Exodo 29

Studie

   

1 At ito ang bagay na iyong gagawin sa kanila na ibukod sila, upang sila'y mangasiwa sa akin sa katungkulang saserdote: kumuha ka ng isang guyang toro at ng dalawang lalaking tupang walang kapintasan.

2 At tinapay na walang lebadura, at mga munting tinapay na walang lebadura na hinaluan ng langis, at mga manipis na tinapay na walang lebadura na pinahiran ng langis: na gagawin mo sa mainam na harina ng trigo.

3 At iyong isisilid sa isang bakol, at dadalhin mo na nasa bakol, sangpu ng toro at ng dalawang tupang lalake.

4 At si Aaron at ang kaniyang mga anak ay iyong dadalhin sa pintuan ng tabernakulo ng kapisanan, at iyong huhugasan sila ng tubig.

5 At iyong kukunin ang mga kasuutan, at iyong isusuot kay Aaron ang tunika niya, at ang balabal ng epod, at ang epod, at ang pektoral, at bibigkisan mo ng mainam na pagkayaring pamigkis ng epod:

6 At iyong ipuputong ang mitra sa kaniyang ulo, at ipapatong mo ang banal na korona sa mitra.

7 Saka mo kukunin ang langis na pangpahid, at ibubuhos mo sa ibabaw ng kaniyang ulo, at papahiran mo ng langis siya.

8 At iyong dadalhin ang kaniyang mga anak, at susuutan mo ng mga tunika sila.

9 At iyong bibigkisan sila ng mga pamigkis, si Aaron at ang kaniyang mga anak, at itatali mo ang mga tiara sa kanikaniyang ulo: at tatamuhin nila ang pagkasaserdote na pinakapalatuntunang palagi: at iyong papagbabanalin si Aaron at ang kaniyang mga anak.

10 At iyong dadalhin ang toro sa harap ng tabernakulo ng kapisanan: at ipapatong ni Aaron at ng kaniyang mga anak ang kanilang kamay sa ulo ng toro.

11 At iyong papatayin ang toro sa harap ng Panginoon, sa pintuan ng tabernakulo ng kapisanan.

12 At kukuha ka ng dugo ng toro, at ilalagay mo ng iyong daliri sa ibabaw ng mga anyong sungay ng dambana; at iyong ibubuhos ang lahat ng dugo sa paanan ng dambana.

13 At kukunin mo ang buong taba na nakababalot sa bituka, at ang mga lamak ng atay, at ang dalawang bato, at ang taba na nasa ibabaw ng mga yaon, at susunugin mo sa ibabaw ng dambana.

14 Datapuwa't ang laman ng toro, at ang balat, at ang dumi ay iyong susunugin sa apoy sa labas ng kampamento: handog nga dahil sa kasalanan.

15 Kukunin mo rin ang isang lalaking tupa; at ipapatong ni Aaron at ng kaniyang mga anak ang kanilang kamay sa ulo ng lalaking tupa.

16 At iyong papatayin ang lalaking tupa, at iyong kukunin ang dugo, at iyong iwiwisik sa palibot sa ibabaw ng dambana.

17 At iyong kakatayin ang tupa at huhugasan mo ang bituka, at ang mga hita, at ipapatong mo sa mga pinagputolputol at sa ulo.

18 At iyong susunugin ang buong tupa sa ibabaw ng dambana: handog na susunugin nga sa Panginoon; pinaka masarap na amoy na handog sa Panginoon, na pinaraan sa apoy.

19 At kukunin mo ang isang tupa; at ipapatong ni Aaron at ng kaniyang mga anak ang kanilang kamay sa ulo ng tupa.

20 Saka mo papatayin ang tupa, at kukunin mo ang dugo, at ilalagay mo sa pingol ng kanang tainga ni Aaron, at sa pingol ng kanang tainga ng kaniyang mga anak, at sa hinlalaki ng kanilang kanang kamay, at sa hinlalaki ng kanilang kanang paa, at iwiwisik mo ang dugong labis sa ibabaw ng dambana sa palibot.

