Исход 24

Estude

   

1 И Моисею сказал Он: взойди к Господу ты и Аарон, Надав и Авиуд и семьдесят из старейшин Израилевых, и поклонитесь издали;

2 Моисей один пусть приблизится к Господу, а они пусть не приближаются, и народ пусть невосходит с ним.

3 И пришел Моисей и пересказал народу все слова Господни и все законы. И отвечал весь народ в один голос, и сказали: все, что сказал Господь, сделаем.

4 И написал Моисей все слова Господни и, встав рано поутру, поставил под горою жертвенник и двенадцать камней, по числу двенадцати колен Израилевых;

5 и послал юношей из сынов Израилевых, и принесли они всесожжения,и заклали тельцов в мирную жертву Господу.

6 Моисей, взяв половину крови, влил в чаши, а другою половиною окропил жертвенник;

7 и взял книгу завета и прочитал вслух народу, и сказали они: все, что сказал Господь, сделаем и будем послушны.

8 И взял Моисей крови и окропил народ, говоря: воткровь завета, который Господь заключил с вами о всех словах сих.

9 Потом взошел Моисей и Аарон, Надав и Авиуд и семьдесят из старейшин Израилевых,

10 и видели Бога Израилева; и под ногами Его нечто подобное работе из чистого сапфира и, как самое небо, ясное.

11 И Он не простер руки Своей на избранных из сынов Израилевых: они видели Бога, и ели и пили.

12 И сказал Господь Моисею: взойди ко Мне на гору и будь там; и дам тебе скрижали каменные, и закон и заповеди, которые Я написал для научения их.

13 И встал Моисей с Иисусом, служителем своим, и пошел Моисей на гору Божию,

14 а старейшинам сказал: оставайтесь здесь, доколе мы не возвратимсяк вам; вот Аарон и Ор с вами; кто будет иметь дело, пусть приходит к ним.

15 И взошел Моисей на гору, и покрыло облако гору,

16 и слава Господня осенила гору Синай; и покрывало ее облако шесть дней, а в седьмой день Господь воззвал к Моисею из средыоблака.

17 Вид же славы Господней на вершине горы был пред глазами сынов Израилевых, как огонь поядающий.

18 Моисей вступил в средину облака и взошел на гору; и был Моисей на горе сорок дней и сорок ночей.

9399. 'And Moses took the blood, and sprinkled it over the people' means making a person well-adapted to receive it. This is clear from the meaning of 'the blood of the sacrifice' as Divine Truth emanating from the Lord, dealt with above in 9393; and from the meaning of 'sprinkling over the people' as making a person well-adapted to receive it, for 'sprinkling' means flowing into something, that is, adapting it. Divine Truth which emanates from the Lord is flowing unceasingly into a person and composing his understanding; indeed, if you are willing to believe it, without that unceasing inflow of God's truth emanating from the Lord he can see and learn nothing. For the Divine Truth emanating from the Lord is the light which enlightens the human mind and composes inner sight, which is the understanding. And since that light flows in unceasingly, it makes every person well-adapted to receive it. Those who do receive it however are people who lead a good life, whereas those who do not receive it are people who lead a bad life. Even so, the latter have the ability, just as the former do, to see and learn Divine Truth, and also to receive it to the extent that they depart from evil ways. This is what the half of the blood sprinkled over the people by Moses served to mean.

[2] Regarding Divine Truth emanating from the Lord, that it is the Light which enlightens the human mind and composes its inner sight, which is the understanding, see 2776, 3167, 3195, 3636, 3643, 3993, 4405, 5400, 8644, 8707.

This Divine Truth is also meant in John,

He was the true light which enlightens every person coming into the world. He was in the world, and the world was made by Him, but the world did not know Him. John 1:9-11.

This refers to the Word, which is Divine Truth emanating from the Lord.

[3] Every person in the world who is sound in mind has the ability to learn God's truth, and consequently has the ability to receive it to the extent that he departs from evil ways, as considerable experience has enabled me to know. For all without exception in the next life, the evil as well as the good, are able to learn what is true and what is false, also what is good and what is bad. But the evil, though they can see what truth or good is, have no wish to see it; for their will, and the evil there, finds it repugnant. When left alone to themselves therefore the evil fall back to the falsities accompanying their evil, in detestation of the truth or good they have come to see. The same applied to such people when they were in the world, where they refused to accept truths which they were able to see. From this it has been evident to me that Divine Truth emanating from the Lord flows constantly into human minds and makes them well-adapted to receive it, and that it is indeed received by people to the extent that they depart from the evil ways that go with self-love and love of the world.

Apocalypse Explained # 476

476. And make their robes white in the blood of the Lamb.- This signifies the implantation of Divine Truth from the Lord, as is evident from the signification of making their robes white, as denoting to put off falsities and to put on truths, for white, and to whiten are said in reference to truths, which are signified by robes. That white, and to whiten, are said in reference to truths, may be seen above (n. 196); and that robes signify truths in general may also be seen above (n. 395). It is said that they made their robes white, because the garments of those who are in falsities in the spiritual world appear to be dusky, and also spotted, and the garments of those who are in temptations appear squalid; but as soon as they come out of temptations, because they are then imbued with Divine Truths, they appear to be clad in garments white and shining, without blemishes, as mentioned just above; therefore by making their robes white is signified that they had put off falsities and put on truths. The blood of the Lamb, signifies the Divine Truth proceeding from the Lord; see above (n. 329); and because falsities are shaken off in temptations, and truths implanted, therefore, in general, by making their robes white in the blood of the Lamb, is signified the implantation of Divine Truth from the Lord. In the sense of the letter of the Word, the blood of the Lamb means the passion of the cross, but in the internal or spiritual sense it means the Divine Truth proceeding from the Lord; for by means of this, man is purified from falsities and evils, that is, his garments are made white.

The passion of the cross was the last temptation of the Lord, through which He completely subjugated the hells, and glorified His Human; and having fulfilled and completed these things, the Lord sent the Paraclete (Paracletum), the Spirit of Truth, by which is meant the Divine Truth proceeding from His glorified Human, as the Lord Himself teaches in John (7:39), and elsewhere. Man then is reformed and regenerated by the Lord, and saved by means of the Divine Truth when received, but not by the shedding of blood upon the cross. On this subject more may be seen in the Doctrine of the New Jerusalem 293, 294); and in the passages cited therein from the Arcana Coelestia. The same is also evident from this fact, that the garments of the angels appear to shine with a white and bright appearance, not from faith and from thought concerning the blood of the Lord [shed] upon the cross, but from the Divine Truth from the Lord with the angels. For, as stated above, all their garments accord with the truths which they have, neither is any angel allowed to think of the passion of the Lord, but of His glorification, and of the reception of the Divine from Him.
