1 И возьми къ себј Аарона брата своего, и сыновъ его съ нимъ, отъ среды сыновъ Израилевыхъ, чтобы поставили ихъ во священники мнј: Аарона, Надава, и Авіуда, Елеазара и Иѕамара, сыновъ Аароновыхъ.

2 И сдјлай священныя одежды Аарону брату твоему для славы и красоты.

3 Что касается до тебя, поговори со всјми мудрыми сердцемъ, которыхъ Я исполнилъ духомъ премудрости, чтобъ они сдјлали Аарону одежды, для посвященія его во священники Мнј.

4 Вотъ одежды, которыя должны они сдјлать: наперсникъ и ефодъ, и верхняя риза, и хитонъ стяжной, кидаръ и поясъ. Итакъ пусть сдјлаютъ священныя одежды Аарону брату твоему, и сынамъ его, для поставленія во священники Мнј.

5 Пусть они возмутъ золота, пряжи яхонтоваго, и пурпуроваго и червленнаго цвјта, и виссона.

6 И сдјлаютъ ефодъ изъ золота, изъ пряжи яхонтоваго, пурпуроваго и червленнаго цвјта, и изъ крученаго впссона, искусною работою.

7 У него должны быть на обоихъ краяхъ его два нарамника связывающіе, чтобъ онъ былъ связанъ.

8 И поясъ ефода, который поверхъ его, одинаковой съ нимъ работы долженъ быть изъ золота, изъ пряжи яхонтоваго, и пурпуроваго и червленнаго цвјта, и крученаго виссона.

9 И возьми два камня оникса, и вырјжь на нихъ имена сыновъ Израилевыхъ.

10 Шесть именъ ихъ на одномъ камнј, и Шесть именъ остальныхъ на другомъ камнј, по порядку рожденія ихъ.

11 Работою вырјзывающаго на камнј, какъ вырјзываютъ печать, вырјжь на двухъ камняхъ имена сыновъ Израилевыхъ; и вставь оные въ золотыя гнјзда.

12 И положи два камня сіи на нарамникахъ ефода; это камни въ память сыновъ Израилевыхъ; и будетъ носить Ааронъ имена ихъ предъ Іегову на објихъ раменахъ своихъ, въ память.

13 И сдјлай гнјзда изъ золота.

14 И двј цјпочки изъ чистаго золота; сдјлай толстыя работою витою, и прикрјпи витыя цјпочки къ гнјздамъ,

15 Сдјлай наперсникъ суда искусною работою; сдјлай его такою же работою, какъ ефодъ, изъ золота, изъ пряжн яхонтоваго и пурпуроваго и червленаго цвјта, и изъ крученаго виссона сдјлай его.

16 Онъ долженъ быть четыреугольный, двойный, въ пядень длиною, и въ пядень шириною.

17 И положи иа немъ оправленные камни въ четыре ряда. Рядомъ: рубинъ, топазъ, и изумрудъ: это одинъ рядъ.

18 Во второмъ ряду: карбункулъ, сапфиръ и алмазъ.

19 Въ третьемъ ряду: яхонтъ, агатъ и аметистъ.

20 Въ четвертомъ ряду: хрисолитъ, и ониксъ и ясписъ: они должиы бытъ оправлены золотомъ въ ихъ гнјздахъ.

21 Сихъ камней, по именамъ сыновъ Израилевыхъ, должно быть двјнадцать, по именамъ ихъ; на каждомъ какъ на печати должно быть вырјзано по одному имени изъ числа двјнадцати колјнъ.

22 Къ наперснику сдјлай толстыя цјпочки витою работою изъ чистаго золота.

23 И сдјлай къ наперснику два кольца золотыхъ, и прикрјпи два кольца къ двумъ краямъ наперсника.

24 И вдјнь двј цјпочки золотыя въ два кольца по краямъ наперсника.

25 А два кольца двухъ цјпочекъ прикрјпи къ двумъ гнјздамъ, и прикрјпи къ нарамникамъ ефода съ лицевой стороны его.

26 Еще сдјлай два кольца золотыхъ и прикрјпи ихъ къ двумъ другимъ краямъ наперсника, на той сторонј, которая лежитъ къ ефоду внутръ:

27 Также сдјлай два кольца золотыхъ и прикрјпи ихъ къ двумъ нарамникамъ ефода снизу, съ лицевой стороны его, у соединенія его, надъ поясомъ ефода.

