Левит 16

1 И говорилъ Господь Моисею, по смерти двухъ сыновъ Аароновыхъ, когда они, приступивъ предъ лице Господне, умерли.

2 И сказалъ Господь Моисею: скажи Аарону, брату твоему, чтобъ онъ не во всякое время входилъ во святилище за завјсу предъ очистилище, которое на ковчегј, дабы не умереть: ибо надъ очистилищемъ онымъ являюсь Я во облакј.

3 Съ симъ войдетъ Ааронъ во святилище: съ тельцемъ въ жертву за грјхъ и съ овномъ во всесожженіе.

4 Пусть надјнетъ онъ священный льняный хитонъ, нижнее льняное платье да будетъ на тјлј его, и льнянымъ поясомъ пусть опояшется и возложитъ на голову льняной кидаръ: это священныя одежды. Пусть омоетъ онъ тјло свое водою и надјнетъ ихъ.

5 И отъ общества сыновъ Израилевыхъ пусть возьметъ изъ стада козъ двухъ козловъ въ жертву за грјхъ и одного овна во всесожженіе.

6 И приведетъ Ааронъ тельца, который отъ него, въ жертву за грјхъ, и очиститъ себя и домъ свой.

7 И возьметъ двухъ козловъ, и представитъ ихъ предъ Господомъ у дверей скиніи собранія;

8 и сдјлаетъ Ааровъ о обоихъ козлахъ жеребьи: одинъ жеребей для Іеговы, а другой жеребей для отпущенія.

9 Козла, на котораго вышелъ жеребей для Іеговы, возьметъ и принесетъ въ жертву за грјхъ,

10 а козла, на котораго вышелъ жеребей для отпущенія, поставитъ живаго предъ Господомъ, чтобы совершить надъ нимъ очищеніе и отослать его въ пустыню для отпущенія.

11 И приведетъ Ааронъ тельца, который отъ него, въ жертву за грјхъ, и очиститъ себя и домъ свой и заколетъ тельца, который отъ него въ жертву за грјхъ;

12 и возьметъ полную кадильницу горящихъ угольевъ съ жертвенника, который предъ Господомъ, и полныя обј горсти благовоннаго куренія, мелко истолченаго, и внесетъ за завјсу;

13 и положитъ куреніе на огонь предъ Гооподомъ, и облако куренія покроетъ очистилище, которое надъ ковчегомъ откровенія, и онъ не умретъ.

14 И возьметъ крови тельца и покропитъ перстомъ своимъ на очистилище спереди и предъ очистилищемъ, семь разъ покропитъ кровію съ перста своего.

15 И заколетъ козла, который въ жертву за грјхъ отъ народа; и внесетъ кровь его за завјсу и сдјлаетъ съ кровію его то же, что дјлалъ съ кровію тельца, и покропитъ ею на очистилище и предъ очистилищемъ.

16 И такимъ образомъ очиститъ святилище отъ нечистотъ сыновъ Израилевыхъ и отъ преступленій ихъ во всјхъ грјхахъ ихъ. Такъ долженъ поступить онъ съ скиніею собранія, находящеюся у нихъ, среди нечистотъ ихъ.

17 Ни одинъ человјкъ не долженъ быть въ скиніи собранія, когда входитъ онъ для очищенія святилища, до самаго выхода его, пока очищаетъ онъ себя, домъ свой и все общество Израилево.

18 Послј того выдетъ онъ къ жертвеннику, который предъ Господомъ, и очиститъ его, возьметъ крови тельца и крови козла и возложитъ на роги жертвенника со всјхъ сторонъ.

19 И покропитъ на него кровію съ перста своего семь разъ, и очиститъ его и освятитъ его отъ нечистотъ сыновъ Израилевыхъ.

20 Совершивъ очищеніе святилища, скиніи собранія и жертвенника, приведетъ онъ живаго козла,

21 и возложитъ Ааронъ обј руки свои на голову живаго козла, и исповјдаеть надъ нимъ всј беззаконія сыновъ Израилевыхъ и всј преступленія ихъ, всј грјхи ихъ, и возложитъ ихъ на голову козла и отошлетъ съ приготовленнымъ на то человјкомъ въ пустыню,

22 чтобы козелъ понесъ на себј всј беззаконія ихъ въ необитаемую землю, и онъ пуститъ козла въ пустыню.

23 Послј сего Ааронъ войдетъ въ скинію собранія, и скинетъ льняныя одежды, которыя надјвалъ, входя во святилище, и оставитъ ихъ тамъ,

24 и омоетъ тјло свое водою на святомъ мјстј, и надјнетъ одежды свои, и выйдетъ, и совершитъ всесожженіе отъ народа, и очиститъ себя и народъ;

25 а тукъ жертвы за грјхъ воскуритъ на жертвенникј.

26 И тотъ, кто приводилъ козла для отпущенія, долженъ вымыть одежды свои, омыть тјло свое водою, и потомъ можетъ войти въ станъ.

27 А тельца за грјхъ и козла за грјхъ, которыхъ кровь внесена была для очищенія святилища, пусть вынесутъ вонъ изъ стана и сожгутъ на огнј кожи ихъ, и мясо ихъ, и нечистоту ихъ.

