Studie

   

1 A ti uzmi k sebi Arona, brata svog sa sinovima njegovim između sinova Izrailjevih da mi budu sveštenici, Aron i Nadav i Avijud i Eleazar i Itamar, sinovi Aronovi.

2 I načini svete haljine Aronu, bratu svom, za čast i diku.

3 I kaži svim ljudima veštim, koje sam napunio duha mudrosti, neka načine haljine Aronu, da se posveti da mi bude sveštenik.

4 A ovo su haljine što će načiniti: naprsnik i oplećak i plašt, košulja vezena, kapa i pojas. Te haljine svete neka naprave Aronu, bratu tvom i sinovima njegovim, da mi budu sveštenici,

5 I neka uzmu zlata i porfire i skerleta i crvca i tankog platna;

6 I neka načine oplećak od zlata i od porfire i od skerleta i od crvca i od tankog platna uzvedenog, vezen.

7 Dve poramenice neka budu na njemu, koje će se sastavljati na dva kraja, da se drži zajedno.

8 A pojas na njemu neka bude naprave iste kao i on, od zlata, od porfire, od skerleta, od crvca i od tankog platna uzvedenog.

9 I uzmi dva kamena oniha, i na njima izreži imena sinova Izrailjevih,

10 Šest imena njihovih na jednom kamenu, a Šest imena ostalih na drugom kamenu po redu kako se koji rodio.

11 Veštinom kamenarskom, kojom se režu pečati, izrezaćeš na ta dva kamena imena sinova Izrailjevih, i optoči ih zlatom unaokolo.

12 I metni ta dva kamena na poramenice oplećku, da budu kameni za spomen sinovima Izrailjevim, i Aron da nosi imena njihova pred Gospodom na oba ramena svoja za spomen.

13 I načini kopče od zlata.

14 I dva lanca od čistog zlata načini jednaka pletena, i obesi lance pletene o kopče.

15 I naprsnik sudski načini naprave vezene onakve kao oplećak, od zlata, od porfire, od skerleta, od crvca i od tankog platna uzvedenog načini ga.

16 Neka bude četvorouglast i dvostruk, u dužinu s pedi i u širinu s pedi.

17 I udari po njemu drago kamenje, u četiri reda neka bude kamenje. U prvom redu: sardoniks, topaz i smaragd;

18 A u drugom redu: karbunkul, safir i dijamant;

19 A u trećem redu; ligur i ahat i ametist;

20 A u četvrtom redu: hrisolit, onih i jaspis; neka budu ukovani u zlato u svom redu.

21 I tih kamena s imenima sinova Izrailjevih biće dvanaest po imenima njihovim, da budu rezani kao pečat, svaki sa svojim imenom, za dvanaest plemena.

22 I na naprsnik metni lance jednake, pletene, od čistog zlata.

23 I dve grivne zlatne načini na naprsnik, i metni dve grivne na dva kraja naprsniku.

24 Pa provuci dva lanca zlatna kroz dve grivne na krajevima naprsniku.

25 A druga dva kraja od dva lanca zapni za dve kopče, i metni na poramenice od oplećka spred.

26 I načini druge dve grivne zlatne, i metni ih na druga dva kraja naprsniku iznutra na strani koja je od oplećka.

27 I načini još dve zlatne grivne, i metni ih na poramenice od oplećka ozdo prema sastavcima njegovim, više pojasa na oplećku.

28 Tako neka vežu naprsnik grivne njegove za grivne na oplećku vrpcom od porfire, da stoji nad pojasom od oplećka, i da se ne odvaja naprsnik od oplećka.

29 I neka nosi Aron imena sinova Izrailjevih na naprsniku sudskom na srcu svom kad ulazi u svetinju za spomen pred Gospodom vazda.

30 I metni na naprsnik sudski Urim i Tumim, da bude na srcu Aronu kad ulazi pred Gospoda, i Aron će nositi sud sinova Izrailjevih na srcu svom pred Gospodom vazda.

31 I načini plašt pod oplećak sav od porfire.

32 I ozgo neka bude prorez u sredi, i neka bude optočen prorez svuda unaokolo trakom tkan, kao prorez u oklopa, da se ne razdre.

33 A po skutu mu načini šipke od porfire i od skerleta i od crvca svuda unaokolo, i među njima zlatna zvonca svuda unaokolo:

34 Zvonce zlatno pa šipak, zvonce zlatno pa šipak po skutu od plašta svuda unaokolo.

35 I to će biti na Aronu kad služi, da se čuje glas kad ulazi u svetinju pred Gospoda i kad izlazi, da ne pogine.

36 I načini ploču od čistog zlata, i na njoj izreži kao na pečatu: Svetinja Gospodu.

37 I veži je vrpcom od porfire za kapu, spred na kapi da stoji.

38 I biće na čelu Aronovom, da nosi Aron grehe svetih prinosa koje prinesu sinovi Izrailjevi u svim darovima svojih svetih prinosa; biće na čelu njegovom vazda, da bi bili mili Gospodu.

