Левит 10

Studie

   

1 Надавъ и Авіудъ, сыны Аароновы, взяли каждый свою кадильницу и положили въ нихъ огня, и всыпали на него куреній и принесли предъ Господа огнь чуждый, котораго Онъ не велјлъ имъ.

2 И исшелъ огнь отъ Господа, и сжегъ ихъ, и умерли предъ лицемъ Господнимъ.

3 И сказалъ Моисей Аарону: вотъ о чемъ говорилъ Господь, когда сказалъ: Въ приближающихся ко Мнј освящусь и предъ всјмъ народомъ прославлюсь. Ааронъ молчалъ.

4 И позвалъ Моисей Мисаила и Елцафа - на, сыновъ Узіила, дяди Ааронова, и сказалъ имъ: пойдите, вынесите братьевъ вашихъ отъ святилища вонъ изъ стана.

5 И пошли и вынесли ихъ въ хитонахъ ихъ вонъ изъ стана, какъ сказалъ Моисей.

6 Аарону же, и Елеазару, и Иѕамару сынамъ его Моисей сказалъ: головъ своихъ не обнажайте, и одеждъ вашихъ не раздирайте, чтобъ вамъ не умереть, и не навести гнјва на все общество. Братья ваши, весь домъ Израилевъ, могутъ плакать о сожженныхъ, которыхъ сожегъ Господь.

7 И отъ дверей скиніи собранія не отходите, чтобъ не умереть вамъ: ибо на васъ елей помазанія Господня. И сдјлали такъ,какъ сказалъ Моисей.

8 И говорилъ Господь Аарону, и сказалъ:

9 вина и напитковъ не пей, ты и сыны твои съ тобою, когда входите въ скинію собранія, чтобъ не умереть. Это вјчное постановленіе въ роды ваши:

10 чтобъ вы могли отличать священное отъ несвященнаго, и нечистое отъ чистаго,

11 и научать сыновъ Израилевыхъ всјмъ уставамъ, которые изрекъ имъ Господь чрезъ Моисея.

12 И сказалъ Моисей Аарону, и Елеазару, и Иѕамару, оставшимся сынамъ его: возьмите приношеніе хлјбное, оставшееся отъ огнепалимыхъ жертвъ Господнихъ, и јшьте оное прјсное у жертвенника: ибо это великая святыня.

13 Јшьте оное на святомъ мјстј, ибо это участокъ твой и участокъ сыновъ твоихъ изъ огнепалимыхъ жертвъ Господнихъ; такъ мнј повелјно.

14 И грудь потрясанія и плечо возношенія јшьте на чистомъ мјстј, ты, и сыновья твои и дочери твои съ тобою; ибо это дано въ участокъ тебј и въ участокъ сынамъ твоимъ изъ благодарственныхъ жертвъ сыновъ Израилевыхъ.

15 Плечо возношенія и грудь потрясанія должны они приносить съ огнепалимыми жертвами тука, потрясая предъ лицемъ Господнимъ, и да будетъ это вјчнымъ участкомъ тебј и сыновьямъ твоимъ съ тобою, какъ повелјлъ Господь.

16 Потомъ Моисей искалъ, искалъ козла жертвы за грјхъ, и вотъ онъ сожженъ. И разгнјвался Моисей на Елеазара и Иѕамара, оставшихся сыновъ Аароаовыхъ, и сказалъ:

17 почему вы не јли жертвы за грјхъ на святомъ мјстј? ибо это великая святыня, и она дана вамъ, чтобъ снимать грјхи съ общества и очищать ихъ предъ Господомъ.

18 Вотъ, кровь ея не внесена внутрь святилища. Вы должны јсть ее на святомъ мјстј, какъ повелјно мнј.

19 Ааронъ сказалъ Моисею: вотъ сегодня принесли они жертву свою за грјхъ и всесожженіе свое предъ Господомъ, и это случилось со мною; если я сегодня съјмъ жертву за грјхъ, будетъ ли сіе благоугодно въ очахъ Господа?

20 Моисей выслушалъ; это было благоугодно въ очахъ его.

9475. 'And for the incense of spices' means for delightful perception. This is clear from the meaning of 'incense' as the things of worship that are perceived with delight, such as acts of thanksgiving, adoration, prayer, and the like; and from the meaning of 'spices' as truths of faith which are delightful because they originate in good. For sweet odours, such as spicy ones, mean that which is delightful; and whatever is delightful is such by virtue of the good made known through truths. So it is that 'the incense of spices' means the delightful perception that belongs to truth originating in good. The spices which went into the making of that incense are listed, and the preparation of it is described in the following words,

Take for yourself spices, stacte and onycha and galbanum - [these] spices, and pure frankincense. You shall make them an incense, salted, pure, holy. You shall beat some of it very small, and put some of it before the Testimony in the tent of meeting. Most holy 1 shall it be to you. The incense shall be to you holy for Jehovah. Exodus 30:34-38.

The altar of incense, along with the incense itself, is described as follows,

You shall make an altar for burning incense. You shall overlay it with pure gold. You shall put it before the veil that is over the ark of the Testimony before the mercy-seat, that Aaron may burn on it spicy incense every morning; when he trims the lamps he shall burn it, and between the evenings. Exodus 30:1-10; 37:25-end; 40:26-27.

And elsewhere,

When Aaron comes into the Holy Place he shall take a censer full of burning coals of fire 2 from upon the altar, with his hands full of spicy incense beaten fine. 3 Then he shall bring it inside the veil, in order that he may put the incense onto the fire before Jehovah, and the cloud of incense may cover the mercy-seat which is over the Testimony. Leviticus 16:12-13.

[2] Since 'incense' meant acts of worship such as had their origin in good made known through truths, as do all expressions of faith that have their origin in the good of love, the fire was taken from the altar; for the fire on the altar meant the good of God's love, 934, 4906, 5071 (end), 5215, 6314, 6832, 6834, 6849, 7324, 7852. On this account when fire had been taken from any other source they were struck down by a plague and died, Leviticus 10:1-2ff; Numbers 16:45-48; for fire from any other source, or 'foreign fire', meant love that was not God's.

[3] The fact that expressions of faith having their origin in the good of love and charity, for example thanksgivings, acts of adoration, and prayers, are meant by 'incense' is clear in David,

My prayers are acceptable, [as] incense before You. Psalms 141:2.

In John,

The four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each holding a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints. Revelation 5:8.

In the same book,

An angel holding a golden censer ... And much incense was given to him, that he should offer it with the prayers of all the saints on the golden altar which was before the throne. The smoke of the incense went up from the prayers of the saints. Revelation 8:3-4.

[4] The reason why such expressions of faith are meant by 'incense' is that they are matters of thought and consequently of the lips. But matters of affection and consequently of the heart are meant by 'the minchah' in Malachi 1:11, where it says that from the rising of the sun even to its setting Jehovah's name will be great among the nations, and 'in every place incense has been offered to My name, and a pure minchah'; and the same things are meant by 'the burnt offering' in Moses,

The sons of Levi will teach Jacob Your judgements and Israel Your law. They will put incense in Your nose, and burnt offering on Your altar. Deuteronomy 33:10.

'Incense' in these places stands for such things as are matters of thought and the lips and have regard to the truths of faith; 'minchah' and 'burnt offering' stand for such things as are matters of affection and the heart and have regard to forms of the good of love. All this being so, in the contrary sense worship arising from falsities of faith is meant by burning incense to other gods, Jeremiah 1:16; 44:3, 5; burning incense to idols, Ezekiel 8:11; 16:18; and burning incense to the baalim, Hosea 2:13.
