1 Ja tämä on vikauhrin sääty: se on kaikkein pyhin.

2 Siinä paikassa, kussa polttouhri teurastetaan, pitää myös teurastettaman vikauhri, ja sen veri pitää priiskotettaman alttarille ympärinsä.

3 Ja kaikki sen lihavuus pitää uhrattaman, sekä häntä että lihavuus, joka sisällykset peittää.

4 Ja ne kaksi munaskuuta sen lihavuuden kanssa, joka niiden päällä on lanteissa: ja maksan kalvon munaskuiden kanssa pitää hänen eroittaman.

5 Niin pitää papin sen polttaman alttarilla tuliuhriksi Herralle; se on vikauhri.

6 Jokainen miehenpuoli papeista pitää syömän sen; pyhässä siassa pitää se syötämän; sillä se on kaikkein pyhin.

7 Niinkuin rikosuhri on, niin pitää myös vikauhrin oleman; sillä yhtäläinen pitää heidän molempain säätynsä oleman: ja se pitää sen papin oma oleman, joka sillä sovittaa.

8 Sen papin, joka polttouhrin uhraa, pitää polttouhrin vuota oma oleman, jonka hän uhrannut on.

9 Ja kaikkinainen ruokauhri, joka pätsissä kypsetty on, ja kaikki kuin pannussa eli halstarilla valmistettu on, sen pitää papin oman oleman, joka sen uhraa.

10 Ja kaikkinainen ruokauhri, joka öljyllä sekoitettu, taikka kuiva on, sen pitää kaikkein Aaronin lasten oman oleman, yhden niinkuin toisenkin.

11 Ja tämä on kiitosuhrin sääty, joka Herralle uhrataan:

12 Jos he tahtovat tehdä ylistysuhria, niin heidän pitää uhraaman ylistysuhrin sivussa happamattomia leipiä, sekoitettuja öljyllä, ja happamattomia ohukaisia kyrsiä, voidelluita öljyllä, ja pannussa kypsetyitä sämpyläleipiä sekoitettuja öljyllä.

13 Mutta senkaltaisia uhreja pitää heidän tekemän hapanneen kyrsän päälle, heidän kiitosuhrinsa ylistysuhriksi.

14 Ja yksi kaikista niistä pitää uhrattaman Herralle ylennysuhriksi, ja sen pitää papin oman oleman, joka priiskottaa kiitosuhrin vereen.

15 Ja ylistysuhrin liha hänen kiitosuhrissansa pitää sinä päivänä syötämän, jona se uhrattu on, ja ei mitään pidä tähteeksi jätettämän huomeneksi.

16 Mutta jos joku lupauksesta taikka hyvästä tahdosta uhraa, niin se pitää sinä päivänä syötämän, jona se uhrattu on; mutta jos jotakin tähteeksi jää uhrista toiseksi päiväksi, niin pitää se myös syötämän.

17 Mutta se mikä tähteeksi jää siitä uhrin lihasta, niin se kolmantena päivänä pitää poltettaman tulessa.

18 Mutta jos joku syö kolmantena päivänä siitä uhratusta lihasta, joka on hänen kiitosuhristansa, niin ei ole hän otollinen, joka sen on uhrannut, eikä se hänelle pidä luettaman, mutta se on kauhistus; ja jokainen sielu, joka sitä syö, on vikapää pahaan tekoon.

19 Mutta se liha, joka sattuu johonkuhun saastaisuuteen, ei pidä syötämän, mutta tulessa poltettaman. Joka puhdas on, se pitää syömän lihasta.

20 Ja se sielu, joka syö kiitosuhrin lihasta, siitä mikä Hrran oma on, ja hänen saastaisuutensa on hänen päällänsä, se sielu pitää hävitettämän kansoistansa.

21 Jos joku sielu rupee johonkuhun saastaisuuteen, olkoon se saastainen ihminen eli saastainen eläin eli joku muu saastainen kauhistus, ja syö kiitosuhrin lihasta siitä mikä Herran oma on, se pitää hävitettämän kansoistansa.

22 Ja Herra puhui Mosekselle, sanoen:

23 Puhu Israelin lapsille, sanoen: ei teidän pidä mitään lihavuutta syömän härjistä, lampaista ja vuohista.

24 Raadon eli haaskan lihavuus pantakoon kaikkinaisiin tarpeisiin: mutta ei teidän pidä sitä kaiketikaan syömän.

25 Sillä joka syö lihavuutta siitä eläimestä, joka Herralle tuliuhriksi annettu on, se sielu pitää hävitettämän kansoistansa.

