1 καὶ ἤγαγέν με ἐπὶ τὴν πύλην τὴν βλέπουσαν κατὰ ἀνατολὰς καὶ ἐξήγαγέν με

2 καὶ ἰδοὺ δόξα θεοῦ ισραηλ ἤρχετο κατὰ τὴν ὁδὸν τῆς πύλης τῆς βλεπούσης πρὸς ἀνατολάς καὶ φωνὴ τῆς παρεμβολῆς ὡς φωνὴ διπλασιαζόντων πολλῶν καὶ ἡ γῆ ἐξέλαμπεν ὡς φέγγος ἀπὸ τῆς δόξης κυκλόθεν

3 καὶ ἡ ὅρασις ἣν εἶδον κατὰ τὴν ὅρασιν ἣν εἶδον ὅτε εἰσεπορευόμην τοῦ χρῖσαι τὴν πόλιν καὶ ἡ ὅρασις τοῦ ἅρματος οὗ εἶδον κατὰ τὴν ὅρασιν ἣν εἶδον ἐπὶ τοῦ ποταμοῦ τοῦ χοβαρ καὶ πίπτω ἐπὶ πρόσωπόν μου

4 καὶ δόξα κυρίου εἰσῆλθεν εἰς τὸν οἶκον κατὰ τὴν ὁδὸν τῆς πύλης τῆς βλεπούσης κατὰ ἀνατολάς

5 καὶ ἀνέλαβέν με πνεῦμα καὶ εἰσήγαγέν με εἰς τὴν αὐλὴν τὴν ἐσωτέραν καὶ ἰδοὺ πλήρης δόξης κυρίου ὁ οἶκος

6 καὶ ἔστην καὶ ἰδοὺ φωνὴ ἐκ τοῦ οἴκου λαλοῦντος πρός με καὶ ὁ ἀνὴρ εἱστήκει ἐχόμενός μου

7 καὶ εἶπεν πρός με ἑώρακας υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου τὸν τόπον τοῦ θρόνου μου καὶ τὸν τόπον τοῦ ἴχνους τῶν ποδῶν μου ἐν οἷς κατασκηνώσει τὸ ὄνομά μου ἐν μέσῳ οἴκου ισραηλ τὸν αἰῶνα καὶ οὐ βεβηλώσουσιν οὐκέτι οἶκος ισραηλ τὸ ὄνομα τὸ ἅγιόν μου αὐτοὶ καὶ οἱ ἡγούμενοι αὐτῶν ἐν τῇ πορνείᾳ αὐτῶν καὶ ἐν τοῖς φόνοις τῶν ἡγουμένων ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῶν

8 ἐν τῷ τιθέναι αὐτοὺς τὸ πρόθυρόν μου ἐν τοῖς προθύροις αὐτῶν καὶ τὰς φλιάς μου ἐχομένας τῶν φλιῶν αὐτῶν καὶ ἔδωκαν τὸν τοῖχόν μου ὡς συνεχόμενον ἐμοῦ καὶ αὐτῶν καὶ ἐβεβήλωσαν τὸ ὄνομα τὸ ἅγιόν μου ἐν ταῖς ἀνομίαις αὐτῶν αἷς ἐποίουν καὶ ἐξέτριψα αὐτοὺς ἐν θυμῷ μου καὶ ἐν φόνῳ

9 καὶ νῦν ἀπωσάσθωσαν τὴν πορνείαν αὐτῶν καὶ τοὺς φόνους τῶν ἡγουμένων αὐτῶν ἀπ' ἐμοῦ καὶ κατασκηνώσω ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῶν τὸν αἰῶνα

10 καὶ σύ υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου δεῖξον τῷ οἴκῳ ισραηλ τὸν οἶκον καὶ κοπάσουσιν ἀπὸ τῶν ἁμαρτιῶν αὐτῶν καὶ τὴν ὅρασιν αὐτοῦ καὶ τὴν διάταξιν αὐτοῦ

