Numbers 28

Studie

   

1 And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

2 `Command the sons of Israel, and thou hast said unto them, My offering, My bread for My fire-offerings, My sweet fragrance, ye take heed to bring near to Me in its appointed season.

3 `And thou hast said to them, This [is] the fire-offering which ye bring near to Jehovah: two lambs, sons of a year, perfect ones, daily, a continual burnt-offering;

4 the one lamb thou preparest in the morning, and the second lamb thou preparest between the evenings;

5 and a tenth of the ephah of flour for a present, mixed with beaten oil, a fourth of the hin;

6 a continual burnt-offering, which was made in mount Sinai, for sweet fragrance, a fire-offering to Jehovah;

7 and its libation, a fourth of the hin for the one lamb; in the sanctuary cause thou a libation of strong drink to be poured out to Jehovah.

8 `And the second lamb thou dost prepare between the evenings; as the present of the morning, and as its libation thou preparest -- a fire-offering, a sweet fragrance to Jehovah.

9 `And on the sabbath-day, two lambs, sons of a year, perfect ones, and two-tenth deals of flour, a present, mixed with oil, and its libation;

10 the burnt-offering of the sabbath in its sabbath, besides the continual burnt-offering and its libation.

11 `And in the beginnings of your months ye bring near a burnt-offering to Jehovah: two bullocks, sons of the herd, and one ram, seven lambs, sons of a year, perfect ones;

12 and three-tenth deals of flour, a present, mixed with oil, for the one bullock, and two-tenth deals of flour, a present, mixed with oil, for the one ram;

13 and a several tenth deal of flour, a present, mixed with oil, for the one lamb; a burnt-offering, a sweet fragrance, a fire-offering to Jehovah;

14 and their libations are a half of the hin to a bullock, and a third of the hin to a ram, and a fourth of the hin to a lamb, of wine; this [is] the burnt-offering of every month for the months of the year;

15 and one kid of the goats for a sin-offering to Jehovah; besides the continual burnt-offering it is prepared, and its libation.

16 `And in the first month, in the fourteenth day of the month, [is] the passover to Jehovah;

17 and in the fifteenth day of this month [is] a festival, seven days unleavened food is eaten;

18 in the first day [is] an holy convocation, ye do no servile work,

19 and ye have brought near a fire-offering, a burnt-offering to Jehovah: two bullocks, sons of the herd, and one ram, and seven lambs, sons of a year, perfect ones they are for you;

20 and their present, flour mixed with oil, three-tenth deals for a bullock, and two-tenth deals for a ram ye do prepare;

21 a several tenth deal thou preparest for the one lamb, for the seven lambs,

22 and one goat, a sin-offering, to make atonement for you.

23 `Apart from the burnt-offering of the morning, which [is] for the continual burnt-offering, ye prepare these;

24 according to these ye prepare daily, seven days, bread of a fire-offering, a sweet fragrance, to Jehovah; besides the continual burnt-offering it is prepared, and its libation;

25 and on the seventh day a holy convocation ye have, ye do no servile work.

26 `And in the day of the first-fruits, in your bringing near a new present to Jehovah, in your weeks, a holy convocation ye have; ye do no servile work;

27 and ye have brought near a burnt-offering for sweet fragrance to Jehovah: two bullocks, sons of the herd, one ram, seven lambs, sons of a year,

28 and their present, flour mixed with oil, three-tenth deals to the one bullock, two-tenth deals to the one ram,

29 a several tenth deal to the one lamb, for the seven lambs;

30 one kid of the goats to make atonement for you;

31 apart from the continual burnt-offering and its present ye prepare [them] (perfect ones they are for you) and their libations.

6234. 'And now your two sons born to you in the land of Egypt' means goodness and truth within the natural that come from the internal. This is clear from the representation of Manasseh and Ephraim, to whom 'two sons' refers here, as the Church's will and the Church's understanding within the natural, which are born from the internal, dealt with above in 6222 (and since good belongs to the will and truth to the understanding, the Church's goodness and truth are meant by those same sons); from the meaning of 'born to you' - to Joseph - as that come from the internal; and from the meaning of 'the land of Egypt' as the natural mind where the Church's factual knowledge resides, dealt with in 5176, 5178, 5280, 5288, 5301, and as the natural, 6147.
