Exodo 26

Studie

   

1 Bukod dito'y gagawin mo ang tabernakulo na may sangpung tabing; na linong pinili, at bughaw, at kulay-ube, at pula, na may mga querubin na gawa ng bihasang manggagawa, iyong gagawin.

2 Ang magiging haba ng bawa't tabing ay dalawang pu't walong siko, at ang luwang ng bawa't tabing ay apat na siko: lahat ng tabing ay magkakaroon ng isang kasukatan.

3 Limang tabing ay papagsusugpunging isa't isa; at ang ibang limang tabing ay papagsusugpunging isa't isa.

4 At gagawa ka ng mga presilyang bughaw sa gilid ng isang tabing sa hangganan ng pagkakasugpong, at gayon din gagawin mo sa gilid ng ikalawang tabing na nasa ikalawang pagkakasugpong.

5 Limang pung presilya ang iyong gagawin sa isang tabing, at limang pung presilya ang iyong gagawin sa gilid ng tabing na nasa ikalawang pagkakasugpong; ang mga presilya ay magkakatapat na isa't isa.

6 At limang pung pangawit na ginto ang iyong gagawin at pagsusugpungin mo ang mga tabing sa pamamagitan ng mga kawit; at magiging isa lamang.

7 At gagawa ka ng mga tabing na balahibo ng kambing na pinaka tolda sa ibabaw ng tabernakulo: labing isang tabing ang iyong gagawin.

8 Ang magiging haba ng bawa't tabing ay tatlong pung siko, at ang luwang ng bawa't tabing ay apat na siko: ang labing isang tabing ay magkakaroon ng isang sukat.

9 At iyong papagsusugpungin ang limang tabing, at gayon din ang anim na tabing, at iyong ititiklop ang ikaanim na tabing sa harapan ng tabernakulo.

10 At limang pung presilya ang iyong gagawin sa tagiliran ng isang tabing na nasa hangganan ng pagkakasugpong, at limang pung presilya sa tagiliran ng ikalawang pagkakasugpong.

11 At gagawa ka ng limang pung pangawit na tanso, at ikakabit mo ang mga pangawit sa mga presilya at pagsusugpungin mo ang tolda upang maging isa.

12 At ang dakong nakalawit na nalalabi sa mga tabing ng tolda, na siyang kalahati ng tabing na nalalabi ay ilalaylay sa likuran ng tabernakulo.

13 At ang siko ng isang dako at ang siko ng kabilang dako niyaong nalalabi sa haba ng mga tabing ng tolda, ay ilalaylay sa mga tagiliran ng tabernakulo, sa dakong ito at sa dakong yaon, upang takpan.

14 At gagawa ka ng isang pangtakip sa tolda na balat ng lalaking tupa na tininang pula, at isang pangtakip na balat ng poka, sa ibabaw.

15 At igagawa mo ng mga tabla ang tabernakulo, na kahoy na akasia na mga patayo.

16 Sangpung siko ang magiging haba ng isang tabla, at isang siko at kalahati ang luwang ng bawa't tabla.

17 Dalawang mitsa magkakaroon ang bawa't tabla na nagkakasugpong na isa't isa: ang gagawin mo sa lahat ng tabla ng tabernakulo.

18 At igagawa mo ng mga tabla ang tabernakulo: dalawang pung tabla sa tagilirang timugan sa dakong timugan.

19 At gagawa ka ng apat na pung tungtungang pilak upang ilagay sa ilalim ng dalawang pung tabla, dalawang tungtungan sa bawa't tabla na ukol sa kaniyang dalawang mitsa, at dalawang tungtungan sa ilalim ng ibang tabla na ukol sa kaniyang dalawang mitsa:

20 At sa ikalawang tagiliran ng tabernakulo, sa dakong hilagaan, ay dalawang pung tabla:

21 At ang kanilang apat na pung tungtungang pilak; dalawang tungtungan sa ilalim ng isang tabla, at dalawang tungtungan sa ilalim ng kabilang tabla.

