1 A hajlékot pedig tíz kárpitból csináld: sodrott lenbõl, és kék, és bíborpiros, és karmazsin színûbõl, Kérubokkal, mestermunkával készítsd azokat.

2 Egy-Egy kárpit hossza huszonnyolcz sing legyen, Egy-Egy kárpit szélessége pedig négy sing; Egy mértéke legyen mindenik kárpitnak.

3 Öt kárpit legyen egymással egybefoglalva, ismét öt kárpit egymással egybefoglalva.

4 És csinálj hurkokat kék lenbõl az egyik kárpit szélén, a mely az egybefoglaltak között szélrõl van; ugyanezt csináld a szélsõ kárpit szélével a másik egybefoglalásban is.

5 Ötven hurkot csinálj az egyik kárpiton; Ötven hurkot csinálj ama kárpit szélén is, a mely a másik egybefoglalásban van; egyik hurok a másiknak általellenében legyen.

6 Csinálj ötven arany horgocskát is, és e horgocskákkal foglald össze egyik kárpitot a másikkal, hogy a hajlék egygyé legyen.

7 Ezután csinálj kecskeszõr kárpitokat sátorul a hajlék fölé; tizenegy kárpitot csinálj ilyet.

8 Egy kárpit hossza harmincz sing legyen, szélessége pedig Egy kárpitnak négy sing; Egy mértéke legyen a tizenegy kárpitnak.

9 És foglald egybe az öt kárpitot külön, és a hat kárpitot külön; a hatodik kárpitot pedig kétrét hajtsd a sátor elejére.

10 És csinálj ötven hurkot az egyik kárpit szélén, a mely az egybefoglaltak között szélrõl van; és ötven hurkot a kárpit szélén a másik egybefoglalásban is.

11 Csinálj ötven rézhorgocskát is, és akaszd a horgocskákat a hurkokba, és foglald egybe a sátort, hogy egygyé legyen.

12 A sátor kárpitjának fölösleges része, a fölösleges kárpitnak fele csüggjön alá a hajlék hátulján.

13 Egy singnyi pedig egyfelõl, és egy singnyi másfelõl, abból, a mi a sátor kárpitjainak hosszában fölösleges, bocsáttassék alá a hajlék oldalain egyfelõl is, másfelõl is, hogy befedje azt.

14 Csinálj a sátornak takarót is veresre festett kosbõrökbõl, és e fölé is egy takarót borzbõrökbõl.

15 Csinálj a hajlékhoz deszkákat is sittim-fából, felállogatva.

16 A deszka hossza tíz sing legyen; egy-egy deszka szélessége pedig másfél sing.

17 Egy-Egy deszkának két csapja legyen, egyik a másiknak megfelelõ; így csináld a hajlék minden deszkáját.

18 A deszkákat pedig így csináld a hajlékhoz: húsz deszkát a déli oldalra, délfelé.

19 A húsz deszka alá pedig negyven ezüst talpat csinálj, két talpat egy-egy deszka alá, annak két csapjához képest; megint két talpat egy-egy deszka alá, a két csapjához képest.

20 A hajlék másik oldalául is, észak felõl húsz deszkát.

21 És azokhoz is negyven ezüst talpat; két talpat egy deszka alá, megint két talpat egy deszka alá.

22 A hajlék nyugoti oldalául pedig csinálj hat deszkát.

23 A hajlék szegleteiül is csinálj két deszkát a két oldalon.

24 Kettõsen legyenek alólról kezdve, felül pedig együtt legyenek egy karikába foglalva; ilyen legyen mindkettõ; a két szeglet számára legyenek.

25 Legyen azért nyolcz deszka, és azokhoz tizenhat ezüst talp; két talp egy deszka alatt, megint két talp egy deszka alatt.

26 Csinálj reteszrúdakat is sittim-fából; ötöt a hajlék egyik oldalának deszkáihoz.

27 És öt reteszrúdat a hajlék másik oldalának deszkáihoz; és a hajlék nyugoti oldalának deszkáihoz is öt reteszrúdat hátulról.

