1 "A onda dovedi k sebi između Izraelaca svoga brata Arona zajedno s njegovim sinovima: Nadabom, Abihuom, Eleazarom i Itamarom da mi služe kao svećenici.

2 Napravi svome bratu Aronu sveto ruho na čast i ukras.

3 Obrati se svim vještacima koje sam obdario mudrošću neka naprave haljine Aronu da bi se posvetio i vršio svećeničku službu u moju čast.

4 Neka ovu odjeću naprave: naprsnik, oplećak, ogrtač, košulju resama obrubljenu, mitru i pas; neka naprave svetu odjeću za tvoga brata Arona i njegove sinove da mi služe kao svećenici.

5 Stoga neka oni primaju zlato, ljubičasto, crveno i tamnocrveno predivo i prepredeni lan."

6 "Oplećak neka naprave od zlata, od ljubičastog, crvenog i tamnocrvenog prediva i od prepredenog lana - vješto izrađen.

7 Neka na njemu budu dvije poramenice, pričvršćene za njegove krajeve.

8 Tkanica što bude na njemu neka je napravljena kao i on: od zlata, od ljubičastog, crvenog i tamnocrvenog prediva i od prepredenog lana, a neka s njim sačinjava jedan komad.

9 Zatim uzmi dva draga kamena oniksa i u njih ureži imena Izraelovih sinova:

10 šest njihovih imena na jednome dragom kamenu, a preostalih šest imena na drugome dragom kamenu, prema njihovu rođenju.

11 Kao što rezbar dragulja urezuje pečate na prstene, tako ti ureži imena Izraelovih sinova. Oko njih navezi zlatan obrub,

12 pa pričvrsti oba draga kamena za poramenice oplećka da budu spomen-dragulji na Izraelove sinove. Tako neka Aron nosi njihova imena o svoja dva ramena pred Jahvom da ih se sjeća.

13 Načini zlatne okvire

14 i dva lančića od čistoga zlata. Načini ih kao zasukane uzice i onda zasukane lančiće pričvrsti za okvire."

15 "Naprsnik za presuđivanje izradi umjetnički; izvedi to kao i posao na oplećku: od zlata, od ljubičastog, crvenog i tamnocrvenog prediva i od prepredenog lana.

16 Neka bude četvorinast i dvostruk; jedan pedalj neka mu je duljina, a pedalj širina.

17 Na njemu poredaj četiri reda dragulja. U prvome redu neka bude: rubin, topaz i alem;

18 u drugome redu: smaragd, safir i ametist;

19 u trećem redu: hijacint, ahat i ledac;

20 a u četvrtom redu: krizolit, oniks i jaspis. Neka budu ukovani u zlatne okvire.

21 Tih dragulja neka bude dvanaest, koliko i imena Izraelovih sinova. Neka budu urezani kao i pečati na prstenju, svaki s imenom jednoga od dvanaest plemena.

22 Napravi za naprsnik lančiće od čistoga zlata, zasukane kao uzice.

23 Zatim napravi za naprsnik dva kolutića od zlata i pričvrsti ih na dva gornja ugla naprsnika.

24 Onda priveži dvije zlatne uzice za ta dva kolutića koja budu pričvršćena za uglove naprsnika.

25 Druga dva kraja uzica priveži za dva okvira. Sad ih tako pričvrsti za poramenice oplećka sprijeda.

26 Napravi dva kolutića od zlata pa ih pričvrsti za dva donja ugla naprsnika, uz rub iznutra koji je okrenut prema oplećku.

27 Napravi još dva kolutića od zlata i pričvrsti ih za donji, prednji kraj poramenice oplećka, uz njegov šav povrh tkanice oplećka.

28 Neka se naprsnik sveže za svoje kolutiće s kolutićima oplećka vrpcom od modroga grimiza, tako da naprsnik stoji iznad tkanice i da se ne može odvajati od oplećka.