28 И прикрјпятъ наперсникъ кольцами его къ кольцамъ ефода посредствомъ шнура яхонтоваго цвјта, чтобы онъ былъ надъ поясомъ ефода, и чтобы не спадалъ наперсникъ съ ефода.

29 И будетъ носить Ааронъ имена сыновъ Израилевыхъ на наперсникј суда у сердца своего, входя во святилище, въ непрестанную память предъ Іеговою.

30 И возложи на наперсникъ суда уримъ и туммимъ, и будутъ они у сердца Ааронова, когда ему входить предъ лице Іеговы: и будетъ Ааронъ всегда носить судъ сыновъ Израилевыхъ у сердца своего предъ лице Іеговы.

31 И сдјлай верхнюю ризу къ ефоду всю яхонтоваго цвјта.

32 Среди ея должно быть отверстіе для головы; у отверстія ея вокругъ должна быть обшивка тканая, подобно какъ у отверстія брони, чтобы не дралось.

33 По подолу ея сдјлай гранатовыя яблоки изъ нитей яхонтоваго, пурпуроваго и червленаго цвјта, вокругъ по подолу ея, и позвонки золотые между нимп кругомъ.

34 Черезъ рядъ золотой позвонокъ и яблоко, золотой позвонокъ и яблоко по подолу верхней ризы кругомъ.

35 Она будетъ на Ааронј въ служеніи; дабы слышенъ былъ отъ него звукъ, когда онъ входитъ во святилище предъ лице Іеговы, и когда выходитъ, чтобы ему не умереть.

36 И сдјлай полированную дщицу изъ золота чистаго, и вырјжь на ней, какъ вырјзываютъ на печати: Святыня Іеговј.

37 И прикрјпи оную шнуромъ яхонтоваго цвјта къ кидару, такъ чтобы она была на передней сторонј кидара.

38 Она будетъ на челј Аароновомъ; и понесетъ на себј Ааронъ недостатки святынь, какія будутъ посвящать сыны Израилевы, и всјхъ даровъ, посвяшаемыхъ ими; она будетъ непрестанно на челј его, въ благоволеніе имъ предъ Іеговою.

39 И стяни хитонъ виссономъ; также сдјлай кидаръ изъ виссона, и сдјлай поясъ узорчатой работы.

40 Сдјлай и сынамъ Аароновымъ хитоны, сдјлай имъ поясы, сдјлай также имъ шапки для славы и красоты.

41 И облеки въ оныя Аарона брата твоего и сыновъ его съ нимъ, и помажь ихъ, и наполни руки ихъ и посвяти ихъ, и они будутъ священниками Мнј.

42 И сдјлай имъ нижнее платье льняное для прикрытія наготы тјлесной, отъ чреслъ до голеней.

43 И да будутъ оныя на Ааронј и на сынахъ его, когда имъ входить въ скинію собранія, или приступать къ жертвеннику для служенія во святилищј, чтобы имъ не навести грјха на себя, и не умереть. Это постановленіе вјчное для него и для потомковъ его по немъ.

9806. And thou shalt cause to draw near unto thee Aaron thy brother. That this signifies the conjunction of Divine truth with Divine good in the Lord’s Divine Human, is evident from the representation of Moses, who here causes Aaron to draw near to himself, as being the Lord in respect to Divine truth (see n. 6752, 6771, 7014, 9372); from the signification of “drawing near,” as being conjunction and presence (n. 9378); from the representation of Aaron, as being the Lord in respect to Divine good (of which in what follows); and from the signification of “brother,” as being good (n. 3303, 3803, 3815, 4121, 4191, 5686, 5692, 6756). From all this it is plain that by “Moses causing Aaron his brother to draw near unto him” is signified the conjunction of Divine truth with Divine good in the Lord. That it signifies in His Divine Human, is because this was the very thing in which this conjunction was effected; for the Lord first made His Human Divine truth, and afterward Divine good (see the places cited in n. 9199, 9315). That Aaron was chosen to minister in the priesthood, was because he was the brother of Moses; for in this way there was at the same time represented the brotherhood of Divine truth and Divine good in heaven, because as before said, Moses represented Divine truth, and Aaron Divine good.

