Leviticus 15

Studie

   

1 Ja Issand rääkis Moosese ja Aaroniga, öeldes:

2 'Rääkige Iisraeli lastega ja öelge neile: Iga mees, kellel on ihust voolus, on selle vooluse tõttu roojane.

3 Ja tema roojasus vooluse pärast on niisugune: ta ihu kas eritab voolust või on ta ihu voolusest ummuksis - selles on tema roojasus.

4 Iga ase, millel magab see, kellel on voolus, saab roojaseks, ja iga ese, millel ta istub, saab ka roojaseks.

5 Igaüks, kes puudutab tema aset, peab pesema oma riided ja loputama ennast veega ning olema õhtuni roojane.

6 Ja kes istub esemel, millel on istunud see, kellel on voolus, peab pesema oma riided ja loputama ennast veega ning olema õhtuni roojane.

7 Ja kes puudutab selle ihu, kellel on voolus, see peab pesema oma riided ja loputama ennast veega ning olema õhtuni roojane.

8 Ja kui see, kellel on voolus, sülitab selle peale, kes on puhas, siis peab viimane pesema oma riided ja loputama ennast veega ning olema õhtuni roojane.

9 Ja iga sadul, millega sõidab see, kellel on voolus, saab roojaseks.

10 Ja igaüks, kes puudutab midagi, mis on olnud tema all, on õhtuni roojane, ja kes kannab neid asju, peab pesema oma riided ja loputama ennast veega ning olema õhtuni roojane.

11 Ja igaüks, keda puudutab see, kellel on voolus, ilma et oleks oma käsi veega loputanud, peab pesema oma riided ja loputama ennast veega ning olema õhtuni roojane.

12 Ja saviastja, mida puudutab see, kellel on voolus, tuleb puruks lüüa; aga kõiki puuriistu tuleb veega loputada.

13 Ja kui see, kellel on voolus, saab puhtaks oma voolusest, siis ta lugegu enesele puhastamiseks seitse päeva, pesku oma riided ja loputagu ihu voolava veega, siis ta on puhas!

14 Kaheksandal päeval võtku ta enesele kaks turteltuvi või kaks muud tuvi ja tulgu Issanda ette kogudusetelgi ukse juurde ning andku need preestrile!

15 Ja preester ohverdagu need: üks patuohvriks ja teine põletusohvriks, ja preester toimetagu tema eest lepitust Issanda ees ta vooluse pärast!

16 Ja kui mõnel mehel on olnud seemnevoolus, siis ta loputagu kogu oma ihu veega; ta on õhtuni roojane!

17 Kõik riided ja kõik nahad, mille peal seemnevoolus on aset leidnud, pestagu veega ja need olgu õhtuni roojased!

18 Ja kui mees magab oma seemnega naise juures, siis nad loputagu endid veega ja nad on õhtuni roojased!

19 Ja kui naisel on voolus, ta ihust voolab verd, siis ta ei ole puhas seitse päeva ja igaüks, kes teda puudutab, on õhtuni roojane.

20 Ja kõik, mille peal ta magab oma ebapuhtuse ajal, on roojane, samuti on roojane kõik, mille peal ta istub.

21 Ja igaüks, kes puudutab tema aset, peab pesema oma riided ja loputama ennast veega ning olema õhtuni roojane.

22 Ja igaüks, kes puudutab mõnda eset, millel naine on istunud, peab pesema oma riided ja loputama ennast veega ning olema õhtuni roojane!

23 Ja kui midagi on aseme peal või eseme peal, millel ta on istunud, ja keegi puudutab seda, siis ta on õhtuni roojane.

24 Ja kui mees ometi magab tema juures ja ta kuuverd jääb mehe külge, siis on viimane seitse päeva roojane ja iga ase, millel ta magab, on ka roojane.

25 Ja kui mõne naise verevoolus kestab pikemat aega, ilma et see oleks kuuveri, või kui see kestab üle ta kuuvere päevade, siis ta on roojane oma ebapuhta vooluse kestusel nagu kuuvere ajalgi.

26 Iga ase, millel ta magab kogu oma vooluse aja, on samasugune nagu ta ase kuuvere ajal, ja kõik esemed, millel ta istub, saavad roojaseks, nagu ta kuuvere roojasuse ajal.

27 Igaüks, kes neid puudutab, saab roojaseks; ta pesku oma riided ja loputagu ennast veega; ta on õhtuni roojane!

28 Aga kui naine saab puhtaks oma voolusest, siis ta lugegu seitse päeva ja pärast seda on ta puhas!

29 Ja kaheksandal päeval võtku ta enesele kaks turteltuvi või kaks muud tuvi ja viigu need preestrile kogudusetelgi ukse juurde!

30 Ja preester ohverdagu üks neist patuohvriks ja teine põletusohvriks ning preester toimetagu tema eest lepitust Issanda ees ta ebapuhta vooluse pärast!

31 Nõnda te peate Iisraeli lapsed hoidma eemal ebapuhtusest, et nad ei sureks oma roojasusest, roojastades minu eluaset, mis on teie keskel!

32 See on seadus selle kohta, kellel on mingi voolus ja kellel seeme voolab, tehes teda roojaseks,

33 ja selle kohta, kellel on kuuverejooks ja kellel on muu voolus, olgu meeste- või naisterahvas, ja mehe kohta, kes magab naise juures, kui see ei ole puhas.'

