1 "Tee heille näin, pyhittääksesi heidät pappeina palvelemaan minua: Ota mullikka ja kaksi virheetöntä oinasta

2 ja happamatonta leipää ja öljyyn leivottuja happamattomia kakkuja ja öljyllä voideltuja happamattomia ohukaisia; leivo ne lestyistä nisujauhoista.

3 Ja pane ne samaan koriin ja tuo ne korissa, samalla kertaa kuin tuot mullikan ja kaksi oinasta.

4 Tuo sitten Aaron poikinensa ilmestysmajan ovelle ja pese heidät vedellä.

5 Ja ota vaatteet ja pue Aaronin ylle ihokas ja kasukan viitta ja kasukka ja rintakilpi; ja sido hänen ympärilleen kasukan vyö.

6 Pane myös käärelakki hänen päähänsä ja kiinnitä pyhä otsalehti käärelakkiin.

7 Ja ota voiteluöljyä ja vuodata hänen päähänsä ja voitele hänet.

8 Ja tuo hänen poikansa esille ja pue heidän ylleen ihokkaat.

9 Ja vyötä heidät vyöllä, sekä Aaron että hänen poikansa, ja sido päähineet heidän päähänsä, että pappeus olisi heillä ikuisena säätynä. Vihi näin virkaansa Aaron ja hänen poikansa.

10 Ja tuo mullikka ilmestysmajan eteen, ja Aaron poikineen laskekoon kätensä mullikan pään päälle.

11 Ja teurasta sitten mullikka Herran edessä, ilmestysmajan ovella.

12 Ja ota mullikan verta ja sivele sitä sormellasi alttarin sarviin; mutta kaikki muu veri vuodata alttarin juurelle.

13 Ja ota kaikki sisälmyksiä peittävä rasva ja maksanlisäke ja molemmat munuaiset ynnä niiden päällä oleva rasva, ja polta ne alttarilla.

14 Mutta mullikan liha, nahka ja rapa polta tulessa leirin ulkopuolella. Se on syntiuhri.

15 Ja ota toinen oinaista, ja Aaron poikinensa laskekoon kätensä sen oinaan pään päälle.

16 Teurasta sitten oinas ja ota sen veri ja vihmo se alttarille ympärinsä;

17 ja leikkele oinas määräkappaleiksi ja pese sen sisälmykset ja jalat ja pane ne kappaleiden ja pään päälle.

18 Ja polta koko oinas alttarilla. Se on polttouhri Herralle, se on suloisesti tuoksuva uhri Herralle.

19 Ota sitten toinen oinas, ja Aaron poikinensa laskekoon kätensä oinaan pään päälle.

20 Ja teurasta oinas ja ota sen verta ja sivele Aaronin ja hänen poikiensa oikean korvan lehteen ja oikean käden peukaloon ja heidän oikean jalkansa isoonvarpaaseen, mutta vihmo muu veri alttarille ympärinsä.

21 Ja ota alttarilla olevaa verta ja voiteluöljyä ja pirskoita Aaronin ja hänen vaatteidensa päälle, ja samoin hänen poikiensa ja heidän vaatteidensa päälle. Näin hän tulee pyhäkölle pyhitetyksi, sekä hän itse että hänen vaatteensa, ja samoin hänen poikansa ja hänen poikiensa vaatteet.

22 Ota sitten oinaasta rasva ja rasvahäntä ja sisälmyksiä peittävä rasva ja maksanlisäke ja molemmat munuaiset ynnä niiden päällä oleva rasva ja oikea reisi, sillä tämä on vihkiäisoinas.

23 Ja ota pyöreä leipä ja öljyyn leivottu kakku ja ohukainen happamattomien leipien korista, joka on Herran edessä.

24 Ja pane kaikki nämä Aaronin käsiin ja hänen poikiensa käsiin, että toimitettaisiin niiden heilutus Herran edessä.

25 Ota ne sitten heidän käsistään ja polta alttarilla, polttouhrin päällä, suloiseksi tuoksuksi Herran edessä. Se on Herran uhri.

