1 Ja sinun pitää ottaman tykös sinun veljes Aaronin poikinensa Israelin lasten seasta, että hän olis minun pappini: Aaron ja hänen poikansa Nadab, Abihu, Eleatsar ja Itamar.

2 Ja sinun pitää tekemän veljelles Aaronille pyhät vaatteet, kunniaksi ja kaunistukseksi.

3 Ja sinun pitää myös puhuman kaikkein niiden kanssa, joilla taitava sydän on, jotka minä taidon hengellä täyttänyt olen, että he tekevät vaatteita Aaronille hänen pyhittämiseksensä, että hän olis minun pappini.

4 Ja nämät ovat vaatteet, jotka heidän tekemän pitää: kilpi, päällisvaate, hame, ahdashame, hiippa ja vyö. Ja näin pitää heidän tekemän sinun veljelles Aaronille ja hänen pojillensa pyhät vaatteet, että hän minun pappini olis.

5 Siihen pitää heidän ottaman kultaa, sinisiä, purpuraisia ja tulipunaisia villoja, ja kallista liinaa.

6 Päällisvaatteen pitää heidän tekemän kullasta, ja sinisistä, purpuraisista ja tulipunaisista villoista, ja kalliisti kerratusta liinasta, taitavasti.

7 Että se yhdistettäisiin molempain olkain päältä ja sidottaisiin yhteen molemmilta puolilta.

8 Ja hänen päällisvaatteensa vyö, kuin sen päällä on, pitää oleman yhdellä tavalla tehty, kullasta, sinivilloista, purpurasta ja tulipunaisista villoista, ja kalliista kerratusta liinalangasta.

9 Ja sinun pitää ottaman kaksi onikin kiveä, ja kaivaman niihin Israelin poikain nimet.

10 Heidän kuusi nimeänsä yhteen kiveen, ja toiset kuusi nimeä toiseen kiveen, sen jälkeen kuin he syntyneet ovat.

11 Niinkuin kivenvuolia sinetin kaivaa, pitää sinun taitavasti kaivaman niihin kahteen kiveen Israelin lasten nimet, ja ne kultaan sisälle sulkeman.

12 Ja sinun pitää ne molemmat kivet paneman hartioille päällisvaatteeseen, että ne ovat muistokivet Israelin lapsille: ja Aaronin pitää kantaman heidän nimensä Herran edessä molemmilla olillansa muistoksi.

13 Ja sinun pitää tekemän kultaiset nastat.

14 Ja kahdet vitjat puhtaasta kullasta, joilla päät ovat, pitää sinun tekemän, taitavasti väätyt: ne väätyt vitjat pitää sinun yhdistämän nastoihin.

15 Virankilven pitää sinun myös tekemän taitavasti, niinkuin päällisvaatteenkin pitää sinun sen tekemän: kullasta, sinisistä ja purpuraisista, ja tulipunaisista villoista, ja kerratusta kalliin liinan langasta sinun sen tekemän pitää.

16 Neljäkulmaisen pitää sen oleman ja kaksinkertaisen, kämmenen leveys hänen pituutensa, ja kämmenen leveytensä.

17 Ja sinun pitää täyttämän sen täyttymys kivillä, neljällä kivirivillä. Ensimäinen rivi pitää oleman sardius, topats, smaragdi.

18 Toinen rivi: rubiin, saphiir, demanti.

19 Kolmas rivi: linkurius, akat ja ametisti.

20 Neljäs rivi: turkos, oniks ja jaspis: kultaan pitää ne istutettaman kaikilta riveiltä.

21 Ja ne kivet pitää oleman kahdentoistakymmenen Israelin lasten nimen jälkeen, kaivetut kivenvuolialta jokainen nimeltänsä, kahdentoistakymmenen sukukunnan jälkeen.

22 Ja sinun pitää tekemän vitjat kilpeen, yhden pituiset, taitavasti väätyt, puhtaasta kullasta.

23 Ja sinun pitää tekemän kilpeen kaksi kultarengasta, ja paneman ne molemmat renkaat kahteen kilven kulmaan.

24 Ja pistämään ne kaksi kultavitjaa kahteen renkaaseen kilven kulmiin.

25 Mutta ne kaksi päätä niistä kahdesta vitjasta pitää sinun antaman tulla kahteen nastaan, ja paneman päällisvaatteeseen hartioille, toinen toisensa kohdalle.

26 Ja sinun pitää tekemän kaksi kultaista rengasta, ja paneman ne molempiin kilven kulmiin: sen reunaan sisälliselle puolelle päällisvaatetta.

