Levitski Zakonik 3

Studie

   

1 Kad ko prinosi žrtvu zahvalnu, ako od goveda prinosi, muško ili žensko neka prinese zdravo pred Gospodom.

2 I neka metne ruku svoju na glavu žrtvi svojoj, i neka je sveštenik zakolje na vratima šatora od sastanka, i krvlju njenom neka sinovi Aronovi, sveštenici pokrope oltar odozgo unaokolo.

3 Potom neka sveštenik prinese od žrtve zahvalne ono što se pali Gospodu, salo što pokriva creva i sve salo što je na njima;

4 I oba bubrega i salo što je na njima i na slabinama, i mrežicu što je na jetri, neka je izvadi s bubrezima.

5 I neka to zapale sinovi Aronovi na oltaru zajedno sa žrtvom paljenicom, koja bude na drvima na ognju. To je žrtva ognjena na ugodni miris Gospodu.

6 Ako li od sitne stoke prinosi na žrtvu zahvalnu Gospodu, muško ili žensko neka prinese zdravo.

7 Ako prinosi jagnje na žrtvu, neka ga prinese pred Gospodom;

8 I neka metne ruku svoju na glavu žrtvi svojoj, i neka je zakolje pred šatorom od sastanka; i neka pokrope sinovi Aronovi krvlju njenom oltar odozgo unaokolo.

9 Potom neka sveštenik prinese od žrtve zahvalne ono što se pali Gospodu, salo, ceo rep do leđa, salo što pokriva creva i sve salo što je na crevima;

10 I oba bubrega i salo što je na njima i na slabinama, i mrežicu na jetri, s bubrezima neka je izvadi;

11 I neka zapali sveštenik na oltaru; to je jelo od žrtve ognjene Gospodu.

12 Ako li prinosi kozu, neka je prinese pred Gospodom.

13 I neka joj metne ruku svoju na glavu, i neka je zakolje pred šatorom od sastanka, i neka sinovi Aronovi pokrope krvlju njenom oltar odozgo unaokolo.

14 Potom neka sveštenik prinese od nje na žrtvu što se pali Gospodu, salo što pokriva creva i sve salo što je na crevima,

15 I oba bubrega, i salo što je na njima i na slabinama, i mrežicu na jetri, s bubrezima neka je izvadi;

16 I neka zapali sveštenik na oltaru; to je jelo od žrtve ognjene za ugodni miris. Sve je salo Gospodnje.

17 Večan zakon neka vam bude od kolena do kolena u svim stanovima vašim: da ne jedete salo ni krv.

438. They had tails like scorpions. (9:10) This symbolizes the Word's truths falsified, by which they induce a mental numbness.

A tail symbolizes the last extension of the head, because the brain extends through the spinal column into the tail. Consequently the head and the tail are united as their first and last elements. Consequently, when the head symbolizes a justifying and saving faith alone, the tail symbolizes in summary all its proofs, and as these are taken from the Word, it symbolizes the Word's truths falsified.

Everyone who assumes some principle of religion on the basis of on his own intelligence and puts it at the head of the rest, also takes proof passages from the Word and puts them at the tail, thus inducing a mental numbness in others and so doing them injury. That is why we are told that "they had tails like scorpions," and next, that "there were stings in their tails," and that "their power was to hurt men." For a scorpion symbolizes a persuasiveness that induces a numbness in the intellect (no. 425).

To be assured that the tail is an extension of the brain through the spinal column to its final point, ask any anatomist and he will tell you. Or look at a dog or some other fierce animal that has a tail, and if you treat it kindly and make yourself agreeable to it, you will see its stiffened back soften and its tail move in a corresponding manner. But on the other hand, if you annoy it, its backbone stiffens.

[2] The primary tenet of the intellect that is assumed as a principle is symbolized by the head, and its final expression by the tail, also in the following passages:

...He will cut off head and tail from Israel... The elder and honorable man is the head; but the prophet who teaches lies is the tail. (Isaiah 9:14-15)

There will not be any work for Egypt that the head or tail... may do. (Isaiah 19:15)

Nothing else is symbolized by the dragon's seven heads and the tail by which it drew a third of the stars of heaven and threw them to the earth, in Revelation 12:3-4; and also by the tails like serpents, having heads, with which they do harm, in verse 19 of this chapter.

Since the tail symbolizes the final element, and the final element embraces all the rest, therefore Jehovah said to Moses,

"...take (the serpent) by the tail." And he... caught it, and it became a rod... (Exodus 4:3-4)

The priests were also commanded therefore to remove the whole tail close to the backbone and to sacrifice it with the fat on the entrails, the kidneys, the intestines, and the liver (Leviticus 3:9-11; 8:25; 9:19, Exodus 29:22).

To be shown that the final element contains and embraces all the prior ones, see The Doctrine of the New Jerusalem Regarding the Sacred Scripture, nos. 38 65, and Angelic Wisdom Regarding Divine Love and Wisdom, nos. 209-216 217-222.
