1 "Ovo je obred koji ćeš obaviti na njima da ih posvetiš za moje svećenike: Uzmi jednog junca i dva ovna bez mane;

2 onda beskvasnoga kruha, beskvasnih kolača zamiješenih u ulju i beskvasnih prevrta uljem namazanih. Napravi ih od bijeloga pšeničnog brašna.

3 Naslaži ih u košaricu i u košarici prinesi ih s juncem i oba ovna."

4 "Dovedi Arona i njegove sinove k ulazu u Šator sastanka i operi ih u vodi.

5 Zatim uzmi odijelo i obuci Arona u košulju; stavi na nj ogrtač oplećka, oplećak i naprsnik i opaši ga tkanicom oplećka.

6 Ustakni mu mitru na glavu; na mitru stavi sveti vijenac.

7 Uzmi zatim ulja za pomazanje; izlij na njegovu glavu i pomaži ga.

8 Onda dovedi njegove sinove; obuci ih u košulje;

9 opaši ih u pasove i obvij im turbane. Svećeništvo neka im pripada vječnom uredbom. Tako posveti Arona i njegove sinove!"

10 "Dovedi zatim junca pred Šator sastanka, pa neka Aron i njegovi sinovi stave ruke juncu na glavu.

11 Onda pred Jahvom, na ulazu u Šator sastanka, junca zakolji.

12 Uzmi junčeve krvi i svojim je prstom stavi na rogove žrtvenika. Ostatak krvi izlij podno žrtvenika.

13 Uzmi sav loj oko droba, privjesak na jetri i oba bubrega s lojem oko njih, pa spali na žrtveniku.

14 Meso od junca, njegovu kožu i njegovu nečist spali na vatri izvan taborišta. To je žrtva okajnica.

15 Poslije toga uzmi jednoga ovna, pa neka Aron i njegovi sinovi stave na njegovu glavu svoje ruke.

16 Onda ovna zakolji, uhvati mu krvi i zapljusni njome žrtvenik sa svih strana.

17 Isijeci zatim ovna u komade, operi mu drobinu i noge i položi ih na njegove ostale dijelove i glavu.

18 I onda cijeloga ovna spali na žrtveniku. Žrtva je to paljenica u čast Jahvi, miris ugodan, žrtva ognjena.

19 Uzmi onda drugoga ovna, pa neka Aron i njegovi sinovi stave svoje ruke ovnu na glavu.

20 Sad ovna zakolji; uzmi mu krvi i njome namaži resicu desnoga Aronova uha, resicu desnog uha njegovim sinovima, palac na njihovoj desnoj ruci pa palac na njihovoj desnoj nozi. Ostatkom krvi zapljusni žrtvenik naokolo.

21 Uzmi onda krvi što je ostala na žrtveniku i ulja za pomazanje i poškropi Arona i njegovo odijelo, njegove sinove i njihova odijela. Tako će biti posvećen on i njegovo odijelo, njegovi sinovi i odijela njegovih sinova."

22 "Poslije toga uzmi s ovna loj, pretili rep, loj oko droba, privjesak s jetre, oba bubrega i loj oko njih; desno pleće - jer je to ovan prinesen za svećeničko posvećenje -

23 zatim jedan okrugli kruh, jedan kolač na ulju i jednu prevrtu iz košarice beskvasnoga kruha što je pred Jahvom.

24 Sve to stavi na ruke Arona i njegovih sinova i prinesi žrtvu prikaznicu pred Jahvom.

25 Uzmi ih onda s njihovih ruku i spali na žrtveniku, povrh žrtve paljenice, da bude Jahvi na ugodan miris. To je paljena žrtva u čast Jahvi.

26 Zatim uzmi grudi ovna prinesena za Aronovo posvećenje i prinesi ih kao žrtvu prikaznicu pred Jahvom. Neka to bude tvoj dio.

27 Posveti grudi što su bile prinesene kao žrtva prikaznica i pleće što je bilo prineseno kao žrtva podizanica od ovna prinesena za posvećenje Arona i njegovih sinova.

28 Neka to bude pristojba Aronu i njegovim potomcima od Izraelaca za sva vremena. TÓa to je ujam koji će Izraelci davati od svojih pričesnica - ujam koji Jahvi pripada.

29 Aronova posvećena odijela neka pripadnu njegovim sinovima poslije njega da u njima budu pomazani i posvećeni.

30 Sin koji postane svećenikom mjesto njega, kad uđe u Šator sastanka da vrši službu u Svetištu, neka ih nosi sedam dana."

31 "Uzmi onda ovna za posvećenje i skuhaj njegovo meso na posvećenome mjestu.

