3 Mózes 6

Studie

   

1 Szóla ismét az Úr Mózesnek, mondván:

2 Mikor vétkezik valaki, és hûtlenséget követ el az Úr ellen, [tudniillik] eltagadja felebarátjának reábízott vagy kezébe adott holmiját, vagy megrabolja vagy zsarolja felebarátját;

3 Vagy ha elveszett holmit talált, és eltagadja, vagy valami miatt hamisan esküszik, akármi is az, a mit az ember úgy cselekszik, hogy vétkezik vele:

4 Mivelhogy azért bûnössé lett és vétkezett, térítse vissza az elrablottat, a mit rabolt, vagy a zsaroltat, a mit zsarolt, vagy a reá bízottat, a mi reá bízatott, vagy az elveszettet, a mit megtalált;

5 Vagy akármi legyen, a mire hamisan esküdött, fizesse meg azt teljes értéke szerint, és hozzátoldva az ötödrészét, adja azt annak, a kié volt, bûnbevallásának napján.

6 Az õ bûnéért pedig vigyen az Úrnak a nyájból egy ép kost a paphoz, a te becslésed szerint, bûnért való áldozatul.

7 Így szerezzen néki engesztelést a pap az Úr elõtt, és megbocsáttatik néki mindaz, a mit cselekedett, és a miben vétkezett.

8 Szóla ismét az Úr Mózesnek, mondván:

9 Parancsolj Áronnak és az õ fiainak, mondván: Ez az egészen égõáldozat törvénye: Legyen az egészen égõáldozat az oltáron levõ tüzelõhelyen egész éjszaka, mind reggelig, és az oltárnak tüze égve maradjon azon.

10 A pap öltse fel az õ gyolcs ruháját, és a gyolcs lábravalót is öltse fel az õ testére, és szedje el a hamut, a mivé égette a tûz az égõáldozatot az oltáron, és töltse azt az oltár mellé.

11 Azután vesse le azt a ruháját, és öltözzék más ruhába, és vigye ki a hamut a táboron kivül, tiszta helyre.

12 Az oltáron lévõ tûz pedig égve maradjon azon, el ne aludjék, hanem égessen fát rajta a pap minden reggel, és rakja reá az egészen égõáldozatot, és azon füstölögtesse el a hálaáldozat kövérjét [is].

13 A tûz szüntelen égve maradjon az oltáron, és el ne aludjék.

14 Ez pedig az ételáldozatnak törvénye: az Áron fiai áldozzák azt az Úr elõtt az oltáron.

15 És vegyen valaki közülök az ételáldozat lisztlángjából egy marokkal, és annak olajából is, a tömjént pedig, a mely az ételáldozathoz való, mind; és égesse el az oltáron; annak emlékeztetõ része kedves illat az Úr elõtt.

16 A mi pedig megmarad belõle, egyék meg Áron és az õ fiai, kovásztalanul egyék meg, szenthelyen, a gyülekezet sátorának pitvarában egyék meg azt.

17 Ne süssék [azt] kovászszal, [mert] nékik adtam azt, részökül az én tûzáldozataimból; igen szentséges az, mint a bûnért és vétekért való áldozat.

18 Az Áron fiai közül minden férfiú egye azt. Örökkévaló rendtartás legyen ez a ti nemzetségeiteknél az Úrnak tûzáldozatai felõl. Valaki illeti azokat, szent legyen.

19 Szóla ismét az Úr Mózesnek, mondván:

20 Ez Áronnak és az õ fiainak áldozatjok, a melyet az Úrnak áldozzanak, mikor felkenik õket: Egy efa lisztlángnak tizedrésze mindenkor ételáldozatul, fele reggel, fele pedig estve.

21 Serpenyõben készíttessék, olajjal összegyúrva vidd el azt, az ételáldozati süteményeket darabokban áldozd az Úrnak kedves illatul.

22 A mely pap az õ helyébe kenetik fel az õ fiai közül, az mívelje ezt. Örökkévaló rendtartás ez, az Úrnak mindenestõl füstölögtessék el.

23 Mert a pap minden ételáldozatának mindenestõl meg kell égettetni, nem kell [abból semmit] megenni.

24 Szóla ismét az Úr Mózesnek, mondván:

25 Szólj Áronnak és az õ fiainak, mondván: Ez a bûnért való áldozat törvénye: a mely helyen meg szokták ölni az egészen égõáldozatot, azon a helyen öljék meg a bûnért való áldozatot az Úr elõtt; igen szentséges az.

26 A mely pap megáldozza azt a bûnért, az egye meg azt, szent helyen egye meg, a gyülekezet sátorának pitvarában.

27 Valami annak a húsát érinti, szent legyen, és ha annak vérébõl valami a ruhájára esik [valakinek], azt, a mire a vér esett, mosd meg szenthelyen.

