1 Και οταν κληρονητε την γην εις κληρονομιαν, θελετε χωρισει μεριδα εις τον Κυριον, μεριδα αγιαν εκ της γης· το μηκος θελει εισθαι μηκος εικοσιπεντε χιλιαδων καλαμων και το πλατος δεκα χιλιαδων· τουτο θελει εισθαι αγιον κατα παντα τα ορια αυτου κυκλω.

2 Εκ τουτου θελουσιν εισθαι δια το αγιαστηριον πεντακοσιαι κατα μηκος με πεντακοσιας κατα πλατος, τετραγωνον κυκλω, και πεντηκοντα πηχαι κυκλω δια τα προαστεια αυτου.

3 Κατα τουτο λοιπον το μετρον θελεις μετρησει μηκος εικοσιπεντε χιλιαδων και πλατος δεκα χιλιαδων, και εν τουτω θελει εισθαι το αγιαστηριον, το αγιον των αγιων.

4 Τουτο θελει εισθαι εκ της γης, αγια μερις δια τους ιερεις, τους λειτουργουντας εν τω αγιαστηριω, τους πλησιαζοντας δια να λειτουργωσιν εις τον Κυριον· και θελει εισθαι εις αυτους τοπος δια οικιας και τοπος αγιος δια το αγιαστηριον.

5 Και εικοσιπεντε χιλιαδας μηκους και δεκα χιλιαδας πλατους θελουσιν εχει οι Λευιται δι' εαυτους, οι υπηρεται του οικου, δια ιδιοκτησιαν μετα εικοσι θαλαμων.

6 Και θελετε δωσει δια ιδιοκτησιαν της πολεως πεντε χιλιαδας πλατους και εικοσιπεντε χιλιαδας μηκους πλησιον της αγιας μεριδος· τουτο θελει εισθαι δι' απαντα τον οικον Ισραηλ·

7 και δια τον αρχοντα θελει εισθαι μερις εντευθεν και εκειθεν της αγιας μεριδος και της ιδιοκτησιας της πολεως, κατα προσωπον της αγιας μεριδος και κατα προσωπον της ιδιοκτησιας της πολεως, απο του δυτικου προς δυσμας και απο του ανατολικου προς ανατολας· και το μηκος θελει εισθαι πλησιον μιας εκαστης των μεριδων, απο του δυτικου οριου προς το ανατολικον οριον.

8 Εις γην θελει εισθαι εις αυτον η ιδιοκτησια, εν τω Ισραηλ· και οι αρχοντες μου δεν θελουσι πλεον καταβλιβει τον λαον μου· το υπολοιπον δε της γης θελουσι δωσει εις τον οικον Ισραηλ κατα τας φυλας αυτων.

9 Ουτω λεγει Κυριος ο Θεος· Αρκει εις εσας, αρχοντες του Ισραηλ· απομακρυνατε την βιαν και αρπαγην και καμνετε κρισιν και δικαιοσυνην· σηκωσατε τας καταδυναστειας σας απο του λαου μου, λεγει Κυριος ο Θεος.

10 Δικαιαν πλαστιγγα θελετε εχει και δικαιον εφα και δικαιον βαθ.

11 Το εφα και το βαθ θελουσιν εισθαι του αυτου μετρου, ωστε το βαθ να περιλαμβανη το δεκατον του χομορ και το εφα το δεκατον του χομορ· το μετρον αυτου θελει εισθαι κατα το χομορ.

12 Και ο σικλος θελει εισθαι εικοσι γερα· εικοσι σικλοι, εικοσιπεντε σικλοι, δεκαπεντε σικλοι, θελει εισθαι η μνα σας.

13 Η υψουμενη προσφορα, την οποιαν θελετε προσφερει, ειναι αυτη· Το εκτον του εφα ενος χομορ σιτου· και θελετε διδει το εκτον του εφα ενος χομορ κριθης.

14 Περι δε του διαταγματος του ελαιου, ενος βαθ ελαιου, θελετε προσφερει το δεκατον του βαθ δια εν κορ, το οποιον ειναι εν χομορ εκ δεκα βαθ· διοτι δεκα βαθ ειναι εν χομορ.