26 Ja ota rintaliha Aaronin vihkiäisoinaasta ja toimituta sen heilutus Herran edessä; ja se olkoon sinun osasi.

27 Näin sinun on pyhitettävä heilutettu rintaliha ja anniksi annettu reisi, se, mitä on heilutettu ja anniksi annettu Aaronin ja hänen poikiensa vihkiäisoinaasta.

28 Ja ne olkoot Aaronin ja hänen poikiensa ikuinen osuus, israelilaisilta saatu, sillä se on anti. Se olkoon israelilaisten anti heidän yhteysuhreistaan, heidän antinsa Herralle.

29 Aaronin pyhät vaatteet tulkoot hänen pojillensa hänen jälkeensä, että heidät niissä voideltaisiin ja vihittäisiin virkaansa.

30 Seitsemänä päivänä on sen hänen pojistaan, joka tulee papiksi hänen sijaansa, puettava ne ylleen, kun hän menee ilmestysmajaan toimittamaan virkaansa pyhäkössä.

31 Ja ota vihkiäisoinas ja keitä sen liha pyhässä paikassa.

32 Ja Aaron poikinensa syököön ilmestysmajan ovella oinaan lihan ynnä leivän, joka on korissa.

33 He syökööt sen, mitä käytettiin heidän sovittamisekseen, kun heidät vihittiin virkaansa ja pyhitettiin, mutta syrjäinen älköön sitä syökö, sillä se on pyhää.

34 Jos jotakin jää tähteeksi vihkiäislihasta tai leivästä seuraavaan aamuun, polta tähteeksi jäänyt tulessa; älköön sitä syötäkö, sillä se on pyhää.

35 Tee näin Aaronille ja hänen pojillensa, aivan niinkuin minä olen sinua käskenyt. Seitsemän päivää kestäköön heidän vihkimisensä.

36 Ja uhraa joka päivä syntiuhrimullikka sovitukseksi, ja puhdista alttari toimittamalla sen sovitus ja voitele se pyhittääksesi sen.

37 Seitsemänä päivänä toimita alttarin sovitus ja pyhitä se. Näin tulee alttarista korkeasti-pyhä; jokainen, joka alttariin koskee, on pyhäkölle pyhitetty.

38 Ja uhraa alttarilla tämä: kaksi vuodenvanhaa karitsaa joka päivä, ainiaan.

39 Uhraa toinen karitsa aamulla ja toinen karitsa iltahämärässä,

40 ja kumpaakin karitsaa kohti kymmenennes lestyjä jauhoja, sekoitettuna neljännekseen hiin-mittaa survomalla saatua öljyä, ja juomauhriksi neljännes hiin-mittaa viiniä.

41 Ja uhraa toinen karitsa iltahämärässä; uhrattakoon se toimittamalla samankaltainen ruokauhri ja juomauhri kuin aamullakin, suloisesti tuoksuvaksi uhriksi Herralle.

42 Tämä olkoon teillä jokapäiväinen polttouhri sukupolvesta sukupolveen ilmestysmajan ovella Herran edessä, jossa minä ilmestyn teille puhuakseni sinun kanssasi.

43 Siinä minä ilmestyn israelilaisille, ja se on oleva minun kirkkauteni pyhittämä.

44 Ja minä pyhitän ilmestysmajan ja alttarin; ja minä pyhitän Aaronin poikinensa pappeina palvelemaan minua.

45 Ja minä asun israelilaisten keskellä ja olen heidän Jumalansa.

46 Ja he tulevat tietämään, että minä olen Herra, heidän Jumalansa, joka vein heidät pois Egyptin maasta, asuakseni heidän keskellään. Minä olen Herra, heidän Jumalansa."