26 Ei teidän pidä myös verta syömän kaikissa teidän asumasioissanne, ei linnuista, eikä eläimistä.

27 Jokainen sielu, joka syö jotain verta, se pitää hävitettämän kansoistansa.

28 Ja Herra puhui Mosekselle, sanoen:

29 Puhu Israelin lapsille, sanoen: se joka Herralle kiitosuhrinsa uhraa, hänen pitää tuoman, mikä Herralle kiitosuhriksi tulee.

30 Mutta hänen pitää sen kantaman kädessänsä Herran tuliuhriksi: rinnan lihavuuden pitää hänen tuoman rinnan kanssa, että ne pitää oleman häälytysuhriksi Herralle.

31 Mutta papin pitää polttaman lihavuuden alttarilla, ja rinnan pitää Aaronin ja hänen poikainsa oleman.

32 Ja oikian lavan pitää teidän antaman papille ylennysuhriksi, teidän kiitosuhristanne.

33 Ja joka uhraa kiitosuhrin verta ja lihavuutta Aaronin pojista, hänen pitää saaman oikian lavan osaksensa.

34 Sillä häälytysrinnan ja ylennyslavan olen minä ottanut Israelin lapsilta heidän kiitosuhristansa, ja olen sen antanut papille Aaronille ja hänen pojillensa ijankaikkiseksi säädyksi, Israelin lapsilta.

35 Tämä on Aaronin ja hänen poikainsa voitelus Herran tuliuhrista, siitä päivästä, jona he Herralle papiksi annettiin.

36 Jotka Herra käski sinä päivänä, jona hän heidän voiteli, annettaa heille Israelin lapsilta, ijankaikkiseksi säädyksi heidän sukukunnissansa.

37 Ja tämä on sääty polttouhrista, ruokauhrista, rikosuhrista, vikauhrista, niin myös täytösuhrista ja kiitosuhrista.

38 Jonka Herra Mosekselle käski Sinain vuorella; sinä päivänä, jona hän käskyn antoi hänelle Israelin lasten tykö, että heidän pitää uhraaman uhrinsa Herralle Sinain korvessa.

10040. As the flesh of the bullock with its skin and dung was to be burnt with fire without the camp, it can be seen that by its “flesh” was not signified the good of love, but the evil of love, according to what was said of its flesh above (n. 10035), and of the camp just above (n. 10038). But that the eating of the flesh of the sacrifice was allowed, as can be seen from the passages which follow, was because that nation, while in worship, was in the external without the internal (see the places cited in n. 9320, 9380); and the external without the internal is not at all holy, because then there is only gesture of the body and speech of the mouth, and the heart and soul are absent. Nevertheless the external without the internal was called holy, because it represented holy internal things. Holy internal things are all things that belong to love and faith from the Lord to the Lord. As that nation was of this character, they were not allowed to eat blood and fat, because by “blood” was signified the Divine truth which is of faith, and by “fat” the Divine good which is of love, both from the Lord (see above, n. 10033); but they were allowed to eat the flesh of the sacrifice, because it signified what is man’s own (n. 10035), and the own of that nation was to worship external things as holy, and to make no account whatever of internal things; which worship, except as a representative that was holy, was idolatrous (n. 4281, 4311). Moreover, representatively “flesh” is nothing else, seeing that its blood represented Divine truth and its fat Divine good (n. 10033), for in this case the flesh represented something without life and soul, which is called dead, as is the external without the internal, according to these words in Moses:

Thou shalt not eat the blood, for the blood is the soul; thou shalt not eat the soul with the flesh (Deuteronomy 12:23).

[2] Worship is nearly similar with the Gentile people of the Catholic religion, as it is called, namely, external without internal; for it is not granted to the common people to know the internal things of the Word, seeing that they are not allowed to read the Word. For this reason also it has of the Lord’s Divine Providence come to pass that in the Holy Supper the bread is given, which is “the flesh;” and not the wine, which is “the blood;” and yet the blood is what gives life to the flesh, as the wine does to the bread. For as bread without wine does not give nourishment to the body, so neither does the good of love, which is signified by “bread” and by “flesh,” without the truth of faith, which is signified by “wine” and by “blood,” give nourishment to the soul. By the Divine Providence of the Lord it has also come to pass that the priest should drink up the wine, because by this is signified the nourishment of the soul by Divine truth without the good of love, which is a holy external without a holy internal. That this has come to pass by the Divine Providence of the Lord they do not know, because they idolatrously adore external things, and thus do not apprehend internal ones; and therefore if they had acted differently they would have profaned holy things just like the Jews. By drinking wine alone, is also signified alone to know Divine truth, and not the common people, except insofar and in such a way as the priests wish, as also is the case there. (That in the Holy Supper the flesh and the bread denote the Divine good of the Lord’s Divine love toward the human race, and the reciprocal love of man to the Lord; and that the blood and the wine denote the Divine truth that proceeds from the Lord’s Divine good, thus the truth of faith from the Lord to the Lord, see n. 3464, 3813, 4211, 4217, 4735, 4976, 6135, 6377, 6789, 7850, 9127) As regards the flesh of the sacrifices, when it was to be brought forth out of the camp, and burned with fire, see Leviticus 4:11-12, 21; and when and by whom it was to be eaten, Leviticus 6:19 end; 7:6, 15-19 19:5-6; Deuteronomy 12:7, 17-18, 27; 26:6-7.