27 Ja sinun pitää tekemän kaksi kultarengasta, ja paneman ne päällisvaatteen molemmille olkapäille toinen toisensa kohdalle, alaspäin, sen saumaa vasten, vaatteen vyön päälle.

28 Ja rintavaate pitää yhdistettämän renkaillansa sinisellä siteellä päällisvaatteen renkaisiin, niin että se olis päällisvaatetta liki, ettei rintavaate eriäis päällisvaatteesta.

29 Ja niin pitää Aaronin kantaman Israelin lasten nimet virankilvessä sydämensä päällä, koska hän pyhään sisälle menee, muistoksi Herran edessä alinomaisesti.

30 Ja sinun pitää paneman virankilpeen valkeudet ja täydellisyydet, jotka pitää oleman Aaronin sydämen päällä, koska hän menee Herran eteen. Ja niin pitää Aaronin kantaman Israelin lasten oikeuden sydämensä päällä aina Herran edessä.

31 Sinun pitää myös tekemän päällisvaatteen alle hameen, kaiken sinisistä villoista.

32 Ja ylinnä siinä pitää keskellä oleman pään läpi, ja sepalus sen läven ympärillä, pallistettu yhteen niinkuin pantsarin läpi, ettei se kehkiäisi.

33 Ja alhaalle hänen liepeisiinsä pitää sinun tekemän niinkuin granatin omenat sinisistä, purpuraisista ja tulipunaisista villoista ympärinsä: ja niiden keskelle kultaiset kulkuiset ympärinsä.

34 Niin että siinä on kultainen kulkuinen, ja sitälikin granatin omena: ja taas kultainen kulkuinen granatin omenan kanssa, ympärinsä hameen liepeitä.

35 Ja Aaron pitää sen päällensä pitämän, koska hän palveluksen tekee, niin että siitä kuullaan kulina, koska hän menee pyhään, Herran eteen, ja hän käy ulos, ettei hän kuolisi.

36 Sinun pitää myös tekemän otsalehden puhtaasta kullasta, ja kaivaman siihen, niinkuin sinetti kaivetaan, HERRAN PYHYYS.

37 Ja sinun pitää sen sitoman sinisellä langalla, niin että se on hiipan päällä: etisellä puolella hiippaa sen pitää oleman.

38 Ja sen pitää oleman Aaronin otsalla, niin että Aaron kantaa pyhäin vääryyden, kuin Israelin lapset pyhittivät, kaikissa heidän pyhyytensä lahjoissa. Ja se pitää alinomati oleman hänen otsassansa, heille mielisuosioksi Herran edessä.

39 Sinun pitää myös tekemän ahtaan hameen kalliista liinasta, ja hiipan kalliista liinasta: ja taitavasti ommellun vyön pitää myös tekemän.

40 Ja Aaronin pojille pitää sinun tekemän hameita, vöitä ja hiippoja, kunniaksi ja kaunistukseksi.

41 Ja sinun pitää ne puettaman veljes Aaronin ja hänen poikainsa ylle, ja pitää voiteleman heitä, ja täyttämän heidän kätensä, ja pyhittämän heitä, että he olisivat minun pappini.

42 Ja pitää tekemän heille liinaiset alusvaatteet, peittääksensä häpylihansa: kupeista niin reisiin asti pitää ne oleman.

43 Ja Aaron poikinensa pitää ne yllänsä pitämän, koska he menevät seurakunnan majaan, eli koska he lähestyvät alttaria palvelusta tekemään pyhässä, ettei heille kostettaisi heidän vääryyttänsä, ja he kuolisi. Se pitää oleman hänelle ja hänen siemenellensä hänen jälkeensä ijankaikkinen sääty.

9959. 'And make for them linen undergarments' means an external level of conjugial love. This is clear from the meaning of 'undergarments' as an external level of conjugial love, dealt with below; and from the meaning of 'linen' as external truth or natural truth, also dealt with below. The reason why an external level of conjugial love is meant by 'undergarments' is that garments or coverings derive their meaning from the part of the body they cover, 9827, and the loins and genital organs, which the undergarments clothe or cover, mean conjugial love. For 'the loins' and their meaning this love, see 3021, 4280, 4575; and for 'the genital organs' and their meaning it, 4462, 5050-5062. What truly conjugial love is will be stated below in 9960.

