Exodo 27

Studie

   

1 At gagawin mong kahoy ng akasia ang dambana, na limang siko ang haba at limang siko ang luwang; ang dambana ay gagawing parisukat: at ang taas ay magkakaroon ng tatlong siko.

2 At gagawin mo ang mga anyong sungay sa ibabaw ng apat na sulok niyaon: ang mga anyong sungay ay kaputol din, at iyong babalutin ng tanso.

3 At igagawa mo ng kaniyang mga kawa upang magalis ng mga abo, at ng mga pala, at ng mga mangkok, at ng mga pangalawit at ng mga suuban: lahat ng mga kasangkapa'y gagawin mong tanso.

4 At igagawa mo ng isang salang tanso na tila lambat ang yari, at ang ibabaw ng nilambat ay igagawa mo ng apat na argolyang tanso sa apat na sulok niyaon.

5 At ilalagay mo sa ibaba ng gilid ng dambana, sa dakong ibaba, upang ang nilambat ay umabot hanggang sa kalahatian ng dambana.

6 At igagawa mo ng mga pingga ang dambana, mga pinggang kahoy na akasia at babalutin mo ng tanso.

7 At ang mga pingga niyao'y isusuot sa mga argolya, at ang mga pingga ay ilalagay sa dalawang tagiliran ng dambana, pagka dinadala.

8 Gagawin mo ang dambana na kuluong sa pamamagitan ng mga tabla kung paano ang ipinakita sa iyo sa bundok, ay gayon gagawin nila.

9 At iyong gagawin ang looban ng tabernakulo: sa tagilirang timugan na dakong timugan ay magkakaroon ng mga tabing sa looban na linong pinili, na may isang daang siko ang haba sa isang tagiliran:

10 At ang ihahaligi doo'y dalawang pu, at ang mga tungtungan ng mga yaon ay dalawang pu na tanso; ang mga sima ng mga haligi at ang mga pilete niyaon ay pilak.

11 At gayon din sa tagilirang dakong hilagaan, sa kahabaan ay magkakaroon ng mga tabing na may isang daang siko ang haba, at ang mga haligi ng mga yaon ay dalawangpu, at ang mga tungtungan ng mga yaon ay dalawangpu na tanso; ang mga sima ng mga haligi at ang mga pilete ng mga yaon ay pilak.

12 At sa kaluwangan ng looban sa kalunuran ay magkakaroon ng mga tabing na may limangpung siko: ang haligi ng mga yaon ay sangpu at ang mga tungtungan ng mga yaon ay sangpu.

13 At sa kaluwangan ng looban sa dakong silanganan, sa dakong sinisikatan ng araw, ay magkakaroon ng limangpung siko.

14 Ang mga tabing sa isang dako ng pintuang-daan ay magkakaroon ng labinglimang siko: ang mga haligi ng mga yaon ay tatlo, at ang mga tungtungan ng mga yaon ay tatlo rin.

15 At sa kabilang dako'y magkakaroon ng mga tabing na ma'y labing limang siko: ang mga haligi ng mga yao'y tatlo, at ang mga tungtungan ng mga yao'y tatlo.

16 At sa pintuan ng looban ay magkakaroon ng isang tabing na may dalawang pung siko, na ang kayo'y bughaw, at kulay-ube, at pula, at kayong linong pinili, na yari ng mangbuburda: ang mga haligi ng mga yao'y apat, at ang mga tungtungan ng mga yao'y apat.

17 Lahat ng haligi sa palibot ng looban ay pagsusugpungin ng mga pileteng pilak; ang mga sima ng mga yaon ay pilak, at ang mga tungtungan ng mga yaon ay tanso.

18 Ang haba ng looban ay magkakaroon ng isang daang siko, at ang luwang ay limang pu magpasaan man, at ang taas ay limang siko, kayong linong pinili, at ang mga tuntungan ay tanso.

19 Lahat ng mga kasangkapan ng tabernakulo, sa buong paglilingkod doon, at lahat ng mga tulos niyaon, at lahat ng mga tulos ng looban ay tanso.

20 At iyong iuutos sa mga anak ni Israel na sila'y magdala sa iyo ng taganas na langis ng binayong oliba na pangilawan, upang papagningasing palagi ang ilawan.

