Mooseksen kirja 5

1 Jos joku sielu rikkoo, niin että hän kuulee jonkun kiroilevan, ja hän on sen todistaja, eli on sen nähnyt taikka tietänyt, ja ei ilmoita siitä, hän on vikapää vääryyteen.

2 Eli jos joku sielu rupee johonkuhun saastaiseen kappaleeseen, taikka saastaisen metsän eläimen raatoon, eli saastaisen karjan raatoon eli saastaisen madon raatoon, ja se olis hänelle tietämätöin: hän on saastainen ja vikapää.

3 Eli jos hän rupee saastaiseen ihmiseen, millä ikänänsä saastaisuudella ihminen taitaa saastaiseksi tulla, tietämätä, ja sen sitte ymmärtää, se on vikapää.

4 Eli jos joku sielu vannoo, niin että hänen suustansa käy ajattelemata pahoin eli hyvin tehdä, kaikki kuin ihminen vannoo huomaitsemata, ja sen sitte ymmärtää: hän on vikapää yhteen näistä.

5 Koska hän on vikapää johonkuhun näistä, ja tunnustaa, että hän siinä rikkonut on:

6 Niin pitää hänen tämän rikoksensa vian edestä, kuin hän rikkonut on, tuoman laumasta Herralle uuhen eli vuohen rikosuhriksi: niin pitää papin sovittaman hänen rikoksensa.

7 Jollei hänellä ole lammasta, niin tuokaan Herralle rikoksensa edestä, jolla hän rikkonut on, kaksi mettistä eli kaksi kyhkyläisen poikaa: yhden rikosuhriksi, ja toisen polttouhriksi.

8 Ja viekään ne papille: hänen pitää sen ensimäisen uhraaman rikosuhriksi ja vääntämän sen niskat ja ei kuitenkaan päätä erinänsä repäisemän,

9 Ja pitää priiskottaman alttarin seinän rikosuhrin verellä, ja antaman sen veren, joka jää, vuotaa alttarin pohjaan. Se on rikosuhri.

10 Toisen pitää hänen uhraaman polttouhriksi tavan jälkeen. Ja niin pitää papin sovittaman hänen rikoksensa, jolla hän rikkonut on, ja se annetaan hänelle anteeksi.

11 Jollei hänelle ole kahta mettistä eli kahta kyhkyläisen poikaa, niin tuokaan uhrinsa, rikoksensa edestä, kymmenennen osan ephaa sämpyläjauhoja rikosuhriksi. Mutta ei hänen pidä öljyä sen päälle paneman, eikä pyhää savua; sillä se on rikosuhri.

12 Ja hänen pitää sen viemän papille, ja papin pitää siitä ottaman pivon täyden muistoksi, ja polttaman sen alttarilla Herralle tuliuhriksi: tämä on rikosuhri.

13 Ja papin pitää niin sovittaman hänelle hänen rikoksensa, jolla hän rikkonut on, ja se annetaan anteeksi hänelle. Ja sen pitää oleman papin oman niinkuin ruokauhrinkin.

14 Ja Herra puhui Mosekselle, sanoen:

15 Jos joku sielu kovasti rikkoo ja erehdyksestä syntiä tekee jossakussa joka Herralle pyhitetty on, hänen pitää Herralle tuoman vikauhrin, virheettömän oinaan laumasta, sinun arvios jälkeen hopiapainoon, pyhän siklin jälkee, vikauhriksi.

16 Siihen myös, mitä hän on rikkonut pyhitetyssä, pitää hänen sen antaman jällensä, ja pitää sen tykö antaman viidennen osan, ja antaman sen papille: ja papin pitää sovittaman hänen vikauhrin oinaalla, niin se hänelle annetaan anteeksi.

17 Ja jos joku sielu rikkoo ja tekee vastoin jotakuta Herran käskyä, jota ei hänen pitänyt tekemän, ja ei sitä tietänyt: hän on vikapää vääryyteen,

18 Ja pitää tuoman papille virheettömän oinaan laumasta, sinun arvios jälkeen vikauhriksi: ja papin pitää sovittaman hänelle hänen tietämättömyytensä, kun hän tehnyt on tietämätä, niin se hänelle annetaan anteeksi.

19 Se on vikauhri: sillä vikaan hän kaiketikin Herran edessä joutunut on.

9506. And thou shalt make a propitiatory [mercy seat] of pure gold. That this signifies the hearing and reception of all things that belong to worship from the good of love is evident from the signification of “a propitiatory [mercy seat]” as being a cleansing from evils, or the forgiveness of sins, consequently the hearing and reception of all things that belong to worship (of which in what follows); and from the signification of “gold” as being the good of love (see n. 113, 1551-1552, 5658, 6917). That “the propitiatory [mercy seat]” denotes a cleansing from evils and the forgiveness of sins is evident from the passages in the Word where “propitiation” or “expiation” is mentioned.