10021. 'And you shall bring the young bull' means a state in which the natural or external man, as this is in its infancy, applies itself. This is clear from the meaning of 'bringing near' as effecting presence and togetherness, dealt with in 9378, 9997, 10001, and also application, 8439, at this point applying oneself to purification and to the reception of goodness and truth from the Divine, because by this sacrifice and by sacrifices generally such application is meant; and from the meaning of 'the young bull' as the good of charity and innocence in the natural or external man, dealt with in 9391, thus the external or natural man as this is in its infancy, for at this time the good of innocence reigns there. While in this state the external man is also in a state of applying itself to purification and to the reception of goodness and truth from the Divine.

[2] Since these matters are now the subject in the internal sense the nature of them must be mentioned. When a person is being regenerated, which happens when he has reached adult life, he is first let into a state of innocence, but a state of external innocence almost like young children's; for their innocence is an external innocence that resides in lack of knowledge. This state serves as the basis for new life while the person is being regenerated; for at this time also the person is a young child so to speak, in that while being regenerated he is conceived anew, born, becomes a young child, and grows up, all of which is accomplished through truth implanted in good. Also to the extent that he comes at this time into authentic good he passes on into the good of internal innocence, which is innocence residing in wisdom. And since the regeneration of a person is an image of the glorification of the Lord, it is evident that the manner in which the Lord glorified Himself, that is, made Divine His Human, is the same. For the subject in the internal sense of this chapter is the glorification of the Lord, 9985; but since the glorification of the Lord's Human is beyond understanding the likeness or image of it must be used to explain it and so give some idea of it. These things have been mentioned first so that people may know what to understand by purification and by reception of goodness and truth, and by joining together the things that are meant by sacrifices generally, and at this point specifically by the sacrifices offered at the consecration of Aaron and his sons to the priestly office.

The regeneration of a person is an image of the glorification of the Lord, see 3138, 3212, 3296, 3490, 4402, 5688.

Young children's innocence is an external innocence, and it resides in lack of knowledge, 2305, 2306, 3494, 3504, 4563, 4797, 5608, 9301.

A person who is being regenerated is conceived anew, born, becomes a young child, then an older one, and grows up, 3203.

The innocence of early childhood serves as a basis, 2780, 3183, 3994, 4797, 5608, 7840.

Cognitions or knowledge of truth and good are implanted in the innocence which belongs to early childhood as their basis, 1616, 2299, 3504, 4797.

The innocence of those who have been regenerated is an internal innocence, and it resides in wisdom, 1616, 3494, 3994, 4797, 5608, 9301, 9938.

The difference between external innocence which young children possess and internal innocence which the wise possess, 2280, 4563, 9301.

The nature of the difference becomes clear from the upbringing and regeneration of children in the next life, dealt with in 2289-2309.

All the good of the Church and heaven holds innocence within itself, and without it good is not good, 2736, 2780, 6013, 7840, 7887, 9262.

What innocence is, 3994, 4001, 4797, 5236, 6107, 6765, 7902, 9262, 9936.

Arcana Coelestia # 2280

2280. That 'perhaps twenty will be found there' means even if there is no existence of conflict but good is nevertheless present is clear from the meaning of 'twenty'. As all the numbers mentioned in the Word mean real things and states, as stated and shown in various places already, see 2252, so also does 'twenty'; and what twenty means becomes clear from how it may be obtained, namely from twice ten. In the Word ten, as also tenths, means remnants, and by these are meant everything good and true which the Lord instills into a person from earliest childhood through to the final period of life. Such remnants are referred to in the verse that follows this. Twice ten, or two tens, that is, twenty, is similar in meaning to ten, but to a higher degree, namely that of good.

[2] Three kinds of goods are meant by 'remnants' - those instilled in earliest childhood, those instilled when want of knowledge is still present, and those instilled when intelligence is present. The goods of earliest childhood are those instilled into a person from birth up to the age when he starts to be taught and to know something. The goods received when want of knowledge is still present are instilled when he is being taught and starting to know something. The goods that come with intelligence are instilled when he is able to reflect on what good is and what truth is. Good instilled in earliest childhood is received up to his tenth year.