21 At kukuha ka ng dugo na nasa ibabaw ng dambana, at ng langis na pangpahid, at iwiwisik mo kay Aaron, at sa kaniyang mga suot, at sa kaniyang mga anak na kasama niya: at ikapapaging banal niya at ng kaniyang mga suot, at ng kaniyang mga anak, at ng mga suot ng kaniyang mga anak na kasama niya.

22 Kukunin mo rin naman sa lalaking tupa ang taba, at ang matabang buntot, at ang tabang nakababalot sa mga bituka, at ang mga lamak ng atay, at ang dalawang bato, at ang taba na nasa ibabaw ng mga yaon, at ang kanang hita (sapagka't isang lalaking tupa na itinalaga),

23 At isang malaking tinapay, at isang munting tinapay na nilangisan, at isang manipis na tinapay sa bakol ng tinapay na walang lebadura na nasa harap ng Panginoon:

24 At iyong ilalagay ang kabuoan sa mga kamay ni Aaron, at sa mga kamay ng kaniyang mga anak; at iyong mga luluglugin na pinakahandog na niluglog sa harap ng Panginoon.

25 At iyong kukunin sa kanilang mga kamay, at iyong susunugin sa dambana sa ibabaw ng handog na susunugin, na pinaka masarap na amoy sa harap ng Panginoon: handog nga sa Panginoon na pinaraan sa apoy.

26 At kukunin mo ang dibdib ng tupa na itinalaga ni Aaron, at luglugin mo na pinakahandog na niluglog sa harap ng Panginoon: at magiging iyong bahagi.

27 At iyong ihihiwalay ang dibdib ng handog na niluglog, at ang hita ng handog na itinaas, ang niluglog at ang itinaas, ng lalaking tupa na itinalaga na kay Aaron at sa kaniyang mga anak;

28 At magiging kay Aaron at sa kaniyang mga anak, na pinaka bahagi magpakailan man, na mula sa mga anak ni Israel: sapagka't isang handog na itinaas: at magiging isang handog na itinaas sa ganang mga anak ni Israel, na kinuha sa kanilang mga hain tungkol sa kapayapaan: na dili iba't kanilang handog ngang itinaas sa Panginoon.

29 At ang mga banal na kasuutan ni Aaron ay magiging sa kaniyang mga anak, pagkamatay niya, upang pahiran ng langis sa mga yaon, at upang italaga sa mga yaon.

30 Pitong araw na isusuot ng anak na magiging saserdote nakahalili niya, pagka siya'y pumapasok sa tabernakulo ng kapisanan upang mangasiwa sa dakong banal.

31 At kukunin mo ang lalaking tupa na itinalaga at lulutuin mo ang kaniyang laman sa dakong banal.

32 At kakanin ni Aaron at ng kaniyang mga anak ang laman ng tupa, at ang tinapay na nasa bakol sa pintuan ng tabernakulo ng kapisanan.

33 At kanilang kakanin ang mga bagay na yaon, na ipinangtubos ng sala, upang italaga at pakabanalin sila: datapuwa't hindi kakain niyaon ang sinomang taga ibang lupa, sapagka't mga bagay na banal.

34 At kung may lumabis sa laman na itinalaga, o sa tinapay, hanggang sa kinaumagahan, ay iyo ngang susunugin sa apoy ang labis: hindi kakanin, sapagka't yao'y banal.

35 At ganito mo gagawin kay Aaron, at sa kaniyang mga anak, ayon sa lahat na aking iniutos sa iyo: pitong araw na iyong itatalaga sila.

36 At araw-araw ay maghahandog ka ng toro na pinakahandog, dahil sa kasalanan na pinakapangtubos: at iyong lilinisin ang dambana pagka iyong ipinanggagawa ng katubusan yaon; at iyong papahiran ng langis upang pakabanalin.

