1 Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: 'Vrata unutrašnjega predvorja, koja gledaju na istok, neka budu zatvorena šest radnih dana, a neka se otvaraju u dan subotnji; i u dan mlađaka neka se otvaraju.

2 Knez neka ulazi kroz njihov trijem i neka stane kod dovratnika; svećenici će tada prinijeti njegovu paljenicu i pričesnicu, a on će se pokloniti na pragu vrata i izaći. Neka se vrata ne zatvaraju do večeri.

3 Na ulazu istih vrata subotom i na mlađake klanjat će se Jahvi puk zemlje.

4 Paljenica koju će knez subotom prinositi Jahvi neka bude: šest jaganjaca bez mane, ovan bez mane.

5 A prinosnica neka bude efa po ovnu, a po jaganjcu koliko i kako tko može i hin ulja po efi.

6 Na dan mlađaka neka se prinese june bez mane, šest jaganjaca i ovan bez mane.

7 A za prinosnicu neka se prinese efa po junetu, efa po ovnu, a po jaganjcu koliko tko može i hin ulja po efi.

8 Kad knez bude ulazio, neka ulazi kroz trijem vrata i istim putem neka izlazi.

9 A kad puk zemlje o blagdanima dolazi pred Jahvu, onaj koji na sjeverna vrata uđe da se pokloni neka izađe na južna, a tko uđe na južna neka izađe na sjeverna: neka se ne vraća na vrata na koja je ušao, nego neka izađe na suprotna.

10 I knez neka bude s njima: kad oni ulaze, neka i on uđe i neka izađe kad oni izlaze.

11 O blagdanima i svetkovinama neka se kao prinosnica prinese efa po juncu i efa po ovnu, a po jaganjcu koliko tko može i hin ulja po efi.

12 Kad knez želi prinijeti dobrovoljnu paljenicu ili dobrovoljnu pričesnicu Jahvi, neka mu se otvore vrata koja gledaju na istok, pa neka prinese paljenicu i svoju pričesnicu kao na dan subotnji; potom neka iziđe, a kad iziđe, neka se zatvore vrata.

13 Svaki dan prinijet ćeš Jahvi za paljenicu janje od godine, bez mane; prinijet ćeš ga svako jutro.

14 A kao prinosnicu na nj prinesi svako jutro šestinu efe i trećinu hina ulja da se poškropi najfinije brašno; to neka bude svagdašnji prinos Jahvi po vječnoj uredbi.

15 Treba dakle prinijeti jagnje, prinosnicu i ulje svako jutro kao svagdašnju žrtvu paljenicu.'

16 Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: 'Dadne li knez dar komu svom sinu od svoje baštine, taj će dar pripasti njima u posjed kao baština.

17 Ako li od svoje baštine dade dar komu svom sluzi, tome će to pripadati do otpusne godine, a potom neka se vrati knezu; baština pripada samo kneževim sinovima.

18 Knez ne smije prisvojiti ništa od baštine naroda, pljačkajući narodni posjed. Sinovima svojim neka dade baštinu od svojega posjeda, da se ne raspe narod potjeran sa svojega posjeda.'"

19 Zatim me odvede kroz ulaz kraj vrata, u svećeničke prostorije Svetišta što gledaju na sjever. I gle: ondje, u dnu, prema zapadu, jedan prostor!

20 I reče mi: "Ovo je mjesto gdje će svećenici kuhati žrtve naknadnice i okajnice i žrtvu pomirnicu, gdje će peći prinosnice da ih ne iznose u vanjsko predvorje te ne posvete naroda."

21 Potom me izvede u vanjsko predvorje i provede kraj četiri ugla predvorja, i gle, u svakom uglu predvorja bijaše malo predvorje.

22 Ta mala predvorja u četiri ugla predvorja bijahu četrdeset lakata dugačka, trideset široka - sva četiri istih razmjera;

23 sva četiri zidom opasana, a pod zidom sve uokolo bijahu sagrađena ognjišta.

24 I reče mi: "To su kuhinje gdje će sluge Doma kuhati puku žrtve."

9659. 'And there shall be eight boards and their bases [made] from silver' means support in every respect from good and through truth that springs from good. This is clear from the meaning of 'eight' as what is so in every respect, dealt with below; from the meaning of 'boards' as good that lends support, dealt with in 9634; and from the meaning of 'bases [made] from silver' as support provided through truth from good, dealt with in 9643.

[2] 'Eight' means in every respect because this number has the same meaning as two and four, being the product of these when multiplied together. 'Two' and 'four' mean being joined together, completely so, 5194, 8423, 8877, and consequently also mean what is complete, 9103, and therefore what is so in every respect; for what exists in completeness does so in every respect. Another reason why 'eight' means what exists in completeness and in every respect is that since 'a week' means a whole period from beginning to end, 2044, 3845, 'the eighth day' means a complete state, from which a new beginning then commences. This explains why males had to be circumcised on the eighth day, Genesis 17:12; 21:4, for circumcision was a sign of purification from foul kinds of love by means of the truth of faith, 2039, 2046 (end), 2799, 3412, 3413, 4462. The foreskin corresponded to the defilement of good by those kinds of love, 4462, 7045, 7225, and the knife of flint with which circumcision was carried out was a sign of the truth of faith by means of which purification was accomplished, 2039 (end), 2046 (end), 2799, 7044.