[2] All things in the universe, both in heaven and in the world, bear relation to good and to truth in order to be anything; for good is the being of truth, and truth is the coming-forth of good; and therefore good without truth does not come-forth, and truth without good has no being; from which it is evident that they must be conjoined. Their conjunction is represented in the Word by two married partners, and also by two brothers; by two married partners, when the subject treated of is the heavenly marriage, which is that of good and truth, and successive derivation from it; and by two brothers, when the subject treated of is the double ministry of judgment and of worship.

Those who ministered in judgment were called “judges,” and afterward “kings;” and those who ministered in worship were called “priests.” And because all judgment is effected by means of truth, and all worship is effected from good, therefore by “judges” in the Word, in a sense abstracted from person, is signified truth from good; but by “kings,” truth from which is good; and by “priests” is signified good itself. It is from this that in the Word the Lord is called a “Judge,” also a “Prophet,” and likewise a “King,” when truth is treated of; but a “Priest” when good is treated of. In like manner He is called “the Christ,” “the Anointed,” or “the Messiah,” when truth is treated of; but “Jesus,” or “Savior,” when good is treated of.

[3] On account of this brotherhood, which is that of the truth which is of judgment and the good which is of worship, Aaron the brother of Moses was chosen to minister in the priesthood. That by “Aaron and his house” is therefore signified good, is evident in David:

O Israel, trust thou in Jehovah; He is their help and their shield. O house of Aaron, trust ye in Jehovah; He is their help and their shield. Jehovah hath remembered us, He will bless the house of Israel, He will bless the house of Aaron (Psalms 115:9-10, 12).

Let Israel now say, that His mercy is forever. Let the house of Aaron now say, that His mercy is forever (Psalms 118:2-3).

O house of Israel, bless ye Jehovah; O house of Aaron, bless ye Jehovah (Psalms 135:19).

“The house of Israel” denotes those who are in truths; “the house of Aaron,” those who are in goods; for in the Word, where truth is treated of, good is also treated of, because of the heavenly marriage (n. 9263, 9314); (that “the house of Israel” denotes those who are in truths, see n. 5414, 5879, 5951, 7956, 8234).

[4] Again;

Jehovah sent Moses His servant, Aaron whom He had chosen (Psalms 105:26); where Moses is called a “servant” because a “servant” is predicated of truths (n. 3409); and a “chosen one” is predicated of good (n. 3755). Again:

Behold how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity. It is like the good oil upon the head, that went down upon the beard, even Aaron’s beard; that went down upon the mouth of his garments (Psalms 133:1-2).

He who does not know what is signified by a “brother,” what by “oil,” what by “the head,” what by “the beard,” what by “garments,” and likewise what Aaron represents, cannot apprehend why these things are compared to the dwelling together of brethren, for how can the oil that went down from the head upon Aaron’s beard, and from thence upon his garments, be like the concord of brethren? But the likeness in the comparison is plain from the internal sense, in which the subject treated of is the influx of good into truths, and the brotherhood of these is described in this way. For “oil” denotes good; “the head of Aaron,” the inmost of good; “the beard,” the most external of it; “garments” denote truths; and “to go down” denotes influx. From this it is clear that by these words is signified the influx of good from interiors to exteriors into truths, and conjunction there. Without the internal sense, who can see that these heavenly things are contained in these words? (That “oil” denotes the good of love, see n. 886, 4582, 4638, 9780; that “the head” denotes what is inmost, n. 5328, 6436, 7859, 9656; that “the beard” denotes what is most external, is evident in Isaiah 7:20; 15:2; in Jeremiah 48:37; and in Ezekiel 5:1; that “garments” denote truths, n. 2576, 4545, 4763, 5319, 5954, 6914, 6917, 9093, 9212, 9216; and that “Aaron” denotes celestial good, may be seen above.)