15 Και εκ του ποιμνιου εν προβατον απο των διακοσιων, απο των παχειων βοσκων του Ισραηλ, δια προσφοραν εξ αλφιτων και δια ολοκαυτωμα και δια ειρηνικας προσφορας, δια να καμνη εξιλεωσιν υπερ αυτων, λεγει Κυριος ο Θεος.

16 Πας ο λαος της γης θελει διδει ταυτην την υψουμενην προσφοραν εις τον αρχοντα εν τω Ισραηλ.

17 Εις δε τον αρχοντα ανηκει να διδη τα ολοκαυτωματα και τας εξ αλφιτων προσφορας και τας σπονδας, εν ταις εορταις και εν ταις νεομηνιαις και εν τοις σαββασι κατα πασας τας πανηγυρεις του οικου Ισραηλ· αυτος θελει ετοιμαζει την περι αμαρτιας προσφοραν και την εξ αλφιτων προσφοραν και το ολοκαυτωμα και τας ειρηνικας προσφορας, δια να καμνη εξιλεωσιν υπερ του οικου Ισραηλ.

18 Ουτω λεγει Κυριος ο Θεος· Εν τω πρωτω μηνι, τη πρωτη του μηνος, θελεις λαμβανει μοσχον βοος αμωμον και θελεις καθαριζει το αγιαστηριον·

19 και ο ιερευς θελει λαμβανει απο του αιματος της περι αμαρτιας προσφορας και θελει θετει επι τους παραστατας του οικου και επι τας τεσσαρας γωνιας της οφρυος του θυσιαστηριου και επι τους παραστατας της πυλης της εσωτερας αυλης.

20 Και ουτω θελεις καμνει τη εβδομη του μηνος υπερ παντος αμαρτανοντος εξ αγνοιας και υπερ του απλου· ουτω θελετε καμνει εξιλεωσιν υπερ του οικου.

21 Εν τω πρωτω μηνι, τη δεκατη τεταρτη ημερα του μηνος, θελει εισθαι εις εσας το πασχα, εορτη επτα ημερων· αζυμα θελουσι τρωγει.

22 Και κατ' εκεινην την ημεραν ο αρχων θελει ετοιμαζει υπερ εαυτου και υπερ παντος του λαου της γης μοσχον δια προσφοραν περι αμαρτιας.

23 Και εν ταις επτα ημεραις της εορτης θελει καμνει ολοκαυτωματα εις τον Κυριον, επτα μοσχους και επτα κριους αμωμους καθ' ημεραν εν ταις επτα ημεραις, και τραγον εξ αιγων καθ' ημεραν δια προσφοραν περι αμαρτιας.

24 Και θελει ετοιμαζει προσφοραν εξ αλφιτων ενος εφα δια τον μοσχον και ενος εφα δια τον κριον και ενος ι ελαιου εις το εφα.

25 Εν τω εβδομω μηνι, τη δεκατη πεμπτη ημερα του μηνος, θελει καμνει εν τη εορτη κατα τα αυτα επτα ημερας, κατα την προσφοραν την περι αμαρτιας, κατα τα ολοκαυτωματα και κατα την εξ αλφιτων προσφοραν και κατα το ελαιον.

36. I became in the spirit on the Lord's day. (1:10) This symbolizes a spiritual state then owing to Divine influx.

"I became in the spirit" means, symbolically, a spiritual state, the state in which John was while he was experiencing the visions, and which we will take up in the following exposition. "On the Lord's day" symbolizes influx from the Lord then, for that day brings the Lord's presence, as it is a holy day.

Concerning the prophets we read that they were in the spirit or in vision, and that the Word came to them from Jehovah.

When they were in the spirit or in vision, they were not in the body, but in their spirit, a state in which they saw phenomena such as are found in heaven. But when the Word came to them, they were then in the body and heard Jehovah speaking.