37 Pitong araw na iyong tutubusin sa sala ang dambana, at iyong pakakabanalin; at ang dambana ay magiging kabanalbanalan; anomang masagi sa dambana ay magiging banal.

38 Ito nga ang iyong ihahandog sa ibabaw ng dambana: dalawang kordero ng unang taon araw-araw na palagi.

39 Ang isang kordero ay iyong ihahandog sa umaga; at ang isang kordero ay iyong ihahandog sa hapon:

40 At kasama ng isang kordero na iyong ihahandog ang ikasangpung bahagi ng isang efa ng mainam na harina na may halong ikaapat na bahagi ng isang hin ng langis na hinalo; at ang ikaapat na bahagi ng isang hin na alak, ay pinakahandog na inumin.

41 At ang isang kordero ay iyong ihahandog sa hapon, at iyong gagawin ayon sa handog na harina sa umaga, at ayon sa inuming handog niyaon, na pinaka masarap na amoy, na handog nga sa Panginoon na pinaraan sa apoy.

42 Magiging isang palaging handog na susunugin sa buong panahon ng inyong lahi sa pintuan ng tabernakulo ng kapisanan, sa harap ng Panginoon; na aking pakikipagkitaan sa inyo, upang makipagusap ako roon sa iyo.

43 At doo'y makikipagtagpo ako sa mga anak ni Israel: at ang Tolda ay pakakabanalin sa pamamagitan ng aking kaluwalhatian.

44 At aking pakakabanalin ang tabernakulo ng kapisanan, at ang dambana; si Aaron man at ang kaniyang mga anak ay aking papagbabanalin upang mangasiwa sa akin sa katungkulang saserdote.

45 At ako'y tatahan sa gitna ng mga anak ni Israel, at ako'y magiging kanilang Dios.

46 At kanilang makikilala, na ako ang Panginoon nilang Dios, na kumuha sa kanila sa lupain ng Egipto, upang ako'y tumahan sa gitna nila: ako ang Panginoon nilang Dios.

10087. 'And you shall take the breast' means the Divine Spiritual in the heavens, which those in heaven make their own. This is clear from the meaning of 'the breast' as the good of charity, and in the highest sense as the Divine Spiritual, dealt with below. The reason why its being made their own by those in the heavens is meant is that the subject in what follows next is the flesh from the ram and the bread from the basket which were not burned on the altar but were left as a portion for and were eaten by Moses, Aaron, and his sons. By this is meant making it their own, the process of which is described in what follows next. The origin of the meaning of 'the breast' as the good of charity, and in the highest sense as the Divine Spiritual, lies in correspondence. For the human head corresponds to the good of love to the Lord, which is the good of the inmost heaven and is called the Divine Celestial, whereas the breast corresponds to the good of charity, which is the good of the middle or second heaven and is called the Divine Spiritual; and the feet correspond to the good of faith, thus to the good of obedience, which is the good of the lowest heaven and is called the Divine Natural. Regarding this correspondence, see what has been shown above in 10030.

[2] Since the breast because of its correspondence means the good of charity, and the good of charity results from the will to do good, John - who represented that good - leaned on the Lord's breast or in His bosom, John 13:23, 25, by which the Lord's love of that good is meant. For 'leaning on the breast' or 'in the bosom' means loving. Anyone who knows this may also know what the meaning is of the following words which the Lord addressed to Peter and to John,

Jesus said to Simon Peter, Simon son of Jonah, do you love Me? He said, Yes, Lord, You know that I love You. He said to him, Feed My lambs. He said to him again, Simon son of Jonah, do you love Me? He said, Yes, Lord, You know that I love You. He said to him, Feed My sheep. He said to him a third time, Simon son of Jonah, do you love Me? Peter was grieved, therefore he said, Lord, You know all things; You know that I love You. Jesus said to him, Feed My sheep. Truly I say to you, When you were younger you girded yourself and walked where you wished; but when you are old you will stretch out your hands and another will gird you and lead you where you do not wish. When He had said this He said to him, Follow Me. Having turned round Peter saw the disciple whom Jesus loved following, who also had leaned on His breast at the supper. Seeing him Peter said, Lord, what about him? Jesus said to him, If I will that he remain until I come, what is that to you? You follow Me. John 21:15-22.