28 És a cserépedényt, a melyben azt fõzték, törjék el; hogyha pedig érczfazékban fõzték, súrolják meg, és mossák meg vízzel.

29 A papok között minden férfiú eheti azt; igen szentséges az.

30 Valamely bûnért való áldozat vérébõl bevisznek a gyülekezet sátorába, a szenthelyen való engesztelés végett, az meg nem ehetõ: tûzzel égettessék meg.

10133. 'A continual [offering]' means within all Divine worship. This is clear from the meaning of 'continual', when it refers to such things as belong to Divine worship, as all and within all. For the subject is purification from evils and falsities by means of the good of innocence, this good being meant by 'lambs' and purification from evils and consequent falsities by a burnt offering of them. This is called 'continual' because it must be present in all Divine worship. Therefore also the offering was presented twice each day, in the morning and in the evening; and offerings made morning and evening served in general to represent all worship and what must be present within all worship. The good of innocence must be in all good, and consequently in all truth, if they are to be goodness and truth that have life from the Divine within them, and so it must be within all worship. For all worship, to be worship, must spring from the good of love and from the truths of faith.

All of the Church's and of heaven's good has innocence within it, and without that innocence good is not good, nor therefore is worship worship, see 2736, 2780, 6013, 7840, 7887, 9262.

What innocence is, 3994, 4001, 4797, 5236, 6107, 6765, 7902, 9262, 9936, and the places referred to in 10021 (end).

[2] 'Continual' means all and within all - that is to say, the all of worship, and within all worship - because it is a term that has a temporal connotation and in heaven, where the Word is understood not in the natural but in the spiritual sense, people have no notions of time. Instead of periods of time they perceive the kinds of things that are states. By 'continual' at this point therefore they perceive a perpetual state within worship, thus the all of worship and within all worship. The same applies to all other terms in the Word which have temporal connotations, such as yesterday, today, tomorrow, two days, three days, daily, a week, a month, a year, also times of day and seasons of the year - morning, midday, evening, night, spring, summer, autumn, and winter. Therefore if the spiritual sense of the Word is to be understood, any idea of a period of time acquired from its natural sense, any idea of a place as well, indeed any idea of an actual person must be set aside, and states of things must be conceived of instead. From this it may be seen how perfect the Word is in its internal sense, and so how perfect is the perception of it by the angels in heaven, consequently how much more excellent angels' wisdom and understanding are than the understanding and wisdom of people in the world, who think with solely natural vision focused on the completely finite things of this world and planet. Regarding periods of time in heaven, that they are states, see 1274, 1382, 2625, 2788, 2837, 3254, 3356, 3404, 3827, 4814, 4882, 4901, 4916, 6110, 7218, 7381, 8070; and regarding what states are, 4850.

[3] From all this it is evident what the continual burnt offering of lambs means, and so what 'continual' and 'continually' mean elsewhere, as in the commands that 'the fire shall burn continually on the altar', Leviticus 6:13, and that 'the continual bread shall be on the table', Numbers 4:7. 'The fire' there and 'the bread' mean the good of love received from the Lord and offered back to Him. For 'the fire', that it has this meaning, see 4906, 5215, 6314, 6832, 6834, 6849, 7324, 7852, 10055; and also for 'the bread', 2165, 2177, 3478, 3735, 3813, 4211, 4217, 4735, 4976, 9323, 9545. In those places as well 'continual' means in addition that this good must be present in all worship; and the fact that the same good is the source from which the truth of faith must shine, as if from its fire, is meant by the decree that they were to cause a lamp to go up 1 continually, Exodus 27:20, 'a lamp' being the truth and good of faith, see 9548, 9783.

9548. 'And you shall make a lampstand' means the spiritual heaven. This is clear from the meaning of 'a lampstand' as the Divine Spiritual from the Lord in heaven and in the Church. The reason why 'a lampstand' means the Divine Spiritual is that 'the table' on which the loaves of the Presence were laid means the Divine Celestial, as has been shown in what has gone before. The Divine Celestial is the good of love, and the Divine Spiritual the truth of faith derived from that good; and both of these emanate from the Lord, 9227. The lampstand is the Divine Spiritual on account of the light it sheds; for Divine Truth which emanates from the Lord's Divine Good is what shines in heaven. There is no other source from which angels receive light. This is why in the Word the Lord is called the Light, and why 'light' means faith, also an intelligent understanding of truth and a wise discernment of good, which come from the Lord alone, see 1053, 1521-1533, 1619-1632, 2776, 3094, 3138, 3167, 3190, 3195, 3222, 3223, 3337, 3339, 3341, 3636, 3643, 3862, 3993, 4060, 4180, 4302, 4408, 4414, 4415, 4419, 4527, 4598, 5400, 6032, 6313, 6315, 6608, 6907, 7174, 8644, 8707, 8861, 9399, 9407.