[5] From the fact that Aaron was chosen to minister in the priest’s office, thus to administer the most holy things, it may be comprehended how the case was with the representations in the Jewish Church, namely, that they did not regard the person who represented, but the thing that was represented; thus that a holy thing, nay, a most holy one, could be represented by persons whose interiors were unclean, and even idolatrous, provided that while they were in worship their externals were disposed to holiness. The quality of Aaron can be seen from the following words in Moses:

Aaron took the gold from the hand of the sons of Israel, and fashioned it with a graving tool, and made it a molten calf. And Aaron built an altar before it; and Aaron made proclamation and said, Tomorrow shall be a feast to Jehovah (Exodus 32:4-5, 25).

Jehovah was moved with anger exceedingly against Aaron, to destroy him; but I prayed for Aaron also in that time (Deuteronomy 9:20).

(That the representatives of the church with the Israelitish and Jewish nation did not regard persons, but the things themselves, see the places cited in n. 9229)

6752. And she called his name Moses. That this signifies the quality of state then, is evident from the signification of a “name,” and “calling a name as being the quality (n. 144, 145, 1754, 1896, 2009, 2724, 3006, 3421, 6674); here the quality of the state, because when anyone is named, the name itself then signifies the state (see n. 1946, 2643, 3422, 4298). The quality of state which is signified, is that of the law Divine in the beginning with the Lord, and that of truth Divine in the beginning with the man who is being regenerated. Two men especially represent the Lord as to the Word, namely, Moses and Elias; Moses as to the historic books, Elias as to the prophetic. There are besides, Elisha, and lastly John the Baptist, wherefore this is he who is meant by “Elias who was to come” (Matthew 17:10-13; Luke 1:17). But before it can be shown that Moses represents the law Divine, what this is must be told. The law Divine in a wide sense signifies the whole Word; in a sense less extended the historic Word; in a close sense, what was written through Moses; and in the closest sense, the ten commandments written on the tables of stone upon Mount Sinai. Moses represents the law in the less wide sense, also in the close, and likewise in the closest sense.

[2] That “the law,” in a wide sense, is the whole Word, both historic and prophetic, is evident in John:

We have heard out of the law that the Christ [Messiah] abideth forever (John 12:34).

That by “the law” here is meant also the prophetic Word, is plain, for this is written in Isaiah 9:6-7; Psalms 110:4; and in Daniel 7:13-14. Again in John:

That the word might be fulfilled that is written in their law, They hated Me without a cause (John 15:25); where the sense is the same, for this is written in Psalms 35:19.

In Matthew:

Verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle shall not pass away from the law, till all things be done (Matthew 5:18); where “law” in the wide sense denotes the whole Word.

[3] That “the law” in a sense less wide is the historic Word, is evident in these passages:

All things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them; for this is the law and the prophets (Matthew 7:12);

here the Word is distinguished into the law and the prophets, and because the Word is distinguished into the historic and prophetic, it follows that by “the law” is meant the historic Word, and by “the prophets” the prophetic Word.

On these two commandments hang the law and the prophets (Matthew 22:40).

The law and the prophets were until John: from that time the kingdom of God is evangelized (Luke 16:16; Matthew 11:13).

[4] That “the law” in a close sense is the Word that was written through Moses, is evident in these passages:

When Moses had made an end of writing the words of this law upon a book, even until he had completed them, Moses commanded the Levites who bare the ark of Jehovah, saying, Take the book of this law, and put it by the side of the ark of the covenant of Jehovah your God (Deuteronomy 31:24-26);

“the book of the law” denotes the books of Moses.

If thou wilt not watch to do all the words of this law that are written in this book, every disease and every plague which are not written in the book of this law, Jehovah will send secretly upon thee, even until thou be destroyed (Deuteronomy 28:58, 61); where the meaning is the same.

His good pleasure is in the law of Jehovah, and in His law doth he meditate day and night (Psalms 1:2);

“the law of Jehovah” denotes the books of Moses, for the prophetic books were not yet written, nor the historic except those of Joshua and of Judges. Besides passages in which the “law of Moses” is mentioned, to be seen below.

[5] That “the law” in the closest sense is the ten commandments written on tables of stone upon Mount Sinai, is known (see Josh. 8:32); but this law is also called “the testimony” (Exodus 25:16, 21).

