1 Και ελαλησε Κυριος προς τον Μωυσην, λεγων,

2 Λαλησον προς πασαν την συναγωγην των υιων Ισραηλ και ειπε προς αυτους, Αγιοι θελετε εισθαι· διοτι αγιος ειμαι εγω Κυριος ο Θεος σας.

3 Θελετε φοβεισθαι εκαστος την μητερα αυτου και τον πατερα αυτου· και τα σαββατα μου θελετε φυλαττει. Εγω ειμαι Κυριος ο Θεος σας.

4 Μη στραφητε εις ειδωλα μηδε καμητε εις εαυτους θεους χωνευτους. Εγω ειμαι Κυριος ο Θεος σας.

5 Και οταν προσφερητε θυσιαν ειρηνικης προσφορας προς τον Κυριον, αυτοπροαιρετως θελετε προσφερει αυτην.

6 Θελει τρωγεσθαι την ημεραν καθ' ην προσφερετε αυτην, και την επαυριον· εαν δε μεινη τι εως της τριτης ημερας, με πυρ θελει κατακαυθη.

7 Εαν δε ποτε φαγωθη την ημεραν την τριτην, ειναι βδελυκτον· δεν θελει εισθαι ευπροσδεκτος.

8 Δια τουτο οστις φαγη αυτην, θελει βαστασει την ανομιαν αυτου, διοτι εβεβηλωσε τα αγια του Κυριου· και η ψυχη αυτη θελει εξολοθρευθη εκ του λαου αυτης.

9 Και οταν θεριζητε τον θερισμον της γης σας, δεν θελεις θερισει ολοκληρως τας ακρας του αγρου σου και τα αποπιπτοντα του θερισμου σου δεν θελεις συλλεξει.

10 Και τον αμπελωνα σου δεν θελεις επανατρυγησει ουτε τας ρωγας του αμπελωνος σου θελεις συλλεξει· εις τον πτωχον και εις τον ξενον θελεις αφησει αυτας. Εγω ειμαι Κυριος ο Θεος σας.

11 Δεν θελετε κλεπτει ουδε θελετε ψευδεσθαι ουδε θελετε απατησει εκαστος τον πλησιον αυτου.

12 Και δεν θελετε ομνυει εις το ονομα μου ψευδως και δεν θελεις βεβηλονει το ονομα του Θεου σου. Εγω ειμαι ο Κυριος.

13 Δεν θελεις αδικησει τον πλησιον σου ουδε θελεις αρπασει· δεν θελει διανυκτερευσει ο μισθος του μισθωτου μετα σου εως πρωι.

14 Δεν θελεις κακολογησει τον κωφον, και εμπροσθεν του τυφλου δεν θελεις βαλει προσκομμα, αλλα θελεις φοβηθη τον Θεον σου. Εγω ειμαι ο Κυριος.

15 Δεν θελετε καμει αδικιαν εις κρισιν· δεν θελεις αποβλεψει εις προσωπον πτωχου ουδε θελεις σεβασθη προσωπον δυναστου· εν δικαιοσυνη θελεις κρινει τον πλησιον σου.

16 Δεν θελεις περιφερεσθαι συκοφαντων μεταξυ του λαου σου· ουδε θελεις σηκωθη κατα του αιματος του πλησιον σου. Εγω ειμαι ο Κυριος.

17 Δεν θελεις μισησει τον αδελφον σου εν τη καρδια σου· θελεις ελεγξει παρρησια τον πλησιον σου και δεν θελεις υποφερει αμαρτιαν επ' αυτον.

18 Δεν θελεις εκδικεισθαι ουδε θελεις μνησικακει κατα των υιων του λαου σου· αλλα θελεις αγαπα τον πλησιον σου ως σεαυτον. Εγω ειμαι ο Κυριος.

19 Τα νομιμα μου θελετε φυλαττει· δεν θελεις καμει τα κτηνη σου να βατευωνται με ετεροειδη· εις τον αγρον σου δεν θελεις σπειρει ετεροειδη σπερματα· ουδε θελεις βαλει επανω σου ενδυμα συμμικτον εξ ετεροειδους κλωστης.

