusegajate viisil suitsutusrohi: soolane, puhas, püha!

36 Osa sellest hõõru peeneks ja pane tunnistuslaeka ette kogudusetelgis, sinna, kus ma ennast sulle ilmutan; see olgu teile kõige püham!

37 Suitsutusrohtu, mida sa teed selle segu kohaselt, ei tohi te endile teha: Issandale kuuluvana olgu see sulle püha!

38 Igaüks, kes teeb midagi niisugust, et seda mõnuga nautida, kaotatagu oma rahva seast!'

10203. 'Incense shall be continual before Jehovah' means in all worship springing from love received from the Lord. This is clear from the meaning of 'incense' as worship springing from love, dealt with in 9475; from the meaning of 'continual' as all and within all, dealt with in 10133; and from the meaning of 'before Jehovah' as from the Lord, dealt with in 10146. The expression 'worship springing from love received from the Lord' is used because both faith and love, the essential elements of worship, come from the Lord, and also the raising up to the Lord of everything of worship is done by Him. The person who has no knowledge of the arcana of heaven supposes that worship comes from himself since he thinks about and pays homage to the Lord. But worship which comes from a person himself is not worship; only that which comes from the Lord with a person is such. For love and faith compose worship, and since love and faith come from the Lord worship too comes from Him. Nor is a person able to raise anything from himself up to heaven; it is the Lord who raises it. Within the person there is solely the capacity for this to happen, which he is endowed with when being regenerated, 6148; but all the motive force and energy of that capacity come from the Lord.

Life itself comes from the Lord, and men and angels are recipient forms, see 1954, 2021, 2536, 2706, 3001, 3318, 3484, 3741-3743, 4151, 4249, 4318-4320, 4417, 4523, 4524, 4882, 5847, 5986, 6325, 6467, 6468, 6470, 6472, 6479, 9338.

Arcana Coelestia # 4417

4417. I once held a conversation with spirits about life, to the effect that no one has any life at all of himself but receives it from the Lord, even though he does seem to live of himself; compare 4320. The conversation centred first around what life is - that it consists in having the mental powers of understanding and will; and as understanding is altogether a matter of comprehending what is true and will is altogether a matter of desiring what is good, 4409, it is in an intelligent understanding of what is true and in a will desiring what is good that life consists. But some spirits then spoke who were reasoners; for spirits exist who must be called reasoners because they always reason whether something is really true, and who for the most part dwell in obscurity so far as all truth is concerned. Some spirits, as I say, then spoke, who declared that those without any intelligent understanding of truth or any will desiring what is good do nevertheless have life. Indeed such people, they said, believe that they have life more truly than all others. I was led to say in reply to them that the life of the evil does indeed look to them like life, but this is the life that is called spiritual death. I also told them that they could recognize this from the consideration that if understanding truth and desiring good constitute life from the Divine, then understanding falsity and desiring evil cannot constitute life since evils and falsities are the opposites of life itself.

[2] To convince them of this they were shown what their own life was like. When presented visually it was seen as smoke-filled light emitted from a charcoal fire. While dwelling in that inferior light they cannot do other than suppose that the life of their thought and of their will is the only life there is, all the more so from the fact that the light of the understanding of truth, which is the light of life itself, cannot be seen by them at all. For as soon as they enter that light their own inferior light becomes darkened, so much so that they cannot see anything distinctly, and so cannot perceive anything either. They were also shown what their state of life was like at that time by the removal of the delight they derived from falsity, which removal is effected in the next life by separating them from the spirits in whose community they dwell. Once this was done, they appeared with pallid faces, like those of corpses, so that one might have called them death masks. Regarding the life of animals however, this will in the Lord's Divine mercy be dealt with as a separate subject.