566. That by the “faces of the ground” is signified all that region where the church was, is evident from the signification of “ground;” for in the Word there is an accurate distinction made between “ground” and “earth;” by “ground” is everywhere signified the church, or something belonging to the church; and from this comes the name of “man” or “Adam” which is “ground;” by “earth” in various places is meant where there is no church, or anything belonging to the church, as in the first chapter, where “earth” only is named, because as yet there was no church, or regenerate man. The “ground” is first spoken of in the second chapter, because then there was a church. In like manner it is said here, and in the following chapter (Genesis 7:4, 23), that “every substance should be destroyed from off the faces of the ground” signifying in the region where the church was; but in Genesis 7:3, speaking of a church about to be created, it is said, “to keep seed alive on the faces of the ground.” “Ground” has the same signification everywhere in the Word; as in Isaiah:

Jehovah will have mercy on Jacob, and will yet choose Israel, and will set them upon their own ground, and the peoples shall take them, and shall bring them to their place, and the house of Israel shall inherit them on the ground of Jehovah (Isaiah 14:1-2),

speaking of the church that has been made; whereas where there is no church it is in the same chapter called “earth” (Isaiah 14:9, 12, 16, 20-21, 25-26).

[2] Again:

And the ground of Judah shall be a terror unto Egypt; in that day there shall be five cities in the land of Egypt speaking with the lip of Canaan (Isaiah 19:17-18),

where “ground” signifies the church, and “land” where there is no church. In the same:

The earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard; Jehovah shall visit upon the army of the height in the height, and upon the kings of the ground on the ground (Isaiah 24:20-21).

In Jeremiah:

Because of the ground that is worn, because there was no rain on the earth, the husbandmen were ashamed, they covered their heads, yea, the hind also calved in the field (Jeremiah 14:4-5),

where “earth” is that which contains the “ground” and “ground” that which contains the “field.”

[3] In the same:

He brought the seed of the house of Israel from the northern land, from all the lands whither I have driven them, and they shall dwell on their own ground (Jeremiah 23:8),

where “land” and “lands” are where there are no churches; “ground” where there is a church or true worship. Again: I will give the remains of Jerusalem, them that are left in this land, and them that dwell in the land of Egypt, and I will deliver them to commotion, for evil to all the kings of the earth, and I will send the sword, the famine, and pestilence among them, till they be consumed from off the ground which I gave to them and to their fathers (Jeremiah 24:8-10),

where “ground” signifies doctrine and the worship thence derived; and in like manner in the same Prophet, chapter 5.

[4] In Ezekiel:

I will gather you out of the lands wherein ye have been scattered, and ye shall know that I am Jehovah when I shall bring you again into the ground of Israel, into the land for which I lifted up My hand to give it to your fathers (Ezekiel 20:41-42),

where “ground” signifies internal worship; it is called “land” when there is no internal worship.

In Malachi:

I will rebuke him that consumeth for your sakes, and he shall not corrupt for you the fruit of the ground, nor shall the vine be bereaved for you in the field; and all nations shall call you blessed, because ye shall be a delightsome land (Malachi 3:11-12),

where “land” denotes the containant, and therefore it plainly denotes man, who is called “land” when “ground” denotes the church, or doctrine.

[5] In Moses:

Sing, O ye nations, His people, He will make expiation for His ground, His people (Deuteronomy 32:43),

evidently signifying the Church of the Gentiles, which is called “ground.”

In Isaiah:

Before the child shall know to refuse the evil and choose the good, the ground shall be forsaken, which thou abhorrest in presence of both her kings (Isaiah 7:16),

speaking of the advent of the Lord; that the “ground will be forsaken” denotes the church, or the true doctrine of faith. That “ground” and “field” are so called from being sown with seed, is evident; as in Isaiah:

Then shall he give rain of thy seed wherewith thou shalt sow the ground; the oxen also and the young asses that labor on the ground (Isaiah 30:23-24).

And in Joel:

The field is laid waste, and the ground hath mourned, because the corn is laid waste (Joel 1:10).

Hence then it is evident that “man” who in the Hebrew tongue is called “Adam” from “ground” signifies the church.
