Студија

   

1 At ilapit mo sa iyo si Aarong iyong kapatid at ang kaniyang mga anak na kasama niya, mula sa gitna ng mga anak ni Israel, upang makapangasiwa sa akin sa katungkulang saserdote, si Aaron, si Nadab at si Abiu, si Eleazar at si Ithamar, na mga anak ni Aaron.

2 At igagawa mo ng mga banal na kasuutan si Aarong iyong kapatid sa ikaluluwalhati at ikagaganda.

3 At iyong sasalitain sa lahat ng matalino, na aking pinagpupuspos ng diwa ng karunungan, na kanilang gawin ang kasuutan ni Aaron, upang siya'y italaga, na siya'y makapangasiwa sa akin sa katungkulang saserdote.

4 At ito ang mga kasuutang kanilang gagawin; isang pektoral, at isang epod, at isang balabal, at isang tunika na tinahing guhitguhit na naaanyong pariparisukat, isang mitra at isang pamigkis: at kanilang igagawa ng mga banal na kasuutan si Aarong iyong kapatid, at ang kaniyang mga anak, upang makapangasiwa sa akin sa katungkulang saserdote.

5 At kukuha sila ng ginto, at ng kayong bughaw, at ng kulay-ube, at ng pula, at ng lino.

6 At kanilang gagawin ang epod na ginto, at kayong bughaw, at kulay-ube, pula, at linong pinili, na yari ng bihasang mangbuburda.

7 Magkakaroon ng dalawang pangbalikat na nagkakasugpong sa dalawang dulo niyaon; upang magkasugpong.

8 At ang mainam na pagkayaring pamigkis na nasa ibabaw ng epod upang ibigkis, ay gagawing gaya ng pagkayari ng epod at kaputol, na ginto, kayong bughaw, at kulay-ube, at pula, at linong pinili.

9 At kukuha ka ng dalawang batong onix, at iyong iuukit na limbag sa ibabaw ng mga yaon ang mga pangalan ng mga anak ni Israel:

10 Anim sa kanilang mga pangalan ay sa isang bato, at ang mga pangalan ng anim na natitira ay sa isang bato, ayon sa kanilang kapanganakan.

11 Nayari ng manguukit sa bato, na gaya ng ukit ng isang panatak, iyong iuukit sa dalawang bato, ayon sa mga pangalan ng mga anak ni Israel: iyong gagawing napamumutihan ng mga kalupkop na ginto.

12 At iyong ilalagay ang dalawang bato sa ibabaw ng pangbalikat ng epod, upang maging mga batong pinakaalaala sa ikagagaling ng mga anak ni Israel: at papasanin ni Aaron ang kanilang mga pangalan sa harap ng Panginoon, sa ibabaw ng kaniyang dalawang balikat, na pinakaalaala.

13 At gagawa ka ng mga kalupkop na ginto:

14 At ng dalawang tanikalang taganas na ginto; parang pisi iyong gagawin na yaring pinili: at iyong ilalapat sa mga kalupkop ang mga tanikalang pinili.

15 At gagawin mo ang pektoral ng kahatulan, na gawa ng bihasang manggagawa; na gaya ng pagkayari ng epod iyong gagawin; gagawin mo na ginto, na bughaw, at kulay-ube, at pula, at linong pinili.

16 Gagawing parisukat at nakatiklop; isang dangkal magkakaroon ang haba niyaon, at isang dangkal ang luwang niyaon.

17 At iyong kakalupkupan ng mga kalupkop na mga bato, apat na hanay na bato: isang hanay na sardio, topacio, at karbungko ang magiging unang hanay;

18 At ang ikalawang hanay, ay isang esmeralda, isang zapiro, at isang diamante;

19 At ang ikatlong hanay ay isang hasinto, isang agata, at isang amatista;

20 At ang ikaapat na hanay ay isang berilo, isang onix, at isang haspe: pawang pamumutihan ng ginto sa kanilang mga kalupkop.

21 At ang mga bato ay iaayos sa mga pangalan ng mga anak ni Israel; labingdalawa, ayon sa mga pangalan nila; gaya ng ukit ng isang panatak, bawa't isa'y ayon sa kanilang pangalan, na magiging ukol sa labing dalawang lipi.