[3] What exists in completeness and in every respect is also meant by 'eight' following 'seven' in Micah,

When Asshur comes into our land and treads our palaces we will set up over him seven shepherds and eight princes of men (homo), and they will feed 1 the land of Asshur with the sword; and he will deliver [us] from Asshur. Micah 5:5-6.

'Asshur' stands for reasoning on the basis of one's own intelligence about the Church's forms of good and its truths. Deliverance totally or in every respect from consequent falsity is meant by 'eight princes of men' who will bring destruction, 'princes of men' being the leading truths that rise out of good.

[4] The fact that 'eight' means completeness and in every respect is also clear from an experience I had involving the admission and reception of some communities into heaven, about which see 2130. I saw as many as twelve communities received first, and after them as many as eight more; for people admitted and received into heaven are those who have been purified from earthly things, that is, from all love of them, and have gone on to receive instruction. The number eight on that occasion was a sign of that which was complete.

[5] 'Eight' has a similar meaning elsewhere in the Word, for example where it says that the portico of the gateway was 'eight cubits' long from the house, and that there were 'eight steps' up to the house, in Ezekiel 40:9, 31, 41. The description there is of the new house, by which the Lord's New Church is meant, truths leading to good and from good back to truths being meant by 'the portico' and 'the steps'.

[6] Anyone who does not know that spiritual realities or real things are implied by the numbers used in the Word cannot possibly see any such reality nor thus anything holy in the measures and numbers where the tabernacle, Solomon's temple, and after these the new house, new temple, and new land in Ezekiel, are described, when yet not a syllable in the Word is devoid of spiritual meaning. Let all who have intelligence weigh up in their mind what the measures and numbers in Chapters 40-48 of Ezekiel really mean, also the measures and numbers in John, at Revelation 21:17, where it says that the angel measured the wall of the new Jerusalem, a hundred and forty-four cubits, and that this measure was that of a man (homo), that is, of an angel, and also in the following, besides many other places,

Let him who has intelligence reckon the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man (homo), that is, its number is six hundred and sixty-six. Revelation 13:18.

For more about all numbers in the Word, that they mean spiritual realities or real things, see 482, 487, 575, 647, 648, 755, 813, 1963, 1988, 2075, 2252, 3252, 4264, 4495, 4670, 5265, 5291, 5335, 5708, 6175, 7973, and places where the specific meaning of certain numbers has been shown.

7225. 'And I am uncircumcised in the lips' means that to them I am impure. This is clear from the meaning of 'being uncircumcised' as being impure, for circumcision represented purification from filthy kinds of love, that is, from self-love and love of the world, see 2039, 2632, 2799, 4462, 7045, and therefore those who had not been circumcised and were called 'the uncircumcised' represented those who had not been purified from those kinds of love and so were impure, 3412, 3413, 4462, 7045; and from the meaning of 'the lips' as matters of doctrine, dealt with in 1286, 1288, so that 'uncircumcised in the lips' means being impure in those things which are matters of doctrine. For the expression 'uncircumcised' is used in reference to doctrine as well as to life. The ear is therefore spoken of as being uncircumcised in Jeremiah,

On whom shall I speak and testify and they will hear? Behold, their ear is uncircumcised, and they cannot listen. Behold, the Word of Jehovah has become a reproach; they have no wish for it. Jeremiah 6:10.

And the heart is spoken of as being uncircumcised, in the same prophet, All the house of Israel is uncircumcised in heart. Jeremiah 9:26.

In Ezekiel,

You are bringing in the sons of the foreigner, uncircumcised in heart and uncircumcised in flesh, to be in My sanctuary. Ezekiel 44:7, 9.

In Moses,

At that time their uncircumcised heart will be humbled. Leviticus 26:41.

[2] From these quotations it is evident that 'uncircumcised' means impure; and since all impurity springs from the impure kinds of love, which are love of the world and self-love, 'uncircumcised' means that which hinders the inflow of goodness and truth. Where those kinds of love are present inflowing goodness and truth are annihilated, for they are contrary to one another, as heaven and hell are. Therefore 'an uncircumcised ear' means disobedience, and 'an uncircumcised heart' a rejection of goodness and truth, which takes place especially when those kinds of love have fortified themselves with falsity like a wall around them.

[3] When Moses, being a stammerer, calls himself 'uncircumcised in the lips' it is on account of the internal sense. The expression is used so as to mean that those steeped in falsities, who are represented by 'Pharaoh', are not going to listen to things that might be told them from the law of God. And the reason why is that those steeped in falsities call truths belonging to the law of God falsities, and falsities that are contrary to the truths belonging to the law of God they call truths; for they are of an utterly contrary frame of mind. This being so, they view the truths taught by doctrine as altogether impure; and heavenly kinds of love are likewise seen by them as impure. And when they approach any community in heaven they emit a dreadful stench, which they imagine, when they become aware of it, to be emanating from that heavenly community, when in fact it is coming from themselves. For they are unaware of a stench until they are alongside that which is the opposite of it.
