1 Ja tämä on vikauhrin sääty: se on kaikkein pyhin.

2 Siinä paikassa, kussa polttouhri teurastetaan, pitää myös teurastettaman vikauhri, ja sen veri pitää priiskotettaman alttarille ympärinsä.

3 Ja kaikki sen lihavuus pitää uhrattaman, sekä häntä että lihavuus, joka sisällykset peittää.

4 Ja ne kaksi munaskuuta sen lihavuuden kanssa, joka niiden päällä on lanteissa: ja maksan kalvon munaskuiden kanssa pitää hänen eroittaman.

5 Niin pitää papin sen polttaman alttarilla tuliuhriksi Herralle; se on vikauhri.

6 Jokainen miehenpuoli papeista pitää syömän sen; pyhässä siassa pitää se syötämän; sillä se on kaikkein pyhin.

7 Niinkuin rikosuhri on, niin pitää myös vikauhrin oleman; sillä yhtäläinen pitää heidän molempain säätynsä oleman: ja se pitää sen papin oma oleman, joka sillä sovittaa.

8 Sen papin, joka polttouhrin uhraa, pitää polttouhrin vuota oma oleman, jonka hän uhrannut on.

9 Ja kaikkinainen ruokauhri, joka pätsissä kypsetty on, ja kaikki kuin pannussa eli halstarilla valmistettu on, sen pitää papin oman oleman, joka sen uhraa.

10 Ja kaikkinainen ruokauhri, joka öljyllä sekoitettu, taikka kuiva on, sen pitää kaikkein Aaronin lasten oman oleman, yhden niinkuin toisenkin.

11 Ja tämä on kiitosuhrin sääty, joka Herralle uhrataan:

12 Jos he tahtovat tehdä ylistysuhria, niin heidän pitää uhraaman ylistysuhrin sivussa happamattomia leipiä, sekoitettuja öljyllä, ja happamattomia ohukaisia kyrsiä, voidelluita öljyllä, ja pannussa kypsetyitä sämpyläleipiä sekoitettuja öljyllä.

13 Mutta senkaltaisia uhreja pitää heidän tekemän hapanneen kyrsän päälle, heidän kiitosuhrinsa ylistysuhriksi.

14 Ja yksi kaikista niistä pitää uhrattaman Herralle ylennysuhriksi, ja sen pitää papin oman oleman, joka priiskottaa kiitosuhrin vereen.

15 Ja ylistysuhrin liha hänen kiitosuhrissansa pitää sinä päivänä syötämän, jona se uhrattu on, ja ei mitään pidä tähteeksi jätettämän huomeneksi.

16 Mutta jos joku lupauksesta taikka hyvästä tahdosta uhraa, niin se pitää sinä päivänä syötämän, jona se uhrattu on; mutta jos jotakin tähteeksi jää uhrista toiseksi päiväksi, niin pitää se myös syötämän.

17 Mutta se mikä tähteeksi jää siitä uhrin lihasta, niin se kolmantena päivänä pitää poltettaman tulessa.

18 Mutta jos joku syö kolmantena päivänä siitä uhratusta lihasta, joka on hänen kiitosuhristansa, niin ei ole hän otollinen, joka sen on uhrannut, eikä se hänelle pidä luettaman, mutta se on kauhistus; ja jokainen sielu, joka sitä syö, on vikapää pahaan tekoon.

19 Mutta se liha, joka sattuu johonkuhun saastaisuuteen, ei pidä syötämän, mutta tulessa poltettaman. Joka puhdas on, se pitää syömän lihasta.

20 Ja se sielu, joka syö kiitosuhrin lihasta, siitä mikä Hrran oma on, ja hänen saastaisuutensa on hänen päällänsä, se sielu pitää hävitettämän kansoistansa.

21 Jos joku sielu rupee johonkuhun saastaisuuteen, olkoon se saastainen ihminen eli saastainen eläin eli joku muu saastainen kauhistus, ja syö kiitosuhrin lihasta siitä mikä Herran oma on, se pitää hävitettämän kansoistansa.

22 Ja Herra puhui Mosekselle, sanoen:

23 Puhu Israelin lapsille, sanoen: ei teidän pidä mitään lihavuutta syömän härjistä, lampaista ja vuohista.

24 Raadon eli haaskan lihavuus pantakoon kaikkinaisiin tarpeisiin: mutta ei teidän pidä sitä kaiketikaan syömän.

25 Sillä joka syö lihavuutta siitä eläimestä, joka Herralle tuliuhriksi annettu on, se sielu pitää hävitettämän kansoistansa.

26 Ei teidän pidä myös verta syömän kaikissa teidän asumasioissanne, ei linnuista, eikä eläimistä.

27 Jokainen sielu, joka syö jotain verta, se pitää hävitettämän kansoistansa.

28 Ja Herra puhui Mosekselle, sanoen:

29 Puhu Israelin lapsille, sanoen: se joka Herralle kiitosuhrinsa uhraa, hänen pitää tuoman, mikä Herralle kiitosuhriksi tulee.