None can know what these words mean except through the internal sense. This teaches that the Lord's twelve disciples represented all aspects of faith and love in their entirety, just as the twelves tribes of Israel did, and that Peter represented faith, James charity, and John the works or good deeds that flow from charity.

The Lord's twelve disciples represented all aspects of faith and love in their entirety, see 3488, 3858 (end), 6397.

The twelve tribes of Israel had the same representation, 3858, 3926, 4060, 6335, 6640.

Peter represented faith, James charity, and John the works that flow from charity, Prefaces to Genesis 18, 22, and 3750, 4738, 6344 (end).

'The rock', as Peter is also called, means the Lord in respect of faith, 8581.

[3] Faith without charity does not love the Lord; nevertheless it is able to teach about things connected with faith and love, and the things that are the Lord's. This was why the Lord said three times, 'Do you love Me?', and then, 'Feed My lambs' or 'Feed My sheep'. For the same reason He says, 'When you were younger you girded yourself and walked where you wished; but when you are old you will stretch out your hands and another will gird you and lead you where you do not wish', meaning that in its early stages the Church's faith had possessed the good of innocence, like a young child; but when it was in decline, which is the final phase of the Church, faith would not possess that good any longer nor the good of charity, at which point evil and falsity would lead it. All this is what is meant by 'when you are old you will stretch out your hands and another will gird you and lead you where you do not wish', that is, you will pass from freedom into bondage. 'Girding' means being acquainted with and seeing truths in light that flows from good, 9952, and 'walking' leading a life in accord with those truths, 8417, 8420, so that 'girding himself and walking where he wished' means acting in freedom; and people act in freedom when an affection for truth springing from good governs their actions, 2870-2893, 9585-9591, and they are led by the Lord, 9096, 9586, 9589-9591. But 'being girded by another and being led where he did not wish' means being in bondage, and people are in bondage when evil governs their actions, and so they are led by hell, 9096, 9586, 9589-9591. 'Lambs', which the Lord mentions first, are those in whom the good of innocence is present, see 3994; 'sheep', which the Lord mentions the second and third times, are those in whom the good of charity, and faith springing from this, are present, 4169, 4809. Also three means the whole period from beginning to end, 2788, 4495, 7715, 9198; consequently, since the Lord spoke to Peter regarding the Church from its early stages to when it was in decline, He said three times, Do you love Me?

[4] As regards John's following the Lord, this was a sign of the truth that those who perform the good deeds of charity follow the Lord, are loved by the Lord, and do not leave Him, whereas those whose faith is separated from charity not only fail to follow the Lord but are also angered by that truth, as Peter was then; not to mention many more arcana within the words contained in that passage.

From all this it is evident also that leaning on the Lord's breast or in His bosom means being loved by Him, and that this expression is used in reference to those who perform the good deeds of charity. Much the same is meant by carrying in the bosom, Isaiah 40:10-11, and lying in the bosom, 2 Samuel 12:3.

643. As for the meaning itself of these expressions - that 'planks of gopher' means lusts and 'rooms' the two parts of this man - this becomes clear from the Word. Gopher is a wood full of sulphur, as is the fir and others of that group. It is on account of the sulphur in it that it is said to mean lusts, for it catches fire easily. The most ancient people compared and likened those elements that exist with man to gold, silver, bronze, iron, stone, and wood, his inmost celestial to gold, the lower celestial to bronze, and the lowest or bodily descending from this to wood, while the inmost spiritual they compared and likened to silver, the lower spiritual to iron, and the lowest degree of it to stone. When those objects are mentioned in the Word these are the things meant by them in the internal sense, as in Isaiah,

Instead of bronze I will bring gold, and instead of iron I will bring silver, and instead of wood, bronze, and instead of stones, iron. And I will make peace your assessment and righteousness your tax-collectors. Isaiah 60:17.