11 καὶ αὐτοὶ λήμψονται τὴν κόλασιν αὐτῶν περὶ πάντων ὧν ἐποίησαν καὶ διαγράψεις τὸν οἶκον καὶ τὰς ἐξόδους αὐτοῦ καὶ τὴν ὑπόστασιν αὐτοῦ καὶ πάντα τὰ προστάγματα αὐτοῦ καὶ πάντα τὰ νόμιμα αὐτοῦ γνωριεῖς αὐτοῖς καὶ διαγράψεις ἐναντίον αὐτῶν καὶ φυλάξονται πάντα τὰ δικαιώματά μου καὶ πάντα τὰ προστάγματά μου καὶ ποιήσουσιν αὐτά

12 καὶ τὴν διαγραφὴν τοῦ οἴκου ἐπὶ τῆς κορυφῆς τοῦ ὄρους πάντα τὰ ὅρια αὐτοῦ κυκλόθεν ἅγια ἁγίων

13 καὶ ταῦτα τὰ μέτρα τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου ἐν πήχει τοῦ πήχεος καὶ παλαιστῆς κόλπωμα βάθος ἐπὶ πῆχυν καὶ πῆχυς τὸ εὖρος καὶ γεῖσος ἐπὶ τὸ χεῖλος αὐτοῦ κυκλόθεν σπιθαμῆς καὶ τοῦτο τὸ ὕψος τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου

14 ἐκ βάθους τῆς ἀρχῆς τοῦ κοιλώματος αὐτοῦ πρὸς τὸ ἱλαστήριον τὸ μέγα τὸ ὑποκάτωθεν πηχῶν δύο καὶ τὸ εὖρος πήχεος καὶ ἀπὸ τοῦ ἱλαστηρίου τοῦ μικροῦ ἐπὶ τὸ ἱλαστήριον τὸ μέγα πήχεις τέσσαρες καὶ εὖρος πῆχυς

15 καὶ τὸ αριηλ πηχῶν τεσσάρων καὶ ἀπὸ τοῦ αριηλ καὶ ὑπεράνω τῶν κεράτων πῆχυς

16 καὶ τὸ αριηλ πηχῶν δώδεκα μήκους ἐπὶ πήχεις δώδεκα πλάτους τετράγωνον ἐπὶ τὰ τέσσαρα μέρη αὐτοῦ

17 καὶ τὸ ἱλαστῆριον πηχῶν δέκα τεσσάρων τὸ μῆκος ἐπὶ πήχεις δέκα τέσσαρας τὸ εὖρος ἐπὶ τέσσαρα μέρη αὐτοῦ καὶ τὸ γεῖσος αὐτῷ κυκλόθεν κυκλούμενον αὐτῷ ἥμισυ πήχεος καὶ τὸ κύκλωμα αὐτοῦ πῆχυς κυκλόθεν καὶ οἱ κλιμακτῆρες αὐτοῦ βλέποντες κατ' ἀνατολάς

18 καὶ εἶπεν πρός με υἱὲ ἀνθρώπου τάδε λέγει κύριος ὁ θεὸς ισραηλ ταῦτα τὰ προστάγματα τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου ἐν ἡμέρᾳ ποιήσεως αὐτοῦ τοῦ ἀναφέρειν ἐπ' αὐτοῦ ὁλοκαυτώματα καὶ προσχέειν πρὸς αὐτὸ αἷμα

19 καὶ δώσεις τοῖς ἱερεῦσι τοῖς λευίταις τοῖς ἐκ τοῦ σπέρματος σαδδουκ τοῖς ἐγγίζουσι πρός με λέγει κύριος ὁ θεός τοῦ λειτουργεῖν μοι μόσχον ἐκ βοῶν περὶ ἁμαρτίας

20 καὶ λήμψονται ἐκ τοῦ αἵματος αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐπιθήσουσιν ἐπὶ τὰ τέσσαρα κέρατα τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου καὶ ἐπὶ τὰς τέσσαρας γωνίας τοῦ ἱλαστηρίου καὶ ἐπὶ τὴν βάσιν κύκλῳ καὶ ἐξιλάσονται αὐτό

21 καὶ λήμψονται τὸν μόσχον τὸν περὶ ἁμαρτίας καὶ κατακαυθήσεται ἐν τῷ ἀποκεχωρισμένῳ τοῦ οἴκου ἔξωθεν τῶν ἁγίων

22 καὶ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ δευτέρᾳ λήμψονται ἐρίφους δύο αἰγῶν ἀμώμους ὑπὲρ ἁμαρτίας καὶ ἐξιλάσονται τὸ θυσιαστήριον καθότι ἐξιλάσαντο ἐν τῷ μόσχῳ