30 Mutta hänen pitää sen kantaman kädessänsä Herran tuliuhriksi: rinnan lihavuuden pitää hänen tuoman rinnan kanssa, että ne pitää oleman häälytysuhriksi Herralle.

31 Mutta papin pitää polttaman lihavuuden alttarilla, ja rinnan pitää Aaronin ja hänen poikainsa oleman.

32 Ja oikian lavan pitää teidän antaman papille ylennysuhriksi, teidän kiitosuhristanne.

33 Ja joka uhraa kiitosuhrin verta ja lihavuutta Aaronin pojista, hänen pitää saaman oikian lavan osaksensa.

34 Sillä häälytysrinnan ja ylennyslavan olen minä ottanut Israelin lapsilta heidän kiitosuhristansa, ja olen sen antanut papille Aaronille ja hänen pojillensa ijankaikkiseksi säädyksi, Israelin lapsilta.

35 Tämä on Aaronin ja hänen poikainsa voitelus Herran tuliuhrista, siitä päivästä, jona he Herralle papiksi annettiin.

36 Jotka Herra käski sinä päivänä, jona hän heidän voiteli, annettaa heille Israelin lapsilta, ijankaikkiseksi säädyksi heidän sukukunnissansa.

37 Ja tämä on sääty polttouhrista, ruokauhrista, rikosuhrista, vikauhrista, niin myös täytösuhrista ja kiitosuhrista.

38 Jonka Herra Mosekselle käski Sinain vuorella; sinä päivänä, jona hän käskyn antoi hänelle Israelin lasten tykö, että heidän pitää uhraaman uhrinsa Herralle Sinain korvessa.

10040. As the flesh of the bullock with its skin and dung was to be burnt with fire without the camp, it can be seen that by its “flesh” was not signified the good of love, but the evil of love, according to what was said of its flesh above (n. 10035), and of the camp just above (n. 10038). But that the eating of the flesh of the sacrifice was allowed, as can be seen from the passages which follow, was because that nation, while in worship, was in the external without the internal (see the places cited in n. 9320, 9380); and the external without the internal is not at all holy, because then there is only gesture of the body and speech of the mouth, and the heart and soul are absent. Nevertheless the external without the internal was called holy, because it represented holy internal things. Holy internal things are all things that belong to love and faith from the Lord to the Lord. As that nation was of this character, they were not allowed to eat blood and fat, because by “blood” was signified the Divine truth which is of faith, and by “fat” the Divine good which is of love, both from the Lord (see above, n. 10033); but they were allowed to eat the flesh of the sacrifice, because it signified what is man’s own (n. 10035), and the own of that nation was to worship external things as holy, and to make no account whatever of internal things; which worship, except as a representative that was holy, was idolatrous (n. 4281, 4311). Moreover, representatively “flesh” is nothing else, seeing that its blood represented Divine truth and its fat Divine good (n. 10033), for in this case the flesh represented something without life and soul, which is called dead, as is the external without the internal, according to these words in Moses:

Thou shalt not eat the blood, for the blood is the soul; thou shalt not eat the soul with the flesh (Deuteronomy 12:23).

[2] Worship is nearly similar with the Gentile people of the Catholic religion, as it is called, namely, external without internal; for it is not granted to the common people to know the internal things of the Word, seeing that they are not allowed to read the Word. For this reason also it has of the Lord’s Divine Providence come to pass that in the Holy Supper the bread is given, which is “the flesh;” and not the wine, which is “the blood;” and yet the blood is what gives life to the flesh, as the wine does to the bread. For as bread without wine does not give nourishment to the body, so neither does the good of love, which is signified by “bread” and by “flesh,” without the truth of faith, which is signified by “wine” and by “blood,” give nourishment to the soul. By the Divine Providence of the Lord it has also come to pass that the priest should drink up the wine, because by this is signified the nourishment of the soul by Divine truth without the good of love, which is a holy external without a holy internal. That this has come to pass by the Divine Providence of the Lord they do not know, because they idolatrously adore external things, and thus do not apprehend internal ones; and therefore if they had acted differently they would have profaned holy things just like the Jews. By drinking wine alone, is also signified alone to know Divine truth, and not the common people, except insofar and in such a way as the priests wish, as also is the case there. (That in the Holy Supper the flesh and the bread denote the Divine good of the Lord’s Divine love toward the human race, and the reciprocal love of man to the Lord; and that the blood and the wine denote the Divine truth that proceeds from the Lord’s Divine good, thus the truth of faith from the Lord to the Lord, see n. 3464, 3813, 4211, 4217, 4735, 4976, 6135, 6377, 6789, 7850, 9127) As regards the flesh of the sacrifices, when it was to be brought forth out of the camp, and burned with fire, see Leviticus 4:11-12, 21; and when and by whom it was to be eaten, Leviticus 6:19 end; 7:6, 15-19 19:5-6; Deuteronomy 12:7, 17-18, 27; 26:6-7.

