1 Y ESTO es lo que les harás para consagrarlos, para que sean mis sacerdotes: Toma un becerro de la vacada, y dos carneros sin tacha;

2 Y panes sin levadura, y tortas sin levadura amasadas con aceite, y hojaldres sin levadura untadas con aceite; las cuales cosas harás de flor de harina de trigo:

3 Y las pondrás en un canastillo, y en el canastillo las ofrecerás, con el becerro y los dos carneros.

4 Y harás llegar á Aarón y á sus hijos á la puerta del tabernáculo del testimonio, y los lavarás con agua.

5 Y tomarás las vestiduras, y vestirás á Aarón la túnica y el manto del ephod, y el ephod, y el racional, y le ceñirás con el cinto del ephod;

6 Y pondrás la mitra sobre su cabeza, y sobre la mitra pondrás la diadema santa.

7 Y tomarás el aceite de la unción, y derramarás sobre su cabeza, y le ungirás.

8 Y harás llegar sus hijos, y les vestirás las túnicas.

9 Y les ceñirás el cinto, á Aarón y á sus hijos, y les atarás los chapeos (tiaras), y tendrán el sacerdocio por fuero perpetuo: y henchirás las manos de Aarón y de sus hijos.

10 Y harás llegar el becerro delante del tabernáculo del testimonio, y Aarón y sus hijos pondrán sus manos sobre la cabeza del becerro.

11 Y matarás el becerro delante de Jehová á la puerta del tabernáculo del testimonio.

12 Y tomarás de la sangre del becerro, y pondrás sobre los cuernos del altar con tu dedo, y derramarás toda la demás sangre al pie del altar.

13 Tomarás también todo el sebo que cubre los intestinos, y el redaño de sobre el hígado, y los dos riñones, y el sebo que está sobre ellos, y los quemarás sobre el altar.

14 Empero consumirás á fuego fuera del campo la carne del becerro, y su pellejo, y su estiércol: es expiación.

15 Asimismo tomarás el un carnero, y Aarón y sus hijos pondrán sus manos sobre la cabeza del carnero.

16 Y matarás el carnero, y tomarás su sangre, y rociarás sobre el altar alrededor.

17 Y cortarás el carnero en pedazos, y lavarás sus intestinos y sus piernas, y las pondrás sobre sus trozos y sobre su cabeza.

18 Y quemarás todo el carnero sobre el altar: es holocausto á Jehová, olor grato, es ofrenda quemada á Jehová.

19 Tomarás luego el otro carnero, y Aarón y sus hijos pondrán sus manos sobre la cabeza del carnero:

20 Y matarás el carnero, y tomarás de su sangre, y pondrás sobre la ternilla de la oreja derecha de Aarón, y sobre la ternilla de las orejas de sus hijos, y sobre el dedo pulgar de las manos derechas de ellos, y sobre el dedo pulgar de los pies derechos de e

21 Y tomarás de la sangre que hay sobre el altar, y del aceite de la unción, y esparcirás sobre Aarón, y sobre sus vestiduras, y sobre sus hijos, y sobre las vestimentas de éstos; y él será santificado, y sus vestiduras, y sus hijos, y las vestimentas de sus

22 Luego tomarás del carnero el sebo, y la cola, y el sebo que cubre los intestinos, y el redaño del hígado, y los dos riñones, y el sebo que está sobre ellos, y la espaldilla derecha; porque es carnero de consagraciones:

23 También una torta de pan, y una hojaldre amasada con aceite, y una lasaña del canastillo de los ázimos presentado á Jehová;

24 Y lo has de poner todo en las manos de Aarón, y en las manos de sus hijos; y lo mecerás agitándolo delante de Jehová.

25 Después lo tomarás de sus manos, y lo harás arder sobre el altar en holocausto, por olor agradable delante de Jehová. Es ofrenda encendida á Jehová.