These two states of the prophets must be properly distinguished. In the state of vision the eyes of their spirit were open and the eyes of their body closed; and they heard then what angels said, and what Jehovah said through angels, and also saw representations produced for them in heaven. Moreover, they sometimes seemed to themselves to be taken then from place to place, their body remaining where it was.

[2] This was the state in which John was when he wrote the book of Revelation, and the state sometimes experienced by Ezekiel, Zechariah, and Daniel. They also said that they were then in vision or in the spirit. For Ezekiel says,

The Spirit lifted me up... and brought me back into Chaldea, to those in captivity, in a vision (of God), in the spirit of God. (Thus) went up from me the vision that I had seen. (Ezekiel 11:1, 24)

He also says that the Spirit lifted him up, and he heard behind him an earthquake, and more (Ezekiel 3:12, 24). So, too, that the Spirit lifted him up between earth and heaven, that it brought him in visions of God to Jerusalem, and that he saw abominations (Ezekiel 8:3f.). He was likewise in a vision of God or in the spirit when he saw the four living creatures, which were cherubim (Ezekiel 1; 10), as also when he saw a new earth and a new temple, and an angel measuring them (Ezekiel 40; 41; 42; 43; 44; 45; 46; 47; 48). That he was then in the visions of God, he himself says (Ezekiel 40:2), and that the spirit lifted him up (Ezekiel 43:5).

[3] The same was the case with Zechariah, who had an angel with him at the time, when he saw a man riding a horse among the myrtle trees (Zechariah 1:8ff.); when he saw the four horns, and then a man with a measuring line in his hand (Zechariah 1:18; 2:1ff.); when he saw Joshua the high priest (Zechariah 3:1ff.); when he saw the lampstand and two olive trees (Zechariah 4:1ff.); when he saw the flying scroll and the ephah (Zechariah 5:1, 6); when he saw the four chariots coming from between two mountains, and the horses (Zechariah 6:1ff.).

Daniel was in a like state when he saw the four beasts coming up from the sea (Daniel 7:1ff.), and when he saw the combat between the ram and the male goat (Daniel 8:1ff.). He himself says that he saw these things in visions (Daniel 7:1-2, 7, 13; 8:2; 10:1, 7-8), and that the angel Gabriel appeared to him in a vision (Daniel 9:21).

[4] The same was the case with John, as when he saw the Son of Man in the midst of the seven lampstands (Revelation 1), and finally, the new heaven and the new earth, and then the New Jerusalem coming down out of heaven (Revelation 21, 22. John himself says that he saw these things in the spirit and in vision (1:10; 4:2; 9:17; 21:10). This, too, is meant by the statement, "I saw," everywhere it occurs in this book.

[5] It is clearly apparent from this that to be in the spirit is to be in a state of vision, which is brought about by an opening of the sight of a person's spirit; and when this is opened, phenomena found in the spiritual world are as clearly visible as those in the natural world are to the sight of the body.

The reality of this is something I can attest to from many years' experience.

The disciples were in this state when they saw the Lord after His resurrection, which is why are told that their eyes were opened (Luke 24:30-31).

Abraham was in a like state when he saw the three angels and spoke with them. 1

So, too, Hagar, Gideon, Joshua and others, when they saw angels of Jehovah. Likewise when Elisha's lad saw the mountain full of fiery chariots and horses all around Elisha, for Elisha prayed and said,

"Jehovah, open, I pray, his eyes that he may see." And Jehovah opened the eyes of the lad, and he saw. (2 Kings 6:17)

As regards the Word, however, it was not revealed in a state of the spirit or of vision, but the Lord dictated it to the prophets in an audible voice. Consequently we are nowhere told that the prophets spoke it from the Holy Spirit, but from Jehovah. See The Doctrine of the New Jerusalem Regarding the Lord, no. 53.

Ezekiel 44

Studie

   

1 Then he brought me back by the way of the outer gate of the sanctuary, which looks toward the east; and it was shut.

2 Yahweh said to me, This gate shall be shut; it shall not be opened, neither shall any man enter in by it; for Yahweh, the God of Israel, has entered in by it; therefore it shall be shut.

3 As for the prince, he shall sit therein as prince to eat bread before Yahweh; he shall enter by the way of the porch of the gate, and shall go out by the way of the same.

