Izlazak 30

Studie

   

1 Još načini oltar kadioni, od drveta sitima načini ga.

2 Dužina neka mu bude lakat, i širina lakat, četvorouglast da bude, i dva lakta visok; iz njega neka mu izlaze rogovi.

3 I pokuj ga čistim zlatom, ozgo sa strana unaokolo, i rogove njegove; i načini mu venac zlatan unaokolo.

4 I načini mu po dva biočuga zlatna ispod venca na dva ugla njegova s obe strane, i kroz njih ćeš provući poluge da se može nositi.

5 A poluge načini od drveta sitima, i okuj ih u zlato.

6 I metni ga pred zaves koji visi pred kovčegom od svedočanstva prema zaklopcu koji je nad svedočanstvom, gde ću se s tobom sastajati.

7 I neka kadi na njemu Aron kadom mirisnim; svako jutro neka kadi kad spremi žiške.

8 I kad zapali Aron žiške uveče, neka kadi; neka bude kad svagdašnji pred Gospodom od kolena do kolena vašeg.

9 Ne prinosite na njemu kad tuđi niti žrtvu paljenicu niti prinos; ni naliv ne lijte na njemu.

10 Samo očišćenje neka čini nad rogovima njegovim Aron jednom u godini; krvlju od žrtve za greh u dan očišćenja jednom u godini činiće očišćenja na njemu od koljena do koljena vašeg; jer je to svetinja nad svetinjama Gospodu.

11 Još reče Gospod Mojsiju govoreći:

12 Kad staneš brojati sinove Izrailjeve, između onih koji idu u broj svaki neka dade otkup za život svoj Gospodu, kad ih staneš brojati, da ne bi došlo na njih kakvo zlo kad ih staneš brojati.

13 A neka da svaki koji ide u broj pola sikla, po siklu svetom (a taj je sikal dvadeset novčića); pola sikla biće prilog Gospodu.

14 Ko god ide u boj, od dvadeset godina i više, neka da prilog Gospodu.

15 Bogati da ne da više a siromah da ne da manje od po sikla, kad daju prilog Gospodu na očišćenje duša vaših.

16 I uzevši novce za očišćenje od sinova Izrailjevih ostavi ih za potrebu u šatoru od sastanka, i biće sinovima Izrailjevim spomen pred Gospodom za očišćenje duša vaših.

17 Još reče Gospod Mojsiju govoreći:

18 Načini i umivaonicu od bronze i podnožje joj od bronze za umivanje; i metni je između šatora od sastanka i oltara, i nalij u nju vode.

19 Da iz nje pere Aron i sinovi njegovi ruke svoje i noge svoje.

20 Kad idu u šator od sastanka, neka se umivaju vodom, da ne izginu, ili kad pristupaju k oltaru da služe i da pale žrtvu ognjenu Gospodu.

21 Tada neka peru ruke svoje i noge svoje da ne izginu. To neka im bude uredba večna Aronu i semenu njegovom od kolena do kolena.

22 Još reče Gospod Mojsiju govoreći:

23 Uzmi mirisa najboljih: smirne najčistije pet stotina sikala i cimeta mirisavog pola toliko, dvesta pedeset, i iđirota takođe dvesta pedeset,

24 I kasije pet stotina merom svetom, i ulja maslinovog jedan in.

25 I od toga načini ulje za sveto pomazanje, ulje najbolje veštinom apotekarskom; to da bude ulje svetog pomazanja.

26 I njim pomaži šator od sastanka i kovčeg od svedočanstva,

27 I sto i sve sprave njegove, i svećnjak i sprave njegove, i oltar kadioni,

28 I oltar na kome se prinosi žrtva paljenica, i sve sprave njegove, i umivaonicu i podnožje njeno.

29 Tako ćeš ih osvetiti, te će biti svetinja nad svetinjom, i šta ih se god dotakne biće sveto.

30 Pomaži i Arona i sinove njegove, i osvetićeš ih da mi budu sveštenici.

31 A sinovima Izrailjevim kaži i reci: Ovo neka mi bude ulje svetog pomazanja od kolena do kolena vašeg.

32 Telo čovečje neka se ne maže njim, niti pravite takvo ulje kakvo je ono; sveto je, neka vam bude sveto.

33 Ako li bi ko načinio tako ulje ili namazao njim drugog, istrebiće se iz naroda svog.

34 I reče Gospod Mojsiju: Uzmi mirisa, stakte, oniha i halvana mirisavog, i tamjana čistog, koliko jednog toliko drugog.

35 I od toga načini kad, sastavljen veštinom apotekarskom, čist i svet.

36 I istucavši ga nasitno, metaćeš ga pred svedočanstvom u šatoru od sastanka, gde ću se sastajati s tobom; to neka vam bude svetinja nad svetinjama.

