1 Når I udskifter landet ved lodkastning, skal I yde Herren en Offerydelse, en hellig Del af Landet, 25 000 Alen lang og 20 000 Alen bred; hellig skal den være i hele sin Udstrækning.

2 Deraf skal til Helligdommen fratages et firkantet Stykke på 500 Alen til alle Sider, omgivet af en åben Plads på 50 Alen.

3 Af denne Strækning skal du afmåle et Stykke på 25000 Alens Længde og 10000 Alens Bredde; der skal Helligdommen, den højhellige, ligge.

4 Det er en hellig Gave af Landet og skal tilfalde Præsterne, som gør Tjeneste i Helligdommen, dem, som træder frem for at gøre Tjeneste for HE EN; og det skal give dem Plads til Boliger og Græsgang.

5 Et Stykke på 25000 Alens Længde og 10000 Alens Bredde skal som Grundejendom tilfalde Leviteme, som gør Tjeneste i Templet, til Byer at bo i.

6 Byens Grundejendom skal I give en Bredde af 5000 Alen og en Længde af 25000 Alen, samme Længde som den hellige Offerydelse; den skal tilhøre hele Israels Hus.

7 Og Fyrsten skal på begge Sider af den hellige Offerydelse og Byens Grundejendom have et Område langs den hellige Offerydelse og Byens Grundejendom både på Vestsiden og Østsiden af samme Længde som en af Stammelodderne fra Landets Vestgrænse til Østgrænsen;

8 det skal tilhøre ham som Grundejendom i Israel, for at mine Fyrster ikke fremtidig skal undertrykke mit Folk; men det øvrige Land skal gives Israels Hus, Stamme for Stamme.

9 siger den Herre HE EN: Lad det nu være nok, I Israels Fyrster! Afskaf Vold og Undertrykkelse, gør et og Skel og hør op med eders Overgreb mod mit Folk, lyder det fra den Herre HE EN.

10 Vægt, som vejer rigtigt, Efa og Bat, som holder Mål, skal I have.

11 Efa og Bat skal have ens Mål, så at en Bat holder en Tiendedel Homer, og en Efa ligeledes en Tiendedel Homer; efter en Homer skal Målet fastslås.

12 En Sekel skal holde tyve Gera; fem Sekel skal være fem, ti Sekel ti, og til halvtredsindstyve Sekel skal l regne en Mine.

13 Dette er den offerydelse, I skal yde: En Sjetedel Efa af hver Homer Hvede og en Sjetedel Efa af hver Homer Byg.

14 Den fastsatte Ydelse af Olien: En Tiendedel Bat af hver Kor, ti Bat udgør jo en Kor;

15 et Lam fra Småkvæget af hver 200 som Offerydelse fra alle Israels Slægter til Afgrødeofre, Brændofre og Takofre for at skaffe eder Soning, lyder det fra den Herre HE EN

16 Alt Folket i Landet skal give Fyrsten i Israel denne Offerydelse.

17 Men Fyrsten skal det påhvile at udrede Brændofrene, Afgrødeofrene og Drikofrene på Højtiderne, Nymånefesterne og Sabbaterne, alle Israels Huses Fester; han skal sørge for Syndofrene, Afgrødeofrene, Brændofrene og Takofrene for at skaffe Israels Hus Soning.

18 siger den Herre HE EN: På den første Dag i den første Måned skal I fage EN lydefri ung Tyr og rense Helligdommen for Synd.

19 Præsten skal tage noget af Syndofferets Blod og stryge det på Templets Dørstolper, Alterfremspringets fire Hjørner og Dørstolperne til den indre Forgårds Port.

20 Det samme skal han gøre på den første Dag i den syvende Måned for deres Skyld, som har fejlet af Vanvare eller Uvidenhed, og således skaffe Templet Soning.

21 På den fjortende Dag i den første Måned skal I fejre Påskefesten: syv Dage skal I spise usyret Brød;

22 og Fyrsten skal på den Dag for sig selv og for alt Folket i Landet ofre en Tyr som Syndoffer;

23 på de syv Festdage skal han som Brændoffer for HE EN ofre syv Tyre og syv Vædre, lydefri Dyr, på hver af de syv Dage, og ligeledes daglig som Syndoffer en Gedebuk;

24 og som Afgrødeoffer skal han ofre en Efa med Tyren og ligeledes een med Væderen, desuden en Hin Olie med Efaen.

