14
At pagka ang sinoman ay magtatalaga ng kaniyang bahay upang maging banal sa Panginoon, ay hahalagahan nga ng saserdote, kung mabuti o masama: ayon sa ihahalaga ng saserdote ay magiging gayon.
Levitico 27:14
Arcana Coelestia # 6149
6149. 'For the priests had a fixed portion from Pharaoh' means that this had therefore been decreed by the natural, which was under the control of the internal. This is clear from the meaning of a 'fixed portion' as that which has been decreed, and from the representation of 'Pharaoh" as the natural in general, dealt with in 5160, 5799, 6015. And since that decree made in the natural originated in the internal, the description 'under the control of the internal' is added, which control was also represented by Joseph's being lord over the whole of Egypt, and over Pharaoh's house too, see 6145.
1 Samuel 12:19-20
19
All the people said to Samuel, "Pray for your servants to Yahweh your God, that we not die; for we have added to all our sins [this] evil, to ask us a king."
20
Samuel said to the people, "Don't be afraid. You have indeed done all this evil; yet don't turn aside from following Yahweh, but serve Yahweh with all your heart.