29 Neka tako Aron, kada god ulazi u Svetište, na svome srcu nosi imena sinova Izraelovih na naprsniku za presuđivanje da ih uvijek doziva u sjećanje pred Jahvom.

30 U naprsnik za presuđivanje neka se stave i 'Urim' i 'Tumim' da i oni budu na Aronovu srcu kad bude dolazio pred Jahvu. Tako neka Aron uvijek na svom srcu pred Jahvom nosi presudu sinova Izraelovih."

31 "Ogrtač za oplećak sav napravi od ljubičastog prediva.

32 Prorez za glavu na njemu neka bude na sredini. Rub naokolo proreza neka bude opšiven kao ovratnik na oklopu, tako da se ogrtač ne podere.

33 Na njegovu rubu sve naokolo načini šipke od ljubičastog, crvenog i tamnocrvenog prediva, a između njih zvonca od zlata naokolo;

34 zlatno zvonce pa šipak, zlatno zvonce pa šipak naokolo ogrtača uz rub.

35 Neka budu na Aronu dok vrši službu, da se čuje kad ulazi u Svetište pred Jahvu i kad izlazi; tako neće umrijeti."

36 "Napravi potom jednu ploču od čistoga zlata i na njoj ureži, kao što se urezuje na pečatnom prstenu: 'Jahvi posvećen'.

37 Za mitru je priveži modrom vrpcom da stoji s pročelja mitre.

38 Neka stoji na Aronovu čelu. Tako neka Aron na se preuzme nedostatke koji bi mogli okaljati sve svete prinose što ih Izraelci posvećuju. Neka uvijek stoji na njegovu čelu da za njih stječe blagonaklonost Jahvinu.

39 Košulju s resama napravi od lana, od lana napravi i mitru, a pas vezom izvezi.

40 I za Aronove sinove napravi haljine, pasove i turbane, njima na čast i ukras.

41 U njih odjeni svoga brata Arona i njegove sinove; onda ih pomaži, ispuni im ruke vlašću i posveti ih da mi služe kao svećenici.

42 Napravi za njih gaćice od lana da im pokriju golo tijelo. Neka sežu od bedara do stegna.

43 Neka ih nosi Aron i njegovi sinovi kad ulaze u Šator sastanka ili kad se primiču žrtveniku za službu u Svetištu da ne navuku na se krivnju i umru. To neka bude vječna naredba za nj i za njegovo potomstvo poslije njega."

778. "And wine, oil, flour, wheat." This symbolically means that these Roman Catholics no longer have any worship that springs from celestial truths and goods, because they have nothing inwardly in their worship that corresponds to the aforesaid things.

This statement is similar to ones explained just above and in previous numbers, the only difference being that the valuables here symbolize celestial goods and truths.

Just what goods and truths are called celestial, and what spiritual, may be seen in no. 773 above. It may also be seen that the Roman Catholics meant here possess none of these, nor are there any in their worship. For, as we said above, the goods and truths of doctrine are present in worship as the soul is in the body. Consequently worship without these is a lifeless worship. Of such a character is worship that is reverent in outward appearances, but which has in it no internal reverence.

That wine symbolizes truth springing from the goodness of love may be seen in no. 316 above. That oil symbolizes the goodness of love will be seen in the next number. Flour symbolizes celestial truth, and wheat symbolizes celestial good.

[2] Wine, oil, flour and wheat symbolize the truths and goods in worship, because they were the ingredients in drink offerings and grain offerings, which were offered on the altar along with other sacrifices, and sacrifices and other offerings offered on the altar symbolize worship, since it was in these that the Israelites' worship chiefly consisted.

That drink offerings, which were ones of wine, were offered on the altar along with other sacrifices, can be seen in Exodus 29:40; Leviticus 23:12-13, 18-19; Numbers 15:2-15; 28:11-15, 18-31; 29:1-7ff.; and also in Isaiah 57:6; 65:11; Jeremiah 7:18; 44:17-19; Ezekiel 20:28; Joel 1:9; Psalms 16:4; Deuteronomy 32:38.