23 καὶ μετὰ τὸ συντελέσαι σε τὸν ἐξιλασμὸν προσοίσουσι μόσχον ἐκ βοῶν ἄμωμον καὶ κριὸν ἐκ προβάτων ἄμωμον

24 καὶ προσοίσετε ἐναντίον κυρίου καὶ ἐπιρρίψουσιν οἱ ἱερεῖς ἐπ' αὐτὰ ἅλα καὶ ἀνοίσουσιν αὐτὰ ὁλοκαυτώματα τῷ κυρίῳ

25 ἑπτὰ ἡμέρας ποιήσεις ἔριφον ὑπὲρ ἁμαρτίας καθ' ἡμέραν καὶ μόσχον ἐκ βοῶν καὶ κριὸν ἐκ προβάτων ἄμωμα ποιήσουσιν

26 ἑπτὰ ἡμέρας καὶ ἐξιλάσονται τὸ θυσιαστήριον καὶ καθαριοῦσιν αὐτὸ καὶ πλήσουσιν χεῖρας αὐτῶν

27 καὶ ἔσται ἀπὸ τῆς ἡμέρας τῆς ὀγδόης καὶ ἐπέκεινα ποιήσουσιν οἱ ἱερεῖς ἐπὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον τὰ ὁλοκαυτώματα ὑμῶν καὶ τὰ τοῦ σωτηρίου ὑμῶν καὶ προσδέξομαι ὑμᾶς λέγει κύριος

10253. 'Five hundred [shekels]' means what is complete. This is clear from the meaning of the number 'five hundred' as what is complete. The reason why 'five hundred' has this meaning is that this number is the product of five multiplied by ten tens, or fives times a hundred; and 'five' means much, as do 'ten' and 'a hundred', and therefore 'five hundred' means what is complete.

'Five' means much, see 5708, 5956, 9102, as likewise does 'ten', 3107, 4638, and also 'a hundred', 4400, 6582, 6594.

All numbers in the Word mean spiritual realities, see in the places referred to in 9488.

Compound numbers have a similar meaning to the simple ones that give rise to them through multiplication, 5291, 5335, 5708, 7973.

[2] The fact that numbers mean spiritual realities is perfectly clear in Ezekiel, where the house of God, together with everything there inside and outside, and also the new earth or land, are measured and are described by numbers pertaining to measure, in Chapters 40-48. By the new land there the Church should be understood, and by the house of God its holiness. The same is so in John, in the Book of Revelation, where also a new Jerusalem is described by the numbers where measurements are given, by which too a new Church should be understood. Unless the numbers had meant spiritual realities all those measurements would have been pointless.

[3] 'Five hundred' means the whole from one end to the other, thus what is complete. This is clear from those chapters in Ezekiel,

He measured outside the house (or the temple), to the east quarter five hundred rods round about, to the north quarter five hundred rods round about, to the south quarter five hundred rods, and to the west quarter 1 five hundred rods. Its wall round about, the length was five hundred rods, and the breadth five hundred rods, to distinguish between the holy and the profane. Ezekiel 42:15-20.

From these words it is evident that 'five hundred' means the whole in its entirety, or everything holy from one end to the other, thus what is complete; for it says that the wall, which - according to this account of its length and breadth - formed a square, served to distinguish the holy from the profane.

[4] 'Five hundred' also means much, while a tenth of that number or fifty means some. This is clear from the Lord's words addressed to Simon, in Luke,

Jesus said, There were two debtors who had a certain creditor. One owed five hundred denarii, but the other fifty. When they did not have [anything with which] to repay, he forgave them both. Which of the two loves him more? Simon answered, The one to whom he forgave more. Jesus said, So have the many sins of the woman been forgiven, because she loved much. But to whom little is forgiven, [that person] loves little. Luke 7:41-end.

The reason why the Lord used those numbers was that they meant much and some; for He spoke from a Divine [perspective], thus used words carrying a spiritual meaning, in accord with correspondences. The same is so everywhere else, as when He spoke about the virgins, of whom - He said - there were ten, and that five were wise and five were foolish. He spoke of ten because that number means all, that is to say, all who belong to the Church, and of five because this number means some, see 4637, 4638.