37 A takav kad kakav načiniš nemojte sebi praviti; to neka ti je svetinja za Gospoda.

38 Ako li bi ko načinio takav da ga miriše, istrebiće se iz naroda svog.

10221. 'Half a shekel according to the shekel of holiness' means all forms of truth springing from good. This is clear from the meaning of 'half' as all; and from the meaning of 'a shekel' as truth springing from good. The reason why 'half' means all is that half a shekel consisted of ten gerahs or obols, and 'ten' means all, 4638, and also remnants, 576, 1906, 1988, 2284, which are the truths and forms of good present with a person, stored away by the Lord in the more internal parts of him, 5135, 5342, 5897, 5898, 7560, 7564. The reason why 'a shekel' means truth springing from good is that it was a weight of silver and also of gold, and 'silver' means truth and 'gold' good. But the amount of truth springing from good and of good coming through truth is determined by the number of gerahs or obols to a shekel. The shekel, being essentially a weight, means the amount; and when it is called 'the shekel of holiness' the amount of truth and good is meant, the reason for this being that truth and good are what are called holy because they come from the Lord who alone is Holy. For more about the shekel and the meaning of it, see 2959.

2284. 'Perhaps ten will be found there' means if remnants were still present. This is clear from the meaning of the number 'ten' as remnants, dealt with in Volume One, in 576, 1738. What remnants are however has been stated and shown in various places already, as in 468, 530, 560, 561, 660, 661, 1050, 1738, 1906, namely that they are all the good and all the truth with a person which lie stored away in his two memories and in his life.

[2] It is well known that there is nothing good nor anything true except that from the Lord; also that what is good and true is flowing in constantly from the Lord into man, but it is received in varying ways, and that in fact it is received according to the life of evil and according to the false assumptions in which the person has confirmed himself. These are what either annihilate, or stifle, or pervert the goods and truths flowing in constantly from the Lord. To prevent goods being mixed with evils therefore, and truths with falsities - for if they were mixed a person would perish for ever - the Lord separates them, and stores away within his interior man the goods and truths he receives. From there the Lord will never allow them to come forth as long as that person is governed by evil and falsity, except at those times when the person has entered some state that is a holy state, or when deeply and anxiously concerned about something, or in times of sickness, or other similar circumstances. These things which the Lord has so stored away in the person are what are called remnants, and of which very much mention is made in the Word, though nobody as yet knows that this is what they mean.

[3] It is according to the nature and the amount of the remnants, that is, of the good and truth residing with him, that a person experiences blessedness and happiness in the next life, for, as has been stated, such remnants are stored away in his interior man and are laid bare when he leaves things of a bodily and worldly nature behind him. The Lord alone knows the nature and the amount of remnants a person has. The person himself cannot possibly know this, for at the present day man is such that he is able to counterfeit what is good while within there is nothing but evil. A person can also appear to be evil and yet may have good within. For these reasons one is never allowed to judge the nature of another person's spiritual life; for the Lord alone, as has been stated, knows this. But one is allowed to judge the nature of another person's life, private and public, since this is of importance to society.

[4] It is very common for those who have adopted an opinion regarding any truth of faith to sit in judgement on others and to say that they cannot be saved unless their beliefs coincide with their own - a judgement which the Lord has forbidden, in Matthew 7:1-2. Yet from much experience I have been led to know that members of every religion are saved provided that they have received through a life of charity remnants of good and appearances of truth. This is what was meant by 'if ten were found [there] they would not be destroyed for the sake of the ten', that is, that if remnants were present they would be saved.

[5] The life of charity consists in thinking what is good in regard to another, and in willing for him that which is good, and in feeling joy within oneself that others as well are saved. But those people do not possess the life of charity whose will is that no others should be saved than those whose beliefs coincide with theirs, especially those who are indignant that the situation is otherwise. This becomes clear solely from the fact that more gentiles are saved than Christians. For people who have thought what is good in regard to their neighbour and have willed for him that which is good accept the truths of faith in the next life more readily than those who called themselves Christians; and they acknowledge the Lord more than Christians do. Indeed nothing gives angels greater delight and happiness than to be teaching those who pass from the world into the next life.