Apocalypse Explained # 476

476. And make their robes white in the blood of the Lamb.- This signifies the implantation of Divine Truth from the Lord, as is evident from the signification of making their robes white, as denoting to put off falsities and to put on truths, for white, and to whiten are said in reference to truths, which are signified by robes. That white, and to whiten, are said in reference to truths, may be seen above (n. 196); and that robes signify truths in general may also be seen above (n. 395). It is said that they made their robes white, because the garments of those who are in falsities in the spiritual world appear to be dusky, and also spotted, and the garments of those who are in temptations appear squalid; but as soon as they come out of temptations, because they are then imbued with Divine Truths, they appear to be clad in garments white and shining, without blemishes, as mentioned just above; therefore by making their robes white is signified that they had put off falsities and put on truths. The blood of the Lamb, signifies the Divine Truth proceeding from the Lord; see above (n. 329); and because falsities are shaken off in temptations, and truths implanted, therefore, in general, by making their robes white in the blood of the Lamb, is signified the implantation of Divine Truth from the Lord. In the sense of the letter of the Word, the blood of the Lamb means the passion of the cross, but in the internal or spiritual sense it means the Divine Truth proceeding from the Lord; for by means of this, man is purified from falsities and evils, that is, his garments are made white.

The passion of the cross was the last temptation of the Lord, through which He completely subjugated the hells, and glorified His Human; and having fulfilled and completed these things, the Lord sent the Paraclete (Paracletum), the Spirit of Truth, by which is meant the Divine Truth proceeding from His glorified Human, as the Lord Himself teaches in John (7:39), and elsewhere. Man then is reformed and regenerated by the Lord, and saved by means of the Divine Truth when received, but not by the shedding of blood upon the cross. On this subject more may be seen in the Doctrine of the New Jerusalem 293, 294); and in the passages cited therein from the Arcana Coelestia. The same is also evident from this fact, that the garments of the angels appear to shine with a white and bright appearance, not from faith and from thought concerning the blood of the Lord [shed] upon the cross, but from the Divine Truth from the Lord with the angels. For, as stated above, all their garments accord with the truths which they have, neither is any angel allowed to think of the passion of the Lord, but of His glorification, and of the reception of the Divine from Him.

John 13

Studie

   

1 Now before the feast of the Passover, Jesus, knowing that his time had come that he would depart from this world to the Father, having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end.

2 During supper, the devil having already put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray him,

3 Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he came forth from God, and was going to God,

4 arose from supper, and laid aside his outer garments. He took a towel, and wrapped a towel around his waist.

5 Then he poured water into the basin, and began to wash the disciples' feet, and to wipe them with the towel that was wrapped around him.

6 Then he came to Simon Peter. He said to him, "Lord, do you wash my feet?"

7 Jesus answered him, "You don't know what I am doing now, but you will understand later."

8 Peter said to him, "You will never wash my feet!" Jesus answered him, "If I don't wash you, you have no part with me."

9 Simon Peter said to him, "Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head!"

10 Jesus said to him, "Someone who has bathed only needs to have his feet washed, but is completely clean. You are clean, but not all of you."

11 For he knew him who would betray him, therefore he said, "You are not all clean."

12 So when he had washed their feet, put his outer garment back on, and sat down again, he said to them, "Do you know what I have done to you?

13 You call me, 'Teacher' and 'Lord.' You say so correctly, for so I am.

14 If I then, the Lord and the Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another's feet.

15 For I have given you an example, that you also should do as I have done to you.

16 Most certainly I tell you, a servant is not greater than his lord, neither one who is sent greater than he who sent him.

17 If you know these things, blessed are you if you do them.

18 I don't speak concerning all of you. I know whom I have chosen. But that the Scripture may be fulfilled, 'He who eats bread with me has lifted up his heel against me.'

19 From now on, I tell you before it happens, that when it happens, you may believe that I am he.

20 Most certainly I tell you, he who receives whomever I send, receives me; and he who receives me, receives him who sent me."

21 When Jesus had said this, he was troubled in spirit, and testified, "Most certainly I tell you that one of you will betray me."

22 The disciples looked at one another, perplexed about whom he spoke.

23 One of his disciples, whom Jesus loved, was at the table, leaning against Jesus' breast.

24 Simon Peter therefore beckoned to him, and said to him, "Tell us who it is of whom he speaks."

25 He, leaning back, as he was, on Jesus' breast, asked him, "Lord, who is it?"

26 Jesus therefore answered, "It is he to whom I will give this piece of bread when I have dipped it." So when he had dipped the piece of bread, he gave it to Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot.

27 After the piece of bread, then Satan entered into him. Then Jesus said to him, "What you do, do quickly."

28 Now no man at the table knew why he said this to him.

29 For some thought, because Judas had the money box, that Jesus said to him, "Buy what things we need for the feast," or that he should give something to the poor.

30 Therefore, having received that morsel, he went out immediately. It was night.

31 When he had gone out, Jesus said, "Now the Son of Man has been glorified, and God has been glorified in him.

32 If God has been glorified in him, God will also glorify him in himself, and he will glorify him immediately.

33 Little children, I will be with you a little while longer. You will seek me, and as I said to the Jews, 'Where I am going, you can't come,' so now I tell you.

34 A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, just like I have loved you; that you also love one another.

35 By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another."

36 Simon Peter said to him, "Lord, where are you going?" Jesus answered, "where I am going, you can't follow now, but you will follow afterwards."

37 Peter said to him, "Lord, why can't I follow you now? I will lay down my life for you."

38 Jesus answered him, "Will you lay down your life for me? Most certainly I tell you, the rooster won't crow until you have denied me three times.
