Levitico 3

Étudier

   

1 At kung ang kanilang alay ay haing mga handog tungkol sa kapayapaan; kung ang ihahandog niya ay sa bakahan maging lalake o babae, ay ihahandog niya na walang kapintasan sa harap ng Panginoon.

2 At kaniyang ipapatong ang kamay niya sa ulo ng kaniyang alay, at papatayin sa pintuan ng tabernakulo ng kapisanan: at iwiwisik ng mga anak ni Aaron, na mga saserdote, ang dugo sa ibabaw ng dambana, sa palibot.

3 At kaniyang ihahandog hinggil sa haing mga handog tungkol sa kapayapaan, na pinakahandog sa Panginoon na pinaraan sa apoy; ang tabang nakatatakip ng lamang loob at lahat ng tabang nasa ibabaw ng lamang loob,

4 At ang dalawang bato at ang tabang nasa ibabaw ng mga yaon, ang nasa siping ng mga balakang, at ang lamad na nasa ibabaw ng atay ay kaniyang aalisin na kalakip ng mga bato.

5 At susunugin ng mga anak ni Aaron sa dambana, sa ibabaw ng handog na susunugin na nasa ibabaw ng kahoy na nakapatong sa apoy; handog ngang pinaraan sa apoy, na pinakamasarap na amoy sa Panginoon.

6 At kung ang kaniyang alay sa Panginoon na pinakahaing mga handog tungkol sa kapayapaan ay kinuha sa kawan; maging lalake o babae, ay ihahandog niya na walang kapintasan.

7 Kung isang kordero ang kaniyang ihahandog na pinakaalay niya, ay ihahandog nga niya sa harap ng Panginoon:

8 At kaniyang ipapatong ang kamay niya sa ulo ng kaniyang alay, at papatayin sa harap ng tabernakulo ng kapisanan: at iwiwisik ng mga anak ni Aaron ang dugo niyaon sa ibabaw ng dambana sa palibot.

9 At kaniyang ihahandog hinggil sa hain na mga handog tungkol sa kapayapaan ay isang handog sa Panginoon na pinaraan sa apoy; ang taba niyaon, ang buong matabang buntot, ay aalisin niya sa siping ng gulugod; at ang tabang nakatatakip ng lamang loob, at ang lahat ng tabang nasa ibabaw ng lamang loob.

10 At ang dalawang bato, at ang tabang nasa ibabaw niyaon, na malapit sa mga balakang, at ang lamad na nasa ibabaw ng atay, ay aalisin niya na kalakip ng mga bato.

11 At susunugin ng saserdote sa ibabaw ng dambana: pagkaing handog nga sa Panginoon na pinaraan sa apoy.

12 At kung kambing ang kaniyang alay ay ihahandog nga niya sa harap ng Panginoon:

13 At ipapatong niya ang kaniyang kamay sa ulo niyaon, at papatayin yaon sa harap ng tabernakulo ng kapisanan: at iwiwisik ng mga anak ni Aaron ang dugo sa ibabaw ng dambana sa palibot.

14 At ang ihahandog niya roon na kaniyang alay, na pinakahandog sa Panginoon, na pinaraan sa apoy; ang tabang nakatatakip ng lamang loob, lahat ng tabang nasa ibabaw ng lamang loob,

15 At ang dalawang bato, at ang tabang nasa ibabaw, na malapit sa mga balakang, at ang lamad na nasa ibabaw ng atay, ay aalisin niya na kalakip ng mga bato.

16 At mga susunugin ng saserdote sa ibabaw ng dambana; pagkaing handog nga na pinaraan sa apoy na pinakamasarap na amoy: lahat ng taba ay sa Panginoon.

17 Magiging palatuntunang palagi sa buong panahon ng inyong lahi, sa lahat ng inyong tahanan na hindi kayo kakain ng taba ni dugo man.