[2] That it also denotes the reception of all things of worship is because those only are heard who have been propitiated or expiated, that is, cleansed from evils; and their worship alone is received by the Lord; but those are not heard who are in evils, that is, who have not been expiated or propitiated. On this account also Aaron was not allowed to approach the propitiatory [mercy seat] until he had cleansed and expiated himself and the people. That for this reason “the propitiatory [mercy seat]” denotes the hearing and reception of all things of worship is also evident from the fact that Jehovah spoke with Moses over the propitiatory [mercy seat] between the two cherubs. That it is worship from the good of love that is received is because no one is admitted into heaven, thus to the Lord, except one who is in good, namely, in the good of love to the Lord and in the good of charity toward the neighbor (see n. 8516, 8539, 8722, 8772, 9139, 9227, 9230, 9274); consequently no one else is heard, and his worship received. For this reason also cherubs were over the propitiatory [mercy seat]; for by “the cherubs” is signified guard and providence lest the Lord be approached except through the good of love, thus lest any enter into heaven except those who are in good, and also lest those who are in heaven be approached and injured by those who are in hell. From all this it can be seen what was signified by the propitiatory [mercy seat] being upon the ark, and by the cherubs being over the propitiatory [mercy seat]; and further by the propitiatory [mercy seat] and the cherubs being of pure gold; for “gold” signifies the good of love, and “the ark” signifies heaven where the Lord is.

[3] That “the propitiatory [mercy seat]” signifies cleansing from evils, thus the forgiveness of sins, is evident from the passages in the Word where “propitiation” or “expiation” is mentioned; as in David:

O Jehovah, expiate our sins for Thy name’s sake (Psalms 79:9).

He, being merciful, expiated their iniquity (Psalms 78:38).

Thou shalt expiate me with hyssop, and I shall be made clean; Thou shalt wash me, and I shall be made whiter than snow (Psalms 51:7).

Evil shall come upon thee, which thou shalt not know how to avert by prayer; calamity shall fall upon thee, which thou shall not be able to expiate (Isaiah 47:11).

Sing, ye nations, His people; who will avenge the blood of His servants, and will make expiation for His land, for His people (Deuteronomy 32:43).

[4] Expiations were made by means of sacrifices, and after they had been made, we read, “The priest shall expiate him from sin, and he shall be forgiven” (Leviticus 4:26, 31, 35; 5:6, 10, 13, 16, 18; 9:7; 15:15, 30). Expiation was also made by means of silver (Exodus 30:16; Psalms 49:8). Therefore there was a day of expiations before the feast of tabernacles (Leviticus 23:27-32). But be it known that these expiations were not real cleansings from evils, nor forgivenesses of sins, but represented them; for every ritual with the Israelitish and Jewish nation was merely representative of the Lord, of His kingdom and church, and of such things as belong to heaven and the church. (In what manner the representations presented such things before the angels in heaven, see in n. 9229.)

[5] As cleansing from evils and forgiveness of sins were signified by “the propitiatory [mercy seat],” there were also signified by it the hearing and reception of all things that belong to worship; for he who has been cleansed from evils is heard, and his worship is received. This was represented by Jehovah speaking above the propitiatory [mercy seat] with Moses, and commanding what the sons of Israel should do, as is evident from verse 22 of the present chapter, where it is said, “There I will meet with thee, and I will speak with thee from above the propitiatory [mercy seat], from between the two cherubs that are over the ark of the testimony, all that I shall command thee for the sons of Israel.” In like manner in another place: “When Moses spoke with Jehovah, he heard the voice speaking from above the propitiatory [mercy seat] that was upon the ark of the testimony, from between the two cherubs” (Numbers 7:89). That a man would be heard and his worship received after he had been cleansed from evils, was represented by Aaron’s not entering into the holy of holies within the veil before the propitiatory [mercy seat] until he had first expiated himself and the people, which was effected by means of washing, sacrifices, incense, and blood; and it is said, “So shall he expiate the holy place from the uncleannesses of the sons of Israel, and from their transgressions as to all their sins” (Leviticus 16:16); “and that Jehovah would appear there in a cloud” (verse 2). “In a cloud” denotes in Divine truth accommodated to the reception and apprehension of men, such as is the Word in the sense of the letter (n. 4060, 4391, 5922, 6343, 6752, 8106, 8443, 8781).