4545. And purify yourselves, and change your garments. That this signifies that holiness was to be put on, is evident from the signification of “to be purified” or “cleansed,” as being to be sanctified (of which in what follows); and from the signification of “changing the garments,” as being to put on, here to put on holy truths; for in the internal sense of the Word by “garments” are signified truths. It is very evident that to change the garments was a representative received in the church, but what it represented no one can know unless he knows what garments signify in the internal sense (see n. 2576). As the subject here treated of is the rejection of falsities and the disposition of truths by good in the natural, mention is made of the fact that they were commanded by Jacob to change their garments.

[2] That to change the garments was a representative that holy truths were to be put on, may be seen also from other passages in the Word, as in Isaiah:

Awake, awake, O Jerusalem, put on thy strength, O Zion, put on the garments of thy adornment, O Jerusalem, the holy city; for there shall not continue to come into thee any more the uncircumcised and the unclean (Isaiah 52:1);

as “Zion” is the celestial church, and “Jerusalem” the spiritual church, and as the celestial church is that which is in good from love to the Lord, and the spiritual church is that which is in truth from faith and charity, therefore “strength” is predicated of Zion, and “garments” of Jerusalem; and it is signified that thereby they were clean.

[3] In Zechariah:

Joshua was clothed with defiled garments, and stood thus before the angel; and [the angel] answered and said unto those that stood before him, saying, Remove the defiled garments from upon him; and unto him he said, See, I have caused thine iniquity to pass from upon thee by putting on thee change of garments (Zech. 3:3-4);

from this passage also it is evident that to remove the garments and to put on a change of garments, represented purification from falsities, for it is said, “I have made thine iniquity to pass from upon thee.” It was also for this reason that men had changes of garments, and they were so called (whereof occasional mention is made in the Word) because representations were thereby exhibited.

[4] As such things were represented by changes of garments, therefore where the new temple is treated of in Ezekiel, by which in the internal sense is signified a new church, it is said:

When the priests enter in, they shall not go out of the holy place to the outer court, but there they shall lay aside their garments wherein they ministered, for they are holiness, and shall put on other garments, and shall approach to those things which pertain to the people (Ezekiel 42:14).

And again:

When they go forth into the outer court to the people, they shall put off their garments wherein they minister, and shall lay them aside in the chambers of holiness, and they shall put on other garments, and shall sanctify the people with other garments (Ezekiel 44:19).

[5] Everyone can see that by the new temple and by the holy city and land, here described by the prophet and in the chapters which precede and follow, is not meant any new temple, nor a new city and a new land, for mention is made of sacrifices and rituals as to be instituted anew which nevertheless were to be abrogated; and mention is also made by name of the tribes of Israel dividing the land into inheritances among themselves, which nevertheless have been dispersed and have never returned. Hence it is evident that by the rituals there mentioned are signified spiritual and celestial things of the church, similar to what are signified by the changes of garments when Aaron ministered, in Moses:

When he maketh a burnt offering he shall put on his clothing, and his linen breeches, the ashes he shall put beside the altar. Afterward he shall put off his garments, and shall put on other garments, and shall bring forth the ashes into a clean place outside the camp, and thus shall he make the burnt-offering (Leviticus 6:9-11).

[6] That to be cleansed denotes to be sanctified, may be seen from the cleansings which were commanded, as that they should wash their flesh and their garments, and that they should be sprinkled with the waters of separation. That no one is sanctified by such things, everyone may know who has any knowledge about the spiritual man; for what has iniquity and sin in common with the garments with which a man is clothed? And yet it is sometimes said that after they had cleansed themselves, they should be holy. From this it is also manifest that the rituals enjoined upon the Israelites were holy simply because they represented holy things; consequently that those who were representative did not thereby become holy as to their persons; but that the holiness abstractedly represented by them affected the spirits who were with them, and thereby the angels in heaven (n. 4307).

[7] For of necessity there must be communication of heaven with man, in order that the human race may subsist, and this by means of the church, for otherwise they would become like beasts, devoid of internal and external bonds; and thus each would rush without restraint to accomplish the destruction of others, and they would annihilate each other. And as at that time this communication was not possible by means of any church, it was therefore provided by the Lord that it should be miraculously effected by means of representatives. That sanctification was represented by the ritual of washing and cleansing, is manifest from many passages in the Word, as when Jehovah came down upon Mount Sinai, He said to Moses:

Sanctify them today and tomorrow, and let them wash their garments, and be ready against the third day (Exodus 19:10-11).

In Ezekiel:

I will sprinkle upon you clean waters, and ye shall be cleansed from all your uncleannesses, and I will cleanse you from all your idols, and I will give you a new heart, and I will put a new spirit in the midst of you (Ezekiel 36:25-26); where it is manifest that “sprinkling clean waters” represented the purification of the heart; thus that “to be cleansed” is to be sanctified.