[6] That Moses represents the law in a less wide sense, or the historic Word, and also the law in a close sense, and likewise in the closest sense, is evident from those passages where instead of “the law” mention is made of “Moses;” and where the law is called “the law of Moses,” as in Luke:

Abraham said to him, They have Moses and the prophets, let them hear them. If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded though one rise from the dead (Luke 16:29, 31);

here by “Moses and the prophets” the like is signified as by “the law and the prophets,” namely, the historic and the prophetic Word; from which it is evident that “Moses” denotes the law, or the historic Word. Again:

Jesus beginning from Moses and from all the prophets, interpreted in all the scriptures the things concerning Himself (Luke 24:27).

All things must be fulfilled which are written in the law of Moses, and the prophets, and the psalms, concerning Me (Luke 24:44).

Philip said, We have found Jesus of whom Moses in the law did write (John 1:45).

Moses in the law commanded us (John 8:5).

There hath flowed down over us the curse and the oath, which was written in the law of Moses the servant of God; for we have sinned against Him. As it is written in the law of Moses, all evil is come upon us (Daniel 9:11, 13).

Joshua wrote upon the stone of the altar a copy of the law of Moses (Josh. 8:32).

[7] It is said “the law of Moses” because by Moses is represented the Lord as to the law, that is, as to the Word; and in a sense less wide, as to the historic Word. Hence it is that to Moses is attributed what is of the Lord, as in John:

Moses gave you the law; Moses gave you circumcision; if a man receive circumcision on the sabbath, that the law of Moses may not be broken (John 7:19, 22-23).

Moses said, Honor thy father and thy mother (Mark 7:10).

Jesus answering said to them, What did Moses command you? They said, Moses permitted to write a bill of divorcement and to put her away (Mark 10:3-4).

And because on account of the representation there is attributed to Moses what is of the Lord, it is said both “the law of Moses,” and “the law of the Lord,” in Luke:

When the days of her purification were fulfilled, according to the law of Moses, they brought Him into Jerusalem, to present Him to the Lord (as it is written in the law of the Lord, Every male that openeth the womb shall be called holy to the Lord), and to offer a sacrifice, according to that which is said in the law of the Lord, A pair of turtle doves, and two young pigeons (Luke 2:22-24, 39).

[8] As Moses represented the law, he was allowed to enter in unto the Lord on Mount Sinai, and not only to receive the tables of the law there, but also to hear the statutes and judgments of the law, and to deliver them to the people; and it is also said that “from this, they should believe in Moses forever.”

Jehovah said unto Moses, Lo I come unto thee in the thickness of the cloud, that the people may hear when I shall speak with thee, and may also believe in thee forever (Exodus 19:9);

it is said “in the thickness of the cloud” because by a “cloud” is meant the Word in the letter, and from this when Moses entered in unto the Lord on Mount Sinai, it is said that he “entered into the cloud” (Exodus 20:18; 24:2, 18; 34:25). (That a “cloud” denotes the literal sense of the Word, see the preface to Gen. 18; also n. 4060, 4391, 5922, 6343)

[9] And as Moses represented the law or the Word, therefore also when he came down from Mount Sinai,

The skin of his face shone when he spoke; and he put a veil upon his faces (Exodus 34:28 seq.).

The “shining of the faces” signified the internal of the law, for this is in the light of heaven, and is therefore called “glory” (n. 5922); and the “veil” signified the external of the law. That he veiled his face when he spoke with the people was because with them the internal was covered; and was so obscured to that people that they could not endure any of the light from it. (That the “face” denotes the internal, see n. 1999, 2434, 3527, 3573, 4066, 4796-4805, 5102, 5695.) As by Moses was represented the Lord as to the historic Word, and by Elias the Lord as to the prophetic Word, therefore when the Lord was transfigured, Moses and Elias were seen talking with Him (Matthew 17:3); nor could any others talk with the Lord when His Divine appeared in the world than they who represented the Word, for talking with the Lord is done through the Word. (That Elias represented the Lord as to the Word, see n. 2762, 5247.)

[10] And as both Moses and Elias together represented the whole Word, therefore where it is said of Elias that he should be “sent before the Lord,” mention is made of both:

Remember ye the law of Moses My servant, which I commanded unto him in Horeb for all Israel, even statutes and judgments. Behold I will send you Elijah the prophet, before the great and terrible day of Jehovah come (Malachi 4:4-5).

These words involve that one would go before to announce the advent according to the Word.