22 At gagawa ka sa ibabaw ng pektoral ng mga tanikalang parang pisi, yaring pinili, na taganas na ginto.

23 At igagawa mo ang ibabaw ng pektoral ng dalawang singsing na ginto, at ilalagay mo ang dalawang singsing sa dalawang sulok ng itaas ng pektoral.

24 At inyong ilalagay ang dalawang pinising tanikalang ginto sa dalawang singsing sa mga sulok ng pektoral.

25 At ang dalawang dulo ng dalawang tanikala ng pinili ay iyong ilalapat sa dalawang kalupkop, at iyong mga ilalagay sa mga pangbalikat ng epod, sa harapan.

26 At gagawa ka ng dalawang singsing na ginto, at mga ilalagay mo sa dalawang sulok ng pektoral sa laylayan niyaon na nasa dakong kabaligtaran ng epod.

27 At gagawa ka ng dalawang singsing na ginto, at iyong mga ikakapit sa dalawang pangbalikat ng epod, sa dakong ibaba, sa harapan, na malapit sa pagkakasugpong sa ibabaw ng mainam na pagkayaring pamigkis ng epod.

28 At kanilang itatali ang pektoral sa pamamagitan ng mga singsing niyaon sa mga singsing ng epod ng isang taling bughaw, upang mamalagi sa ibabaw ng mainam na pagkayaring pamigkis ng epod, at upang ang pektoral ay huwag makalag sa epod.

29 At dadalhin ni Aaron sa kaniyang sinapupunan ang mga pangalan ng mga anak ni Israel na nasa pektoral ng kahatulan pagka siya'y pumapasok sa dakong banal, na pinakaalaala sa harap ng Panginoon, na palagi.

30 At ilalagay mo sa pektoral ng kahatulan ang Urim at ang Tummim at mga ilalagay sa sinapupunan ni Aaron, pagka siya'y pumapasok sa harap ng Panginoon at dadalhing palagi ni Aaron sa harap ng Panginoon ang kahatulan sa mga anak ni Israel na nasa kaniyang sinapupunan.

31 At gagawin mo ang balabal ng epod na taganas na bughaw.

32 At magkakaroon ng isang pinakaleeg sa gitna niyaon: magkakaroon ito ng isang uriang tinahi sa palibot ng pinakaleeg, gaya ng butas ng isang koselete, upang huwag mapunit.

33 At ang saya niyaon ay igagawa mo ng mga granadang bughaw, at kulay-ube, at pula, sa palibot ng saya niyaon; at ng mga kampanilyang ginto sa gitna ng mga yaon sa palibot:

34 Isang kampanilyang ginto at isang granada, isang kampanilyang ginto at isang granada sa saya sa ibaba ng balabal sa palibot.

35 At isusuot ni Aaron upang mangasiwa: at ang tunog niyao'y maririnig pagka siya'y pumapasok sa dakong banal sa harap ng Panginoon, at pagka siya'y lumalabas, upang siya'y huwag mamatay.

36 At gagawa ka ng isang laminang taganas na ginto, at doo'y isusulat mong ukit na ayon sa ukit ng isang panatak, Banal sa Panginoon.

37 At iyong ilalagay sa isang listong bughaw, at malalagay sa ibabaw ng mitra; sa ibabaw ng harapan ng mitra malalagay.

38 At malalagay sa noo ni Aaron, at dadalhin ni Aaron ang kasamaan ng mga banal na bagay, na pakakabanalin ng mga anak ni Israel sa lahat nilang mga banal na kaloob; at malalagay na palagi sa kaniyang noo, upang tanggapin sa harap ng Panginoon.

39 At iyong hahabihin ang kasuutan na anyong parisukat, na lino, at iyong gagawin ang mitra na lino, at iyong gagawin ang pamigkis na yari ng mangbuburda.

40 At iyong igagawa ang mga anak ni Aaron ng mga kasuutan, at iyong igagawa sila ng mga pamigkis, at iyong igagawa sila ng mga tiara sa ikaluluwalhati at ikagaganda.

