1 τάδε λέγει κύριος θεός πύλη ἡ ἐν τῇ αὐλῇ τῇ ἐσωτέρᾳ ἡ βλέπουσα πρὸς ἀνατολὰς ἔσται κεκλεισμένη ἓξ ἡμέρας τὰς ἐνεργούς ἐν δὲ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῶν σαββάτων ἀνοιχθήσεται καὶ ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῆς νουμηνίας ἀνοιχθήσεται

2 καὶ εἰσελεύσεται ὁ ἀφηγούμενος κατὰ τὴν ὁδὸν τοῦ αιλαμ τῆς πύλης τῆς ἔξωθεν καὶ στήσεται ἐπὶ τὰ πρόθυρα τῆς πύλης καὶ ποιήσουσιν οἱ ἱερεῖς τὰ ὁλοκαυτώματα αὐτοῦ καὶ τὰ τοῦ σωτηρίου αὐτοῦ καὶ προσκυνήσει ἐπὶ τοῦ προθύρου τῆς πύλης καὶ ἐξελεύσεται καὶ ἡ πύλη οὐ μὴ κλεισθῇ ἕως ἑσπέρας

3 καὶ προσκυνήσει ὁ λαὸς τῆς γῆς κατὰ τὰ πρόθυρα τῆς πύλης ἐκείνης ἐν τοῖς σαββάτοις καὶ ἐν ταῖς νουμηνίαις ἐναντίον κυρίου

4 καὶ τὰ ὁλοκαυτώματα προσοίσει ὁ ἀφηγούμενος τῷ κυρίῳ ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῶν σαββάτων ἓξ ἀμνοὺς ἀμώμους καὶ κριὸν ἄμωμον

5 καὶ μαναα πέμμα τῷ κριῷ καὶ τοῖς ἀμνοῖς θυσίαν δόμα χειρὸς αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐλαίου τὸ ιν τῷ πέμματι

6 καὶ ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῆς νουμηνίας μόσχον ἄμωμον καὶ ἓξ ἀμνούς καὶ κριὸς ἄμωμος ἔσται

7 καὶ πέμμα τῷ κριῷ καὶ πέμμα τῷ μόσχῳ ἔσται μαναα καὶ τοῖς ἀμνοῖς καθὼς ἐὰν ἐκποιῇ ἡ χεὶρ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐλαίου τὸ ιν τῷ πέμματι

8 καὶ ἐν τῷ εἰσπορεύεσθαι τὸν ἀφηγούμενον κατὰ τὴν ὁδὸν τοῦ αιλαμ τῆς πύλης εἰσελεύσεται καὶ κατὰ τὴν ὁδὸν τῆς πύλης ἐξελεύσεται

9 καὶ ὅταν εἰσπορεύηται ὁ λαὸς τῆς γῆς ἐναντίον κυρίου ἐν ταῖς ἑορταῖς ὁ εἰσπορευόμενος κατὰ τὴν ὁδὸν τῆς πύλης τῆς πρὸς βορρᾶν προσκυνεῖν ἐξελεύσεται κατὰ τὴν ὁδὸν τῆς πύλης τῆς πρὸς νότον καὶ ὁ εἰσπορευόμενος κατὰ τὴν ὁδὸν τῆς πύλης τῆς πρὸς νότον ἐξελεύσεται κατὰ τὴν ὁδὸν τῆς πύλης τῆς πρὸς βορρᾶν οὐκ ἀναστρέψει κατὰ τὴν πύλην ἣν εἰσελήλυθεν ἀλλ' ἢ κατ' εὐθὺ αὐτῆς ἐξελεύσεται

10 καὶ ὁ ἀφηγούμενος ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῶν ἐν τῷ εἰσπορεύεσθαι αὐτοὺς εἰσελεύσεται μετ' αὐτῶν καὶ ἐν τῷ ἐκπορεύεσθαι αὐτοὺς ἐξελεύσεται

11 καὶ ἐν ταῖς ἑορταῖς καὶ ἐν ταῖς πανηγύρεσιν ἔσται τὸ μαναα πέμμα τῷ μόσχῳ καὶ πέμμα τῷ κριῷ καὶ τοῖς ἀμνοῖς καθὼς ἂν ἐκποιῇ ἡ χεὶρ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐλαίου τὸ ιν τῷ πέμματι

