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.

9930. 'And you shall make a plate of pure gold' means enlightenment received from the Lord's Divine Good. This is clear from the meaning of 'a plate' as enlightenment; and from the meaning of 'gold' as the good of love, at this point the Lord's Divine Good since 'Holiness to Jehovah' was inscribed on the plate. For the meaning of 'gold' as the good of love, see 113, 1551, 1552, 5658, 6914, 6917, 8932, 9490, 9510, 9874, 9881. 'A plate' means enlightenment on account of its brightness, for light shone from the gold on Aaron's forehead, and all brightness is a sign of enlightenment, as that in the heavens is which radiates from the Lord as the Sun. Enlightenment there consists in wisdom and intelligence derived from Divine Truth emanating from the Lord; for this Truth brings light to the interiors of those who are there. Their interiors answer to the understanding part of a person's mind, which is enlightened by the Lord when the person has a perception of the Church's and heaven's truth and goodness, the understanding being the subject that receives; for there is no reception without a subject. 1 The reason why 'the plate' means enlightenment from the Lord's Divine Good is that 'Holiness to Jehovah' was inscribed on it, and it was placed on the front of the turban which was on Aaron's head. Holiness which comes from Jehovah is Divine Truth emanating from the Lord's Divine Good, 6788, 8302, 8330, 9229, 9680, 9820. In order to represent the radiance or enlightenment that result in intelligence and wisdom the plate was tied to the front of the turban.

[2] Since 'the plate' meant enlightenment received from the Lord's Divine Good it was also called 'the plate of the crown of holiness' as well as 'the crown of holiness'; for a crown is a representative sign of Divine Good, and holiness is the Divine Truth emanating from that Good, as has been stated above. The fact that it was called the plate of the crown of holiness is evident further on in this Book of Exodus,

Finally they made the plate of the crown of holiness from pure gold; and they wrote an inscription on it, like the engraving of a signet, 2 Holiness to Jehovah. Exodus 39:30.

The fact that it was also called the crown of holiness is evident elsewhere in Exodus,

You shall place the turban on his head, and put the crown of holiness onto the turban. Exodus 29:6.

And in Leviticus,

He placed the turban on his head, and placed on the turban, on the front of it, 3 the plate of gold, the crown of holiness. Leviticus 8:9.

[3] The fact that the crown represented Divine Good from which Divine Truth emanates is clear from the crowns that the kings wore. For the kings represented the Lord in respect of Divine Truth, see 2015, 2069, 3009, 4581, 4966, 5044, 5068, 6148, and this was why they wore a crown on their head and held a sceptre in their hand, government animated by Divine Good being meant by the crown, and government inspired by Divine Truth by the sceptre.

[4] This meaning of 'the crown' is clear from the following places: In David,

I will make the horn of David to spring forth, I will make ready a lamp for My Anointed. His enemies I will clothe with shame, but upon Himself His crown will flourish. Psalms 132:17-18.

'David' here is the Lord, 1888, as is 'the Anointed', 3008, 3009. His 'horn' is power, 2832, 9081; 'lamp' is Divine Truth, which is the source of intelligence, 9548, 9783; 'crown' is Divine Good, which is the source of wisdom and also the mainspring of His government. It says that His crown, meaning wisdom, is going 'to flourish' on account of what He acquired to Himself in the world, to His Humanity, through conflicts with and victories over the hells, 8273, 9528 (end), the hells being His enemies who will be clothed with shame.

[5] In the same author,

You are angry 4 with Your Anointed, You have condemned His crown right down to the ground. 5 Psalms 89:38-39.

Here also 'the Anointed' stands for the Lord. 'Anger' stands for a state involving temptations, which was a state when He was engaged in conflicts with the hells. An expression of grief in that state is what the anger and condemnation describe (a final phase of temptation seems like condemnation), such as with the Lord's last grievous cry on the Cross that He was forsaken. For the Cross was the last of His temptations or conflicts with the hells; and after that last temptation He took on Divine Good, and in so doing united His Divine Human to Deity itself, which was within Him.

[6] In Isaiah,

On that day Jehovah Zebaoth will be a crown of adornment and a turban of beauty for the remnant of His people. Isaiah 28:5.

'A crown of adornment' stands for wisdom, which is a discernment of good from God, and 'a turban of beauty' for intelligence, which is an understanding of truth from that good. What is stated in this verse has regard to things among the people which were Divine, 'people' meaning the Church since they were where the Church existed.