20 Και εαν τις συνουσιασθη μετα γυναικος, ητις ειναι δουλη ηρραβωνισμενη μετα ανδρος και δεν ειναι εξηγορασμενη, ουδε εδοθη εις αυτην η ελευθερια, θελουσι μαστιγωθη· δεν θελουσι φονευθη, διοτι αυτη δεν ητο ελευθερα.

21 Και αυτος θελει φερει την περι ανομιας προσφοραν αυτου προς τον Κυριον εις την θυραν της σκηνης του μαρτυριου, κριον δια προσφοραν περι ανομιας.

22 Και θελει καμει ο ιερευς εξιλεωσιν περι αυτου δια του κριου της περι ανομιας προσφορας ενωπιον του Κυριου, δια την αμαρτιαν αυτου την οποιαν ημαρτησε· και θελει συγχωρηθη εις αυτον η αμαρτια αυτου την οποιαν ημαρτησε.

23 Και οταν εισελθητε εις την γην και φυτευσητε παν δενδρον τροφιμον, τοτε θελετε περικαθαριζει τον καρπον αυτου ως ακαθαρτον· τρια ετη θελει εισθαι εις εσας ακαθαρτος· δεν θελει τρωγεσθαι.

24 Και εις το τεταρτον ετος θελει εισθαι ολος ο καρπος αυτου αγιος εις δοξαν του Κυριου.

25 Εις δε το πεμπτον ετος θελετε τρωγει τον καρπον αυτου, δια να πληθυνθη εις εσας το εισοδημα αυτου. Εγω ειμαι Κυριος ο Θεος σας.

26 Δεν θελετε τρωγει ουδεν μετα του αιματος αυτου· ουδε θελετε μεταχειριζεσθαι μαντειας ουδε θελετε προμαντευει καιρους.

27 Δεν θελετε κουρευσει κυκλοειδως την κομην της κεφαλης σας ουδε θελετε φθειρει τα ακρα των πωγωνων σας.

28 Δεν θελετε καμει εντομιδας εις το σωμα σας δια νεκρον, ουδε γραμματα στικτα θελετε εγχαραξει επανω σας. Εγω ειμαι ο Κυριος.

29 Δεν θελεις βεβηλωσει την θυγατερα σου, καθιστων αυτην πορνην· μηπως ο τοπος πεση εις πορνειαν και γεμιση ο τοπος απο ασεβειας.

30 Τα σαββατα μου θελετε φυλαττει, και το αγιαστηριον μου θελετε σεβεσθαι. Εγω ειμαι ο Κυριος.

31 Δεν θελετε ακολουθει τους εχοντας πνευμα μαντειας ουδε θελετε προσκολληθη εις επαοιδους, ωστε να μιαινησθε δι' αυτων. Εγω ειμαι Κυριος ο Θεος σας.

32 Ενωπιον της πολιας θελεις προσηκονεσθαι και θελεις τιμησει το προσωπον του γεροντος και θελεις φοβηθη τον Θεον σου. Εγω ειμαι ο Κυριος.

33 Και εαν τις ξενος παροικη μετα σου εν τη γη υμων, δεν θελετε θλιψει αυτον·

34 ο ξενος, ο παροικων με σας, θελει εισθαι εις εσας ως ο αυτοχθων, και θελεις αγαπα αυτον ως σεαυτον· διοτι ξενοι εσταθητε εν γη Αιγυπτου. Εγω ειμαι Κυριος ο Θεος σας.

35 Δεν θελετε πραξει αδικιαν εις κρισιν, εις μετρα, εις σταθμα και εις ζυγια·

36 ζυγια δικαια σταθμα δικαια, εφα δικαιον, και ιν δικαιον, θελετε εχει. Εγω ειμαι Κυριος ο Θεος σας, οστις σας εξηγαγον εκ γης Αιγυπτου.

37 Θελετε φυλαττει λοιπον παντα τα διαταγματα μου και πασας τας κρισεις μου και θελετε καμνει αυτα. Εγω ειμαι ο Κυριος.