32 Aron i njegovi sinovi neka blaguju meso od toga ovna i kruh iz košarice na ulazu u Šator sastanka.

33 Neka jedu od onoga što je poslužilo za njihovo očišćenje, da im se ruke ispune vlašću i da budu posvećeni. Nijedan svjetovnjak neka ne jede od toga jer je posvećeno.

34 Ako bi ostalo što mesa od svećeničkog posvećenja ili što od onoga kruha do ujutro, spali na vatri. Ne smije se pojesti jer je posvećeno."

35 "Točno tako učini Aronu i njegovim sinovima kako sam ti naredio. Posvećuj ih sedam dana.

36 Svakoga dana prinesi jednoga junca kao žrtvu okajnicu - za pomirenje. I prinesi žrtvu okajnicu za pomirenje oltara, zatim ga pomaži da bude posvećen.

37 Sedam dana prinosi žrtvu pomirnicu za žrtvenik i posvećuj ga. Tako će žrtvenik postati presvet, i sve što se žrtvenika dotakne bit će posvećeno."

38 "A ovo treba da prinosiš na žrtveniku: dva janjca godinu dana stara, svaki dan bez prijekida.

39 Jedno janje žrtvuj ujutro, a drugo uvečer.

40 Prinesi s prvim janjetom jednu desetinu efe bijeloga brašna zamiješena u četvrtini hina istupanog ulja i žrtvu ljevanicu od četvrtine hina vina.

41 Drugo janje prinesi u suton. S njim prinesi žrtvu prinosnicu s njezinom žrtvom ljevanicom kao i izjutra - na ugodan miris, žrtvu u čast Jahvi paljenu.

42 Neka to bude trajna žrtva paljenica od koljena do koljena - na ulazu u Šator sastanka, pred Jahvom. Tu ću se ja s tobom sastajati da ti govorim.

43 I s Izraelcima ću se tu sastajati, i moja će ih slava posvećivati.

44 Ja ću posvetiti Šator sastanka i žrtvenik; posvetit ću Arona i njegove sinove da mi služe kao svećenici.

45 Ja ću prebivati među Izraelcima i biti njihov Bog.

46 Upoznat će oni tada da sam to ja, Jahve, Bog njihov koji ih je izbavio iz zemlje egipatske da prebivam među njima - ja, Jahve, Bog njihov."

10028. 'And shall pour out all the blood at the base of the altar' means the whole of Divine Truth present on the level of sensory perception, which is the lowest level of life in a person. This is clear from the meaning of 'the blood' as Divine Truth springing from the Lord's Divine Good, dealt with just above in 10026; and from the meaning of 'the base of the altar' as the level of sensory perception, which is the lowest level of life in a person. 'The base of the altar' has this meaning because the altar was representative of the Lord's Divine Human, and therefore the base of it means that which forms the lowest level of life in the human being, and that which forms the lowest level of life in the human being is called outward sensory perception, which is what is meant here. The altar was the chief representative of the Lord's Divine Human, see 9388, 9389, 9714, 9964, 'the base', it is self-evident, being the lowest level of it. As regards this level in the human being, that it is outward sensory perception, and as regards the nature of it, see 9212, 9216, 9996.

[2] The implications of all this must be stated briefly. When a person is being purified he first of all learns the kinds of truths that someone who thinks on the sensory level can grasp; these are truths such as exist in the literal sense of the Word. Afterwards he learns more internal truths such as are gathered from the Word by those who have enlightenment; for these gather its inner meaning from various places where the literal sense there is explained. Then, once these truths are known, even more internal ones are taken in by those who have become enlightened. These even more internal truths together with the previous ones serve the Church as doctrinal teachings, the even more internal truths serving members of the internal Church, the other truths serving members of the external Church. Both groups of people, if they have led lives in accord with those truths, are raised to heaven among angels, and there they are endowed with angelic wisdom, which is the product of truths still more internal, and finally of inmost truths in the third heaven. These truths together with the previous ones in their own order terminate in the last and lowest, which belong to outward sensory perception, and exist together within them. From this it is evident that interior truths reside all together in the truths belonging to the literal sense of the Word, for the latter are the last and lowest, as has been stated. Within things that are last and lowest those which are more internal ones position themselves all in sequence, and within them they exist all together, see 9828, 9836. From this it is evident what should be understood by the whole of Divine Truth present on the level of sensory perception, meant by the requirement that all the blood was to be poured out at the base of the altar.

9836. 'Two shoulders joined together shall it have at its two ends, and it shall be joined together' means an everlasting preservation of good and truth on every side by all exertion and power through a total uniting together. This is clear from the meaning of 'shoulders' as all the force and power, dealt with in 1085, 4931-4937, though the expressions 'placing on the shoulders' and 'carrying on them', used below in reference to the two shoham stones on which the names of the sons of Israel were engraved, mean an everlasting preservation of good and truth (for all forms of good and truths in their entirety are meant by 'the names of the sons of Israel', a subject dealt with further on); from the meaning of 'joined together' as a total uniting; and from the meaning of 'the two ends', or to the right and to the left, as on every side, dealt with in 8613.