22 At sa dakong hulihan ng tabernakulo, sa dakong kalunuran ay igagawa mo ng anim na tabla.

23 At igagawa mo ng dalawang tabla ang mga sulok ng tabernakulo sa dakong hulihan.

24 At pagpapatungin sa dakong ibaba, at gayon din na maugnay sa itaas niyaon sa isang argolya; gayon ang gagawin sa dalawa; para sa dalawang sulok.

25 At magkakaroon ng walong tabla, at ang kanilang mga tungtungang pilak ay labing anim na tungtungan: dalawang tungtungan sa ilalim ng isang tabla, at dalawang tungtungan sa ilalim ng kabilang tabla.

26 At gagawa ka ng mga barakilan, na kahoy na akasia; lima sa mga tabla ng isang tagiliran ng tabernakulo;

27 At limang barakilan sa mga tabla ng kabilang tagiliran ng tabernakulo, at limang barakilan sa mga tabla ng tagiliran ng tabernakulo sa dakong hulihan, na dakong kalunuran.

28 At ang gitnang barakilan ay daraan sa kalagitnaan ng mga tabla mula sa isang dulo hanggang sa kabila.

29 At iyong babalutin ng ginto ang mga tabla, at gigintuin mo ang kanilang mga argolya na pagdaraanan ng mga barakilan: at iyong babalutin ng ginto ang mga barakilan.

30 At iyong itatayo ang tabernakulo ayon sa anyo niyaon, na ipinakita sa iyo sa bundok.

31 At gagawa ka ng isang lambong na bughaw at kulay-ube, at pula at linong pinili: na may mga querubing mainam ang pagkayari:

32 At iyong isasampay sa apat na haliging akasia na balot ng ginto, na pati ng kanilang mga pangipit ay ginto rin: na nakapatong sa ibabaw ng apat na tungtungang pilak.

33 At iyong ibibitin ang lambong sa ilalim ng mga pangalawit, at iyong ipapasok doon sa loob ng lambong ang kaban ng patotoo: at paghihiwalayin sa inyo ng lambong ang dakong banal at ang kabanalbanalang dako.

34 At iyong ilalagay ang luklukan ng awa sa ibabaw ng kaban ng patotoo sa kabanalbanalang dako.

35 At iyong ilalagay ang dulang sa labas ng lambong, at ang kandelero ay sa tapat ng dulang sa tagiliran ng tabernakulo na dakong timugan: at ang dulang ay ilalagay mo sa dakong hilagaan.

36 At igagawa mo ng isang tabing ang pintuan ng tolda na kayong bughaw at kulay-ube, at pula, at linong pinili, na yari ng mangbuburda.

37 At igagawa mo ang tabing ng limang haliging akasia at babalutin mo ng ginto; na ang sima ng mga yaon ay ginto rin: at ipagbububo mo ng limang tungtungan.

9686. And thou shalt make a covering for the door of the Tent. That this signifies the intermediate that unites the second or middle heaven with the first or ultimate heaven, is evident from the signification of the “covering,” as being the intermediate that unites this heaven, which is represented by the Tent of meeting, with the heaven represented by the court, which is treated of in the following chapter. For as “the veil” between the holy and the holy of holies signified the uniting intermediate between the inmost or third heaven and the middle or second heaven, so this “covering” signifies the like between the middle or second heaven and the first or ultimate heaven. That there are three heavens, and that two of them were represented by the Habitation that was inside the veil and the Habitation that was outside the veil, has been shown above; and that the first or ultimate heaven is represented by the court, will of the Lord’s Divine mercy be shown in the following chapter. The entrance from the one heaven into the other is signified by “the door” where the covering was. That a “door” signifies entrance, see n. 2145, 2152, 2356, 2385; and hence communication (n. 8989); wherefore “the covering” at the entrance, which was in the place of a door, denotes the intermediate that communicates and unites.

