1 HE EN talede fremdeles til Moses og sagde:

2 Når nogen forsynder sig og gør sig skyldig i Svig mod HE EN, idet han frakender sin Næste etten til noget, der var ham betroet, et Håndpant eller noget, han har røvet, eller han aftvinger sin Næste noget,

3 eller han finder noget, som er tabt, og nægter det, eller han aflægger falsk Ed angående en af alle de Ting, som Mennesket forsynder sig ved at gøre,

4 så skal han, når han har forsyndet sig og føler sig skyldig, tilbagegive det, han har røvet, eller det, han har aftvunget, eller det, som var ham betroet, eller det tabte, som han har fundet,

5 eller alt det, hvorom han har aflagt falsk Ed; han skal erstatte det med dets fulde Værdi med Tillæg af en Femtedel. Han skal give den retmæssige Ejer det, den Dag han gør Bod.

6 Og til Bod skal han af Småkvæget bringe HE EN en lydefri Væder, der er taget god; som Skyldoffer skal han bringe den til Præsten.

7 Da skal Præsten skaffe ham Soning for HE ENs Åsyn, så han finder Tilgivelse for enhver Ting, hvorved man pådrager sig Skyld.

8 HE EN taled fremdeles til Moses og sagde:

9 Giv Aron og hans Sønner dette Bud: Dette er Loven om Brændofferet. Brændofferet skal blive liggende på sit Bål på Alteret Natten over til næste Morgen, og Alterilden skal holdes ved lige dermed.

10 Så skal Præsten iføre sig sin Linnedklædning, og Linnedbenklæder skal han iføre sig over sin Blusel, og han skal borttage Asken, som bliver tilbage, når Ilden fortærer Brændofferet på Alteret, og lægge den ved Siden af Alteret.

11 Derefter skal han afføre sig sine Klæder og tage andre Klæder på og bringe Asken uden for Lejren til et urent Sted.

12 Ilden på Alteret skal holdes ved lige dermed, den må ikke gå ud: og Præsten skal hver Morgen tænde ny Brændestykker på Alteret og lægge Brændofferet til ette derpå og så bringe Takofrenes Fedtdele som øgoffer derpå.

13 En stadig Ild skal holdes ved lige på Alteret, den må ikke gå ud.

14 Dette er Loven om Afgrødeofferet: Arons Sønner skal frembære det for HE ENs Åsyn, hen til Alteret.

15 Så skal han tage en Håndfuld af Afgrødeofferets Mel og Olie og al øgelsen, der følger med Afgrødeofferet, det, der skal ofres deraf, og bringe det som øgoffer på Alteret til en liflig Duft for HE EN.

16 Men esten deraf skal Aron og hans Sønner spise; usyret skal det spises på et helligt Sted; i Åbenbaringsteltets Forgård skal de spise det.

17 Det må ikke bages syret. Jeg har givet dem det som deres Del af mine Ildofre; det er højhelligt ligesom Syndofferet og Skyldofferet.

18 Alle af Mandkøn blandt Arons Sønnerspise det; denne Del af HE ENs Ildofre skal være en evig gyldig ettighed, de har Krav på fra Slægt til Slægt. Enhver, som rører derved, bliver hellig.

19 HE EN talede fremdeles til Moses og sagde:

20 Dette er den Offergave, Aron og hans Sønner skal frembære for HE EN: En Tiendedel Efa fint Hvedemel, et dagligt Afgrødeoffer, Halvdelen om Morgenen og Halvdelen om Aftenen.

21 Det skal tilberedes på Plade med Olie, og du skal frembære det godt æltet, og du skal bryde det i Stykker; et Afgrødeoffer, som er brudt i Stykker, skal du frembære til en liflig Duft for HE EN.

22 Den Præst iblandt hans Sønner, der salves i hans Sted, skal ofre det; det skal være en evig gyldig ettighed for HE EN, og som Heloffer skal det ofres.

23 Ethvert Afgrødeoffer fra en Præst skal være et Heloffer; det må ikke spises.

24 HE EN talede fremdeles til Moses og sagde:

25 Tal til Aron og hans Sønner og sig: Dette er Loven om Syndofferet. Der, hvor Brændofferet slagtes. skal Syndofferet slagtes for HE ENs Åsyn; det er højhelligt.

26 Den Præst, der frembærer Syndofferet, skal spise det; det skal spises på et helligt Sted, i Åbenbaringsteltets Forgård.

27 Enhver, som rører ved Kødet deraf, bliver hellig. Hvis noget af dets Blod stænkes på en Klædning, skal det Stykke, Blodet er stænket på, tvættes på et helligt Sted.

28 Det Lerkar, det koges i, skal slås i Stykker; og hvis det er kogt i et Kobberkar, skal dette skures og skylles med Vand.

29 Alle af Mandkøn blandt Præsterne må spise det; det er højhelligt.

30 Men intet Syndoffer må spises, når noget af dets Blod bringes ind i Åbenbaringsteltet for at skaffe Soning i Helligdommen; det skal opbrændes.

