Niin anna nyt minulle anteeksi minun rikokseni vielä tällä erällä, ja rukoilkaat Herraa teidän Jumalaanne, että hän ottais minulta pois vielä tämän kuoleman.

7726. 'You must also give into our hand sacrifices and burnt offerings' means that they must leave alone all the means through which worship must be offered. This is clear from the meaning of 'giving into the hand' as leaving alone, for 'hand' means power, and therefore 'giving into the hand' means surrendering to their power, thus leaving them alone; and from the meaning of 'sacrifices and burnt offerings' as worship in general, thus the whole of worship, dealt with in 923, 6905. The reason why' sacrifices and burnt offerings' means the whole of worship is that sacrifices were the chief means through which Divine worship was offered, as becomes clear from the Books of Moses. For what has been shown already regarding sacrifices, see 922, 923, 1128, 1343, 1823, 2165, 2180, 2187, 2776, 2784, 2805, 2807, 2812, 2818, 2830, 3519, 6905.