21 Sa tabernakulo ng kapisanan sa labas ng lambong na nasa harap ng kaban ng patotoo, ay aayusin yaon ni Aaron at ng kaniyang mga anak mula sa hapon hanggang sa umaga sa harap ng Panginoon: magiging palatuntunan sa buong panahon ng kanilang lahi sa ikagagaling ng mga anak ni Israel.

Morning

  
Two gorgeous red poppies -- one popped, and one just about to.

Morning comes with the rising of the sun, and the sun -- which gives life to the earth with its warmth and light -- represents the Lord in His divinity, bringing spiritual life through love and wisdom. Thus, the morning represents the coming of the Lord into our lives, and all the things that flow from it: the love, joy and enlightenment He brings; the peace and tranquility of passing the spiritual obscurity of night; the anticipation of the learning and usefulness of a new day; and the awareness of The Lord's renewed presence.

8812. 'When it came to be morning' means a state when they were governed by good. This is clear from the meaning of 'morning' as a state of the good of love, dealt with in 8426. From these details - that Jehovah, that is, the Lord, came down onto Mount Sinai on the third day, and also in the morning of that day - it is plainly evident that this event was representative of some Divine reality in heaven which no one can come to know about except from the correspondence of such things as arise in the natural world with realities in the spiritual world, and therefore from the spiritual meaning of those things. This is so here so far as the meaning of 'morning' and 'the third day' are concerned. 'The third day' means the end of a former state, and it does so because 'three' means what is complete from start to finish, 8790; and 'morning' means a state of the good of love, because the sun - the sun in the next life which gives light to angels and the whole of heaven - is the Lord. The fire there is His Divine Love, which gives vital heat to all that lives, and the light there is Divine Truth which enlightens all who receive it. The sun there is altogether different from the sun in the world, whose fire is fire and not love, and whose radiating light is light and not truth.

[2] All this goes to show what kind of effects the fire and also the light coming from the sun in the world produce, and what kind of effects the fire and light coming from the sun of heaven produce. The sun in the world provides heat and light without life, whereas the sun in heaven provides heat and light together with life. The latter, being provided by the sun of heaven, are therefore called spiritual, because they hold life within them, whereas the former, which are provided by the sun of the world, are called natural and do not hold life within them. The life in living things that is recognized in their heat and indicated by it does not come from the heat of the sun in the world but from the heat of the sun in heaven. When the latter heat enters heat in the world it produces that effect; the body feels it as elemental heat, but this has vital heat in it, which has its origin in the love that is heat from the sun of heaven. The truth that vital heat springs from a source other than the sun in the world, and that it owes its origin to love and exists according to the amount and the character of that love within it, anyone is able to know provided that he is prepared to think about it properly. Anyone can know except those who do not acknowledge anything internal in the human being and attribute everything to natural forces.

[3] Since therefore heat from the sun in heaven, which is the Lord, is the good of love, and the light from it is the truth of faith, one may see what is meant by 'morning', and what by 'midday', 'evening', and 'night' in the next life. They are states of good and truth or love and faith, 'morning' being a state of the good of love, 'midday' a state of the truth of faith, 'evening and night' a deprivation of them, which is ignorance and blindness in insights that belong to faith, and also slowness and coldness in feelings that belong to heavenly love.

[4] Furthermore the situation with the sun of heaven is as it is with the sun in the world, in that it is motionless and does not bring about those states by any wheeling round of its own. Rather the things around it bring them about, just as a planet travelling round the sun and at the same time rotating on its axis produces changes. The appearance therefore is that those changes are attributable to the sun, but in reality they are not attributable to the sun, only to the planet going round it. So also in heaven. Changes of state there, to which morning, midday, evening, and night correspond, are not attributable to the sun there, for that sun is always radiating heat and light, that is, the good of love and the truth of faith. Instead those changes are attributable to the recipients, that is to say, to the angels and spirits, who move through a regular cycle of such changes as their life progresses. At one point it is morning, that is, they are filled with the good of love; at another it is midday, that is, they are enlightened with the truth of faith; and at yet another it is evening and night, that is, these gifts become vague and dull with them.

[5] The reason why the situation in the world is as it is in heaven, except for the difference that in the world the regular cycle consists of states belonging to the times of day, while in heaven it consists of states of life, is that all things in the world have been created in the image of those in heaven. For natural things arise from spiritual ones as effects from their causes. Consequently there is a correspondence of all things in the world with those in heaven, and therefore the whole natural order is nothing other than a theatre representative of the Lord's kingdom, 3483, 4939, 8211.
