Levitski Zakonik 19

1 Još reče Gospod Mojsiju govoreći:

2 Kaži svemu zboru sinova Izrailjevih, i reci im: Budite sveti, jer sam ja svet, Gospod Bog vaš.

3 Svaki da se boji matere svoje i oca svog; i držite subote moje; ja sam Gospod Bog vaš.

4 Ne obraćajte se k idolima, i bogove livene ne gradite sebi; ja sam Gospod Bog vaš.

5 A kad prinosite žrtvu zahvalnu Gospodu, prinosite je drage volje.

6 U koji je dan prinesete, neka se jede, i sutradan; a šta ostane do trećeg dana, neka se ognjem sažeže.

7 A ako bi se šta jelo treći dan, gad je, neće biti ugodna.

8 Ko bi god jeo, nosiće svoje bezakonje, jer oskvrni svetinju Gospodnju; zato će se istrebiti ona duša iz naroda svog.

9 A kad žanjete rod zemlje svoje, nemoj požeti sasvim njivu svoju, niti pabirči po žetvi.

10 Ni vinograd svoj nemoj pabirčiti, i nemoj kupiti zrna koja padnu po vinogradu tvom; nego ostavi siromahu i došljaku. Ja sam Gospod Bog vaš.

11 Ne kradite; ne lažite i ne varajte bližnjeg svog.

12 Ne kunite se imenom mojim krivo; jer ćeš oskvrniti ime Boga svog. Ja sam Gospod.

13 Ne zakidaj bližnjeg svog i ne otimaj mu; plata nadničarova da ne prenoći kod tebe do jutra.

14 Nemoj psovati gluvog, ni pred slepca metati šta da se spotakne; nego se boj Boga svog; ja sam Gospod.

15 Ne činite nepravdu na sudu, ne gledajte što je ko siromah, niti se povodi za bogatim; pravo sudi bližnjemu svom.

16 Ne idi kao opadač po narodu svom, i ne ustaj na krv bližnjeg svog; ja sam Gospod.

17 Nemoj mrzeti na brata svog u srcu svom; slobodno iskaraj bližnjeg svog, i nemoj trpeti greha na njemu.

18 Ne budi osvetljiv, i ne nosi srdnju na sinove naroda svog; nego ljubi bližnjeg svog kao sebe samog; ja sam Gospod.

19 Uredbe moje držite; živinčeta svog ne puštaj na živinče druge vrste; ne zasevaj njive svoje dvojakim semenom, i ne oblači na se haljine od dvojakih stvari.

20 Ako bi ko obležao robinju, koja je isprošena ali nije otkupljena ni oslobođena, oboje da se šibaju, ali da se ne pogube; jer nije bila oslobođena.

21 I neka on prinese Gospodu žrtvu za prestup svoj na vrata šatora od sastanka, ovna za prestup.

22 I neka ga očisti pred Gospodom sveštenik ovnom prinesenim za prestup od greha koji je učinio; i oprostiće mu se greh njegov.

23 A kad dođete u zemlju i nasadite svakojakog voća, obrežite mu okrajak, rod njegov; tri godine neka vam je neobrezano, i ne jedite ga.

24 A četvrte godine neka bude sav rod njegov posvećen u hvalu Gospodu.

25 Pa tek pete godine jedite voće s njega, da bi vam se umnožio rod njegov. Ja sam Gospod Bog vaš.

26 Ništa ne jedite s krvlju. Nemojte vračati, ni gatati po vremenu.

27 Ne strižite kosu svoju ukrug, ni grdite bradu svoju.

28 Za mrtvacem ne režite telo svoje, ni udarajte na se kakve belege. Ja sam Gospod.

29 Nemoj skvrniti kćer svoju puštajući je da se kurva, da se ne bi zemlja prokurvala i napunila se bezakonja.

30 Držite subote moje, i svetinju moju poštujte. Ja sam Gospod.

31 Ne obraćajte se k vračarima i gatarima, niti ih pitajte, da se ne skvrnite o njih. Ja sam Gospod Bog vaš.

32 Pred sedom glavom ustani, i poštuj lice starčevo, i boj se Boga svog. Ja sam Gospod.

33 Ako je u tebe došljak u zemlji vašoj, ne čini mu krivo.

34 Ko je došljak među vama, neka vam bude kao onaj koji se rodio među vama, i ljubite ga kao sebe samog; jer ste i vi bili došljaci u zemlji misirskoj. Ja sam Gospod Bog vaš.