41 At iyong isusuot kay Aarong iyong kapatid at sa kaniyang mga anak na kasama niya; at iyong papahiran ng langis sila, at iyong itatalaga sila, at iyong papagbanalin sila, upang sila'y makapangasiwa sa akin, sa katungkulang saserdote.

42 At iyong igagawa sila ng mga salawal na lino, upang takpan ang laman ng kanilang kahubaran; mula sa mga balakang hanggang sa mga hita aabot.

43 At isusuot ni Aaron at ng kaniyang mga anak, pagka sila'y pumapasok sa tabernakulo ng kapisanan, o pagka sila'y lumalapit sa dambana upang mangasiwa sa dakong banal; upang sila'y huwag magdala ng kasamaan, at huwag mamatay: magiging isang palatuntunang walang hanggan sa kaniya at sa kaniyang binhi pagkamatay niya.

Apocalypse Explained #167

Проучи го овој пасус

  
/ 1232  
  

167. And all [the churches] shall know that I am he who searcheth the reins and hearts. That this signifies the acknowledgment, on the part of all those who belong to the church, that the Lord alone knows and explores the exteriors and interiors and the things pertaining to faith and love is evident from the signification of searching, when said of the Lord, as being that He alone knows and explores; and from the signification of the reins, as being the truths of faith, and their purification from falsities, concerning which we shall speak in what follows; and from the signification of hearts, as being the goods of love. The reason why the heart signifies the good of love is, that there are two things that reign in man, from which all the life of his body is derived - the heart and the lungs. And because all things in a man's body correspond to all the things in his mind, and there are also two things that reign there, the will and the understanding, therefore these two kingdoms of the mind correspond to the two kingdoms of the body - the will to the heart and its pulse, and the understanding to the lungs and their respiration; without this correspondence the body could not live, nor even a particle of it. Because the heart corresponds to the will, it also corresponds to the good of love; and as the lungs correspond to the understanding, they also correspond to the truths of faith. It is from this correspondence that the heart signifies love, and the soul (anima) signifies faith; hence the expression "from the heart and soul" is so often used in the Word, by which is meant from the love and faith. (This correspondence is much treated of in Arcana Coelestia, where the following particulars may be seen more fully explained, namely, that the heart in the Word signifies love, and because it signifies love, that it also signifies the will, n. 2930, 3313, 7542, 8910, 9050, 9113, 10336. That the heart corresponds to the things that pertain to man's love, and the lungs to the things that pertain to his faith, n. 3883-3896. That in heaven there is a pulse like that of the heart, and a respiration like that of the lungs, n. 3884, 3885, 3887. That the pulse of the heart there is according to the state of love, and the respiration of the lungs according to the state of faith, n. 3886-3889; that the influx of the heart into the lungs is circumstanced like the influx of good into truth, or of the will into the understanding and of love into faith, and that the communications and conjunctions are similar, n. 3884, 3887-3889, 9300, 9495. Concerning the influx of heaven into the heart and into the lungs, from experience, n. 3884. That from this correspondence in the Word, when it is said from the heart and from the soul, it signifies from the love and faith, n. 2930, 9050; that the conjunction of man's spirit with his body is by means of the respiration of the lungs and of the pulse of the heart, and that therefore when these cease, man's body dies, but his spirit lives, see the work, Heaven and Hell; and that when the pulse of the heart ceases, the spirit is separated, because the heart corresponds to love which is the vital heat, n.447, in that work. Many other things concerning that correspondence may be seen there, n. 95.) That the kidneys signify the truths of faith and the purification of them from falsities, is because the purification of the blood is performed in the kidneys; and by blood in the Word is signified truth, as may be seen, Arcana Coelestia. n. 4735, 9127. The same also is signified by the organ which purifies: also all purification from falsities is effected by means of truths.

It is therefore evident that by Jehovah, or the Lord, in the Word, searching the heart and reins is signified that He explores the goods of love and the truths of faith, and separates them from evils and falsities.

[2] This is signified by reins in the following places: in Jeremiah,

"Jehovah Zebaoth, judge of justice, proving the reins and the heart" (11:20).

Again:

"Thou hast planted them, yea, they have taken root: they grow, yea, they bring forth fruit; thou art near in their mouth and far from their reins. Jehovah, thou shalt see me, and shalt prove my heart" (12:2, 3).