28 A középsõ reteszrúd pedig a deszkák közepén az egyik végtõl a másik végig érjen.

29 A deszkákat pedig borítsd meg aranynyal, és karikákat is aranyból csinálj azokhoz a reteszrúdak tartói gyanánt; a reteszrúdakat is megborítsd aranynyal.

30 A hajlékot pedig azon a módon állítsd fel, a mint néked a hegyen mutattatott.

31 És csinálj függönyt, kék, és bíborpiros, és karmazsinszínû, és sodrott lenbõl; Kérubokkal, mestermunkával készítsék azt.

32 És tedd azt sittim-fából való, aranynyal borított négy oszlopra, a melyeknek horgai aranyból legyenek, négy ezüst talpon.

33 És tedd a függönyt a horgok alá, és vidd oda a függöny mögé a bizonyság ládáját és az a függöny válaszsza el néktek a szent helyet a szentek szentjétõl.

34 Azután tedd rá a fedelet a bizonyság ládájára a szentek szentjébe.

35 Az asztalt pedig helyezd a függönyön kívül, és a gyertyatartót az asztal ellenébe, a hajlék déli oldalába; az asztalt pedig tedd az északi oldalba.

36 És csinálj leplet a sátor nyilására is, kék, és bíborpiros, és karmazsinszínû, és sodrott lenbõl, hímzõmunkával.

37 A lepelhez pedig csinálj öt oszlopot sittim-fából, és borítsd meg azokat aranynyal; azoknak horgai aranyból [legyenek], és önts azokhoz öt réztalpat.

9670. 'And you shall make a veil' means the intermediary uniting this heaven and the inmost heaven, thus spiritual good to celestial good. This is clear from the meaning of 'a veil' - which served to divide the dwelling-place where the ark of the Testimony was from the part where the lampstand was and the table on which the loaves of the Presence were laid was - as the intermediary uniting the middle heaven to the inmost heaven. For the ark containing the Testimony represented the inmost heaven, where the Lord was, 9457, 9481, 9485, and the dwelling-place outside the veil represented the middle heaven, 9594. And since the good of love to the Lord composes the inmost heaven and the good of charity towards the neighbour composes the middle heaven, 'the veil' also means the intermediary uniting spiritual good to celestial good, spiritual good being the good of charity towards the neighbour, and celestial good being the good of love to the Lord. For more about those heavens, about their distinctions in accordance with those kinds of good, see the places referred to in 9277. From all this it is now evident what the veil was a sign of in both the tabernacle and the temple.

[2] These two heavens, the inmost and the middle, are so distinct and separate that there can be no entering from one into the other. Yet they constitute one heaven through intermediate angelic communities, whose disposition is such that they are able to be next door to the good of both heavens. These communities are the ones which constitute the uniting intermediary that was represented by the veil. I have also been allowed to speak on several occasions to angels from those communities. What the angels of the inmost heaven are like, and what the angels of the middle heaven in comparison are like can be demonstrated from correspondence. The angels of the inmost heaven correspond to those powers with a person which belong to the provinces of the heart and the cerebellum, whereas the angels of the middle heaven correspond to those powers with a person which belong to the provinces of the lungs and the cerebrum. The powers belonging to the heart and cerebellum are called involuntary and spontaneous, because that is what they are seen as being; but those belonging to the lungs and cerebrum are called voluntary. This to some extent demonstrates how superior the perfection of the one heaven is to that of the other, and how they differ from each other. But as for the intermediate angels next door to both heavens and linking them together, it is the networks extending from the heart and lungs, which serve to interconnect the heart and lungs, that correspond to them, and also the medulla oblongata, where the fibres of the cerebellum are joined to the fibres of the cerebrum.

