1 "Zgriješi li tko tako što čuje riječi proklinjanja a odbije da svjedoči iako je mogao biti svjedokom jer je ili sam vidio ili doznao pa tako nosi krivnju na sebi;

2 ili ako tko dirne kakav nečist predmet, strv nečiste zvijeri, strv nečista živinčeta ili strv nečista puzavca - i u neznanju postane nečist i odgovoran;

3 ili kad se tko dotakne nečistoće čovječje, bilo to što mu drago od čega se nečistim postaje i toga ne bude svjestan, kad dozna, biva odgovoran;

4 nadalje, kad tko nepromišljeno izusti zakletvu na dobro ili zlo - na što se već čovjek nepromišljeno zaklinje - i toga ne bude svjestan, onda, kad dozna, biva odgovoran;

5 ako, dakle, tko postane odgovoran u bilo čemu od toga, neka prizna počinjeni grijeh.

6 I neka prinese Jahvi kao žrtvu naknadnicu za počinjeni grijeh jednu ženku od sitne stoke, janje ili kozle, kao žrtvu okajnicu. Neka svećenik izvrši nad njim obred pomirenja koji će ga osloboditi od njegova grijeha."

7 "Ako mu sredstva ne dopuštaju da pribavi glavu sitne stoke, neka Jahvi, kao naknadnicu za počinjeni grijeh, prinese dvije grlice ili dva golubića; jedno kao žrtvu okajnicu, a drugo kao žrtvu paljenicu.

8 Neka ih donese svećeniku, a on neka najprije prinese ono što je određeno kao žrtva okajnica. Stisnuvši ga za vrat, neka mu slomi šiju, ali neka glave ne otkida.

9 Neka krvlju žrtve poškropi žrtvenik sa strane, a ostatak krvi neka se iscijedi podno žrtvenika. To je žrtva okajnica.

10 Onda neka drugo prinese kao žrtvu paljenicu prema propisu. Neka tako svećenik nad tim čovjekom izvrši obred pomirenja za grijeh koji je počinio, i bit će mu oprošteno.

11 Ako mu sredstva ne dopuštaju da pribavi dvije grlice ili dva golubića, neka Jahvi, u zadovoljštinu za počinjeni grijeh, prinese jednu desetinu efe njaboljeg brašna. Ulja u nj neka ne ulijeva niti na nj tamjana stavlja jer je žrtva okajnica.

12 Kada to donese svećeniku, neka svećenik zagrabi punu pregršt kao spomen-žrtvu i na žrtveniku sažeže u čast Jahvi povrh paljenih žrtava. To je žrtva okajnica.

13 Neka tako svećenik izvrši nad tim čovjekom obred pomirenja za grijeh koji je počinio u bilo kojem od tih slučajeva, pa će mu biti oprošteno. Ono ostalo neka pripadne svećeniku kao i od žrtve prinosnice."

14 Još reče Jahve Mojsiju:

15 "Ako tko počini pronevjerenje ogriješivši se nehotično o svete stvari Jahvine, neka za naknadu, kao žrtvu naknadnicu, prinese Jahvi, iz svoga stada, ovna bez mane, vrijedna - po tvojoj procjeni - najmanje dva šekela srebra - prema cijeni hramskog šekela.

16 Neka nadoknadi koliko se ogriješio o svete stvari i tome doda još petinu i neka dadne svećeniku. Neka svećenik nad njim izvrši obred pomirenja ovnom žrtve naknadnice, i bit će mu oprošteno.

17 Ako tko i ne znajući pogriješi i učini štogod što je Jahve zabranio, kriv je, pa neka snosi posljedice svoje krivnje.

18 Neka svećeniku dovede za naknadnicu iz svoga stada ovna bez mane, prema tvojoj procjeni. Neka svećenik nad tim čovjekom izvrši obred pomirenja za pogrešku što je počinio u neznanju, i bit će mu oprošteno.

19 To je žrtva naknadnica; on je doista bio odgovoran Jahvi."

20 Jahve još reče Mojsiju:

21 "Kad se tko ogriješi i počini pronevjeru prema Jahvi prevarivši svoga bližnjega u pologu ili pohrani, a tako i krađom ili iskorištavanjem svoga bližnjega;

22 ili, nađe li što je bilo izgubljeno pa slaže i krivo se zakune u bilo kojem grijehu što ga čovjek može učiniti;

23 ako tko tako pogriješi i kriv postane, onda ono što je krađom oduzeo ili što je iskorištavanjem namakao; ili polog što mu je bio povjeren; ili izgubljenu stvar što ju je našao;

24 ili ono za što se bio krivo zakleo - neka u cijelosti vrati i, dodavši tome petinu, neka dadne onome kome pripada istoga dana kad spozna svoju krivnju.

25 Neka potom svećeniku za naknadu, kao žrtvu naknadnicu Jahvi, dovede iz svog stada jednoga ovna bez mane, prema tvojoj procjeni,

26 a svećenik neka nad tim čovjekom izvrši obred pomirenja pred Jahvom, i bit će mu oprošteno, ma kakvo bilo nedjelo kojega je krivac."