That oil was also offered on the altar along with sacrifices, can be seen in Exodus 29:40.

That grain offerings, which consisted of wheat flour, were offered on the altar along with other sacrifices, can be seen in Exodus 29:40).

It can be seen from this that these four articles - wine, oil, flour and wheat - were sacred and celestial elements in their worship.

1 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

2 "Command the children of Israel, and tell them, 'My offering, my food for my offerings made by fire, of a pleasant aroma to me, you shall observe to offer to me in their due season.'

3 You shall tell them, 'This is the offering made by fire which you shall offer to Yahweh: male lambs a year old without blemish, two day by day, for a continual burnt offering.

4 You shall offer the one lamb in the morning, and you shall offer the other lamb at evening;

5 with the tenth part of an ephah of fine flour for a meal offering, mixed with the fourth part of a hin of beaten oil.

6 It is a continual burnt offering, which was ordained in Mount Sinai for a pleasant aroma, an offering made by fire to Yahweh.

7 Its drink offering shall be the fourth part of a hin for the one lamb. You shall pour out a drink offering of strong drink to Yahweh in the holy place.

8 The other lamb you shall offer at evening: as the meal offering of the morning, and as the drink offering of it, you shall offer it, an offering made by fire, of a pleasant aroma to Yahweh.

9 "'On the Sabbath day two male lambs a year old without blemish, and two tenth parts [of an ephah] of fine flour for a meal offering, mixed with oil, and the drink offering of it:

10 this is the burnt offering of every Sabbath, besides the continual burnt offering, and the drink offering of it.

11 "'In the beginnings of your months you shall offer a burnt offering to Yahweh: two young bulls, and one ram, seven male lambs a year old without blemish;

12 and three tenth parts [of an ephah] of fine flour for a meal offering, mixed with oil, for each bull; and two tenth parts of fine flour for a meal offering, mixed with oil, for the one ram;

13 and a tenth part of fine flour mixed with oil for a meal offering to every lamb; for a burnt offering of a pleasant aroma, an offering made by fire to Yahweh.

14 Their drink offerings shall be half a hin of wine for a bull, and the third part of a hin for the ram, and the fourth part of a hin for a lamb: this is the burnt offering of every month throughout the months of the year.

15 One male goat for a sin offering to Yahweh; it shall be offered besides the continual burnt offering, and the drink offering of it.

16 "'In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, is Yahweh's Passover.

17 On the fifteenth day of this month shall be a feast: seven days shall unleavened bread be eaten.

18 In the first day shall be a holy convocation: you shall do no servile work;

19 but you shall offer an offering made by fire, a burnt offering to Yahweh: two young bulls, and one ram, and seven male lambs a year old; they shall be to you without blemish;

20 and their meal offering, fine flour mixed with oil: you shall offer three tenth parts for a bull, and two tenth parts for the ram.

21 You shall offer a tenth part for every lamb of the seven lambs;

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

23 You shall offer these besides the burnt offering of the morning, which is for a continual burnt offering.

24 In this way you shall offer daily, for seven days, the food of the offering made by fire, of a pleasant aroma to Yahweh: it shall be offered besides the continual burnt offering, and the drink offering of it.

25 On the seventh day you shall have a holy convocation: you shall do no servile work.

26 "'Also in the day of the first fruits, when you offer a new meal offering to Yahweh in your [feast of] weeks, you shall have a holy convocation; you shall do no servile work;

27 but you shall offer a burnt offering for a pleasant aroma to Yahweh: two young bulls, one ram, seven male lambs a year old;

28 and their meal offering, fine flour mixed with oil, three tenth parts for each bull, two tenth parts for the one ram,

29 a tenth part for every lamb of the seven lambs;

30 one male goat, to make atonement for you.

31 Besides the continual burnt offering, and the meal offering of it, you shall offer them (they shall be to you without blemish), and their drink offerings.
