1 主はモーセに言われた、

2 「見よ、わたしはユダの部族に属するホルの子なるウリの子ベザレルを名ざして召し、

3 これに神の霊を満たして、知恵と悟りと知識と諸種の工作に長ぜしめ、

4 工夫を凝らして金、銀、青銅の細工をさせ、

5 また宝石を切りはめ、木を彫刻するなど、諸種の工作をさせるであろう。

6 見よ、わたしはまたダンの部族に属するアヒサマクの子アホリアブを彼と共ならせ、そしてすべて賢い者の心に知恵を授け、わたしがあなたに命じたものを、ことごとく彼らに造らせるであろう。

7 すなわち会見の幕屋、あかしの箱、その上にある贖罪所、幕屋のもろもろの器、

8 机とその器、純金の燭台と、そのもろもろの器、香の祭壇、

9 燔祭の祭壇とそのもろもろの器、洗盤とその台、

10 編物の服、すなわち祭司の務をするための祭司アロンの聖なる服、およびその子たちの服、

11 注ぎ油、聖所のための香ばしい香などを、すべてわたしがあなたに命じたように造らせるであろう」。

12 主はまたモーセに言われた、

13 「あなたはイスラエルの人々に言いなさい、『あなたがたは必ずわたしの安息日を守らなければならない。これはわたしとあなたがたとの間の、代々にわたるしるしであって、わたしがあなたがたを聖別する主であることを、知らせるためのものである。

14 それゆえ、あなたがたは安息日を守らなければならない。これはあなたがたに聖なる日である。すべてこれを汚す者は必ず殺され、すべてこの日に仕事をする者は、民のうちから断たれるであろう。

15 六日のあいだは仕事をしなさい。七日目は全き休みの安息日で、主のために聖である。すべて安息日に仕事をする者は必ず殺されるであろう。

16 ゆえに、イスラエルの人々は安息日を覚え、永遠の契約として、代々安息日を守らなければならない。

17 これは永遠にわたしとイスラエルの人々との間のしるしである。それは主が六日のあいだに天地を造り、七日目に休み、かつ、いこわれたからである』」。

18 主はシナイ山でモーセに語り終えられたとき、あかしの板二枚、すなわち神が指をもって書かれた石の板をモーセに授けられた。

Apocalypse Revealed # 555

555. "And they overcame it by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony." (12:11) This symbolizes victory gained by the Divine truth of the Word and thus by an acknowledgment that the Lord is God of heaven and earth and that the Ten Commandments are commandments for life in accordance with which a person should live.

It may be seen in no. 379 above that the blood of the Lamb is the Divine truth emanating from the Lord, which is the Divine truth of the Word; in nos. 6, 16 above, that the testimony is Divine truth; and in nos. 490, 506, that it is in particular these two tenets, that the Lord is God of heaven and earth, and that the Ten Commandments are commandments to be lived. The Ten Commandments are also accordingly called the testimony in Exodus 25:22; 31:7, 18; 32:15, Leviticus 16:13, Numbers 17:4, Psalms 78:5; 132:12.

People caught up in faith alone today believe that the blood of the Lamb refers to the Lord's suffering of the cross, principally because they make the Lord's suffering of the cross the chief tenet of their dogma, saying that by this He took upon Himself the condemnation of the Law, made satisfaction to the Father, and reconciled to Him the human race, and so on.

But that is not the case. Rather the Lord came into the world to conquer the hells and glorify His humanity, and His suffering of the cross was the last battle by which He completely overcame the hells and completely glorified His humanity, as may be seen in The Doctrine of the New Jerusalem Regarding the Lord, nos. 12-14.

Consequently it can be seen that the blood of the Lamb does not mean here the suffering of the cross as maintained by current dogma.

That the blood of the Lamb means the Divine truth emanating from the Lord, which is the Divine truth of the Word, can be seen from the fact that the Lord embodies the Word, and that because He embodies the Word, the Divine truth in it is His blood, and the Divine goodness in it His body.

This may be clearly shown by asking whether everyone does not embody his own goodness and his own truth. And because goodness is a matter of the will, and truth a matter of the intellect, whether everyone does not embody his own will and his own intellect. What else constitutes the person? Is not a person in essence these two entities? The Lord, however, is goodness itself and truth itself, or Divine good and Divine truth, and these two also constitute the Word.
