1 И упрекали Маріамъ и Ааронъ Моисея за жену Еѕіоплянку, которую онъ взялъ; ибо онъ взялъ за себя Еѕіоплянку;

2 и сказали: неужели только чрезъ Моисея говоритъ Господь? Неужели Онъ не говоритъ и чрезъ насъ? И услышалъ сіе Господь.

3 Моисей же былъ кротчайшій изъ всјхъ человјковъ, которые на землј.

4 И тотчасъ сказалъ Господь Моисею и Аарону и Маріами: выйдите вы трое къ скиніи собранія, и вышли всј трое.

5 И сошелъ Господь въ облачномъ столпј, и сталъ у дверей скиніи, и позвалъ Аарона и Маріамъ, и вышли они оба.

6 И сказалъ: послушайте словъ Моихъ: если бываетъ у васъ пророкъ, то Я Господь открываюсь ему въ видјніи, во снј говорю съ нимъ.

7 Но съ рабомъ Моимъ Моисеемъ не такъ; онъ вјренъ во всемъ дому Моему.

8 Устами къ устамъ говорю Я съ нимъ, и даю ему видјть не въ загадкахъ; но онъ видитъ образъ Господа: и какъ вы не убоялись упрекать раба Моего Моисея?

9 И воспламенился гнјвъ Господа на нихъ, и Онъ отошелъ.

10 И облако удалилось отъ скиніи; и се, Маріамъ покрылась проказою, какъ снјгомъ. Ааронъ взглянулъ на Маріамъ, и се, она въ проказј.

11 И сказалъ Ааронъ Моисею: господинъ мой, не поставь намъ въ грјхъ, что мы поступили глупо и согрјшили.

12 Не попусти, чтобъ она была, какъ мертвый младенецъ, у котораго, когда онъ выходитъ изъ чрева матери своей, истлјла уже половина тјла.

13 И возопилъ Моисей ко Господу, говоря: Боже, исцјли ее!

14 И сказалъ Господь Моисею: еслибы и отецъ ея плюнулъ ей въ лице, то не должна ли бы она быть въ безчестіи семь дней? Итакъ пусть будетъ она въ заключеніи семь дней внј стана, а послј опять возвратится.

15 И пробыла Маріамъ въ заключеніи внј стана семь дней, и народъ не отправлялся въ путь, пока не возвратилась Маріамь.

4759. 'For twenty pieces of silver' means the value set upon it. This is clear from the meaning of 'twenty' as the good and truth stored away by the Lord within the interior man, which are called remnants, dealt with in 2280, and so as holy good or truth. In this case holy truth is meant because the phrase 'twenty pieces of silver' is used, 'silver' meaning truth, 1551, 2954. The same number also means that which is not holy, for most things in the Word have a contrary meaning also, here truth that is not holy in the case of those who alienated Divine Truth, or 'sold Joseph', 4758, but is holy in the case of those who accepted it or 'bought him'. The meaning here therefore is that which is not holy separated from charity, but which is holy in the case of the Ishmaelites, that is, those in whom simple good is present. These are the things that are meant by the value set upon it. The reason why 'twenty' also means that which is not holy is that 'twenty' means remnants, as stated above. If people do not have any remnants of good and truth within their interior man, only evil and falsity instead, their holiness is not holiness, and depending on the kind of evil and falsity present in them it is either filthiness or else profanity.

[2] This further meaning which 'twenty' has of that which is not holy is clear in Zechariah,

I looked, and behold, a flying scroll. And he said to me, What do you see? I said to him, I see a flying scroll; its length is twenty cubits, its breadth ten cubits. And he said to me, This curse is going out over the face of the whole land. Zechariah 5:1-3.

In Haggai,

When one came to the winevat to draw fifty measures from the winevat, there were only twenty; I smote you with blight, and all the work of your hands with mildew. Haggai 2:16-17.

[3] In Ezekiel,

Your food which you eat shall be in weight twenty shekels each day; from time to time shall you eat it; and you shall eat it indeed as a barley-cake. As regards that cake, with human excrement you shall make it in their sight. For thus, Jehovah said, shall the children of Israel eat their bread unclean among the nations. Ezekiel 4:10, 12-13.

In these places 'twenty' stands for that which is unholy, unclean, and profane. The death in the wilderness of all over twenty years - a prediction recorded in Numbers 14:29; 32:11 - also represented that which was holy in the case of those under that age, and that which was not holy in the case of those over it. For all numbers in the Word mean spiritual realities, see 482, 487, 575, 647, 648, 755, 813, 1963, 1988, 2075, 2252, 3252, 4264, 4495, 4670; and remnants are good and truth stored away by the Lord within the interior man, 468, 530, 560, 561, 576, 660, 798, 1050, 1738, 1906, 2284.
