1 καὶ ἐγένετο ᾗ ἡμέρᾳ συνετέλεσεν μωυσῆς ὥστε ἀναστῆσαι τὴν σκηνὴν καὶ ἔχρισεν αὐτὴν καὶ ἡγίασεν αὐτὴν καὶ πάντα τὰ σκεύη αὐτῆς καὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον καὶ πάντα τὰ σκεύη αὐτοῦ καὶ ἔχρισεν αὐτὰ καὶ ἡγίασεν αὐτά

2 καὶ προσήνεγκαν οἱ ἄρχοντες ισραηλ δώδεκα ἄρχοντες οἴκων πατριῶν αὐτῶν οὗτοι ἄρχοντες φυλῶν οὗτοι οἱ παρεστηκότες ἐπὶ τῆς ἐπισκοπῆς

3 καὶ ἤνεγκαν τὰ δῶρα αὐτῶν ἔναντι κυρίου ἓξ ἁμάξας λαμπηνικὰς καὶ δώδεκα βόας ἅμαξαν παρὰ δύο ἀρχόντων καὶ μόσχον παρὰ ἑκάστου καὶ προσήγαγον ἐναντίον τῆς σκηνῆς

4 καὶ εἶπεν κύριος πρὸς μωυσῆν λέγων

5 λαβὲ παρ' αὐτῶν καὶ ἔσονται πρὸς τὰ ἔργα τὰ λειτουργικὰ τῆς σκηνῆς τοῦ μαρτυρίου καὶ δώσεις αὐτὰ τοῖς λευίταις ἑκάστῳ κατὰ τὴν αὐτοῦ λειτουργίαν

6 καὶ λαβὼν μωυσῆς τὰς ἁμάξας καὶ τοὺς βόας ἔδωκεν αὐτὰ τοῖς λευίταις

7 τὰς δύο ἁμάξας καὶ τοὺς τέσσαρας βόας ἔδωκεν τοῖς υἱοῖς γεδσων κατὰ τὰς λειτουργίας αὐτῶν

8 καὶ τὰς τέσσαρας ἁμάξας καὶ τοὺς ὀκτὼ βόας ἔδωκεν τοῖς υἱοῖς μεραρι κατὰ τὰς λειτουργίας αὐτῶν διὰ ιθαμαρ υἱοῦ ααρων τοῦ ἱερέως

9 καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς κααθ οὐκ ἔδωκεν ὅτι τὰ λειτουργήματα τοῦ ἁγίου ἔχουσιν ἐπ' ὤμων ἀροῦσιν

10 καὶ προσήνεγκαν οἱ ἄρχοντες εἰς τὸν ἐγκαινισμὸν τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ᾗ ἔχρισεν αὐτό καὶ προσήνεγκαν οἱ ἄρχοντες τὰ δῶρα αὐτῶν ἀπέναντι τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου

11 καὶ εἶπεν κύριος πρὸς μωυσῆν ἄρχων εἷς καθ' ἡμέραν ἄρχων καθ' ἡμέραν προσοίσουσιν τὰ δῶρα αὐτῶν εἰς τὸν ἐγκαινισμὸν τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου

260. It should furthermore be known that the literal sense is a protection to prevent the genuine truths hidden within being harmed. It acts as a protection because that sense can be twisted in different directions and explained as it is understood, without its internal being harmed or violated. For it does no harm for the literal sense to be understood differently by different people; but harm is done, if a person introduces falsities which are in opposition to the Divine truths, and this is only done by those who have convinced themselves of false ideas. This is what does violence to the Word. The literal sense acts as a protection to prevent this happening, and this occurs with those whose religion has given them false ideas, but who have not convinced themselves of these falsities. The literal sense of the Word acting as a protection is what is meant by cherubim in the Word, and it is there described by them. This protection is meant by the cherubim which were placed at the entrance to the garden of Eden after Adam and his wife were expelled from it. We read of these:

When Jehovah God had cast out the man, He made cherubim to dwell on the east of the garden of Eden, and the flame of a sword turning this way and that, to guard the way to the tree of life, Genesis 3:23-24.

[2] No one can know what this means, unless he knows the meaning of cherubim, of the garden of Eden and the tree of life in it; and also of the flame of a sword turning this way and that. These details have been explained in the section dealing with this chapter in ARCANA CAELESTIA, published in London. This shows that cherubim mean protection, the way to the tree of life means the approach to the Lord, which people make by means of the truths of the spiritual sense of the Word; the flame of a sword turning means Divine truth at the outermost level, which resembles the Word in its literal sense, in being capable of being twisted like this. The meaning of the cherubim made of gold placed on the two ends of the mercy-seat, which was above the ark in the tabernacle (Exodus 25:18-21), is similar. The ark meant the Word, because the Ten Commandments contained in it were the rudiments of the Word; the cherubim there meant protection, which is why the Lord spoke with Moses from between them (Exodus 25:22; 37:9; Numbers 7:89). He spoke in the natural sense, for He does not speak with man except in fulness, and in the literal sense Divine truth is in its fulness (214-224 above). Nor was anything else meant by the cherubim on the hangings of the tabernacle and on the veil (Exodus 26:1, 31). For the hangings and veils of the tabernacle meant the outermost of heaven and the church, and so also of the Word (220 above). Likewise the cherubim carved on the walls and the doors of the temple at Jerusalem (1 Kings 6:29, 32, 35; 221 above); and equally the cherubim in the new temple (Ezekiel 41:18-20).

[3] Since cherubim meant protection to prevent the Lord, heaven and Divine truth as it is inwardly in the Word, being directly approached, but only indirectly through the outermost, this is why it is said of the king of Tyre:

You who set the seal on your measured space, full of wisdom and perfect in beauty, you were in Eden the garden. Every kind of precious stone was your covering. You, cherub, were the expanse of the covering. I have destroyed you, cherub who cover, in the midst of the stones of fire, Ezekiel 28:12-14, 16.

Tyre means the church as regards its knowledge of truth and good, and so the king of Tyre means the Word, which is the place and source of that knowledge. It is obvious that in this passage the king means the Word at the outermost level, and cherub means protection, for it says 'You who set the seal on your measured space; every kind of precious stone was your covering; you, cherub, were the expanse of the covering' as well as 'cherub who cover'. The precious stones which are also named there mean the contents of the literal sense (217-218 above).

Because cherubim mean the Word at the outermost level and also its protection, it is said in the Psalms of David:

Jehovah tilted the heavens and came down, and rode upon a cherub, Psalms 18:9-10.

Shepherd of Israel, who sits upon the cherubim, shine forth, Psalms 80:1. Jehovah that sits upon the cherubim, Psalms 99:1.

Riding on the cherubim or sitting on them means the outermost sense of the Word. The Divine truth in the Word and its nature are described by the four creatures, which are also called cherubim (in Ezekiel, chapters 1, 9-10); and also by the four creatures in the midst of the throne and beside the throne (Revelation 4:6ff). (See Apocalypse Revealed published by me at Amsterdam, 239, 275, 3-14.)