39 I načini košulju od tankog platna izmetanog, i načini kapu od tankog platna, a pojas načini vezen.

40 I sinovima Aronovim načini košulje, i načini im pojase, i kapice im načini za čast i diku.

41 Pa to obuci Aronu bratu svom i sinovima njegovim, i pomaži ih i napuni im ruke i posveti ih da mi budu sveštenici.

42 I načini im gaće lanene, da se pokrije golo telo; od bedara do dna stegna da budu.

43 I to neka je na Aronu i na sinovima njegovim kad ulaze u šator od sastanka ili kad pristupaju k oltaru da služe u svetinji, da ne bi noseći grehe poginuli. Ovo će biti uredba večna njemu i semenu njegovom nakon njega.

2575. 'Behold, I have given a thousand pieces of silver to your brother' means an infinite abundance of rational truth joined to [celestial] good. This is clear from the meaning of 'a thousand' as much and countless, here, as infinite, or an infinite abundance, since the expression has reference to the Lord, a meaning dealt with below; from the meaning of 'silver' as rational truth, dealt with in 1551, 2048; and from the meaning of 'a brother' as celestial good joined to rational truth, like a brother to a sister, 2524, 2557. From this it is evident that 'I have given a thousand pieces of silver to your brother' means an infinite abundance of rational truth joined to [celestial] good. The reason this abundance was granted to good, meant by 'a brother', but not to truth, is that truth derives from good, not good from truth. Regarding that infinite abundance, see 2572.

[2] That 'a thousand' in the Word means much and countless, and infinite when it has reference to the Lord, is evident from the following places: In Moses,

I, Jehovah your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the sons, on the third and on the fourth generations of those who hate Me; and showing mercy to thousands of those who love Me and keep My commandments. Exodus 20:5-6; 34:7; Deuteronomy 5:9-10.

And in Jeremiah,

Jehovah shows mercy to thousands and He repays the iniquity of the fathers into the bosom of their sons after them. Jeremiah 32:18.

In these two places 'thousands' does not mean a definite number but that which is infinite, for the Lord's mercy, being Divine, is infinite. In David,

The chariots of God are myriad on myriad, thousands on thousands; 1 the Lord is within them, Sinai within holiness. Psalms 68:17.

Here 'myriads' and 'thousands' stand for things that are countless.

[3] In the same author,

A thousand will fall at your side, and a myriad at your right hand; it will not come near you. Psalms 91:7.

Here also 'a thousand' and 'a myriad' stand for things that are countless, and as it has reference to the Lord, who is meant by 'David' in the Psalms, those numbers stand for all who are His enemies. In the same author,

Our garners are full, yielding food and still more food; our flocks bring forth a thousand, and ten thousand in our streets. Psalms 144:13.

Here also 'a thousand', and 'ten thousand' or a myriad, stand for things that are countless. In the same author,

A thousand years in Your eyes are but as yesterday when it is past. Psalms 90:4.

'A thousand years' stands for that which is outside time, thus for eternity, which is infinity of time. In Isaiah,

One thousand at the rebuke of one, at the rebuke of five will you flee until you are left like a flagstaff on top of a mountain. Isaiah 30:17.

Here 'one thousand' or a chiliad stands for a large indefinite number, 'five' for few, 649. In Moses,

May Jehovah the God of your fathers add to you, as you are, a thousand times, and may He bless you. Deuteronomy 1:11.

Here 'a thousand times' stands for things that are countless, as in everyday speech in which also a thousand is an expression for many, as when one speaks of things being said thousands of times, or done in thousands of ways. Similarly in Joshua,

One man of you will chase a thousand, for Jehovah your God fights for you. Joshua 23:10.

[4] Being a definite calculable number, the word 'thousand' when used in prophetical parts, especially when these are linked together as historical descriptions, appears to mean a thousand. But in fact it means people who are many or countless - an unspecified number. For historical descriptions are of such a nature that they restrict people's ideas to the most immediate and proper meanings that the words possess, as they also do with the names that occur there, when in fact numbers in the Word, like names also, mean real things, as may become clear from what has been shown already concerning numbers in 482, 487, 575, 647, 648, 755, 813, 1963, 1988, 2075, 2252. This explains why some people suppose that the thousand years referred to in Revelation 20:1-7 means a thousand years or periods of time, for the reason, as has been stated, that prophecies are declared in that book through historical descriptions. But in fact 'a thousand years' there means nothing else than that which is large and indeterminate, and elsewhere infinity of time, or eternity.