Arcana Coelestia # 8989

8989. And he shall bring him to the door, or unto the door post. That this signifies a state of communication of truth confirmed and implanted with spiritual good, is evident from the signification of a “door,” as being the introduction of truth to good (see n. 2356, 2385), here of truth confirmed and implanted, which is signified by a Hebrew manservant after a service of six years (n. 8976, 8984), and as “a door” denotes introduction, it also denotes communication, for one room communicates with another by means of a door; and from the signification of “door-post,” as being the conjunction of such truth with good, for a door-post stands between two rooms and joins them together. Who cannot see that this ritual for the menservants who remain contains in it some secret, and indeed a Divine one? for it was dictated and commanded by Jehovah from Mount Sinai. They who do not believe that there is anything more holy and Divine in the Word than that which appears in the letter, must needs wonder that these and many other things contained in this chapter and in the following chapters were dictated by Jehovah in a living voice; for in the letter they appear to be such things as are contained in the laws of nations-as this concerning menservants-that one who did not wish to go forth from service should be brought to a door or to a door-post, and should have his ear bored through with an awl by his master. In the sense of the letter this does not savor of anything Divine; nevertheless it is most Divine; but this does not appear except through the internal sense. The internal sense is that they who are in mere truths and not in the corresponding good, but yet are in the delight of the remembrance of spiritual goods (n. 8986, 8987), have some communication and conjunction with spiritual good.

[2] This was represented by the ear of the servant being bored through at a door or at a door-post by his master; for “a door” denotes communication, and “a door-post” conjunction; the “ear” denotes obedience; and boring it through with an awl is representative of the state in which he would remain. Thus do the angels perceive these things who are with a man who is reading this word. For the angels do not think of a door or of a door-post, nor of an ear and its boring, nor even of a manservant; but instead thereof they think of the aforesaid communication and conjunction. For the angels are in the understanding of such things, because they are in light; and the things presented to them are spiritual and heavenly, not natural and worldly as are the things contained in the sense of the letter of the Word; for the sense of the letter of the Word is natural and worldly, but its internal sense is spiritual and heavenly; the literal sense is for men, the internal sense is for the angels, consequently there is a communication and conjunction of heaven with man by means of the Word.

[3] In order that the arcana which are contained in this procedure with menservants that remain with their master may be opened still further, it must be told whence it is that “a door” and “a door-post” signify communication and conjunction. Angels and spirits have habitations which appear quite like those which are in the world (see n. 1116, 1626-1628, 1631, 4622), and-what is a secret-each and all things that appear in their habitations are significative of spiritual things; for they flow forth from the spiritual things which are in heaven, and which are consequently in their minds. Communications of truth with good are there presented to view by means of doors, and conjunctions by means of door-posts, and other things by the rooms themselves, by the courts, by the windows, and by the various adornments. That this is so, a man at this day, especially one who is merely natural, cannot believe, because such things are not manifest to the senses of the body. Nevertheless that such things were seen by the prophets when their interiors had been opened into heaven, is evident from the Word. They have also been perceived and seen by me a thousand times. I have moreover frequently heard them say, when their thoughts were in communication with me, that “the doors of their rooms were opened,” and when they did not communicate, that they “were closed.”

[4] From this it is that mention is made of “doors” in the Word, where communication is treated of, as in Isaiah:

Go, My people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy door after thee; hide thyself as for a little moment, until the anger be overpast (Isaiah 26:20).

“To shut the door after oneself until the anger be overpast” denotes no communication with evils, which are “the anger” (see n. 3614, 5034, 5798, 6358, 6359, 6997, 8284, 8483).

In Malachi:

Shall He receive faces from you? said Jehovah Zebaoth. Who is there even among you that would rather shut the doors? and not kindle a light upon Mine altar in vain (Malachi 1:9-10).

“To shut the doors” denotes not to communicate with holy or Divine things.

In Zechariah:

Open thy doors O Lebanon, that the fire may devour thy cedars (Zech. 11:1).

“To open the doors” denotes to afford a passage or communication.

[5] In David:

He commanded the skies from above; He set open the doors of the heavens (Psalms 78:23).

“To set open the doors of the heavens” denotes to give communication with the truths and goods which are from the Lord in the heavens. Again:

I have chosen to stand at the door in the house of my God, rather than dwell in the tents of wickedness (Psalms 84:10).