28 Кто сожжетъ ихъ, тотъ долженъ вымыть одежды свои и омыть тјло свое водою. и послј того можетъ войдти въ станъ.

29 Да будетъ сіе для васъ вјчнымъ постановленіемъ: въ седьмой мјсяцъ, въ десятый день мјсяца смиряйте души ваши и никакого дјла не дјлайте, ни природный житель, ни пришлецъ, поселившійся между вами;

30 ибо въ сей день очищаютъ васъ, чтобы сдјлать васъ чистыми отъ всјхъ грјховъ вашихъ, чтобы вы были чисты предъ Господомъ.

31 Это суббота покоя для васъ, смиряйте души ваши: это постановленіе вјчное.

32 Очищать же долженъ священникъ, который помазанъ и которому наполнены руки, чтобы онъ священнодјйствовалъ вмјсто отца своего. Онъ надјнетъ льняныя одежды, одежды священныя,

33 и очиститъ святое святилище и скинію собранія, и жертвенникъ очиститъ и священниковъ, и весь народъ общества очистить.

34 Да будетъ сіе для васъ вјчнымъ постановленіемъ: очищать, сыновъ Израилевыхъ отъ всјхъ грјховъ ихъ однажды въ году. И сдјлалъ онъ такъ, какъ повелјлъ Господь Моисею.

10. John, to the seven churches. (1:4) This symbolically means, to all who are in the Christian world where the Word exists and where through it the Lord is known, and who turn to the church.

The seven churches mean, not seven churches, but all who are constituents of the church in the Christian world. For numbers in the Word symbolize properties, and seven symbolizes all things or all people, and so also fullness and completeness, and it occurs in the Word where the subject is something holy, and in an opposite sense, something profane. Consequently this number involves holiness, and in an opposite sense, profanation.

Numbers symbolize properties, or rather they serve as a class of adjectives to substantives, assigning some attribute to their subjects, because a number in itself is a natural quantity. For natural things are measured by numbers, but spiritual things by properties and their states. Therefore someone who does not know the symbolism of numbers in the Word, and particularly in the book of Revelation, cannot know the many secrets that it contains.

Now, because seven symbolizes all things or all people, it is apparent that the seven churches mean all people in the Christian world where the Word exists and where through it the Lord is known. If these live according to the Lord's commandments in the Word, they form the real church.

[2] It is because of this that the Sabbath was instituted on the seventh day, and that the seventh year was called a sabbatical year, and the forty-ninth year the year of Jubilee, which symbolized everything holy in the church.

It is because of this, too, that a week in Daniel and elsewhere symbolizes an entire period from beginning to end and is predicated of the church.

Similar things are symbolized by seven hereafter, as for example, by the seven golden lampstands, in the midst of which was the Son of Man (Revelation 1:13); by the seven stars in His right hand (1:16, 20); by the seven spirits of God (1:4; 4:5); by the seven lamps of fire (4:5); by the seven angels to whom were given seven trumpets (8:2); by the seven angels having the seven last plagues (15:5-6); by the seven bowls full of the seven last plagues (16:1; 21:9); by the seven seals with which the book was sealed (5:1).

Likewise in the following places: That their hands should be filled for seven days (Exodus 29:35). That they should be sanctified for seven days (Exodus 29:37). That when they were inaugurated they should go in seven days, clothed in holy garments (Exodus 29:30). That for seven days they should not go out of the Tabernacle while being initiated into the priesthood (Leviticus 8:33, 35). That atonement should be made for the altar seven times on its horns (Leviticus 16:18-19), and also seven times toward the east (Leviticus 16:12-15). That the water of separation should be sprinkled seven times toward the Tabernacle (Numbers 19:4). That Passover should be celebrated for seven days and unleavened bread eaten for seven days (Exodus 12:1ff., Deuteronomy 16:4-7).

So, too, that the Jews should be punished sevenfold for their sins (Leviticus 26:18, 21, 24, 28), on which account David says, "Requite our neighbors sevenfold into their bosom" (Psalms 79:12). "Sevenfold" means fully.

[3] Also in these places:

The words of Jehovah are pure words, silver... in a furnace... purified seven times. (Psalms 12:6)

The hungry have ceased, until the barren has borne seven, while she who has many children has become feeble. (1 Samuel 2:5)

"The barren" is the church of the gentiles, who did not have the Word. "She who has many children" is the church of the Jews, who did have the Word. Similarly,

She will languish who has borne seven; she will breath out her soul. (Jeremiah 15:9)

Those who dwell in the cities of Israel will... set on fire and burn the weapons...; and they will make fires with them for seven years... ...they will bury Gog, and... for seven months... will be cleansing the land. (Ezekiel 39:9, 11-12)

(The unclean spirit) will take seven other spirits more wicked than himself... (Matthew 12:45)

Profanation is described there, and the seven spirits with which he would return symbolize all falsities of evil, thus a complete extinguishing of goodness and truth.

The seven heads of the dragon, and the seven jewels 1 on its heads (Revelation 12:3), symbolize the profanation of all goodness and truth.

This makes apparent that "seven" involves holiness or profanation, and symbolizes completeness and fullness.

Poznámky pod čarou:

1. The word translated as "jewels" here means diadems or crowns in the original Greek and Latin, but the writer's definitions of the term elsewhere make plain that he regularly and consistently interpreted it to mean jewels or gems.