[2] The undergarments were made from linen because 'linen' or 'flax' means external truth or natural truth, 7601, and what constitutes the actual external is truth. The reason why truth constitutes the external is that internal things terminate in external ones and rest on them as their underlying supports, and the underlying supports of good are truths. These are like the foundations on which a house is built or on which a house rests, which is why the truths of faith springing from good are meant by the foundations of a house, 9643. Truths furthermore are what protect forms of good from and withstand evils and falsities, all the power that good possesses being exerted by means of truths, 9643. So it is also that the last and lowest part of heaven is inhabited by those who are guided by truths of faith springing from good. So it is also therefore that what is last or most external with a person, namely his external skin, corresponds to those in heaven who are guided by the truths of faith, 5552-5559, 8980, yet not to those who uphold faith separated from good, since they are not in heaven. From all this it may now be recognized why the undergarments were made from linen or flax. Aaron's undergarment however, when he was clothed with the garments which were 'for glorious adornment', and which have been the subject in the present chapter, was made of fine linen together with interwoven fine linen, as is evident from a later chapter where it says,

They made tunics of fine linen, the work of a weaver, and a turban of fine linen, and attractive headdresses 1 from fine linen, and linen undergarments with fine twined linen. Exodus 39:27-28.

But when he was clothed with the 'holy garments' Aaron's undergarment was made of linen alone, as is clear from the following in Moses,

When Aaron comes into the sanctuary within the veil he shall put on the holy linen tunic, and the linen undergarment shall be over his flesh, and he shall gird himself with the linen belt, and place the linen turban on himself. These are holy garments. He shall also wash his flesh with water when he puts them on. He shall then first offer burnt offerings and sacrifices, by means of which he will expiate the holy place from uncleannesses. Leviticus 16:1-end.

[3] The reason why Aaron was to go at that time clothed in the linen garments, which were also called 'the holy garments', was that at that time he was performing the duty of expiating the tent, and also the people and himself from uncleannesses. And every expiation, which was accomplished by means of washings, burnt offerings, and sacrifices, represented purification of the heart from evils and falsities, and so represented regeneration; and purification from evils and falsities, or regeneration, is accomplished by means of the truths of faith. This was why Aaron wore the linen garments then, for the truths of faith are meant by 'linen garments', as stated above.

All purification from evils and falsities is accomplished by means of the truths of faith, see 2799, 5954 (end), 7044, 7918, 9089. So therefore is regeneration, 1555, 2046, 2063, 2979, 3332, 3665, 3690, 3786, 3876, 3877, 4096, 4097, 5893, 6247, 8635, 8638-8640, 8772, 9088, 9089, 9103.

[4] It was for the same reason also that the priest was to put on the linen robe and the linen undergarment when he carried the ash away from the altar, Leviticus 6:9-11, and also that 'the priests, the Levites, from the sons of Zadok' were to put it on, when they entered the sanctuary, regarding whom the following is stated in Ezekiel,

The priests, the Levites, the sons of Zadok, shall enter My sanctuary, and they shall draw near My table to minister to Me. When they enter the gates of the inner court they shall put on the linen garments, and no wool shall come upon them. When they minister in the gates of the inner court, and within, the linen turbans shall be on their heads, and the linen undergarments shall be over their loins. They shall not gird themselves with sweat. 2 Ezekiel 44:15-18.

The subject in this passage is the new temple, by which a new Church is meant. By 'the priests, the Levites' those guided by truths springing from good are meant, and by 'the linen garments' the truths of faith by means of which purification and regeneration are accomplished. 'Not girding themselves with sweat' means that the holy things of worship should not be mingled with the human self; for 'sweat' means the human self or proprium, and the human proprium is nothing but evil and falsity, 210, 215, 694, 874-876, 987, 1047, 3812 (end), 8480, 8941.

[5] The reason why the undergarment Aaron wore when he was clothed with the garments 'for glorious adornment' was made of linen together with fine twined linen, as is evident from Exodus 39:27-28, quoted above, was that Aaron in those garments represented the Lord in respect of Divine Good in the heavens, Aaron himself representing the Lord in respect of the Divine Celestial there, his garments the Lord in respect of the Divine Spiritual there emanating from the Divine Celestial, 9814, and fine linen the Divine Spiritual emanating from the Divine Celestial, 5319, 9469.

1 Yahweh spoke to Moses, after the death of the two sons of Aaron, when they drew near before Yahweh, and died;

2 and Yahweh said to Moses, "Tell Aaron your brother, not to come at all times into the Most Holy Place within the veil, before the mercy seat which is on the ark; lest he die: for I will appear in the cloud on the mercy seat.