[3] Angels who belong to the Lord's celestial kingdom, that is, who are in the inmost heaven, constitute the province of the heart in the Grand Man, while angels who belong to the Lord's spiritual kingdom, that is, who are in the middle heaven, constitute the province of the lungs there, see 3635, 3886-3890. This is the origin of the correspondence of the human heart and lungs, 3883-3896, and the correspondence of the cerebrum and cerebellum is much the same. What celestial angels or those who are in the inmost heaven are like, and what spiritual angels or those who are in the middle heaven are like, and what the difference is, see 2046, 2227, 2669, 2708, 2715, 2718, 2935, 2937, 2954, 3166, 3235, 3236, 3240, 3246, 3374, 3833, 3887, 3969, 4138, 4286, 4493, 4585, 4938, 5113, 5150, 5922, 6289, 6296, 6366, 6427, 6435, 6500, 6647, 6648, 7091, 7233, 7474, 7977, 7992, 8042, 8152, 8234, 8521. From this it may be evident what the intermediate angels who constitute the uniting intermediary, which was represented by the veil, are like.

[4] The tearing of the veil of the temple into two parts when the Lord endured the Cross, Matthew 27:51; Mark 15:38; Luke 23:45, was a sign of the glorification of the Lord. For when the Lord was in the world He made the Human He had assumed Divine Truth; but when He left the world He made this Human Divine Good, from which Divine Truth has since emanated, see the places referred to at the ends of 9199, 9315, Divine Good being meant by 'the holy of holies'.

[5] The glorification of the Lord's Human all the way to Divine Good which is Jehovah is also described, in the internal sense, by the process of expiation when Aaron went into the holy of holies within the veil, which is the subject in the whole of Leviticus 16. In the relative sense the same process describes human regeneration all the way to celestial good, which is the good of the inmost heaven. The process was as follows: Aaron was required to take a young bull for a [sin] sacrifice, and a ram for a burnt offering for himself and his household. He also had to put on the holy garments, which were a linen tunic, linen stockings, 1 a linen girdle, and a linen turban; and he had to bathe his flesh in water. He was then required to take two he-goats on which he cast lots, the first of which was to be offered to Jehovah and the second sent away into the wilderness, this being done on behalf of the assembly of the children of Israel. When he sacrificed the young bull he was required to take incense inside the veil and to sprinkle some of the blood of the young bull and of the he-goat seven times over the east side of the mercy-seat, and also to put blood onto the horns of the altar. After all this he was required to confess the sins of the children of Israel, which he placed on the he-goat that was to be sent away into the wilderness. Finally he had to take off the linen garments and put on his own, and to present a burnt offering for himself and for the people; and parts of the sacrifice that had not been burnt on the altar had to be taken away outside the camp and burned. This was what had to be done once a year, when Aaron went into the holy of holies within the veil. The priestly function which Aaron discharged represented the Lord in respect of Divine Good, just as the regal function, which in later times was performed by the kings, represented the Lord in respect of Divine Truth, 6148. The process of glorification of the Lord's Human all the way to Divine Good is described in the internal sense of that chapter in Leviticus. This process was revealed to angels whenever Aaron carried out those observances and went inside the veil; and it is also revealed to angels here and now when that chapter in the Word is read.

[6] A young bull for a sin sacrifice 2 and a ram for a burnt offering mean the purification of good from evils in the external man and in the internal man. The linen tunic, linen stockings, linen girdle, and linen turban which Aaron had to put on whenever he went in, and the bathing of his flesh, mean that this purification was accomplished by means of truths springing from good. Two he-goats of the she-goats for a sin sacrifice 2 and a ram for a burnt offering, and the he-goat which was offered and the other which was sent away, mean the purification of truth from falsities in the external man. The incense which he was required to take inside the veil means adaptation. The blood of the young bull and the blood of the he-goat which had to be sprinkled seven times over the east side of the mercy-seat and after this over the horns of the altar mean Divine Truth that emanates from Divine Good. The confession of sins over the living he-goat which was to be sent away into the wilderness means the casting away of evil after its total separation from good. Taking off the linen garments and putting on his own when he was about to present burnt offerings, also the taking away of the flesh, skin, and dung of sacrifices outside the camp, and the burning of them, mean putting on celestial good, in the case of one who has been regenerated, and in the Lord's case the glorification of His Human all the way to Divine Good. This stage was reached after He had cast aside everything belonging to the human from His mother, so completely that He was no longer her son, see the places referred to at the end of 9315. These are the realities that are meant by that process of purification when Aaron went into the holy of holies within the veil; for after he had carried out those observances Aaron represented the Lord in respect of Divine Good. From all this it becomes clear that the veil between the holy place and the holy of holies also means the intermediary uniting Divine Truth and Divine Good within the Lord.