26 Y tomarás el pecho del carnero de las consagraciones, que fue inmolado para la de Aarón, y lo mecerás por ofrenda agitada delante de Jehová; y será porción tuya.

27 Y apartarás el pecho de la ofrenda mecida, y la espaldilla de la santificación, lo que fue mecido y lo que fue santificado del carnero de las consagraciones de Aarón y de sus hijos:

28 Y será para Aarón y para sus hijos por estatuto perpetuo de los hijos de Israel, porque es porción elevada; y será tomada de los hijos de Israel de sus sacrificios pacíficos, porción de ellos elevada en ofrenda á Jehová.

29 Y las vestimentas santas, que son de Aarón, serán de sus hijos después de él, para ser ungidos con ellas, y para ser con ellas consagrados.

30 Por siete días las vestirá el sacerdote de sus hijos, que en su lugar viniere al tabernáculo del testimonio á servir en el santuario.

31 Y tomarás el carnero de las consagraciones, y cocerás su carne en el lugar del santuario.

32 Y Aarón y sus hijos comerán la carne del carnero, y el pan que está en el canastillo, á la puerta del tabernáculo del testimonio.

33 Y comerán aquellas cosas con las cuales se hizo expiación, para henchir sus manos para ser santificados: mas el extranjero no comerá, porque es cosa santa.

34 Y si sobrare algo de la carne de las consagraciones y del pan hasta la mañana, quemarás al fuego lo que hubiere sobrado: no se comerá, porque es cosa santa.

35 Así pues harás á Aarón y á sus hijos, conforme á todas las cosas que yo te he mandado: por siete días los consagrarás.

36 Y sacrificarás el becerro de la expiación en cada día para las expiaciones; y purificarás el altar en habiendo hecho expiación por él, y lo ungirás para santificarlo.

37 Por siete días expiarás el altar, y lo santificarás, y será un altar santísimo: cualquiera cosa que tocare al altar, será santificada.

38 Y esto es lo que ofrecerás sobre el altar: dos corderos de un año cada día, sin intermisión.

39 Ofrecerás el un cordero á la mañana, y el otro cordero ofrecerás á la caída de la tarde:

40 Además una décima parte de un epha de flor de harina amasada con la cuarta parte de un hin de aceite molido: y la libación será la cuarta parte de un hin de vino con cada cordero.

41 Y ofrecerás el otro cordero á la caída de la tarde, haciendo conforme á la ofrenda de la mañana, y conforme á su libación, en olor de suavidad; será ofrenda encendida á Jehová.

42 Esto será holocausto continuo por vuestras generaciones á la puerta del tabernáculo del testimonio delante de Jehová, en el cual me concertaré con vosotros, para hablaros allí.

43 Y allí testificaré de mí á los hijos de Israel, y el lugar será santificado con mi gloria.

44 Y santificaré el tabernáculo del testimonio y el altar: santificaré asimismo á Aarón y á sus hijos, para que sean mis sacerdotes.

45 Y habitaré entre los hijos de Israel, y seré su Dios.

46 Y conocerán que yo soy Jehová su Dios, que los saqué de la tierra de Egipto, para habitar en medio de ellos: Yo Jehová su Dios.

10135. 'And you shall offer the other lamb between the evenings' means a similar removal of evils in a state of light and love in the external man. This is clear from the meaning of 'offering a lamb', or sacrificing it, as being removed from evils by means of the good of innocence from the Lord, as immediately above in 10134; and from the meaning of 'between the evenings' as in a state of light and love in the external man. In the Word 'evening' means a state involving interior things when the truths of faith are set in obscurity, and forms of the good of love are in some coldness; for angels experience different states of love and light, just as in the world different times of day - morning, midday, evening, night or twilight prior to morning, and morning again - give way to one another. When the angels experience a state of love, to them it is morning, and the Lord appears before them as the rising Sun. When they experience a state of light, to them it is midday. When however they experience a state of light set in obscurity, to them it is evening; and when after this they experience a state of love set in obscurity or some coldness, for them it is night, or rather the twilight before morning.

