36
E ogni giorno offrirai un giovenco, come sacrifizio per il peccato, per fare l’espiazione; purificherai l’altare mediante questa tua espiazione, e l’ungerai per consacrarlo.
Esodo 29:36
Arcana Coelestia #10010
10010. 'And you shall take the anointing oil' means a representative sign of Divine Good in the Lord 1 . This is clear from the meaning of 'oil' as the good of love, and in the highest sense as the Divine Good of Divine Love in the Lord; and from the meaning of 'anointing' as consecrating to represent that good, dealt with above in 9474, 9954.
Note a piè di pagina:
1. In his rough draft Swedenborg first wrote words meaning a representative sign of the consecration to Divine Good; this was then altered to a representative sign of the consecration of Divine Good. cp 9999; also 10019 and the explanation of that verse in 9999.