3 "Herewith shall Aaron come into the sanctuary: with a young bull for a sin offering, and a ram for a burnt offering.

4 He shall put on the holy linen coat, and he shall have the linen breeches on his body, and shall put on the linen sash, and he shall be clothed with the linen turban. They are the holy garments. He shall bathe his body in water, and put them on.

5 He shall take from the congregation of the children of Israel two male goats for a sin offering, and one ram for a burnt offering.

6 "Aaron shall offer the bull of the sin offering, which is for himself, and make atonement for himself and for his house.

7 He shall take the two goats, and set them before Yahweh at the door of the Tent of Meeting.

8 Aaron shall cast lots for the two goats; one lot for Yahweh, and the other lot for the scapegoat.

9 Aaron shall present the goat on which the lot fell for Yahweh, and offer him for a sin offering.

10 But the goat, on which the lot fell for the scapegoat, shall be presented alive before Yahweh, to make atonement for him, to send him away for the scapegoat into the wilderness.

11 "Aaron shall present the bull of the sin offering, which is for himself, and shall make atonement for himself and for his house, and shall kill the bull of the sin offering which is for himself.

12 He shall take a censer full of coals of fire from off the altar before Yahweh, and two handfuls of sweet incense beaten small, and bring it within the veil:

13 and he shall put the incense on the fire before Yahweh, that the cloud of the incense may cover the mercy seat that is on the testimony, so that he will not die.

14 He shall take some of the blood of the bull, and sprinkle it with his finger on the mercy seat on the east; and before the mercy seat he shall sprinkle some of the blood with his finger seven times.

15 "Then he shall kill the goat of the sin offering, that is for the people, and bring his blood within the veil, and do with his blood as he did with the blood of the bull, and sprinkle it on the mercy seat, and before the mercy seat:

16 and he shall make atonement for the Holy Place, because of the uncleanness of the children of Israel, and because of their transgressions, even all their sins; and so he shall do for the Tent of Meeting, that dwells with them in the midst of their uncleanness.

17 No one shall be in the Tent of Meeting when he enters to make atonement in the Holy Place, until he comes out, and has made atonement for himself and for his household, and for all the assembly of Israel.

18 "He shall go out to the altar that is before Yahweh and make atonement for it, and shall take some of the bull's blood, and some of the goat's blood, and put it around on the horns of the altar.

19 He shall sprinkle some of the blood on it with his finger seven times, and cleanse it, and make it holy from the uncleanness of the children of Israel.

20 "When he has made an end of atoning for the Holy Place, the Tent of Meeting, and the altar, he shall present the live goat.

21 Aaron shall lay both his hands on the head of the live goat, and confess over him all the iniquities of the children of Israel, and all their transgressions, even all their sins; and he shall put them on the head of the goat, and shall send him away into the wilderness by the hand of a man who is in readiness.

22 The goat shall carry all their iniquities on himself to a solitary land, and he shall let the goat go in the wilderness.

23 "Aaron shall come into the Tent of Meeting, and shall take off the linen garments, which he put on when he went into the Holy Place, and shall leave them there.

24 Then he shall bathe himself in water in a holy place, and put on his garments, and come out and offer his burnt offering and the burnt offering of the people, and make atonement for himself and for the people.

25 The fat of the sin offering he shall burn on the altar.

26 "He who lets the goat go for the scapegoat shall wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in water, and afterward he shall come into the camp.

27 The bull for the sin offering, and the goat for the sin offering, whose blood was brought in to make atonement in the Holy Place, shall be carried forth outside the camp; and they shall burn their skins, their flesh, and their dung with fire.

28 He who burns them shall wash his clothes, and bathe his flesh in water, and afterward he shall come into the camp.

29 "It shall be a statute to you forever: in the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, you shall afflict your souls, and shall do no kind of work, the native-born, or the stranger who lives as a foreigner among you:

30 for on this day shall atonement be made for you, to cleanse you; from all your sins you shall be clean before Yahweh.

31 It is a Sabbath of solemn rest to you, and you shall afflict your souls; it is a statute forever.

32 The priest, who is anointed and who is consecrated to be priest in his father's place, shall make the atonement, and shall put on the linen garments, even the holy garments.

33 Then he shall make atonement for the Holy Sanctuary; and he shall make atonement for the Tent of Meeting and for the altar; and he shall make atonement for the priests and for all the people of the assembly.

34 "This shall be an everlasting statute for you, to make atonement for the children of Israel once in the year because of all their sins." It was done as Yahweh commanded Moses.