[2] The implications of all this are that the ephod, as has been shown above, represented the outermost part of the Lord's spiritual kingdom. Thus the shoulder-pieces, on which the two shoham stones with the names of the sons of Israel had been placed, represented the everlasting preservation of good and truth; and the joining together of the ephod on the shoulders, and also in front of the breast and behind the back, represented a total uniting. This helps to make clear what is meant by the details stated further on regarding the shoulder-pieces and the engravings on them, namely the everlasting preservation of the good and truth present by all exertion and power, thus the preservation of the heavens. The stones with the names of the sons of Israel had been placed on the shoulder-pieces of the ephod, which represented the outermost part of the spiritual kingdom, because all preservation is dependent on the condition of what exists on last and lowest levels. For everything within terminates and forms a base for itself there on which to rest and remain in existence. Things on last and lowest levels resemble the soles and the upper parts of the feet on which the entire body stands; they are also like the hands and arms through which the body exercises its powers. Furthermore the strength of the body is concentrated there. This also explains why the hands and arms, the soles and feet too, correspond to the last and lowest parts of heaven. The fact that power and might reside in things which are last and lowest was represented in the Ancient Church by Nazirites and the hair on their head, in which their might resided, as is evident from Samson in Judges 14-16, and also their holiness, 3301. Regarding the hair, which on those men's heads was their Naziriteship, that it corresponds to the lowest levels of good and truth, or good and truth on lowest levels, see 3301, 5247, 6437.

[3] The residing of power in last and lowest things, and also the preservation in these of more internal ones in their proper condition, are matters which may be understood by people who know what the situation is with things in the natural order which follow one another in sequence and consequently exist together with one another. Things which follow in sequence finally come together on the last and lowest level, where they exist side-by-side in the same order. This being so, the things existing together with one another, which are last and lowest, serve those following one another in sequence, which are prior and higher, as corresponding supports on which they rest and are thereby preserved.

[4] 'The shoulders' means all the force and power exerted in offering resistance, breaking, or impelling. This is clear in Ezekiel,

You push with side and shoulder, and butt with your horns all the weak sheep, until you have scattered them abroad. Ezekiel 34:21.

In the same prophet,

Egypt has been a staff of reed to the house of Israel. When they took hold of you by the hand, you were broken, and you tore open their whole shoulder. 1 Ezekiel 29:6-7.

'Tearing open the whole shoulder' stands for depriving of all the power to grasp truths, 'Egypt' being the perverted factual knowledge which causes such deprivation.

[5] In Zechariah,

They refused to listen, and turned 2 a stubborn shoulder. Zechariah 7:11.

'Turning a stubborn shoulder' stands for offering resistance. In David,

They thought a wicked deed, [but] they did not prevail; for You will set a shoulder against them. Psalms 21:11-12.

'Setting a shoulder against them' too stands for offering resistance, and so stands for power. The fact that 'shoulder' means power is evident from representatives in the next life, where those who offer resistance are seen setting an opposing shoulder.

[6] Placing onto the shoulders and carrying on them means preserving everlastingly in a state of good and truth through all exertion and power. This is clear in Isaiah,

The nations will bring your sons in their bosom, and carry your daughters on their shoulder. Isaiah 49:22.

This refers to a new Church. 'Sons' means truths, and 'daughters' forms of good; and 'carrying on the shoulder' stands for preserving them. The preservation of good in its proper condition was also represented by the action of the children of Israel, who carried their dough on their shoulder when they were going out of Egypt, Exodus 12:34; and by that of the sons of Kohath, who carried holy things 3 on their shoulder, Numbers 7:9. This explains why the Lord, who spoke by means of correspondences, said that when the lost sheep was found the owner placed it on his shoulder, rejoicing, Luke 15:5. 'The sheep that was lost and found' is good as it resides with someone who comes to his senses.

[7] Since 'carrying on the shoulder' had this meaning it is also said of those who love and preserve gold and silver that they carry them on their shoulder, Isaiah 46:7. Carrying also means holding something in its proper state or condition, see 9500. All this shows what was meant by the engraving of the names of the sons of Israel on the two shoham stones and the placement of them on the shoulder-pieces of the ephod, and by the injunction that 'Aaron shall bear (or carry) them on his two shoulders for a remembrance', verse 12. 'Carrying on the shoulder', when it has reference to subjection, means servitude, see Genesis 49:15; Psalms 81:6; Isaiah 9:4; 10:27; Matthew 23:4; Zephaniah 3:9. But when it has reference to dominion it means supreme power, Isaiah 9:6; 22:22.