4 Neka se obuče u posvećenu košulju od lana; na svoje tijelo neka navuče gaće od lana; neka se opaše lanenim pasom, a na glavu stavi mitru od lana. To je posvećeno ruho koje ima obući pošto se okupa u vodi.

Arcana Coelestia #2715

2715. Two arcana exist here, the first being that, compared with the good of the celestial man, that of the spiritual man is obscure, the second that this obscurity is brightened by light from the Lord's Divine Human. As regards the first of these - that the good residing with the spiritual man is obscure compared with the celestial man's - this may be seen from what has been stated above in 2708 about the state of the spiritual man in comparison with that of the celestial man. From a comparison of the two states the fact of that obscurity is quite evident. With those who are celestial good itself exists implanted in the will part of their mind, and from there light enters the understanding part. But with those who are spiritual the whole of the will part is corrupted, so that they have no good at all from there, and therefore the Lord implants good in the understanding part of their mind, see 863, 875, 895, 927, 928, 1023, 1043, 1044, 2124, 2256. The will part is, in the main, the part of man's mind that possesses life, whereas the understanding part receives life from the will. Since therefore the will part in the case of the spiritual man is so corrupted as to be nothing but evil, and yet evil is flowing in from there unceasingly and constantly into the understanding part, that is, into his thought, it is clear that the good there is obscure compared with the celestial man's good.

[2] As a consequence those who are spiritual do not have love to the Lord, as those who are celestial do; nor therefore does that humility exist with them which is essential in all worship and by means of which good can flow in from the Lord; for a heart that is haughty is not at all receptive, only one that is humble. Nor do those who are spiritual have love towards the neighbour, as those who are celestial do, because self-love and love of the world are constantly flowing in from the will part of their mind, bringing obscurity into the good that goes with that love towards the neighbour. This may also become clear to one who reflects from the fact that when he helps another he does so for worldly reasons; thus though he may not consciously have it in mind he is nevertheless thinking about what he will get in return either from those he helps or in the next life from the Lord, which being so his good is still defiled with merit-seeking. It may also become clear to him from the fact that when he has done anything good and is able to speak about it to others and so set himself up above others, he is in his element. But those who are celestial love the neighbour more than they love themselves, and do not ever think about repayment or in any way set themselves up above others.

[3] The good residing with those who are spiritual is in addition made obscure by persuasive beliefs that are the product of various assumptions, which likewise have their origin in self-love and love of the world. For the nature of their persuasive beliefs even in matters of faith, see 2682, 2689 (end). This too is a product of the influx of evil from the will part of their mind.

[4] It may in addition become clear that the good residing with the spiritual man is obscure compared with the celestial man's, from the fact that he does not know what truth is, as those who are celestial do, from any perception. Instead he knows what truth is from what he has learned from parents and teachers, and also from the doctrine into which he was born. And when he adds to this anything from himself and from his own thinking, it is for the most part the senses and the illusions of the senses, also the rational and the appearances present within the rational, that predominate, and these make it barely possible for him to acknowledge any pure truth like that acknowledged by those who are celestial. But in spite of this, within things that are seemingly true the Lord implants good, even though these truths are mere illusions or else appearances of truth. But this good is made obscure by such truths, for it derives its specific nature from the truths to which it is joined. It is like the light of the sun falling upon objects. The nature of the objects receiving the light causes the light to be seen within those objects in the form of colours, which are beautiful if the nature of the recipient form and the manner of its receiving are fitting and correspondent, hideous if the nature of the recipient form and the manner of its receiving are not fitting and so not correspondent. In the same way good itself acquires a specific nature from the truth [to which it is joined].

[5] The same arcanum is also evident from the fact that the spiritual man does not know what evil is. He scarcely believes that any other evils exist than actions contrary to the Ten Commandments. Of evils present in affection and thought, which are countless, he has no knowledge nor does he reflect on them or call them evils. All delights whatever that go with evil desires and pleasures he does not regard as other than good; and the actual delights that are part of self-love he both pursues, approves of, and excuses, without knowing that such things have an effect on his spirit and that he becomes altogether such in the next life.

[6] From this it is in a similar way clear that although the whole of the Word deals with scarcely any other matter than the good which goes with love to the Lord and love towards the neighbour, the spiritual man does not know that that good is the sum and substance of faith, nor even what the essential nature of love and charity is. It is also clear that though something which is a matter of faith may be known to him - faith being considered by him to be essential in itself - he nevertheless discusses whether it is true, unless he has been confirmed by much experience of life. Those who are celestial do not discuss the same because they know and have a perception that it is true hence the Lord's statement in Matthew,

Let your words be, Yes, yes; No, no; anything beyond this is from evil. 1 Matthew 5:37.

For those who are celestial are immersed in the truth itself about which those who are spiritual dispute. Consequently because those who are celestial are immersed in the truth itself, they are able to see from it numberless facets of that truth, and so from light to see so to speak heaven in its entirety. But those who are spiritual, because they dispute whether it is true, cannot - so long as they do so - arrive at the remotest boundary of the light existing with those who are celestial, let alone behold anything from their light.