35 Ne činite nepravde u sudu, ni merom za dužinu, ni merom za težinu, ni merom za stvari koje se sipaju.

36 Merila neka su vam prava, kamenje pravo, efa prava, in prav. Ja sam Gospod Bog vaš, koji sam vas izveo iz zemlje misirske.

37 Držite, dakle, sve uredbe moje i sve zakone moje, i vršite ih. Ja sam Gospod.

8540. 'And an omer is the tenth part of an ephah' means the amount of good then. This is clear from the meaning of 'an omer', in that it was the tenth part of an ephah, as the sufficient amount, for 'ten' means that which is complete, 3107, so that 'the tenth part' means the sufficient amount, 8468; and from the meaning of 'an ephah' as good. The reason why 'an ephah' means good is that the ephah and the homer were used to measure dry commodities that served as food, such as wheat, barley, or fine flour; and things that serve as food mean forms of good. And the bath and the hin were used to measure liquid commodities that served as drink; therefore these latter measures mean truths. The container takes its meaning from it contents.

[2] The fact that 'an ephah' was used as a measure is evident from the following places: In Moses,

You shall have a just ephah, and a just hin. Leviticus 19:36.

In Ezekiel,

You shall have just balances, and a just ephah, and a just bath. Ezekiel 45:10.

In the same prophet, The ephah and the bath shall be of one measure, for the ephah is a tenth of a homer. Ezekiel 44:11.

A like use of it as a measure occurs in Amos 8:5.

[3] The meaning of 'an ephah' as good is evident from places where the minchah is referred to; the amount of flour or fine flour for it is measured by the ephah, for example at Leviticus 5:11; Numbers 5:15; 28:5; Ezekiel 45:24; 26:7, 11. And 'minchah' too means good, 4581. That meaning is also evident from the following in Zechariah,

The angel talking to me said to me, Lift your eyes now; what is this going out? And I said, What is this? He said, This is an ephah going out. He said further, This is their eye in all the earth. And behold, a talent of lead was lifted up, and at the same time a woman 1 sitting in the middle of the ephah. Then he said, She is wickedness. 2 And he threw her down into the middle of the ephah, and threw a stone of lead 3 over the mouth of it. And I raised my eyes and saw, and behold, two women going out, and the wind was in their wings. Each had two wings like the wings of a stork, and they lifted up the ephah between earth and heaven. And I said to the angel talking to me, Where are they taking away the ephah? And he said to me, To build her a house in the land of Shinar; and she will be prepared and will remain there on her seat. Zechariah 5:5-11.

[4] No one can ever know what all this means except from the internal sense. He will never know unless he knows from that sense what 'an ephah' means, and what 'the woman in the middle of it', 'the stone of lead over the mouth of the ephah', and also 'Shinar' mean. Once these particular meanings have been brought to the surface it is plain that the profanation existing in the Church at that time is meant. For 'an ephah' means good; 'the woman' means wickedness or evil, as it is explicitly stated there; and 'a stone of lead' means falsity arising from evil which shuts it away, 'a stone' being outward truth, and therefore in the contrary sense falsity, 643, 1298, 3720, 6426, and 'lead' evil, 8298. So it is that the woman in the middle of the ephah, over the mouth of which a stone of lead was placed, means evil shut up in good by falsity, which is the same thing as profanation. For profanation is evil joined to good, 6348. The two women lifting up the ephah between earth and heaven are Churches, 252, 253, by which the profanation was banished. 'Shinar', to which the woman in the ephah was taken away, is external worship that has profanity within it, 1183, 1292