12 ἐὰν δὲ ποιήσῃ ὁ ἀφηγούμενος ὁμολογίαν ὁλοκαύτωμα σωτηρίου τῷ κυρίῳ καὶ ἀνοίξει ἑαυτῷ τὴν πύλην τὴν βλέπουσαν κατ' ἀνατολὰς καὶ ποιήσει τὸ ὁλοκαύτωμα αὐτοῦ καὶ τὰ τοῦ σωτηρίου αὐτοῦ ὃν τρόπον ποιεῖ ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῶν σαββάτων καὶ ἐξελεύσεται καὶ κλείσει τὰς θύρας μετὰ τὸ ἐξελθεῖν αὐτόν

13 καὶ ἀμνὸν ἐνιαύσιον ἄμωμον ποιήσει εἰς ὁλοκαύτωμα καθ' ἡμέραν τῷ κυρίῳ πρωὶ ποιήσει αὐτόν

14 καὶ μαναα ποιήσει ἐπ' αὐτῷ τὸ πρωὶ ἕκτον τοῦ μέτρου καὶ ἐλαίου τὸ τρίτον τοῦ ιν τοῦ ἀναμεῖξαι τὴν σεμίδαλιν μαναα τῷ κυρίῳ πρόσταγμα διὰ παντός

15 ποιήσετε τὸν ἀμνὸν καὶ τὸ μαναα καὶ τὸ ἔλαιον ποιήσετε τὸ πρωὶ ὁλοκαύτωμα διὰ παντός

16 τάδε λέγει κύριος θεός ἐὰν δῷ ὁ ἀφηγούμενος δόμα ἑνὶ ἐκ τῶν υἱῶν αὐτοῦ ἐκ τῆς κληρονομίας αὐτοῦ τοῦτο τοῖς υἱοῖς αὐτοῦ ἔσται κατάσχεσις ἐν κληρονομίᾳ

17 ἐὰν δὲ δῷ δόμα ἑνὶ τῶν παίδων αὐτοῦ καὶ ἔσται αὐτῷ ἕως τοῦ ἔτους τῆς ἀφέσεως καὶ ἀποδώσει τῷ ἀφηγουμένῳ πλὴν τῆς κληρονομίας τῶν υἱῶν αὐτοῦ αὐτοῖς ἔσται

18 καὶ οὐ μὴ λάβῃ ὁ ἀφηγούμενος ἐκ τῆς κληρονομίας τοῦ λαοῦ καταδυναστεῦσαι αὐτούς ἐκ τῆς κατασχέσεως αὐτοῦ κατακληρονομήσει τοῖς υἱοῖς αὐτοῦ ὅπως μὴ διασκορπίζηται ὁ λαός μου ἕκαστος ἐκ τῆς κατασχέσεως αὐτοῦ

19 καὶ εἰσήγαγέν με εἰς τὴν εἴσοδον τῆς κατὰ νώτου τῆς πύλης εἰς τὴν ἐξέδραν τῶν ἁγίων τῶν ἱερέων τὴν βλέπουσαν πρὸς βορρᾶν καὶ ἰδοὺ τόπος ἐκεῖ κεχωρισμένος

20 καὶ εἶπεν πρός με οὗτος ὁ τόπος ἐστίν οὗ ἑψήσουσιν ἐκεῖ οἱ ἱερεῖς τὰ ὑπὲρ ἀγνοίας καὶ τὰ ὑπὲρ ἁμαρτίας καὶ ἐκεῖ πέψουσι τὸ μαναα τὸ παράπαν τοῦ μὴ ἐκφέρειν εἰς τὴν αὐλὴν τὴν ἐξωτέραν τοῦ ἁγιάζειν τὸν λαόν

21 καὶ ἐξήγαγέν με εἰς τὴν αὐλὴν τὴν ἐξωτέραν καὶ περιήγαγέν με ἐπὶ τὰ τέσσαρα μέρη τῆς αὐλῆς καὶ ἰδοὺ αὐλὴ κατὰ τὸ κλίτος τῆς αὐλῆς αὐλὴ κατὰ τὸ κλίτος τῆς αὐλῆς