25 På den femtende Dag i den syvende Måned skal han på Festen ofre lige så meget som Syndoffer, Brændoffer, Afgrødeoffer og lige så megen Olie; det skal han gøre syv Dage.

Apocalypse Revealed#945

945. 22:8 Now I, John, saw and heard these things. And when I heard and saw, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel who showed me these things. This means that John supposed that the angel sent to him by the Lord to keep him in a state of the spirit was the God who revealed these things, when in fact that was not the case, as the angel only showed him what the Lord presented.

Clearly John supposed that the angel sent to him was the Lord Himself, for we are told that he fell down to worship before the angel's feet. But that it was not as he supposed is apparent from the next verse, in which the angel tells him that he is his fellow servant: "Worship God." That the angel was sent to John by the Lord is apparent from verse 16, which says, "I, Jesus, have sent My angel to testify to you these things in the churches."

But behind this lies the following secret: The Lord sent the angel to John in order to keep him in a state of the spirit and to show him in that state the visions he saw. For whatever John saw, he saw not with the eyes of his body, but with the eyes of his spirit, as can be seen from the passages in which he says that he was in the spirit and seeing a vision (Revelation 1:10; 9:17; 17:3; 21:10), thus everywhere that he says "he saw." And a person can enter that state and be kept in it only by angels who are closely attached to the person, who induce their own spiritual state on the interiors of his mind. For this raises the person into the light of heaven, and in that light he sees sights in heaven and not in the world.

[2] Ezekiel, Zechariah, Daniel, and other prophets were at times in the same state, but not when they spoke the Word. When they spoke the Word they were not in the spirit, but conscious in the body, and the words they wrote they heard from Jehovah Himself, that is, from the Lord.

These two states experienced by the prophets must be properly distinguished. The prophets themselves also properly distinguished them, for they everywhere say when they wrote the Word from Jehovah that Jehovah spoke with them and to them, and most often, "Thus says Jehovah," or "the word of Jehovah." However, when they were in the other state, they say that they were in the spirit or seeing in a vision, as can be seen from the following: (Ezekiel said,) "The spirit lifted me up and brought me in a vision... of God into Chaldea, to those in captivity. So the vision that I saw went up upon me." (Ezekiel 11:1, 24)

Ezekiel says that the spirit lifted him up and that he heard behind him an earthquake, among other things (Ezekiel 3:12, 14). Also that the spirit lifted him up between earth and heaven, and brought him in visions of God to Jerusalem, where he saw abominations (Ezekiel 8:3ff.). Therefore he was also seeing in a vision of God or in the spirit when he saw four living creatures, which were cherubim (Ezekiel 1 and 10). And when he saw a new temple and a new land, and an angel measuring them (Ezekiel 40; 41; 42; 43; 44; 45; 46; 47; 48). He says that he was then seeing in the visions of God (Ezekiel 40:2), and that the spirit lifted him up (Ezekiel 43:5).

[3] It was the same with Zechariah, who had an angel with him at the time when he saw a man riding among the myrtle trees (Zechariah 1:8ff.). When he saw the four horns, and then the man with a measuring line in his hand (Zechariah 1:18; 2:1ff.). When he saw Joshua, the high priest (Zechariah 3:1ff.). When he saw the lampstand and two olive trees (Zechariah 4:1ff.). When he saw the flying scroll and the ephah (Zechariah 5:1, 6). And when he saw the four chariots and their horses coming from between two mountains (Zechariah 6:1ff.).

Daniel was in the same state when he saw four beasts coming up from the sea (Daniel 7:1ff.), and when he saw the combat of the ram and the male goat (Daniel 8:1ff.). That he saw these sights in visions is said in Daniel 7:1-2, 7, 13; 8:2; 10:1, 7-8. Moreover, that he saw the angel Gabriel and spoke with him in a vision (Daniel 9:21).

It was the same with John when he saw the sights he described, as when he saw the Son of Man in the midst of the seven lampstands; when he saw the tabernacle, 1 the temple, 2 the ark, 3 and the altar 4 in heaven; the dragon and its combat with Michael; 5 the beasts; 6 the woman sitting on the scarlet beast; 7 the new heaven and new earth, and the holy Jerusalem with its wall, gates, and foundations; 8 and more.

These sights were revealed by the Lord, but shown by an angel.