4 Then he brought me by the way of the north gate before the house; and I looked, and behold, the glory of Yahweh filled the house of Yahweh: and I fell on my face.

5 Yahweh said to me, Son of man, mark well, and see with your eyes, and hear with your ears all that I tell you concerning all the ordinances of the house of Yahweh, and all its laws; and mark well the entrance of the house, with every exit of the sanctuary.

6 You shall tell the rebellious, even to the house of Israel, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: you house of Israel, let it suffice you of all your abominations,

7 in that you have brought in foreigners, uncircumcised in heart and uncircumcised in flesh, to be in my sanctuary, to profane it, even my house, when you offer my bread, the fat and the blood, and they have broken my covenant, [to add] to all your abominations.

8 You have not performed the duty of my holy things; but you have set performers of my duty in my sanctuary for yourselves.

9 Thus says the Lord Yahweh, No foreigner, uncircumcised in heart and uncircumcised in flesh, shall enter into my sanctuary, of any foreigners who are among the children of Israel.

10 But the Levites who went far from me, when Israel went astray, who went astray from me after their idols, they shall bear their iniquity.

11 Yet they shall be ministers in my sanctuary, having oversight at the gates of the house, and ministering in the house: they shall kill the burnt offering and the sacrifice for the people, and they shall stand before them to minister to them.

12 Because they ministered to them before their idols, and became a stumbling block of iniquity to the house of Israel; therefore have I lifted up my hand against them, says the Lord Yahweh, and they shall bear their iniquity.

13 They shall not come near to me, to execute the office of priest to me, nor to come near to any of my holy things, to the things that are most holy; but they shall bear their shame, and their abominations which they have committed.

14 Yet will I make them performers of the duty of the house, for all its service, and for all that shall be done therein.

15 But the priests the Levites, the sons of Zadok, who performed the duty of my sanctuary when the children of Israel went astray from me, they shall come near to me to minister to me; and they shall stand before me to offer to me the fat and the blood, says the Lord Yahweh:

16 they shall enter into my sanctuary, and they shall come near to my table, to minister to me, and they shall keep my instruction.

17 It shall be that, when they enter in at the gates of the inner court, they shall be clothed with linen garments; and no wool shall come on them, while they minister in the gates of the inner court, and within.

18 They shall have linen tires on their heads, and shall have linen breeches on their waists; they shall not clothe themselves with [anything that causes] sweat.

19 When they go forth into the outer court, even into the outer court to the people, they shall put off their garments in which they minister, and lay them in the holy rooms; and they shall put on other garments, that they not sanctify the people with their garments.

20 Neither shall they shave their heads, nor allow their locks to grow long; they shall only cut off the hair of their heads.

21 Neither shall any of the priests drink wine, when they enter into the inner court.

22 Neither shall they take for their wives a widow, nor her who is put away; but they shall take virgins of the seed of the house of Israel, or a widow who is the widow of a priest.

23 They shall teach my people the difference between the holy and the common, and cause them to discern between the unclean and the clean.

24 In a controversy they shall stand to judge; according to my ordinances shall they judge it: and they shall keep my laws and my statutes in all my appointed feasts; and they shall make my Sabbaths holy.

25 They shall go in to no dead person to defile themselves; but for father, or for mother, or for son, or for daughter, for brother, or for sister who has had no husband, they may defile themselves.

26 After he is cleansed, they shall reckon to him seven days.

27 In the day that he goes into the sanctuary, into the inner court, to minister in the sanctuary, he shall offer his sin offering, says the Lord Yahweh.

28 They shall have an inheritance: I am their inheritance; and you shall give them no possession in Israel; I am their possession.

29 They shall eat the meal offering, and the sin offering, and the trespass offering; and every devoted thing in Israel shall be theirs.

30 The first of all the first fruits of every thing, and every offering of everything, of all your offerings, shall be for the priest: you shall also give to the priests the first of your dough, to cause a blessing to rest on your house.

31 The priests shall not eat of anything that dies of itself, or is torn, whether it be bird or animal.
