1 At kaniyang sinabi kay Moises, Sumampa ka sa kinaroroonan ng Panginoon, ikaw, at si Aaron, si Nadab, at si Abiu, at pitong pu ng mga matanda sa Israel; at sumamba kayo mula sa malayo:

2 At si Moises lamang ang lalapit sa Panginoon; datapuwa't sila'y hindi lalapit; o ang bayan man ay sasampang kasama niya.

3 At lumapit si Moises at isinaysay sa bayan ang lahat ng mga salita ng Panginoon, at ang lahat ng mga palatuntunan. At ang buong bayan ay sumagot ng paminsan, at nagsabi, Lahat ng mga salita na sinalita ng Panginoon, ay aming gagawin.

4 At sinulat ni Moises ang lahat ng mga salita ng Panginoon, at bumangon ng maaga sa kinaumagahan, at nagtayo ng isang dambana sa paanan ng bundok, at ng labing dalawang batong pinakaalaala, ayon sa labing dalawang lipi ng Israel.

5 At kaniyang sinugo ang mga binata ng mga anak ni Israel, na nagsipaghandog ng mga handog na susunugin at nagsipaghain sa Panginoon ng handog na baka tungkol sa kapayapaan.

6 At kinuha ni Moises ang kalahati ng dugo, at inilagay sa mga tasa; at ang kalahati ng dugo ay iniwisik sa ibabaw ng dambana.

7 At kaniyang kinuha ang aklat ng tipan, at binasa sa pakinig ng bayan: at kanilang sinabi, Lahat ng sinalita ng Panginoon ay aming gagawin, at kami ay magmamasunurin.

8 At kinuha ni Moises ang dugo at iniwisik sa bayan, at sinabi, Narito ang dugo ng tipan, na ipinakipagtipan ng Panginoon sa inyo tungkol sa lahat ng mga salitang ito.

9 Nang magkagayo'y sumampa si Moises, at si Aaron, si Nadab, at si Abiu, at pitongpu ng mga matanda sa Israel:

10 At kanilang nakita ang Dios ng Israel; at mayroon sa ilalim ng kaniyang mga paa na parang isang yaring lapag na batong zafiro, at paris din ng langit sa kaliwanagan.

11 At sa mga mahal na tao sa mga anak ni Israel ay hindi niya ipinatong ang kaniyang kamay: at sila'y tumingin sa Dios, at kumain at uminom.

12 At sinabi ng Panginoon kay Moises, Sampahin mo ako sa bundok, at dumoon ka: at ikaw ay bibigyan ko ng mga tapyas na bato, at ng kautusan, at ng utos na aking isinulat, upang iyong maituro sa kanila.

13 At tumindig si Moises, at si Josue na kaniyang tagapangasiwa: at si Moises ay sumampa sa bundok ng Dios.

14 At kaniyang sinabi sa mga matanda, Hintayin ninyo kami rito hanggang sa kami ay bumalik sa inyo: at, narito si Aaron at si Hur ay kasama ninyo: sinomang magkaroon ng usap ay lumapit sa kanila.

15 At sumampa si Moises sa bundok at tinakpan ng ulap ang bundok.

16 At ang kaluwalhatian ng Panginoon ay nanahan sa ibabaw ng bundok ng Sinai, at tinakpan ng ulap na anim na araw: at sa ikapitong araw ay tinawag niya si Moises sa gitna ng ulap.

17 At ang anyo ng kaluwalhatian ng Panginoon ay paris ng apoy na manunupok sa ibabaw ng taluktok ng bundok, sa harap ng mga mata ng mga anak ni Israel.

18 At pumasok si Moises sa gitna ng ulap, at sumampa sa bundok: at si Moises ay natira sa bundok na apat na pung araw at apat na pung gabi.

366. That they should kill one another. That this signifies the falsification or extinction of truths, is manifest from the signification of killing, as denoting to extinguish truths; for by killing in the Word is signified to kill spiritually, or to kill the spiritual part of man or his soul, which is to extinguish truths. The reason why it also denotes to falsify, is, because when truths are falsified, they are also extinguished; for by falsification a different understanding of them is arrived at, and truth is truth according to the understanding of any one concerning it; for the love and the principle which have rule in man, draw and apply all things to them, even truths themselves; wherefore, when the love is evil, or the principle false, then the truths are infected with the evil of the love, or the falsity of the principle, and so are extinguished; this therefore is what is here signified by, "that they should kill one another." That this takes place when there is no good with man, and especially when there is no good in the doctrine of his church, is manifest from the preceding words, where it is said: "When he had opened the second seal, there went out a red horse; and it was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth"; by which is signified a second state of the church, when the understanding of the Word is destroyed as to good, whence divisions arise in the church (concerning which see above, n. 361, 364, 365).

