Studie

   

1 A šator ćeš načiniti od deset zavesa od tankog platna uzvedenog i od porfire i od skerleta i od crvca; i po njima da budu vezeni heruvimi.

2 Jedan zaves neka bude dvadeset i osam lakata dug i četiri lakta širok; svi zavesi da budu jedne mere.

3 Pet zavesa neka se sastavljaju jedan s drugim, i pet drugih zavesa neka se sastavljaju jedan s drugim.

4 I načini petlje od porfire po kraju jednog zavesa, gde će se krajevi sastavljati, i tako načini po kraju drugog zavesa, gde će se krajevi sastavljati.

5 Pedeset petalja načini na jednom zavesu, a Pedeset petalja načini na kraju drugog zavesa, gde će se sastavljati s drugim, a petlje da budu jedna prema drugoj.

6 I načini pedeset kuka od zlata, da zapneš zavese jedan za drugi kukama, i tako će biti šator jedan.

7 I načini zavese od kostreti za naslon nad šatorom; jedanaest takvih zavesa načini.

8 Zaves jedan neka bude trideset lakata dug, a širok četiri lakta; tih jedanaest zavesa da su jedne mere.

9 I sastavi pet zavesa zajedno, a šest ostalih zajedno, na dvoje ćeš previti šesti zaves s prednje strane naslonu.

10 I načini pedeset petalja na stražnjem kraju prvog zavesa, gde će se sastavljati, a pedeset petalja na kraju drugog zavesa, gde će se sastavljati.

11 I načini kuka bronzanih pedeset, i zapni kuke na petlje, i sastavi naslon, da bude jedno.

12 A što je više u zavesa na naslonu, polovina zavesa što pretiče, neka visi na stražnjoj strani šatoru.

13 I lakat s jedne strane a lakat s druge strane što ima više u dužinu u zavesa na naslonu, neka visi šatoru sa strane i tamo i amo, da ga zaklanja.

14 I načini pokrivač naslonu od koža ovnujskih crvenih obojenih, i svrh njega pokrivač od koža jazavičijih.

15 I načini za šator daske od drveta sitima, koje će stajati pravo.

16 Deset lakata neka bude svaka daska duga a podrug lakta široka.

17 Dva čepa neka budu na dasci, jedan prema drugom najednako; tako načini na svakoj dasci za šator.

18 Tako načini daske za šator, dvadeset dasaka na južnoj strani.

19 A pod dvadeset dasaka načini četrdeset stopica od srebra: dve stopice pod jednu dasku za dva čepa njena, i dve stopice pod drugu dasku za dva čepa njena.

20 A na drugoj strani šatora prema severu dvadeset dasaka.

21 Sa četrdeset stopica srebrnih, dve stopice pod jednu dasku i dve stopice pod drugu dasku.

22 A na zapadnoj strani šatora načini šest dasaka,

23 I dve daske na dva ugla od šatora.

24 I one neka se sastavljaju ozdo i neka se sastavljaju ozgo biočugom; tako neka bude u obe koje će biti na oba ugla.

25 Tako će biti osam dasaka sa stopicama srebrnim, sa šesnaest stopica, dve stopice pod jednu dasku, a dve stopice pod drugu dasku.

26 I načini prevornice od drveta sitima, pet za daske na jednoj strani šatora,

27 I pet prevornica za daske na drugoj strani šatora, i pet prevornica za daske na zapadnoj strani šatora do oba ugla.

28 A srednja prevornica da ide preko srede dasaka od jednog kraja do drugog.

29 A daske okuj zlatom, i biočuge im načini od zlata, da se kroz njih provuku prevornice, a i prevornice okuj zlatom.

30 Tako ćeš podignuti šator po slici koja ti je pokazana na gori.

31 I načini zaves od porfire i od skerleta i od crvca i od tankog platna uzvedenog, i po njemu neka budu vezeni heruvimi.

32 I obesi ga o četiri stupa od drveta sitima, okovana zlatom, sa kukama zlatnim, na četiri stopice srebrne.

33 I obesi zaves o kuke, i unesi za zaves kovčeg od svedočanstva, da vam zaves rastavlja svetinju od svetinje nad svetinjama.

34 I metni zaklopac na kovčeg od svedočanstva u svetinji nad svetinjama.

35 I namesti sto pred zaves a svećnjak prema stolu na južnoj strani šatora, da sto stoji na severnoj strani.

36 I na vrata naslonu načinićeš zaves od porfire i od skerleta i od crvca i od tankog platna uzvedenog, vezen;

37 I za taj zaves načinićeš pet stupova od drveta sitima, koje ćeš okovati zlatom, sa kukama zlatnim, i salićeš za njih pet stopica od bronze.

Length

  

'Length' symbolizes the goodness of the church for the same reason that 'breadth' symbolizes truth. This is because 'length' indicates the sweep of heaven from east to west, and 'breadth' means the sweep of heaven from south to north. Angels who dwell in the eastern and western zones in heaven are in the goodness of love, while angels who dwell in the southern and northern zones in heaven are in truths of wisdom. The same is true with the church on earth, for everyone who is in the church's goods and truths from the Word is associated with angels in heaven, and each person dwells with them in the interiors of their mind -- people in the goodness of love in the eastern and western zones of heaven, and people who are in truths of wisdom in the southern and northern zones of heaven. No one is aware of this, but everyone goes to his place after death.

906. Its length is as great as its breadth. This symbolically means that goodness and truth in the New Church are united, like essence and form.

The length of the city Jerusalem symbolizes the church's goodness, and its breadth symbolizes the church's truth. That the breadth of a thing symbolizes truth is something we showed from the Word in no. 861 above.

The length of a thing symbolizes goodness, here the goodness of the church, for the same reason that breadth symbolizes truth. The reason is that the sweep of heaven from east to west is meant by length, and the sweep of heaven from south to north by breadth, and angels who dwell in the eastern and western zones in heaven are impelled by the goodness of love, while angels who dwell in the southern and northern zones in heaven are impelled by truths of wisdom, as may be seen in no. 901 above.

[2] It is the same with the church on earth, for everyone impelled by the church's goods and truths from the Word is associated with angels in heaven, and he dwells with them in the interiors of his mind - those impelled by the goodness of love in the eastern and western zones of heaven, and those impelled by truths of wisdom in the southern and northern zones of heaven. No one is aware of this, indeed, but everyone nevertheless goes to his place after death.

This, then, is the reason that length, when describing the church, symbolizes its goodness, and breadth its truth. Obviously length and breadth cannot be used to describe the church, but they can be to describe a city which symbolizes the church.

The symbolic meaning is that goodness and truth in the New Church are united, like essence and form, because we are told that its length is as great as its breadth, and, as we said, its length symbolizes the church's goodness, and its breadth its truth.

They are united like essence and form, because truth gives formal expression to goodness, and goodness is the essence of truth, and the essence and the form are united.