[2] Such states experienced by the angels follow unceasingly one after another, and serve unceasingly to make them more perfect. But those changes are not due to the Sun there, to its rising and setting, but to the state of the interiors within the angels themselves; for as with people in the world they have a desire at one time to turn towards their internal interests, at another towards their external ones. When they turn towards internal interests they experience a state of love and consequently of light in clearness, and when they turn towards external interests they experience a state of love and consequently of light set in obscurity; for what is external is such, compared with what is internal. This is the origin of the changes of state experienced by angels. The reason why they have such states and such changes is that the Sun of heaven, which in that world is the Lord, is the Divine Love itself. Therefore the heat radiating from it is the good of love, and the light from it is the truth of faith. For everything radiating from that Sun has life, unlike the things radiating from the sun in the world, which are dead.

[3] From this it becomes clear what heavenly heat is and what heavenly light is, also why it is that 'heat', 'flame', and 'fire' in the Word mean the good of love, 'light' and its 'brightness' the truth of faith, and 'the sun' the Lord Himself in respect of Divine Love.

The Lord in heaven is the Sun, see 3636, 3643, 4321(end), 5097, 7078, 7083, 7171, 7173, 8812.

The heat from it is the good of love, 3338, 3339, 3636, 3693, 4018, 5215, 6032, 6314.

The light from that Sun is Divine Truth, the source of faith, intelligence, and wisdom, see the places referred to in 9548, 9684.

From all this it now becomes clear what 'morning' and what 'evening' mean.

[4] But it should be recognized that in the present verse 'the morning' implies midday as well, and evening early morning twilight as well; for when the words 'morning and evening' are used in the Word an entire day is meant, so that 'morning' includes midday, and 'evening' night or twilight. This explains why 'the morning' in the present verse means a state of love and also of light in clearness, that is, in the internal man, and 'the evening' a state of light, as well as of love in obscurity, that is, in the external man.

[5] The fact that 'between the evenings' is not used to mean the period of time between the evening of one day and the evening of the next day, but the time between evening and morning, thus all of the night or twilight, is evident from the consideration that the continual burnt offering of a lamb was presented not only in the evening but also in the morning. From this it becomes clear that something similar is meant elsewhere by 'between the evenings', for example, where it says that the Passover should be kept between the evenings, Exodus 12:6; Numbers 9:5, 11, which is explained in yet another place by the following words,

You shall sacrifice the Passover in the evening when the sun goes down, at the fixed time of the departure from Egypt. After that you shall cook and eat it in the place which Jehovah your God will have chosen; and in the morning you shall turn 1 and go into your tents. Deuteronomy 16:6-7.

[6] The fact that 'evening' in general means a state of light shining in obscurity is clear in Jeremiah,

Arise, and let us go up into the south. Woe to us, for the day goes away, for the shadows of evening are set at an angle! Arise, and let us go up at night, and let us destroy the palaces. Jeremiah 6:4-5.

Here 'evening' and 'night' mean the last times of the Church, when all matters of faith and love have been destroyed. In Zechariah,

There will be one day, which is known to Jehovah, when around evening time there will be light. On that day living waters will go out from Jerusalem. And Jehovah will be King over all the earth. Zechariah 14:7-9.

This refers to the Lord's Coming. The end of the Church is meant by 'evening time'; 'light' is the Lord's Divine Truth. A similar example occurs in Daniel,

The holy one said to me, Up to the evening, [when it is becoming] the morning, two thousand three hundred times. Daniel 8:13-14.

5215. 'And scorched by an east wind' means full of evil desires. This is clear from the meaning of 'being scorched by an east wind' as being consumed by the fire of evil desires. For an east wind' and the east' in the genuine sense mean love to the Lord and love towards the neighbour, lot, 1250, 3249, 3708, 3762, and therefore in the contrary sense self-love and love of the world, and so cravings and evil desires since these spring from those loves. The word 'fire' is used to refer to such desires for the reason dealt with in 5071, and therefore 'being scorched' is used also.