[3] Good instilled when want of knowledge is still present is instilled from then until his twentieth year; and from this year the person starts to become rational and to have the ability to reflect on good and truth, and to acquire the good received when intelligence is present. The good instilled when want of knowledge is still present is that which is meant by 'twenty', because those with whom merely that good exists do not enter into any temptation. For no one undergoes temptation until he is able to reflect on and to perceive in his own way what good and truth are. Those who have acquired goods by means of temptations were the subject in the two verses previous to this, while in the present verse the subject is those who do not undergo temptations but who nevertheless possess good.

[4] It is because these who possess the good called 'good instilled during want of knowledge' are meant by 'twenty' that all those who had come out of Egypt were included in the census - from 'a son of twenty years and over', and who, as it is stated, were every one 'going into the army'- by whom were meant those whose good was no longer merely that instilled during want of knowledge, referred to in Numbers 1:20, 24, 26, 28, 30, 32, 34, 38, 40, 42, 45; 26:4. It is also said that all who were over twenty years of age died in the wilderness, Numbers 14:29; 32:10-11, because evil could be attributed to them, and because they represented those who yield in temptations. Also the value set for a male who was between five years of age and twenty years was twenty sheckels, Leviticus 27:5, whereas a different value was set for one between twenty years old and sixty, namely fifty shekels, Leviticus 27:3.

[5] As regards the nature of these different kinds of goods - those instilled in earliest childhood, those when want of knowledge is still present, and those when intelligence is present - the last of these is the best, since it is an attribute of wisdom. The good which precedes it, namely that instilled during want of knowledge, is indeed good, but because it has only a small amount of intelligence within it, it cannot be called the good of wisdom. The good that belongs to earliest childhood is indeed in itself good, but it is nevertheless less good than the other two kinds, because it has not as yet had any truth of intelligence allied to it, and so has not become in any way the good of wisdom, but is merely a plane enabling it to become such. Cognitions of truth and good are what enable a person to be wise in the way possible to man. Earliest childhood itself, by which is meant innocence, does not belong to earliest childhood but to wisdom, as may become clearer from what will be stated at the end of this chapter about young children in the next life.

[6] In this verse 'twenty' means no other kind of good, as has been stated, than the good that belongs to not knowing. This good is a characteristic not only, as has been stated, of those under twenty years of age but also of all with whom the good of charity exists but who at the same time have no knowledge of truth. The latter consists of those inside the Church with whom the good of charity exists but who, for whatever reason, do not know what the truth of faith is - as is the case with the majority of those who think about God with reverence and think what is good about the neighbor - and also of all those outside the Church called gentiles who in a similar way lead lives abiding in the good of charity. Though the truths of faith do not exist with such persons outside the Church and inside it, nevertheless because good does so, they have the capacity, no less than young children do, to receive the truths of faith. For the understanding part of their mind has not yet been corrupted by false assumptions nor has the will part been so confirmed by a life of evil, for they do not know what falsity and evil are. Furthermore the life of charity is of such a nature that the falsity and evil that go with want of knowledge can be turned without difficulty towards what is true and good. This is not so in the case of those who have confirmed themselves in things contrary to the truth and who at the same time have led a life immersed in things contrary to good.

[7] In other places in the Word 'two-tenths' means good, both celestial and spiritual. Celestial good and spiritual good derived from this are meant by the two-tenths from which each loaf of the shewbread or of the Presence was made, Leviticus 24:5, while spiritual good was meant by the two-tenths constituting the minchah that accompanied the sacrifice of a ram, Numbers 15:6; 28:12, 20, 28; 29:3, 9, 14. These matters will in the Lord's Divine mercy be dealt with elsewhere.