By being near in the mouth, and far from the reins is meant truth only in the memory, and thence in some of his thoughts when a man speaks, but not in the will and thence in act. Truth in the will and thence in act is that which separates and dissipates falsities; truth in the will and thence in act is to will and do what a man knows and thinks to be truth; this truth is what is specifically meant by reins.

[3] Again in the same prophet:

"I Jehovah search the heart, and prove the reins, even to give every one according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his works" (17:10).

To search the heart is to purify good by separating evil from it; to prove the reins, is to purify truth by separating falsity from it. It is therefore said, "To give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his works"; ways denote the truths of faith, and the fruit of works denotes the goods of love. (That ways denote truths of faith, may be seen above, n. 97, and that the fruit of works denotes the goods of love, n. 98, 109, 116.)

[4] In the same:

"Jehovah Zebaoth, proving the just, seeing the reins and the heart" (20:12).

And in David:

"Establish the just for thou who triest the hearts and reins art a just God" (Psalms 7:9).

The just denote those who love to do what is good and true, whose truths and goods are purified by the Lord, which is signified by His seeing and trying the reins and the hearts.

In the same:

"Prove me, O Jehovah, and try me, explore my reins and my heart" (Psalms 26:2).

Because truths are separated from falsities and goods from evils by temptations, it is therefore said, try me. In the same:

"For my heart was embittered and I am pricked in my reins. But I am foolish, and I do not know" (Psalms 73:21, 22).

The infestation of good by evil and of truth by falsity, is described by these words.

In the same:

"Behold, thou desirest truth in the reins, and in the hidden part thou makest wisdom known to me" (Psalms 51:6).

Here reins are expressed by another word in the original tongue, which involves the separation both of falsities from truths and of evils from goods. It is therefore evident that the reins signify purification and separation.

[5] In the same:

"I will bless Jehovah, who hath given me counsel; nightly, also, do my reins chastise me" (Psalms 16:7).

Nights signify the state of man when falsities rise up; the combat in such cases of truths with them is signified by "my reins chastise me." In the same:

"Even the darkness doth not make darkness before thee, but the night is light as the day; as the darkness so is the light; for thou possessest my reins, my bone was not hid from thee when I was made in secret" (Psalms 139:12, 13, 15).

Falsities are signified by darkness and truths by light; to possess the reins, is to know the falsities and truths pertaining to man; hence it is said, "my bone was not hid from thee when I was made in secret," which signifies that no falsity that was made could be bid. (That darkness denotes falsities and light truths may be seen in the work, Heaven and Hell 126-140 and that bone signifies truth in the ultimate of order, and, in the opposite sense, falsity, in Arcana Coelestia 3812, 5560, 5565, 6592, 8005.)

[6] Because the reins signified truths purified from falsities, therefore in the sacrifices the fats and reins were alone offered up, as may be seen in Exodus 29:13; Leviticus 3:4, 10, 15; 4:9; and other places.

The reason why the fats and reins alone were offered upon the altar was, because the fats signified the goods of love, and the reins the truths of faith. (That fats or fatnesses signify the goods of love, may be seen, Arcana Coelestia 353, 5943, 6409, 10033. That the reins signify the truths of faith examining, purifying, and rejecting from themselves falsities is from correspondence; for all parts of the body, even the most minute, have a correspondence, as may be seen in the work, Heaven and Hell, where it is shown, under its proper article, that "there is a correspondence of all things of heaven with all things of man," n. 87-102; and concerning the kidneys, n.96, 97.) Unless it be known that there is such a correspondence, who could know why it is so often stated of Jehovah, or the Lord, in the Word, that He searches and tries the reins and the heart? (Concerning the correspondence of the kidneys, the ureters, and vesicles, see Arcana Coelestia 5380-5386.) The reason why to search the reins and the heart also signifies to explore the exteriors and interiors of man is, that truth is without, and good is within; and spiritual good, which in its essence is truth, and which is specifically signified by the reins, is exterior good: but celestial good, which is specifically signified by the heart, is interior good. (This is more evident from what is said and shown concerning, the spiritual kingdom and the celestial kingdom in the work, Heaven and Hell 20-26.)