Apocalypse Explained #330

Étudier ce passage

  
/ 1232  
  

330. Out of every tribe and tongue. That this signifies from all those who are in truths as to doctrine and as to life, is clear from the signification of a tribe, as denoting all truths and goods in the aggregate (concerning which see above, n. 39); for those things are signified by the twelve tribes, and hence by every tribe is signified something of truth and good, therefore by out of every tribe is signified from all those who are in any kind of truth and good; and from the signification of tongue as denoting the doctrine of life and faith. That tribes signify all truths and goods in the aggregate, will be shown more fully in its proper article below. Similarly, that tongue signifies the doctrine of life and faith, thus religion. (Those [passages] only shall be adduced here that are shown in the Arcana Coelestia concerning the signification of the tribes, namely, the twelve tribes of Israel represented, and thence signified, all truths and goods in the aggregate, n. 3858, 3926, 4060, 6335; similarly the twelve apostles of the Lord the like, n. 2129, 3354, 3488, 6397. There were twelve, because twelve signifies all, n. 577, 2089, 2129, 2130, 3272, 3858, 3913. Because the twelve tribes represented, and thence signified, all truths and goods in the aggregate, therefore they represented heaven and the church, n. 6337, 6637, 7836, 7891, 7996. The twelve tribes signify various things according to the order in which they are named, and thus also all things of heaven and the church with variety, n. 3862, 3926, 3939, 4603 et seq., 6337, 6640, 10335; therefore, replies could be given and were given by the Urim and Thummim, on which the names of the twelve tribes of Israel were engraven in precious stones, n. 3858, 6335, 6640, 9863, 9865, 9873, 9874, 9905.)

Arcana Coelestia #10335

Étudier ce passage

  
/ 10837  
  

10335. 'And I, behold, I have appointed with him Aholiab the son of Ahisamach, belonging to the tribe of Dan' means those in whom the good and truth of faith are present, among whom the Church is to be established. This is clear from the representation of 'Aholiab' as those in whom the good and truth of faith are present. The reason why these are represented by Aholiab is that he was from the tribe of Dan, and that tribe means those in whom the good and truth of faith are present, see 3923, 6396. And the reason why these two - Bezalel from the tribe of Judah, and Aholiab from the tribe of Dan - were chosen to carry out the work, by which Divine celestial and spiritual realities would be represented, was that by Bezalel all those in whom the good of love is present should be understood, and by Aholiab all those in whom the good and truth of faith are present. Thus those who are in the inmost parts of heaven and the Church should be understood by Bezalel, and those who are in the last and lowest parts of them by Aholiab. And when they who are inmost and those who are last and lowest are referred to by name, all who are within the whole of heaven and within the whole of the Church should be understood. For this matter, see above in 10329; and when reference is made to what is first and what is last all things should be understood, 10044.

[2] The tribe of Judah was also in reality the first of the tribes, and the tribe of Dan the last of them. The fact that the tribe of Judah was in reality the first of the tribes is clear from father Israel's blessing of his sons in Genesis 49, where Reuben, Simeon, and Levi, who were the firstborn, are cursed, and Judah is blessed. See regarding Reuben there, verses 3, 4; regarding Simeon and Levi, verses 5-7; and regarding Judah, verses 8-12. And the fact that Dan was the last of the tribes, see 1710, 3923, 6396. The inmost heaven furthermore is inhabited by those in whom the good of love to the Lord exists, and the lowest by those in whom the truth of faith springing from good is present. The expression 'in whom the truth of faith springing from good is present' is used because the truth of faith is not the truth of faith present in a person unless it springs from good; for truth is born from good. Therefore unless good resides within truth there is no soul and so no life within it. Those in whom the truths of faith springing from good are present inhabit the lowest parts of heaven, but not those in whom the truths of faith are devoid of good; the latter do not inhabit heaven. Since the truth of faith acts as a servant to the good of love, as what is last does to what is first, it says of Aholiab that Jehovah appointed him to be with Bezalel, that is, to be his assistant; and of Bezalel it says that Jehovah filled him with the spirit of God in wisdom, and in intelligence, and in knowledge, and in all [manner of] work, verse 3.