[2] There are two sources of heat, as there are also two sources of light, the one source of heat being the sun of this world, the other source of heat being the sun of heaven, which is the Lord. It is a well known fact that the sun of this world pours out heat into its own world and onto everything there, but it is a less well known fact that the sun of heaven pours out heat into the whole of heaven. Yet this too may become an equally well known fact if one reflects merely on the heat which exists intrinsically in the human being but which has nothing in common with the heat of the world, that is, if one reflects on what is called vital heat. From this one could know that this heat is of a different nature from the world's heat. That is to say, the former is a living heat but the latter is not at all a living one; also the former, being a living one, fires a person interiorly, namely his will and understanding, imparting to him desires and loves, and affections too. This also explains why desires, loves and affections are spiritual forms of heat, and are also called such. The fact that they are forms of heat is quite evident, for heat is radiated from all parts of the bodies of live persons, even where it is intensely cold. More than that, when desires and affections, that is, when loves, increase, the body grows correspondingly warmer. This kind of heat is what is meant in the Word by 'heat', 'fire', and 'flame'; in the genuine sense celestial and spiritual love is meant, in the contrary sense bodily and earthly love. From this it becomes clear that here 'being scorched by an east wind' means being consumed by the fire of evil desires, and that when used in reference to known facts meant by 'heads' that are 'thin', facts full of evil desires are meant.

[3] 'The east wind' means the blasts of evil desires and of derivative false notions, as is clear from places in the Word where that wind is mentioned, for example, in David,

He caused an east wind to blow 1 in the heavens, and by His power He brought forth the south wind; and He caused flesh to rain onto them like the dust, winged birds like the sand of the sea. Psalms 78:26-27.

'The flesh' which that wind brought meant cravings, and 'winged birds' resulting false notions, as is evident in Numbers 11:31-35, where it is said that the name of the place where the people were struck down for eating flesh was called 'the graves of craving, for there they buried the people who had the craving'.

[4] In Ezekiel,

Behold, the vine that was planted, will it thrive? When the east wind strikes it, will it not wither completely? It will wither on the small spaces where it began to grow. Ezekiel 17:10.

And in the same prophet,

The vine has been plucked up in anger, it has been cast down onto the ground, and the east wind has dried its fruit. They have been plucked out and have withered, each rod of its strength; fire has consumed each one. For fire has gone out from a rod of its branches and has consumed its fruit, so that there is no rod of strength in it, a sceptre for dominion. Ezekiel 19:12, 14.

Here 'the east wind' stands for the blasts of evil desires. In Isaiah,

He gave thought to His rough wind, on the day of the east wind. Isaiah 17:8.

[5] In Hosea,

An east wind will come, Jehovah's wind rising up from the desert, and his spring will become dry, and his fountain dried up. It will strip his treasury of every precious vessel. Hosea 13:15.

Here also 'an east wind' stands for blasts of evil desires. Similarly in Jeremiah,

Like an east wind I will scatter them before the enemy. Jeremiah 18:17.

[6] In David,

By means of an east wind You will shatter the ships of Tarshish. Psalms 48:7.

In Isaiah,

You have forsaken Your people, the house of Jacob, because they have been filled from the east wind, and they are diviners like the Philistines. Isaiah 2:6.

In Hosea,

Ephraim feeds the wind, and pursues the east wind. All the day long he multiplies lies and devastation. Hosea 11:1.

'The wind' here stands for false notions, and 'the east wind' for evil desires. Something similar is also meant in the internal sense by 'an east wind' by means of which 'locusts were brought forth' and by means of which 'the locusts were cast into the sea', 2 Exodus 10:13, 19, and also by means of which 'the waters of the sea Suph' were divided, Exodus 14:21.

Фусноте:

1. literally, set out

2. According to Exodus 10:19 a west wind cast the locusts into the sea.