“To stand at the door” denotes to communicate abroad with good, which is “the house of God” (n. 3720). Again:

Lift up your heads, O ye gates; be ye lifted up, ye doors of the world; that the King of glory may come in (Psalms 24:7, 9).

“The doors of the world being lifted up” denotes the opening and elevation of hearts to the Lord, who is “the King of glory,” and so to give communication, that is, that He may flow in with the good of charity and with the truth of faith. The Lord is called “the King of glory” from the truth which is from good.

[6] In Isaiah:

Jehovah said to His anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have holden, to subdue nations before him, and I will loose the loins of kings: to open the doors before him, and the gates shall not be shut; I will go before thee, and make the crooked places straight. And I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that thou mayest know that I Jehovah, who have called thee by thy name, am the God of Israel (Isaiah 45:1-3);

speaking of the Lord as to His Human, who in the representative sense is “Cyrus;” to “open the doors before him” denotes to give entrance to the Divine Itself. Hence it is that even as to His Human He is called “God,” here “the God of Israel.”

[7] In John:

Behold I have set before thee an open door, which no one can shut; for thou hast a little power, and hast kept My word (Revelation 3:8).

“To set an open door” denotes communication with heaven. In the same:

After these things I saw, and behold a door opened In heaven. I heard, Come up hither, that I may show thee the things which must come to pass hereafter (Revelation 4:1).

Here “a door” plainly denotes communication, because it is said of the revelation which he was about to receive from heaven. From this also it is plain that communication is there represented by a door, as was said above. In the same:

Behold I stand at the door, and knock; if anyone hear My voice and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with Me (Revelation 3:20).

Here also “a door” plainly denotes entrance and communication with heaven, where the Lord is, and thus with the Lord.

[8] In like manner in Matthew:

The bridegroom came, and the virgins went in to the wedding, and the door was shut. At last came the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us. But He answering said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not (Matthew 25:10-12).

What these words signify in the internal sense, see at n. 4635-4638, namely, that “the virgins” denote those who are within the church; “to have oil in their lamps” denotes the good of charity in the truths of faith; and “not to have oil in their lamps” denotes to have the truths of faith, and no good of charity therein; to these latter the door is said to be “shut,” because they do not communicate with heaven, that is, through heaven with the Lord. Communication with heaven, and through heaven, is effected by means of the good of charity and of love, but not truths, which are called the truths of faith, without good therein; and therefore these latter are called “foolish virgins,” but the former “prudent virgins.”

[9] So in Luke:

Many shall seek to enter, but shall not be able. From the time when the master of the house is risen up, and hath shut to the door, then shall ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us; but He answering will say to you, I know you not whence ye are. Then shall ye begin to say, We have eaten and drunk in Thy presence, and Thou hast taught in our streets. But He shall say to you, I know you not whence ye are; depart from Me all ye workers of iniquity (Luke 13:24-27).

Here also “a door” plainly denotes entrance and communication, as above. That they to whom the door is shut and who knock thereat and are not let in, are those who are in truths of faith from the Word and not in the good of charity, is signified by “eating and drinking in the presence of the Lord and hearing the Lord teach in the streets,” and yet not living the life of faith; for they who do not live this life are “workers of iniquity.”

[10] In John:

Verily, verily, I say into you, he that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber. But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. I am the door; by Me if anyone shall enter in, he shall be saved (John 10:1-2, 9).

“To enter in by the door” denotes by the truth which is of faith to the good of charity and of love, thus to the Lord, for the Lord is good itself; He is also the truth which introduces, thus likewise the “door,” for faith is from Him.

[11] That by “a door” is signified communication, appears like a metaphorical way of speaking, or like a comparison; but in the Word there are no metaphorical expressions or comparisons, but real correspondences. Even the comparisons therein are made by such things as correspond, as can be seen from what has been said about a door, namely, that doors actually appear in heaven with angels and spirits, and that their opening and shutting are according to the communications. And so in everything else.
