1 你要用皂莢做一座燒香的

2 這壇要四方的,長一肘,寬一肘,二肘;壇的四角要與壇接連一塊。

3 要用精把壇的上面與壇的四圍,並壇的四角,包裹;又要在壇的四圍鑲上牙邊。

4 要做兩個安在牙子邊以,在壇的兩旁,兩根橫撐上,作為穿杠的用處,以便抬壇。

5 要用皂莢做杠,用包裹。

6 要把壇放在法櫃前的幔子外,對著法櫃上的施恩座,就是我要與你相會的地方。

7 亞倫在壇上要燒馨料做的;每早晨他收拾的時候,要燒這

8 黃昏的時候,他要在耶和華面前燒這香,作為世世代常燒的香。

9 在這壇上不可奉上異樣的香,不可獻燔祭、素祭,也不可澆上奠祭。

10 亞倫一年一次要在壇的角上行贖罪之禮。他一年一次要用贖罪祭牲的血在壇上行贖罪之禮,作為世世代的定例。這壇在耶和華面前為至

11 耶和華曉諭摩西

12 你要按以色列人被數的,計算總數,你數的時候,他們各要為自己的生命把贖價奉耶和華,免得數的時候在他們中間有災殃。

13 凡過去歸那些被數之人的,每人要按所的平,拿銀子半舍客勒;這半舍客勒是奉耶和華的禮物(一舍客勒二十季拉)。

14 凡過去歸那些被數的人,從二十歲以外的,要將這禮物奉耶和華

15 他們為贖生命將禮物奉耶和華,富足的不可多出,貧窮的也不可少出,各人要出半舍客勒

16 你要從以色列人收這贖罪,作為會幕的使用,可以在耶和華面前為以色列人紀念,贖生命。

17 耶和華曉諭摩西

18 你要用銅做濯盆和盆座,以便濯。要將盆放在會幕的中間,在盆裡盛

19 亞倫和他的兒子要在這盆裡

20 他們進會幕,或是就前供職給耶和華獻火祭的時候,必用濯,免得亡。

21 他們就免得亡。這要作亞倫和他後裔世世代永遠的定例。

22 耶和華曉諭摩西

23 你要取上品的香料,就是流質的沒藥五舍客勒,肉桂一半,就是二五十舍客勒,菖蒲二五十舍客勒,

24 桂皮五舍客勒,都按著所的平,又取橄欖

25 按做香之法調和做成

26 要用這油抹會幕和法櫃,

27 桌子桌子的一切器具,臺和臺的器具,並香

28 祭壇,和的一切器具,洗濯盆和盆座。

29 要使這些物成為,好成為至;凡挨著的都成為

30 亞倫和他的兒子,使他們成為,可以給我供祭司的職分。

31 你要對以色列人:這,我要世世代以為

32 不可倒在別人的身上,也不可按這調和之法做與此相似的。這膏油是的,你們也要以為

33 凡調和與此相似的,或將這膏膏在別身上的,這要從民中剪除。

34 耶和華吩咐摩西:你要取馨香料,就是拿他弗、施喜列、喜利比拿;這馨香料和淨乳各樣要一般大的分量。

35 你要用這些加上鹽,按做香之法做成清淨聖潔的香。

36 這香要取點搗得極細,放在會幕內、法櫃前,我要在那裡與你相會。你們要以這香為至

37 你們不可按這調和之法為自己做香;要以這香為,歸耶和華

38 凡做和這一樣,為要香味的,這要從民中剪除。

10128. 'And sanctify it' means in order to receive the Lord. This is clear from the meaning of 'being sanctified' as receiving the Lord. The reason why 'being sanctified' means receiving the Lord is that the Lord alone is holy, and consequently whatever emanates from the Lord is holy. To the extent therefore that a person receives good, and with the good truth from the Lord, which are holy, he receives the Lord. Whether you say receiving goodness and truth from the Lord or receiving the Lord it amounts to the same thing; for goodness and truth are the Lord's since they come from Him, and so they are the Lord in heaven and in the Church. On these matters - that the Lord alone is holy and that everything holy emanates from Him, and consequently that to receive Him is to be sanctified - see 9229, 9479, 9680, 9818, 9820, 9956, 9988, 10069. The meaning of 'being sanctified' as receiving the Lord is also evident from the consideration that the words used are 'you shall make propitiation and sanctify'; for 'making propitiation (or expiation)' means purification from evils and consequent falsities, and at the same time the implantation of truth and good from the Lord, 10127. The implantation of truth and good from the Lord is the reception of Him, and so it is sanctification. The like occurs above in the present chapter,

They shall eat those things containing what has been expiated, to fill their hand, to sanctify them. Verse 33.

'What has been expiated' there means that which has been purified from evils and consequent falsities, 9506, 10109; 'filling the hand' means implanting goodness and truth and joining them together, 10076, so that 'being sanctified' means receiving them from the Lord, 10111.

9992. 'And unleavened bread' means purification of what is celestial in the inmost part of a person. This is clear from the meaning of 'bread' as that which is celestial, dealt with in 2165, 2177, 3478, 9545; and from the meaning of what is 'unleavened' as what has been purified, dealt with below. The inmost part of a person is meant because what is celestial consists in the good of love, and the good of love is inmost. There are three degrees in a person that follow one another in order; and these three are called celestial, spiritual, and natural. The celestial degree is the good of love to the Lord, the spiritual is the good of charity towards the neighbour, and the natural descending from this is the good of faith, which, since it descends from the spiritual, is called spiritual-natural. The situation with a person resembles that in the heavens. The inmost heaven, also called the third heaven, is where the celestial degree is situated; the second or middle heaven is where the spiritual degree does so; and the first or lowest heaven is where the natural descending from the spiritual, or the spiritual-natural degree, does so. The reason why the situation with a person resembles that in the heavens is that a person in whom good is present is heaven in the smallest form it takes, see the places referred to in 9279. The celestial heaven or kingdom and the division of this too into three will be spoken of in what follows next where cakes and wafers made from fine wheat flour are the subject.

[2] 'Unleavened' means what has been purified because 'yeast' means falsity arising from evil, 2342, 7906, so that 'unleavened' or made without yeast means pure or free from that falsity. 'Yeast' means falsity arising from evil because such falsity defiles good, and truth as well, and also because it gives rise to conflict; for when that falsity gets near good, agitation occurs, and when it gets near truth, a collision takes place. All this explains why a minchah consisting of unleavened bread was included in burnt offerings and sacrifices. Therefore it was decreed that every minchah which they brought to Jehovah should be made without yeast, Leviticus 2:11; that they should not sacrifice the blood of a sacrifice with anything made with yeast, Exodus 23:18; and that during the feast of Passover they should not eat anything made with yeast, and that anyone eating it should be cut off from Israel, Exodus 12:15, 18-20. The reason why anyone who ate anything made with yeast during the feast of Passover should be cut off from Israel was that the feast of Passover was a sign of deliverance from damnation, and in particular of deliverance from falsities arising from evil, accomplished with those who allow themselves to be regenerated by the Lord, see 7093, 9286-9292. This also explains why it was called the feast of unleavened bread.