This refers to the Lord's kingdom in which no such metals exist, but instead celestial and spiritual elements. It is quite clear that the latter are meant because of the reference to peace' and 'righteousness'. Here, gold, bronze, and wood correspond to one another and mean celestial elements or those belonging to the will, as has been stated. Silver, iron, and stone also correspond to one another, and mean spiritual elements or those belonging to the understanding.

[2] In Ezekiel,

They will spoil your riches, they will despoil your merchandise, your stones and your timbers. Ezekiel 26:12.

It is quite clear that 'riches' and 'merchandise' do not mean material riches and merchandise, but celestial and spiritual ones. So also 'stones' and 'timbers' - 'stones' being things of the understanding and 'timbers' those of the will. In Habakkuk,

The stone cries out from the wall, and the beam out of the woodwork answers back. Habakkuk 2:11.

'Stone' stands for the lowest degree of the understanding, and 'wood' for the lowest degree of the will, which answers back when anything is drawn from sensory knowledge. In the same prophet,

Woe to him who says to a piece of wood, Awake! or to a dumb stone, Arise, this will teach! Behold, this is bound in gold and silver, and there is no spirit 1 at all in the midst of it. But Jehovah is in His holy temple. Habakkuk 2:19-20.

Here also 'wood' stands for evil desire, 'stone' for the lowest degree of the understanding, and therefore 'being dumb' and 'teaching' are used in reference to that stone. 'No spirit in the midst of it' means that it represents nothing celestial or spiritual, like a temple in which there is stone and wood, overlaid with gold and silver, existing with people who give no thought to what those things represent.

[3] In Jeremiah,

Our waters we drink for silver, our timbers come for a price. Lamentations 5:4.

Here 'waters' and 'silver' mean things of the understanding, 'timbers' those of the will. In the same prophet,

Who say to wood, You are my father; and to a stone, You gave birth to us. Jeremiah 2:27.

Here 'wood' stands for desire which belongs to the will, from which there is conception, and 'stone' for sensory knowledge, from which there is birth. All through the Prophets therefore 'serving wood and stone' stands for images carved out of wood or stone, which means that people were slaves to evil desires and to delusions. The Prophets also speak of 'committing adultery with wood and stone', as in Jeremiah 3:9. In Hosea,

The people inquire of their piece of wood, and their staff makes declaration to them, for the spirit of whoredom has led them astray. Hosea 4:12.

This stands for their inquiring of a wooden image, or evil desires. In Isaiah,

The tophet has been prepared since yesterday. Its pyre is fire and much wood; the breath of Jehovah is like a stream of burning brimstone. Isaiah 30:33.

Here 'fire', brimstone', and 'wood' stand for filthy desires.

[4] In general 'wood' means those elements which constitute the lowest parts of the will. Precious kinds of wood, such as cedar and so on, mean elements that are good - for example, the cedar timbers in the Temple, or the cedarwood used in cleansing leprosy, Leviticus 14:4, 6-7, or the wood cast into the bitter waters at Marah, by which the waters were made sweet, Exodus 15:25. These in the Lord's Divine mercy will be dealt with in their proper places. Non-precious kinds of wood however, also those which were made into images, and those that were used for a pyre as well, and the like, mean evil desires, as do planks of gopher here on account of the brimstone or sulphur in them. As in Isaiah,

The day of Jehovah's vengeance - her streams will be turned into pitch, and her dust into brimstone, and her land will become burning pitch. Isaiah 34:8-9.

'Pitch' stands for dreadful delusions, 'brimstone' for filthy desires.