Arcana Coelestia#9993

9993. 'And unleavened cakes mixed with oil' means purification of the mid-celestial. This is clear from the meaning of 'cakes' as the mid-celestial, dealt with below; and from the meaning of 'oil' as the good of love, dealt with in 886, 4582, 4638. From this it is evident that 'cakes mixed with oil' means the celestial that springs directly from the inmost part, for 'oil' is the good of love, which is inmost. The situation is that the heavens are divided into two kingdoms, one of which is called spiritual, the other celestial. The understanding part of the human mind corresponds to the spiritual kingdom in the heavens and the will part of it to the celestial kingdom there, 9835. In each kingdom there is an internal part and an external, as there is also in the human understanding and will. For the human understanding has an internal part and an external, and so does the human will. The internal part of the understanding forms the spiritual life of the internal man, and the external part of the understanding forms the spiritual life of the external man. But the internal part of the will forms the celestial life of the internal man, while the external part of the will forms the celestial life of the external man. The existence in the human mind of an internal part and an external may be recognized by anyone who stops to reflect. It may be recognized in particular in hypocrites, cheats, crafty types, and villains. What all these think deep within themselves is contrary to the truths of faith, and also what they will is the opposite of the good deeds of heavenly love; but on the surface their thought and will are in line with those truths and good deeds, which they also consequently declare and perform for all the world to see.

[2] In addition it should be recognized that each kingdom in the heavens, the spiritual kingdom and the celestial, has three parts; each has an inmost part, a middle, and an outward, see 9873. The inmost part of the celestial kingdom consists in the good of love to the Lord; the middle part there consists in the good of mutual love, which is good emanating from that of love to the Lord; and the outward part consists in delight emanating from the good of mutual love. The first two reside in the internal man of inhabitants of the Lord's celestial kingdom, whereas the third resides in their external man. These three were represented by unleavened bread, unleavened cakes mixed with oil, and unleavened wafers anointed with oil; and purification of them is represented by the offering of the three on the altar together with a burnt offering or else a sacrifice. The fact that those kinds of good in their proper order are meant can be recognized solely from the consideration that these three types of cereal offering were commanded and also their preparation described in the Books of Moses. This would never at all have been done if those things had not embodied arcana of heaven and the Church. What other use could such things have had?

[3] But I realize that those arcana are intelligible to scarcely anyone at the present day, because what is worldly permeates everything that people understand and will at the present day, and those who think of heaven and wish to be there do not have, and do not wish to have any other notion of it apart from a natural and earthly one. And where that kind of notion and wish exist, thus where that kind of love is present, there is no room for the mysteries of heaven. It would be altogether different if the human mind delighted in heavenly more than in worldly things. For the things which a person delights in are the ones he finds intelligible, as for instance when he delights in the intricacies of countries' public affairs, or in the intricacies of people's moral attitudes. By moral attitudes is meant what constitutes their loves and affections, and consequently their thoughts. Such are easily discovered by a crafty person, because he takes delight in leading others by means of those he discovers, to the end that he may acquire important positions or monetary gain, or earn reputation on account of these.

[4] That which is celestial in the internal man is meant by 'cakes', the reason being that they are second in order; for first in order is the unleavened bread, second the cakes mixed with oil, and third the wafers anointed with oil. These three were called minchahs, and they were offered on the altar along with burnt offerings and sacrifices. How they were to be made is described in Leviticus 2, and how they were to be offered is described in various places, how for example they were to be offered by Aaron on the day of his anointing in Leviticus 6:20-23.

[5] The term 'cakes' is also used in the Word to mean the good of love in general. So it is that the loaves of the Presence or the showbread are called 'cakes' in Moses,

You shall take fine flour and bake it into twelve cakes, two-tenths [of an ephah] shall there be in one cake. And you shall place them on the table before Jehovah. And you shall put pure frankincense on each row. Leviticus 24:5-9.

'Pure frankincense' that was put on the cakes was a sign of truth springing from celestial good, which is the lowest or outermost of the celestial kingdom.

[6] The good of love in general is again meant by 'cakes' in Jeremiah,

The sons gather pieces of wood, and the fathers kindle fire, the women knead dough to make cakes for Melecheth 1 of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings to other gods. Jeremiah 7:18; 44:19.

'Making cakes for Melecheth of heaven' means offering worship to the devil with the good of celestial love, and 'pouring out drink offerings to other gods' means offering worship to Satan with the truths of faith. For 'Melecheth of heaven' means those who are in the hell of genii, and 'other gods' those who are in the hell of evil spirits, about whom see 5977, 8593, 8622, 8625. Those in the hell of genii taken all together are called the devil, and those in the hell of evil spirits are called Satan.

[7] The good of spiritual love however is meant by 'cakes' in Hosea,

Ephraim has become a cake not turned. Hosea 7:8.

But here 'a cake' is expressed by a different word in the original language, which means the good of spiritual love. 'A cake not turned' is a situation in which the external man rules the internal. When this situation comes about in a person it is an inversion of order, for then the external is the master and the internal the servant. 'Ephraim' is the Church's power of understanding, which receives light and is stirred with affection when truths and forms of the good of faith are accepted, 3969, 5354, 6222, 6234, 6238, 6267.
