Izlazak 27

Studie

   

1 I načini oltar od drveta sitima, pet lakata u dužinu i pet lakata u širinu, četvorouglast da bude oltar, tri lakta visok.

2 I na četiri ugla načini mu rogove, iz njega da izlaze rogovi, i okovaćeš ga u bronzu.

3 I načinićeš mu lonce za pepeo i lopatice i kotliće i viljuške i mašice; sve mu posuđe načini od bronze.

4 I načini mu rešetku od bronze kao mrežu, i načini u rešetke četiri biočuga od bronze na četiri ugla njena.

5 I metni je ispod oltara unaokolo, da bude rešetka do sredine oltara.

6 Načini i poluge oltaru, poluge od drveta sitima, i okuj ih u bronzu.

7 I poluge da se provuku kroz biočuge, da budu poluge s dve strane oltaru, kad se nosi.

8 Načinićeš ga od dasaka da bude iznutra šupalj; kao što ti je pokazano na gori tako neka načine.

9 I načinićeš trem šatoru na južnoj strani; zavesi tremu da budu od tankog platna uzvedenog, sto lakata u dužinu na jednoj strani.

10 I dvadeset stupova i pod njih dvadeset stopica od bronze, a kuke na stupovima i pasovi njihovi od srebra.

11 Tako i sa zapadne strane da budu zavesi sto lakata dugi, i dvadeset stupova i dvadeset stopica od bronze, na stupovima kuke i njihovi pasovi od srebra.

12 A širina će tremu imati sa zapadne strane zavese od pedeset lakata, deset stupova za njih i deset stopica pod njih.

13 A na prednjoj strani prema istoku biće trem širok pedeset lakata.

14 Od petnaest lakata neka budu zavesi na jednoj strani, i za njih tri stupa i tri stopice pod njih;

15 Na drugoj strani zavesi od petnaest lakata, i tri stupa za njih i tri stopice pod njih.

16 A nad vratima od trema zaves od dvadeset lakata od porfire i od skerleta i od crvca i od tankog platna uzvedenog, vezen, i četiri stupa za nj, i pod njih četiri stopice.

17 Svi stupovi u tremu unaokolo da budu opasani srebrom, i kuke da su im srebrne a stopice od bronze.

18 U dužinu će trem imati sto lakata, u širinu pedeset svuda, a u visinu pet lakata, da bude od tankog platna uzvedenog, a stopice od bronze.

19 Sve posuđe u šatoru za svaku službu, i sve kolje u njemu i sve kolje u tremu da bude od bronze.

20 I ti zapovedi sinovima Izrailjevim da ti donesu ulja maslinovog čistog ceđenog za videlo, da bi žišci goreli svagda.

21 U šatoru od sastanka pred zavesom, koji će zaklanjati svedočanstvo, neka ih Aron i sinovi njegovi spremaju da gore od večera do jutra pred Gospodom. To neka je uredba večna kolenima njihovim među sinovima Izrailjevim.

9689. 'And you shall make for the screen five pillars of shittim [wood]' means a sufficient amount of support provided by the uniting intermediary through the good of merit belonging to the Lord's Divine Human. This is clear from the meaning of 'the screen in place of the tent door' as the intermediary uniting the second or middle heaven to the first or lowest, dealt with above in 9686; from the meaning of 'five' as that which exists partially or in some measure, dealt with in 4638, and also a sufficient amount; from the meaning of 'pillars' as support, dealt with in 9674; and from the meaning of 'shittim wood' as the good of merit, which, being the Lord's alone - dealt with in 9472, 9486 - accordingly belongs to His Divine Human, for This is what merit truly belongs to, 9486.

9486. 'Of shittim wood' means righteousness. This is clear from the meaning of 'shittim wood' as the good of merit which is the Lord's alone, dealt with above in 9472, and therefore also righteousness, which is the good of merit. For by His own power the Lord restored the whole of heaven to order and subdued the hells, and at the same time made Divine the Human within Himself; therefore to Him belong merit and righteousness. For this reason the one and only good that reigns in heaven and that makes heaven is the Lord's good of merit and His righteousness, thus His Divine Human since This was made merit and righteousness. The fact that the Lord accomplished these things by His own power is clear in Isaiah,

Who is this who comes from Edom? I who speak in righteousness, mighty to save. I have trodden the winepress alone, and from the peoples not a man (vir) was with Me. I looked around, but there was no helper, and I wondered, but there was no one to uphold; therefore My own arm brought salvation to Me. Isaiah 63:1-5.

In the same prophet,

He saw that there was no man (vir), and wondered that there was no intercessor; therefore His own arm brought salvation to Him, and His righteousness lifted Him up. He put on righteousness as a breastplate. Isaiah 59:16-17.

[2] In Jeremiah,

This is His name which they will call Him, Jehovah our Righteousness. Jeremiah 23:6; 33:15-16.

And in John,

I lay down My life, 1 so that I may receive it again. No one takes it from Me, I lay it down of Myself; I have power to lay it down and I have power to receive it again. John 10:17-18.

From these places it is evident that the Lord in His Divine Human possesses merit and righteousness acquired by Himself. Since 'the ark' means heaven where the Lord is, shittim wood, by which that good is meant, was used in the making of it; for 'wood' in general means good, 643, 3720, 8354. This explains why people who assume that merit lies in works are seen in the next life to be cutting wood, under which there is something of the Lord, 1110, 4943, 8740. And so it is that 'splitting pieces of wood for a burnt offering' means the good of merit, or good belonging to works, 2784, 2812.