[2] That the understanding of the Word, or, what is the same, the understanding of truth, is destroyed when there is no good with man, that is, where there is no love to the Lord and charity towards the neighbour, may be seen above (n. 365); for good in man, or what is the same, love in him, is the fire of his life, and truth in him, or the faith of truth, is the light thence; therefore according to the quality of the good or the quality of the love in him, such is the truth, or the faith of truth in him. Hence it is evident that if man is in evil, or in an evil love, he cannot be in the truth, or in the faith of truth; for the quality of the light which issues from that fire, is light to those who are in hell, which is a fatuous light, like the light from burning coals, which light is turned into mere darkness from the light flowing in from heaven. Such also is the light called natural light (lumen) with the evil, when they reason against the things of the church.

[3] That they should falsify truths and thereby extinguish them, is also meant by the Lord's words in Matthew:

Jesus said to the disciples, "The brother shall deliver up the brother, the father the son; the children shall rise up against the parents, and cause them to be put to death" (10:21).

And in Luke:

"Ye shall be betrayed by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolk, and friends; and some of you shall they cause to be put to death" (21:16).

By parents, brethren, children, [kinsfolk,] and friends, are not meant here parents, brethren, children, kinsfolk, friends, nor by disciples are meant disciples, but the goods and truths of the church, also evils and falsities; and that evils will extinguish goods, and falsities truths. (That such things are signified by these names, see the Arcana Coelestia 10490.)

4280. In that lower sense the words 'he touched the hollow of Jacob's thigh' mean where conjugial love is joined to natural good. This is clear from the meaning of 'the hollow of the thigh' as the place where conjugial love is linked to it, see above in 4277. The reason why the place where it is linked to natural good is meant is that it is the place where the thigh is joined to the feet. 'The feet' in the internal sense means natural good, see 2162, 3147, 3761, 3986.

[2] As regards 'the thigh' meaning conjugial love and 'the feet' natural good, that is one of those realities known in the past which have grown old and died. The Ancient Church, which existed in an age of representatives and meaningful signs, was extremely well acquainted with these meanings, such knowledge of them constituting their intelligence and wisdom. Indeed it constituted the intelligence and wisdom not only of those who belonged to the Church but also of those outside the Church, as becomes clear from the oldest books written by gentiles and from the stories in them which are nowadays called myths - for meaningful signs and representatives spread from the Ancient Church to those gentiles. With these also 'the thighs and loins' meant that which belonged to marriage, and 'the feet' things that were natural. The origin of this meaning of 'the thighs and the feet' lies in the correspondences of all the members, organs, and viscera of the human being with the Grand Man, which - that is to say, such correspondences - are being dealt with now at the ends of chapters. The correspondences with the thigh and the feet will be discussed again further on, where actual experience will be used to corroborate that their meaning is as indicated above.

[3] These things are bound to seem like enigmas at the present day because, as has been stated, that knowledge has grown very old indeed and died. Yet how far that knowledge excels other types of knowledge becomes clear from the consideration that the internal sense of the Word cannot possibly be known without that knowledge, as well as for the reason that the angels present with man perceive the Word according to that sense. It becomes clear also from the consideration that by means of that knowledge man is provided with communication with heaven. And what is unbelievable, the internal man himself does not think in any other way; for when the external man understands the Word according to the letter the internal man does so according to the internal sense, though while living in the body a person is not at all conscious of doing so. This becomes particularly clear from the fact that when anyone enters the next life and becomes an angel he has no need to learn the internal sense but knows it instinctively, so to speak.

[4] What conjugial love is which is meant by 'the thighs' and also by 'the loins', see 995, 1123, 2727-2759; and conjugial love is the basic love of all loves, 686, 3021. Consequently people who have genuine conjugial love in them also have celestial love, which is love to the Lord, and spiritual love, which is charity towards the neighbour. For this reason the expression 'conjugial love' is used to mean not only that love itself but also all celestial and spiritual love. These kinds of love are said to be joined to natural good when the internal man is joined to the external, that is, the spiritual man to the natural - that joining together of them being meant by 'the hollow of the thigh'. The fact that with Jacob and his descendants in general no such conjunction existed will be evident from what follows, for this is the subject dealt with here in the internal historical sense.