2187. 'And they ate' means communication in this manner. This becomes clear from the meaning of 'eating' as being communicated, and also being joined together, as is also evident from the Word. The injunction that Aaron, and his sons the Levites, and also the people were to eat the consecrated elements of the sacrifices in a holy place meant nothing other than the communication, conjunction, and making one's own, as stated above in 2177, at the point where Leviticus 6:16-17, is referred to. For it was celestial and spiritual food that was meant by the consecrated elements, and thus making that food their own by eating those elements. These consecrated elements were those parts of the sacrifices which were not burned on the altar but were eaten either by the priests or by the people who brought the offering, as becomes clear from very many places where the sacrifices are the subject. The consecrated elements that were to be eaten by the priests are referred to in Exodus 29:32-33; Leviticus 6:16, 26; 7:6, 15-16, 18; 8:31; 10:12-13; Numbers 18:9-11; and those to be eaten by the people, in Leviticus 19:5-6; Deuteronomy 12:27; 27:7; and elsewhere. And that those who were unclean were not to eat of them is referred to in Leviticus 7:19-21; 22:4-7. These ritual feasts took place in a holy place near the altar, either at the gate or in the court outside the tent. And they meant nothing else than the communication, conjunction, and making of celestial goods one's own, for those feasts represented celestial food. For what celestial food is, see 56-58, 680, 681, 1480, 1695. And all those consecrated elements were called 'bread', for the meaning of which see above in 2165. Something similar was represented by Aaron and his sons eating the loaves of the presence, or the shewbread, in a holy place, Leviticus 24:9.

[2] The reason for the law given to the Nazirite that during the days of his Naziriteship he was forbidden to eat anything that is produced from the grape - from which wine is made - from pips even to skin, Numbers 6:4, is that the Nazirite represented the celestial man, and the celestial man is such as is not willing even to mention spiritual things, see Volume One, in 202, 337, 880 (end), 1647. And because 'wine' and 'the grape', and also whatever came from the grape, meant that which is spiritual, the Nazirite was therefore forbidden to eat of them, that is, to have any communication with spiritual things, to join himself to them, or to make them his own.

[3] Something similar is meant by 'eating' in Isaiah,

Everyone who thirsts, come to the waters, and he who has no money, come, buy, and eat! Come, buy wine and milk without money and without price. Why do you spend money on that which is not bread, and your labour on that which does not satisfy? Hearken diligently to Me and eat what is good, and your soul will delight itself in fatness. Isaiah 55:1-2.

And also what is said in John,

To him who conquers I will grant to eat from the tree of life which is in the middle of the Paradise of God. Revelation 2:7.

'The tree of life' is the celestial itself, and in the highest sense it is the Lord Himself since He is the source of everything celestial, that is, of all love and charity. Thus 'eating from the tree of life' is the same as feeding on the Lord; and 'feeding on the Lord' is being endowed with love and charity, thus with those things that belong to heavenly life, as the Lord Himself declares in John,

I am the living bread which came down from heaven; if anyone eats of this bread he will live for ever. He who feeds on Me will live through Me. John 6:51, 57. But they said, This is a hard saying. Jesus said however, The words that I speak to you, they are spirit and they are life. John 6:60, 63.

From this it is evident what is meant by 'eating' in the Holy Supper, Matthew 26:26-28; Mark 14:22-23; Luke 22:19-20 - having communication, being joined together, and making one's own.

[4] From this it is also plain what is meant by the Lord's statement that

Many will come from the east and from the west and will recline with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Matthew 8:11.

The Lord did not mean that they were going to feast with these three in the kingdom of God but that they were to enjoy the celestial goods meant by Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. That is to say, they were to enjoy the inmost celestial goods of love, meant by -Abraham'; also a lower type of goods, which are intermediate, as those are which belong to the rational, meant by 'Isaac'; and a still lower type of goods which are celestial-natural, such as occur in the first heaven, meant by 'Jacob'. These are the things which constitute the internal sense of these words. That such things are meant by Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, see 1893, and wherever else they are the subject. For whether one speaks of enjoying those celestial things, or whether one speaks of enjoying the Lord, whom they represent, it amounts to the same since the Lord is the source of all those things, and the Lord is their All in all.