5149. 'And the birds were eating them out of the basket, from upon my head' means that falsity originating in evil would consume it. This is clear from the meaning of 'the birds' as intellectual concepts and also thoughts, and consequently the things which flow from them - in the genuine sense truths of every kind, and in the contrary sense falsities - dealt with in 40, 745, 776, 778, 866, 988, 7219; from the meaning of eating' as consuming (in the original language the verb to eat also denotes to consume); and from the meaning of 'the basket' as the will part of the mind, dealt with in 5144, 5146, in this case evil coming from the will part since the basket has holes in it, 5145. From this it follows that 'the birds were eating them out of the basket, from upon his head' means that falsity originating in evil would consume it.

[2] Falsity has two different origins, doctrine and evil. Falsity originating in doctrine does not consume any form of good, for a person can have such falsity in his mind and yet desire what is good, which is why people taught any kind of doctrine, including gentiles, can be saved. But falsity originating in evil is falsity which does consume good. Evil itself is opposed to good; yet it does not by itself consume any good but relies on falsity to do so. For falsity attacks the truths which are the defenders of good, those truths being so to speak the ramparts behind which good resides. Falsity is used to attack those ramparts, and once this has been done, good is given over to destruction.

[3] Anyone unacquainted with the fact that 'birds' means intellectual concepts will inevitably suppose that when mentioned in the Word the expression 'birds' is either used to mean birds literally or else is used, as in everyday speech, in a figurative sense. Except from the internal sense no one can know that 'birds' means things belonging to the understanding, such as thoughts, ideas, reasonings, basic assumptions, and consequently truths or falsities, as in Luke,

The kingdom of God is like a grain of mustard seed, which someone took and sowed in his garden, and it grew and became a big tree so that the birds of the air dwelt in its branches. Luke 13:19.

'The birds of the air' here stands for truths.

[4] In Ezekiel,

It will turn into a noble cedar, and under it will dwell every bird of every sort; 1 in the shade of its branches they will dwell. Ezekiel 17:23.

'Bird of every sort' stands for truths of every kind. In the same prophet,

Asshur was a cedar in Lebanon. In its branches all the birds of the air made their nests, and under its branches every beast of the field brought forth, and in its shadow dwelt all great nations. Ezekiel 31:3, 6.

'The birds of the air' stands in a similar way for truths.

[5] In the same prophet,

Upon its ruin will dwell every bird of the air, and on its branches will be every wild animal of the field. Ezekiel 31:13.

'Bird of the air' stands for falsities. In Daniel,

Nebuchadnezzar saw in a dream. Behold, a tree in the midst of the earth; under it the beasts of the field had shade, and in its branches dwelt the birds of the air. Daniel 4:10, 12, 14, 21.

Here also 'the birds of the air' stands for falsities.

[6] In Jeremiah,

I looked, and behold, there was no man; and every bird of the air had flown away. Jeremiah 4:25.

'No man' stands for no good, 4287, 'the birds of the air which had flown away' for the fact that truths had been dispersed. In the same prophet,

From bird of the air even to beast they have flown away, they have gone away. Jeremiah 9:10.

Here the meaning is the same. In Matthew,

A sower went out to sow; and some fell on the pathway, and the birds came and devoured it. Matthew 13:3-4.

Here 'the birds of the air' stands for reasonings, and also for falsities. The same meaning may be seen in many other places.
