Levítico 17

Studie

   

1 Y habló el SEÑOR a Moisés, diciendo:

2 Habla a Aarón y a sus hijos, y a todos los hijos de Israel, y diles: Esto es lo que ha mandado el SEÑOR, diciendo:

3 Cualquier varón de la Casa de Israel que degollare buey, o cordero, o cabra, en el real, o fuera del real,

4 y no lo trajere a la puerta del tabernáculo del testimonio, para ofrecer ofrenda al SEÑOR delante del tabernáculo del SEÑOR, sangre será imputada al tal varón; sangre derramó; el tal varón será cortado de entre su pueblo;

5 a fin de que traigan los hijos de Israel sus sacrificios, los que sacrifican sobre la faz del campo, para que los traigan al SEÑOR a la puerta del tabernáculo del testimonio al sacerdote, y sacrifiquen ellos sacrificios de paz al SEÑOR.

6 Y el sacerdote esparza la sangre sobre el altar del SEÑOR, a la puerta del tabernáculo del testimonio, y haga perfume del sebo en olor muy aceptable al SEÑOR.

7 Y nunca más sacrificarán sus sacrificios a los demonios, tras de los cuales fornican; tendrán esto por estatuto perpetuo por sus edades.

8 Les dirás también: Cualquier varón de la Casa de Israel, o de los extranjeros que peregrinan entre vosotros, que ofreciere holocausto o sacrificio,

9 y no lo trajere a la puerta del tabernáculo del testimonio, para hacerlo al SEÑOR, el tal varón también será cortado de su pueblo.

10 Y cualquier varón de la Casa de Israel, o de los extranjeros que peregrinan entre ellos, que comiere alguna sangre, yo pondré mi rostro contra la persona que comiere sangre, y la cortaré de entre su pueblo.

11 Porque el alma (o la vida ) de la carne en la sangre está; y yo os la he dado para expiar vuestras personas (almas ) sobre el altar; por lo cual la misma sangre expiará la persona.

12 Por tanto, he dicho a los hijos de Israel: Ninguna persona de vosotros comerá sangre, ni el extranjero que peregrina entre vosotros comerá sangre.

13 Y cualquier varón de los hijos de Israel, o de los extranjeros que peregrinan entre ellos, que cogiere caza de animal o de ave que sea de comer, derramará su sangre y la cubrirá con tierra.

14 Porque el alma de toda carne, su vida, está en su sangre; por tanto he dicho a los hijos de Israel: No comeréis la sangre de ninguna carne, porque el alma (o la vida ) de toda carne es su sangre; cualquiera que la comiere será cortado.

15 Y cualquiera persona que comiere cosa mortecina o despedazada por fiera , así de los naturales como de los extranjeros, lavará sus vestidos, y a sí mismo se lavará con agua, y será inmundo hasta la tarde; y se limpiará.

16 Y si no los lavare, ni lavare su carne, llevará su iniquidad.

330. Out of every tribe and tongue, signifies by all who are in truths in respect to doctrine and in respect to life. This is evident from the signification of "tribe," as being all truths and goods in the complex (of which see above, n. 39; for these are meant by the twelve tribes, and therefore each tribe signifies something of truth and good, therefore "out of every tribe" signifies out of all who are in any kind of truth and good. It is evident also from the signification of "tongue," as being the doctrine of life and faith. That "tribes" signify all truths and goods in the complex will be shown more fully below in its own paragraph; likewise that "tongue" signifies the doctrine of life and faith, thus religion. (Here will be presented only what is shown in Arcana Coelestia respecting the signification of "tribes," namely, that the twelve tribes of Israel represented and thence signified all truths and goods in the complex, n. 3858, 3926, 4060, 6335; that the twelve apostles of the Lord have a like signification, n. 2129, 3354, 3488, 6397; that there were twelve because "twelve" signifies all, n. 577, 2089, 2129, 2130, 3272, 3858, 3913. Because the twelve tribes represented and thus signified all the truths and goods in the complex they therefore represented heaven and the church, n. 6337, 6637, 7836, 7891, 7996. That the twelve tribes signify various things according to the order in which they are named, thus in different ways all things of heaven and the church, n. 3862, 3926, 3939, 4603 seq., 6337, 6640, 10335; therefore responses could be given and were given by the Urim and Thummim, where the names of the twelve tribes of Israel were engraven on precious stones, n. 3858, 6335, 6640, 9863, 9865, 9873, 9874, 9905)

Arcana Coelestia # 5708

5708. 'Five measures more' means that it was much increased. This is clear from the meaning of 'five' as much, dealt with below; and from the meaning of 'measures' as states of truth received from good, dealt with in 3104. As regards 'five', this is a number which can mean little, or else something, or even much. Whatever its specific meaning, this stems from its relationship with the number of which it is a factor, 5291. When it is a factor of ten, much the same as ten, but in a smaller degree, is implied, five being half the number ten. For just as compound numbers have a similar meaning to the simple ones of which they are the product, 5291, 5335, so do divisors have a similar meaning to the compound numbers they divide, as with the relationship of five to ten, also to twenty, as well as to a hundred, a thousand, and so on. 'Ten' means what is full and complete, see 3107, 4638. 'Five measures more' were given to Benjamin than to the rest of his brothers on account of what was meant by this in the spiritual sense. Ten measures could not be given because that amount would have been far too much. The ancients knew from what had been handed down to them from the Most Ancient Church the meanings that certain numbers carried; they therefore used those numbers whenever something cropped up, the meaning of which could be conveyed by those numbers, as is the case with five here. At other times they employed many other numbers, such as three to mean what was complete from start to finish, seven to mean what was holy, or twelve to mean all things in their entirety.
