Leviticus 5

Studie

   

1 Kui keegi teeb pattu sellega, et ta kuuleb avalikku needmist ja on tunnistajaks, olles seda ise näinud või muidu saanud teada, aga ei teata sellest, siis ta kannab oma patusüüd;

2 või kui keegi puudutab mõnda roojast asja, olgu see roojase metslooma raibe või roojase karilooma raibe või roojase roomaja raibe, ilma et ta oleks sellest teadlik, siis on ta saanud roojaseks ja süüdlaseks;

3 või kui ta puudutab inimese rooja, ükskõik missugust rooja, mis teeb roojaseks, ja ei ole sellest teadlik, aga pärast saab teadlikuks, siis ta jääb süüdlaseks;

4 või kui keegi vannub mõtlematult, suuga lobisedes, kurjaks või heaks, nagu inimene iganes võib mõtlematult vanduda, aga pärast saab teadlikuks ja jääb süüdlaseks mõnes neist asjust:

5 kui ta siis jääb süüdlaseks mõnes neist asjust, siis ta peab tunnistama, millega ta on pattu teinud!

6 Ja ta peab tooma Issandale hüvituseks oma patu pärast, mida ta on teinud, ühe emase looma, utetalle või kitse, patuohvriks; ja preester toimetagu tema eest lepitust ta patu pärast!

7 Aga kui ta jõud ei luba tuua lammastest või kitsedest, siis ta toogu Issandale süüohvriks selle eest, millega ta on pattu teinud, kaks turteltuvi või kaks muud tuvi: üks patuohvriks ja teine põletusohvriks!

8 Ta viigu need preestrile, kes peab esimesena ohverdama patuohvriks määratu: ta näpistagu pea ära kukla tagant, jättes aga küljest eraldamata,

9 ja tilgutagu patuohvri verd altari seina peale; ülejäänud veri aga pigistatagu altari aluse kõrvale; see on patuohver!

10 Siis ta valmistagu teine seatud viisil põletusohvriks! Kui preester nõnda on tema eest lepitust toimetanud ta patu pärast, mida ta on teinud, siis antakse temale andeks.

11 Aga kui ta jõud ei luba kahte turteltuvi või kahte muud tuvi, siis ta toogu ohvrianniks oma patu eest kaks toopi peent jahu patuohvriks; aga ta ärgu valagu selle peale õli ja ärgu pangu sinna viirukit, sest see on patuohver!

12 Ta viigu see preestrile ja preester võtku sellest kamalutäis mälestusohvriks ning süüdaku altaril põlema Issanda tuleohvri peal; see on patuohver!

13 Kui preester on tema eest lepitust teinud ta patu pärast, mida ta mõnes neist asjust on teinud, siis antakse temale andeks. Ja preestrile kuulugu seesama osa mis roaohvristki!'

14 Ja Issand rääkis Moosesega, öeldes:

15 'Kui keegi ei ole hoolas ja kogemata patustab Issanda pühade asjade vastu, siis ta peab enese hüvituseks tooma Issandale ühe veatu jäära oma karjast sinu hindamise kohaselt mõne hõbeseekli väärtuses, püha seekli järgi, kui süüohvri.

16 Ja mis ta pühadest asjadest on kõrvaldanud, selle ta peab tasuma ja lisama sellele veel viiendiku ning andma preestrile! Kui preester tema eest on lepitust toimetanud süüohvri jääraga, siis ta saab andeks.

17 Ja kui keegi patustab ning teeb, ilma et ta sellest teadlik oleks, mõne Issanda käsu vastu midagi, mida ei tohi teha, siis ta jääb ometi süüdlaseks ja kannab oma patusüüd:

18 ta toogu üks veatu jäär oma karjast sinu hindamise kohaselt preestri kätte! Kui preester on tema eest lepitust toimetanud ta eksimuse pärast, mis ta on teinud, ilma et ta ise oleks teadlik olnud, siis antakse temale andeks.

19 See on süüohver: ta on ju ikkagi saanud süüdlaseks Issanda ees.'

9938. 'Which the children of Israel shall sanctify, even in all their gifts of holy things' means acts of worship representative of removal from sins. This is clear from the meaning of 'gifts' - or presents, which among the Israelite and Jewish nation were primarily burnt offerings, sacrifices, and minchahs - as the inner realities of acts of worship; for those realities were represented by these acts. The inner realities of worship are the fruits of love and faith; they are therefore pardonings of sins, that is, removals from them, since faith and love are the means by which the Lord moves sins away. For in the measure that the good of love and faith comes in, or what amounts to the same thing, heaven comes in, sins are removed, that is, hell is removed - the hell within the person as well as the hell outside him. From this it is evident what should be understood by the gifts which they made holy, that is, offered. The gifts were called holy, and giving or offering them was called sanctifying them, because they represented holy realities. For they were offered to expiate people, thus to remove them from their sins, which is accomplished by means of faith in and love to the Lord received from the Lord.

[2] Gifts and presents were said to be made to Jehovah, though Jehovah, that is, the Lord, is not the receiver of gifts or presents, but the giver of them, freely to everyone. Even so, His will is that they should come from a person as though they did so from that person himself, provided the person acknowledges that they do not actually come from him but from the Lord. For the Lord imparts a desire to do good because he loves it, and a desire to speak the truth because he believes it. The actual desire flows in from the Lord, yet appears to be inherent in the person and so to flow from the person. For whatever a person does out of love and desire for it, he does from his life, love being what composes anyone's life. From this it is evident that the things that are called gifts and presents made to the Lord by a person are essentially gifts and presents made to a person by the Lord, and that they are called gifts and presents on account of what they appear to be. All who are wise at heart recognize this appearance, but not so the simple. Yet their gifts and presents are acceptable, so far as they are made in ignorance that has innocence within it. Innocence is the good of love to God, and dwells within ignorance, especially with the wise at heart. Those who are wise at heart know, indeed perceive, that nothing whatever of the wisdom within themselves originates in themselves, but that the all of wisdom is attributable to the Lord, that is, the all of the good of love and the all of the truth of faith are attributable to Him, and that for this reason even with the wise innocence dwells in ignorance. From this it is evident that the acknowledgement of this matter, and especially the perception of it, constitutes the innocence of wisdom.

[3] The gifts offered in the Jewish Church, which were primarily burnt offerings, sacrifices, and minchahs, were also spoken of as offerings made for the expiations of sins; for they were offered for the sake of being pardoned from sins, that is, being removed from them. Those who belonged to that Church also thought that sins were pardoned, indeed completely taken away, by means of these offerings; for it is said of people who have offered them that they will be pardoned, see Leviticus 4:26, 31, 35; 5:6, 10, 13, 16, 18; 6:7; 9:7; 15:15, 30. But they were unaware of the fact that their gifts represented more internal things, thus the kinds of things that are done by a person from love and faith received from the Lord; that these are what expiate, that is, remove sins; and that when they have been removed they appear to have been completely removed or banished, as has been shown above in the present paragraph and the one before it. The worship of that nation was representative, and so was external devoid of anything internal; and it was by means of this worship that heaven was joined to mankind, in those times, see the places referred to in 9320 (end), 9380.
