Izlazak 31

Studie

   

1 I reče Gospod Mojsiju govoreći:

2 Gle, pozvah po imenu Veseleila sina Urije sina Orovog od plemena Judinog.

3 I napunih ga Duha Svetog, mudrosti i razuma i znanja i svake veštine,

4 Da vešto izmišlja kako se šta može načiniti od zlata i od srebra i od bronze,

5 Da ume rezati kamenje i ukivati, da ume tesati drvo, i svaki posao raditi.

6 I evo udružih s njim Elijava, sina Ahisamahovog od plemena Danovog, i svakom veštom čoveku u srce dadoh veštinu da izrade sve što sam ti zapovedio.

7 Šator od sastanka, i kovčeg za svedočanstvo i zaklopac na nj, i sve sprave u šatoru,

8 I sto i sprave njegove, i svećnjak čisti sa svim spravama njegovim, i oltar kadioni,

9 I oltar za žrtvu paljenicu sa svim spravama njegovim, i umivaonicu i podnožje njeno,

10 I haljine službene i svete haljine Aronu svešteniku i haljine sinovima njegovim, da vrše službu svešteničku,

11 I ulje pomazanja, i kad mirisni za svetinju. Sve neka načine onako kako sam ti zapovedio.

12 I reče Gospod Mojsiju govoreći:

13 A ti kaži sinovima Izrailjevim i reci: Ali subote moje čuvajte, jer je znak između mene i vas od kolena do kolena, da znate da sam ja Gospod koji vas posvećujem.

14 Čuvajte dakle subotu, jer vam je sveta; ko bi je oskvrnio, da se pogubi; jer ko bi god radio kakav posao u nju, istrebiće se ona duša iz naroda svog.

15 Šest dana neka se radi; a sedmi je dan subota, odmor, svet Gospodu; ko bi god radio posao u dan subotni, da se pogubi.

16 Zato će čuvati sinovi Izrailjevi subotu praznujući subotu od kolena do kolena zavetom večnim.

17 To je znak između mene i sinova Izrailjevih doveka; jer je za šest dana stvorio Gospod nebo i zemlju, a u sedmi dan počinu i odmori se.

18 I izgovorivši ovo Mojsiju na gori Sinajskoj, dade mu dve ploče svedočanstva, ploče kamene pisane prstom Božijim.

Heart

  
by Caleb Kerr

The heart means love. A good heart means love to the Lord and to the neighbor, while a hard or stony heart means the love of self or the world -- riches and things. When the psalmist asks the Lord to search his heart, he wants the Lord to see what it is that he loves. And we are what we love. What we eat may form our earthly body, but it's only temporary, what we love forms our spiritual body, beautiful or ugly as we have chosen. It's interesting to note that the first multi-cellular motion of our embryo is the pulsating that starts in a twist of blood vessel that is to become our heart, and the last motion of our natural body is our heartbeat. It is there for all of our natural life. And of course there is a beating heart in our spiritual bodies when we come to put them on.

410. There are two kinds of vastation. The first is the vastation of people who know yet do not wish to know, or who see yet do not wish to see, as was characteristic of the Jews, and is characteristic of Christians at the present time. The second is the vastation of people who neither know nor see anything because they have no knowledge, as was characteristic of gentiles in the past and still is characteristic of them today. When the final point of vastation is reached with those who know and yet do not wish to know, or who see and yet do not wish to see, a Church rises up anew, not however among the same people, but among others whom they call gentiles. This was what happened to the Most Ancient Church which existed before the Flood, what happened to the Ancient Church after the Flood, and also what happened to the Jewish Church. The reason new light at that point starts to shine for the first time is, as has been stated, that it is then no longer possible for people to profane things that are revealed, since they do not acknowledge and believe that these are true.
