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 # 79

/ 1232  
  

79. And he laid his right hand upon me. That this signifies life from Him, is evident from the signification of right hand, when said of the Lord, as being life from Him (concerning this see above, n. 72). The reason why this signifies life from the Lord, is, that it follows immediately after the words, "I fell at his feet as dead." And, moreover, by touching with the hand, is signified to communicate and transfer to another that which belongs to oneself, and also to receive from another and to communicate and transfer to another what belongs to oneself, when said of the Lord, as in this passage, denotes life, such as is communicated to those who are in a state of enlightenment, and see and hear such things as are in heaven. This also was the case with John; for he was in such a state of enlightenment when he saw and heard the things described in the Apocalypse.

[2] The reason why to touch with the hand denotes to communicate, and to transfer to another, is, because all the power of man is transferred from the body into the hands; therefore, what the mind wills that the body should do, the arms and hands perform accordingly. Hence it is that by arms and hands in the Word is signified power (as may be seen, Arcana Coelestia 878, 3091, 4931-4937. 7673, 10019); this power, however, is natural power, and communication thereby is the exertion of the forces of the body; but spiritual power is to will the good of another, and, as much as possible, to be willing to transfer to another what belongs to oneself. This power is signified by hand in the spiritual sense, and its communication and translation by touching with the hand.

From these considerations it is evident that, by the Lord, who is there called the Son of man, laying His right hand upon John, when he lay as dead, is signified, that He communicated and transferred to him life from Himself (concerning which, see above).

[3] To touch, and to touch with the hand, has a similar signification in many passages in the Word, as in the following. In Daniel:

The Lord, who there appeared to him as a man clothed in linen, whose aspect was as the appearance of lightning, and His eyes as torches of fire, and His feet as the brightness of polished brass, touched him; restored him to his station; set him upon his knees; touched his lips, and opened his mouth; and again touched him, and strengthened him (10:4 to the end).

In Jeremiah:

"Jehovah put forth his hand and touched my mouth, and said, I give my words into thy mouth" (1:9).

And in Matthew:

Jesus put forth His and to the leper "and touched him, saying, I will, be thou clean. And immediately his leprosy was cleansed" (8:3).

In the same:

Jesus saw Peter's wife's mother sick of a fever "and he touched her hand, and the fever left her" (8:14, 15).

In the same:

Jesus touched the eyes of two blind men and their eyes were opened (9:29).

In the same:

"While Peter was speaking, behold a bright cloud overshadowed the disciples, and behold a voice out of the cloud which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him. And when the disciples heard it, they fell upon their face, and were sore afraid. Then Jesus came near and touched them, and said, Arise, be not afraid" (17:5-7).

In Luke:

Jesus came and touched the bier of the dead man, and said, "Young man, I say unto thee, Arise. Then he that was dead sat up, and began to speak" (7:14, 15).

In the same:

Jesus touched the ear of the deaf man, and healed him (22:51).

In Mark:

"They brought young children to him, that he should touch them. And he took them up in his arms, put his hands upon them, and blessed them" (10:13, 16).

In the same:

They brought unto Jesus those that were sick "that they might touch the hem of his garment; and as many as touched were made whole" (Matthew 14:35, 36).

In Luke:

"A woman having an issue of blood, touched the border of Jesus' garment; and immediately her issue of blood stanched. Jesus said, Some one hath touched me, for I perceive that virtue is gone out of me" (8:43, 44, 46).

[4] Because by the touching and laying on of hands, is signified to communicate and transfer to another what is one's own, therefore from ancient times it has been customary in the churches to lay hands upon the heads of those who were inaugurated and blessed, as Moses was commanded to do in the case of Joshua (Numbers 27:18-23; Deuteronomy 34:9). Since all things among the sons of Israel were representative and significative of spiritual things, so also was the touch; therefore those were sanctified who touched what was holy, and those were polluted who touched what was unclean, for the touch signified communication and transference from one to another, and reception from one by another; as is evident from the following passages in Moses: whosoever shall touch the tent of the assembly, the ark of the testimony, the table and all its vessels, the lampstand and its vessels, the altar of incense, the altar of burnt offering and all its vessels, and the laver and its foot, shall be holy (Exodus 30:26-29). Whatsoever touched the altar should be holy (Exodus 29:37). Every thing which touched the remainder of the meat-offering, and the remainder of the flesh from the sacrifices, should be holy (Leviticus 6:11-20).

"Whosoever touched a dead body, and purified not himself, defiled the tabernacle of Jehovah; therefore that soul should be cut off from Israel. Whosoever touched one that was slain with a sword in the open fields, or a bone of a man, or a grave, should be unclean seven days. He that toucheth the waters of separation, shall be unclean until even. Whatsoever the unclean person toucheth shall be unclean until even" (Numbers 19:11, 13, 16, 21, 22).

He who toucheth unclean beasts, and unclean creeping things, shall be unclean; everything upon which they shall fall shall be unclean, whether a vessel of wood, raiment, water, an earthen vessel, food, drink, an oven, except a fountain, pit, a receptacle of waters, shall be unclean (Leviticus 11:31-36). Besides other places, as Leviticus 5:2, 3; 7:21; 11:37, 38; 15:1 to the end; 22:4; Numbers 16:26; Isaiah 52:11; Lamentations 4:14, 15; Hosea 4:2, 3; Haggai 2:12, 13, 14.