22 ἐπὶ τὰ τέσσαρα κλίτη τῆς αὐλῆς αὐλὴ μικρά μῆκος πηχῶν τεσσαράκοντα καὶ εὖρος πηχῶν τριάκοντα μέτρον ἓν ταῖς τέσσαρσιν

23 καὶ ἐξέδραι κύκλῳ ἐν αὐταῖς κύκλῳ ταῖς τέσσαρσιν καὶ μαγειρεῖα γεγονότα ὑποκάτω τῶν ἐξεδρῶν κύκλῳ

24 καὶ εἶπεν πρός με οὗτοι οἱ οἶκοι τῶν μαγειρείων οὗ ἑψήσουσιν ἐκεῖ οἱ λειτουργοῦντες τῷ οἴκῳ τὰ θύματα τοῦ λαοῦ

8540. 'And an omer is the tenth part of an ephah' means the amount of good then. This is clear from the meaning of 'an omer', in that it was the tenth part of an ephah, as the sufficient amount, for 'ten' means that which is complete, 3107, so that 'the tenth part' means the sufficient amount, 8468; and from the meaning of 'an ephah' as good. The reason why 'an ephah' means good is that the ephah and the homer were used to measure dry commodities that served as food, such as wheat, barley, or fine flour; and things that serve as food mean forms of good. And the bath and the hin were used to measure liquid commodities that served as drink; therefore these latter measures mean truths. The container takes its meaning from it contents.

[2] The fact that 'an ephah' was used as a measure is evident from the following places: In Moses,

You shall have a just ephah, and a just hin. Leviticus 19:36.

In Ezekiel,

You shall have just balances, and a just ephah, and a just bath. Ezekiel 45:10.

In the same prophet, The ephah and the bath shall be of one measure, for the ephah is a tenth of a homer. Ezekiel 44:11.

A like use of it as a measure occurs in Amos 8:5.

[3] The meaning of 'an ephah' as good is evident from places where the minchah is referred to; the amount of flour or fine flour for it is measured by the ephah, for example at Leviticus 5:11; Numbers 5:15; 28:5; Ezekiel 45:24; 26:7, 11. And 'minchah' too means good, 4581. That meaning is also evident from the following in Zechariah,

The angel talking to me said to me, Lift your eyes now; what is this going out? And I said, What is this? He said, This is an ephah going out. He said further, This is their eye in all the earth. And behold, a talent of lead was lifted up, and at the same time a woman 1 sitting in the middle of the ephah. Then he said, She is wickedness. 2 And he threw her down into the middle of the ephah, and threw a stone of lead 3 over the mouth of it. And I raised my eyes and saw, and behold, two women going out, and the wind was in their wings. Each had two wings like the wings of a stork, and they lifted up the ephah between earth and heaven. And I said to the angel talking to me, Where are they taking away the ephah? And he said to me, To build her a house in the land of Shinar; and she will be prepared and will remain there on her seat. Zechariah 5:5-11.

[4] No one can ever know what all this means except from the internal sense. He will never know unless he knows from that sense what 'an ephah' means, and what 'the woman in the middle of it', 'the stone of lead over the mouth of the ephah', and also 'Shinar' mean. Once these particular meanings have been brought to the surface it is plain that the profanation existing in the Church at that time is meant. For 'an ephah' means good; 'the woman' means wickedness or evil, as it is explicitly stated there; and 'a stone of lead' means falsity arising from evil which shuts it away, 'a stone' being outward truth, and therefore in the contrary sense falsity, 643, 1298, 3720, 6426, and 'lead' evil, 8298. So it is that the woman in the middle of the ephah, over the mouth of which a stone of lead was placed, means evil shut up in good by falsity, which is the same thing as profanation. For profanation is evil joined to good, 6348. The two women lifting up the ephah between earth and heaven are Churches, 252, 253, by which the profanation was banished. 'Shinar', to which the woman in the ephah was taken away, is external worship that has profanity within it, 1183, 1292