[2] 'A lampstand' means the spiritual heaven by virtue of Divine Truth which is present there from the Lord, and therefore also means the Church; and 'a lamp' means faith, also an intelligent understanding of truth and a wise discernment of good, which come from the Lord alone. This is clear from places in the Word where 'lampstand' and 'lamp' are mentioned, as in John,

I saw seven golden lampstands, and in the midst of the seven lampstands one like the Son of Man. The seven lampstands are the seven Churches. Revelation 1:12-13, 20.

And in the same book,

I will remove your lampstand from its place if you do not repent. Revelation 2:5.

A Church is called 'a lampstand' in these places by virtue of Divine Truth which is present there from the Lord. The fact that 'a lampstand' means a Church is self-evident, for it says, 'The seven lampstands are the seven Churches'. The fact that a Church is called such on account of Divine Truth is evident from the statement, 'I will remove your lampstand if you do not repent'. And the fact that this Truth comes from the Lord [is also self-evident], for it says, 'In the midst of the lampstands one like the Son of Man'; and the Lord is called the Son of Man by virtue of His Divine Truth, see 2803, 2813, 3704.

[3] In the same book,

I will grant My two witnesses to prophesy one thousand two hundred and sixty days. These are the two olive trees and the two lampstands standing before the God of the earth. Revelation 11:3-10.

'The two witnesses' are the Word in both Testaments, in that they bear witness to the Lord. It is called 'an olive tree' by virtue of the Divine Good and 'a lampstand' by virtue of the Divine Truth which come from the Lord.

[4] In Zechariah, when the angel who was speaking said to the prophet,

What do you see? I said to him, I see, and behold, a lampstand all of gold; its bowl is on top of it, 1 and its seven lamps are on it with seven pipes to the lamps. Two olive trees are beside it, one on the right of the bowl and one on the left of it. Zechariah 4:2-3.

This refers to Zerubbabel, who was about to lay a foundation for God's house and bring it to completion. He represents the Lord, in that He was about to come and to re-establish the spiritual heaven and the Church, these being what is meant by 'a lampstand', and the holy truths there what is meant by 'seven lamps'.

[5] The fact that 'a lamp' means faith, also an intelligent understanding of truth and a wise discernment of good, which come from the Lord alone, is clear in John,

The holy Jerusalem has no need of the sun or of the moon to shed light in it. The glory of God will give it light, and its lamp is the Lamb. The nations that are saved will walk in His light. Revelation 21:23-24.

And further on,

There will be no night there, nor do they need a lamp or light of the sun, for the Lord God gives them light. Revelation 22:5.

'Lamp' in the first quotation stands for Divine Truth that comes from the Lord, and 'light' for faith, and so also for intelligence and wisdom. In the same book,

The light of a lamp will not shine in you any more, and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride will not be heard in you any more. Revelation 18:23.

[6] And in Jeremiah,

I will take away the voice of joy and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the sound of mills, and the light of the lamp, that the whole land may be a desolation and devastation. Jeremiah 25:10-11.

This refers to the elimination of faith and consequently of intelligence in spiritual matters meant here by the lamp which will no longer be there and by 'the light of the lamp' which will be taken away.

[7] The like occurs in Job,

How often is the lamp of the wicked put out and [how often] does destruction come upon them? Job 21:17.

In David,

You light my lamp; Jehovah my God makes my darkness bright. Psalms 18:28; 2 Samuel 22:29.

In the same author,

By Your commands I have been made intelligent. Your Word is a lamp to my foot, and a light to my path. Psalms 119:104-105.

In Job,

When God causes a lamp to shine over my head I would walk in darkness towards His light. Job 29:3.

In Matthew,

The lamp of the body is the eye. If your eye is good, your whole body will be full of light; but if your eye is evil your whole body will be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in you is darkness, how great is the darkness! Matthew 6:22-23; Luke 8:16; 11:33-36.

'The eye' is used here to mean faith and consequent intelligence - the fact that these are meant in the internal sense by 'the eye', see 4403-4421, 4523-4534, 9051. And from this the meaning of the words, 'If your eye is good your whole body will be full of light; but if your eye is evil your whole body will be full of darkness' is self-evident. Since faith and consequent intelligence and wisdom is meant by 'a lamp' the kings of Judah are called lamps to David, 1 Kings 11:36; 15:4; 2 Kings 8:19; and David himself is called the lamp of Israel, 2 Samuel 21:16-17. Not that the kings of Judah were lamps; nor was David. Rather they were called such because 'a king' means Divine Truth that comes from the Lord, 6148, and 'David' the Lord in respect of Divine Truth, the source of faith, intelligence, and wisdom, 1888.