[7] In the same prophet,

For Zion's sake I will not keep silent, and for Jerusalem's sake I will not rest, until her righteousness goes forth as brightness, and her salvation as a lamp [that] burns. And you will be a crown of beauty in the hand of Jehovah, and a royal turban in the hand of your God. Isaiah 62:1, 3.

'Zion' and 'Jerusalem' are used to mean the Church, 'Zion' the celestial Church, and 'Jerusalem' the spiritual Church that extends from it. 'A crown of beauty' is wisdom, which is a discernment of good, and 'a royal turban' is intelligence, which is an understanding of truth. And since 'a crown' means wisdom, or discernment of good, it is said to be 'in the hand of Jehovah'; and since 'a turban' means intelligence, or an understanding of truth, it is said to be 'in the hand of God'. For when the subject is good the name 'Jehovah' is used, and when it is truth the name 'God' is used, 2586, 2769, 6905.

[8] In Jeremiah,

Say to the king and queen mother, 6 Lower yourselves, sit down, for the adornment of your head, the crown of your beauty, has come down. Jeremiah 13:18.

'The crown of beauty' stands for wisdom which is a discernment of good derived from Divine Truth; for 'beauty' is the Church's Divine Truth, 9815. In the same prophet,

The joy of our heart has ceased, our dance has been turned into mourning. The crown of our head has fallen. Lamentations 5:15-16.

'Crown of the head' stands for wisdom which those who belong to the Church derive from Divine Truth, which sets them above all other peoples and gives them a kind of authority.

[9] In Ezekiel,

I put 7 a jewel on your nose, and earrings on your ears, and a crown of adornment on your head. Ezekiel 16:12.

This refers to the establishment of the Church. 'A jewel on the nose' stands for the perception of good; 'earrings on the ears' for the perception of truth, and obedience; and 'a crown of adornment on the head' for wisdom resulting from such perception. In Job,

He has withdrawn glory from me, and has removed the crown of my head. Job 19:9.

'Glory' stands for intelligence, which is an understanding of Divine Truth, 9429, 'crown of the head' for resulting wisdom.

[10] In the Book of Revelation,

On the thrones I saw twenty-four elders seated, clad in white garments, who had on their heads crowns of gold. They fell down before the one seated on the throne, and worshipped the one who lives for ever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne. Revelation 4:4, 10.

'Twenty-four elders' means all those who are governed by good that is a product of truths, and in the abstract sense all forms of good that result from truths, 6524, 9404. 'Thrones' are truths from God, 5313, 6397, 8625, 9039; 'crowns of gold on their heads' are representative signs of wisdom received from God, and because it is received from Him they cast their crowns before the one seated on the throne.

[11] Since the good of wisdom is acquired through conflicts brought about by temptations, in which the truths of faith are used to fight with, those who fought against evils and falsities and were victorious were rewarded with crowns. Therefore also the crowns of martyrdom were emblems provided by the Lord which are signs of dominion over evils. The fact that crowns are the rewards of victory over evils, and that crowns consequently mean forms of the good of wisdom because these are rewards, is also clear from the Book of Revelation,

I saw, and behold, a white horse, and he who sat on it had a bow; to him a crown was given; he went out conquering and to conquer. Revelation 6:2.

'A white horse and he who sat on it' is the Lord in respect of the Word, 2760-2762; and 'a bow' is teachings of truth that are used to fight with, 2686, 2709. From this it is evident that since the Lord is the subject 'a crown' means Divine Good, which is the reward of victory.

[12] And in another place,

Afterwards I saw, and behold, a white cloud, and on the cloud one was sitting, like the Son of Man, having on His head a crown of gold, and in His hand a sharp sickle. Revelation 14:14.

'A white cloud' stands for the literal sense of the Word, 4060, 4391, 5922, 6343 (end), 6752, 8781; 'the Son of Man' stands for Divine Truth which emanates from the Lord, 9807; 'a crown of gold' for Divine Good from which Divine Truth springs; and 'a sharp sickle' for the dispersal of evil and falsity. In another place,

Be faithful right through to death, and I will give you the crown of life. Revelation 2:10.

And in another,

Behold, I come quickly. Hold on to what you have, that no one may take your crown. Revelation 3:11.

'Crown' stands for good that results from truths, thus for wisdom since this is the discernment of the good of love resulting from the truths of faith. From all this it may now be seen what a crown means, and from this what is meant by a crown of holiness, which was the plate of gold on which 'Holiness to Jehovah' was engraved.
