1 Тогда Іегова говорилъ къ Моисею, и сказалъ:

2 скажи сынамъ Израилевымъ, чтобы они сдјлали Мнј приношенія, принимайте приношеніе Мнј отъ всякаго человјка, которому то придетъ на сердце.

3 Приношенія, которыя вы должны принимать отъ нихъ, суть сіи: золото, и серебро, и мјдь,

4 и пряжа яхонтоваго, и пурпуронаго и червленаго цвјта, и виссонъ, и козья шерсть,

5 и кожи бараньи красныя, и кожи синія, и дерева акаціи,

6 елей для свјтильника, ароматы для елея помазанія, и для благовоннаго куренія,

7 камень ониксъ и камни вставные для ефода и для наперсника.

8 И устройте Мнј святилище, и буду обитать посреди васъ.

9 Все, какъ Я покажу тебј, и образъ скиніи, и образъ всјхъ сосудовъ ея, такъ сдјлайте.

10 И сдјлаютъ ковчегъ изъ дерева акаціи; длина ему два локтя съ половиною, и ширина ему полтора локтя, и высота ему полтора локтя.

11 И покрой его чистымъ золотомъ, изнутри и снаружи покрой его; и сдјлай наверху вокругъ его золотой вјнецъ.

12 И вылей для него четыре кольца золотыхъ, и утверди на четырехъ углахъ его: два кольца на одной сторонј его, и два кольца на другой сторонј его.

13 И сдјлай изъ дерева акаціи шесты, и обложи ихъ золотомъ.

14 И вложи сіи шесты въ кольца, по сторонамъ ковчега, чтобы посредствомъ оныхъ носить ковчегъ.

15 Въ кольцахъ ковчега должны быть шесты и не отниматься отъ него,

16 И положи въ ковчегъ откровеніе, которое Я дамъ тебј.

17 Сдјлай также очистилище, покровъ изъ чистаго золота, длина его два локтя съ половиною, а ширина его полтора локтя.

18 Еще сдјлай изъ золота двухъ херувимовъ; чеканной работы сдјлай ихъ на обоихъ крыльяхъ покрова.

19 Сдјлай одного херувима съ одного края, а другаго херувима съ другаго края; выдавшихся изъ очистилища сдјлайте херувимовъ на обоихъ краяхъ его.

20 И херувимы пусть будутъ съ крыльями распростертыми вверхъ, и покрываютъ своими крыльями очистилище; и пусть будутъ лицами своими одинъ къ другому, къ очистилищу пусть будутъ лицами херувимы.

21 И положи покровъ очистилища на ковчегъ сверху: въ ковчегъ же положи откровеніе, которое Я дамъ тебј.

22 Тамъ Я буду тебј открываться и говорить съ тобою съ верху очистилища, посреди двухъ херувимовъ, которые надъ ковчегомъ откровенія, о всемъ, что ни буду заповјдывать чрезъ тебя сынамъ Израилевымъ.

23 Еще сдјлай столъ изъ дерева акаціи, длиною въ два локтя, шириною въ локоть, а вышиною въ полтора локтя.

24 И обложи его золотомъ чистымъ, и сдјлай вокругъ его золотой вјнецъ.

25 Сдјлай вокругъ его обложеніе въ ладонь, и для обложенія его сдјлай золотой вјнецъ вокругъ.

26 И сдјлай для него четыре кольца золотыхъ, и утверди кольца сіи на четырехъ углахъ у четырехъ ножекъ его.

27 Подлј обложенія должны быть кольца, чтобы влагать шесты, чтобы носить на нихъ столъ.

28 А шесты сіи сдјлай изъ дерева акаціи, и обложи ихъ золотомъ, и будутъ носить на нихъ сей столъ.

29 Сдјлай также для него блюда, и ѕиміамники, и чаши, и кружки, чтобы возливать ими, изъ золота чистаго сдјлай ихъ.

30 И полагай всегда на столъ хлјбы предложенія предъ лицемъ Моимъ.

31 Еще сдјлай свјтильникъ изъ золота чистаго, чеканный долженъ быть сей свјтильникъ, такъ чтобы изъ него выходили стебель его, и вјтви его, чашки его, яблоки его и цвјты его.

32 Шесть вјтвей должны выходить изъ боковъ его: три вјтви свјтильника изъ одного бока его и три вјтви свјтильника изъ другаго бока его.

33 Три чашки на подобіе миндальнаго орјха, съ яблокомъ и цвјтами, должны быть на одной вјтви, и Три чашки на подобіе миндальнаго орјха на другой вјтви, съ яблокомъ и цвјтами. Такъ на всјхъ шести вјтвяхъ, выходящихъ изъ свјтильника.

34 А на самомъ стеблј свјтильника должны быть четыре чашки на подобіе миндальнаго орјха съ яблоками и цвјтами.

35 У шести вјтвей, выходящихъ изъ стебля свјтильника, яблоко подъ первыми двумя вјтвями, и яблоко подъ третьими двумя вјтвями.

36 Яблоки и вјтви ихъ изъ него должны выходить: онъ весь долженъ быть чеканяый, цјльный, чистаго золота.

37 И сдјлай къ нему семь лампадъ, и поставь лампады его, чтобы свјтили на переднюю сторону его.

38 Также щипцы къ нему и лотки подъ нихъ сдјлай изъ чистаго золота.

39 Изъ таланта золота чистаго пусть сдјлаютъ его со всјми сими принадлежностями.

40 Смотри, и сдјлай по тому образцу ихъ, который показапъ тебј на горј.

9532. 'And you shall overlay it with [pure] gold' means a representative sign of that good out of mercy. This is clear from the meaning of 'overlaying with gold' as a representative sign of good; for 'gold' means the good of love, 113, 1551, 1552, 5658, 6914, 6917, and therefore that good was represented by the gold where it was applied as a gilding. The reason why it is out of mercy is that all the good of love arises out of mercy, which too is meant by the shittim wood that was overlaid with gold, 9528.

6914. 'And I will give this people favour in the eyes of the Egyptians means fear, on account of the plagues, which those steeped in falsities had of those belonging to the spiritual Church. This is clear from the meaning of 'giving favour' as fear on account of the plagues, dealt with below; from the representation of the children of Israel, to whom 'people' refers here, as those belonging to the spiritual Church, dealt with in 6637; and from the representation of 'the Egyptians' as those who are steeped in falsities, often dealt with already. The fact that 'giving favour in the eyes of the Egyptians' means fear on account of the plagues that is present in those steeped in falsities is clear when one understands the matters described in the internal sense; for the subject is those who are steeped in falsities, meant by 'the Egyptians' - with the truths and forms of good which are to be taken away from them and passed on to those who belong to the spiritual Church. And since the subject is those who are steeped in falsities, 'favour' does not mean favour, for people who are steeped in falsities and evils do not feel in any way at all disposed to show favour towards anyone. If they treat anyone well or do not treat him badly they do so through fear of 'plagues'; these are the reason for their show of favour. This favour is the kind meant here in the internal sense. The internal sense displays things as they really are, not as they are made to stand in the letter, and makes every detail relevant to the subject. The truth of this is also evident from what follows regarding the Egyptians, where it is evident that they did not let the children of Israel go out of any disposition to show them favour, only out of fear on account of further plagues, Exodus 11:1; 12:33.

[2] These two verses, when they say that the women of Israel were to ask the Egyptian women for silver, gold, and clothes, refer to 'the plundering' of the Egyptians. And because what is meant by this cannot at all be known except from a revelation describing things that take place in the next life - for the internal sense contains the kinds of things that take place among angels and spirits - the matter must therefore be discussed. Before the Lord's Coming the lower parts of heaven had been occupied by evil genii and spirits; but afterwards they were driven out from there and that region was given to those who belonged to the spiritual Church, see above in 6858. As long as the evil genii and spirits were there they were under constant watch by angels belonging to a higher heaven and were thereby restrained from committing evil deeds openly. At the present day too some who are more devious than others because they mislead people by their pretence of innocence and charity are under watch by celestial ones, and so long as they are under it they are held back from their unspeakable tricks. They are directly overhead; but the celestial angels under whose watch they are kept are even higher. This has allowed me to know what the situation was like of the evil genii and spirits who occupied the lower region of heaven before the Lord's Coming; during that time they were held back by angels belonging to a higher heaven from committing evil deeds openly.

[3] But as for the way in which they were held back from committing evil deeds openly, this too I have been allowed to know. They were kept in check by external restraints, which were fear of the loss of position and reputation, and fear that they would be deprived of places they hold in that region of heaven and would be thrust down into hell; and at that time good yet simple spirits were attached to them. It was like what happens with people in the world. Even though inwardly they may be devils those external restraints force them to keep up a pretence of honourableness and righteousness and to do good. And to ensure that they go on behaving in these ways spirits who are governed by simple good are attached to them. The situation was similar with the evil who were in the lower region of heaven before the Lord's Coming. At that time too they could be driven by selfish kinds of love to speak what was true and do what was good. They were not unlike wicked priests, indeed even very wicked ones, who inwardly are devils, but who can proclaim the teachings of their Church with such passion and seeming zeal that they move the hearts of their hearers to godliness. Yet all the while they are ruled by self-love and love of the world, for the thought of their own position and gain reigns in every part of them and is what fires them to proclaim those teachings in such a way. There are evil spirits present with them, ruled by the same kind of love and consequently thinking in the same kind of way, who lead them; but good yet simple spirits are attached to them. From all this one may recognize what the state of heaven was like before the Lord's Coming.

[4] But after the Lord's Coming the states of heaven and hell were completely altered; for then the evil genii and spirits who occupied the lower region of heaven were cast down and were replaced by those raised up there who belonged to the spiritual Church. At that time the evil who were cast down had the external restraints taken away from them, which, as stated above, were fear of the loss of position and gain and deprivation of places they hold in that region. They were thus left to their inner selves, which were entirely devilish and hellish, and so were banished to the hells. The removal of external restraints is effected in the next life by withdrawing the good spirits who have been attached to them; and when they have been withdrawn the evil can no more maintain any pretence of goodness, righteousness, or honourableness, but can only behave in accord with what they had been like inwardly in the world, that is, in accord with what they had really thought and desired, which they had concealed from others there, their only wish being to do what is evil. The good yet simple spirits who were withdrawn from those evil spirits were assigned or attached to those who belonged to the spiritual Church, to whom that region of heaven was given as a possession. This is why they were enriched with the truths and forms of good which the evil genii and spirits had had previously. Enrichment with truths and forms of good is effected in the next life by means of the attachment of spirits with whom truth and goodness are present; for communication is effected through them.

[5] These things are what are meant by the statement that the children of Israel would not go out of Egypt empty-handed, and that a woman should ask of her female neighbour, and of the female guest in her house, vessels of silver, vessels of gold, and clothes, and in so doing would plunder the Egyptians. Anyone can see that unless the kinds of things described above had been represented the Divine would never have commanded them to use that kind of guile against the Egyptians; for all behaviour like that is very far removed from the Divine. But since those people were completely representative they were allowed by the Divine, because such a thing would be done to the evil in the next life, to act in that kind of way. It should be recognized that very many things which were commanded by Jehovah or the Lord do not in the internal sense mean things that were commanded by Him but those that were permitted.
