1 Kaj faru altaron, por fumigi incenson; el akacia ligno faru gxin.

2 Unu ulno estu gxia longo, kaj unu ulno gxia largxo; gxi estu kvarangula; kaj du ulnoj estu gxia alto; kornoj elstaru el gxi.

3 Kaj tegu gxin per pura oro, gxian supran platon kaj gxiajn flankojn cxirkauxe kaj gxiajn kornojn; kaj faru al gxi oran kronon cxirkauxe.

4 Kaj du orajn ringojn faru al gxi sub gxia krono, sur gxiaj du lateroj; sur du flankoj faru ilin; kaj ili estu ingoj por stangoj, per kiuj oni portu gxin.

5 Kaj faru la stangojn el akacia ligno, kaj tegu ilin per oro.

6 Kaj starigu gxin antaux la kurteno, kiu estas antaux la kesto de atesto, kontraux la fermoplato de la kesto de atesto, kie Mi aperados al vi.

7 Kaj Aaron incensadu sur gxi aroman incenson; cxiumatene, kiam li ordigos la lucernojn, li incensu.

8 Kaj kiam Aaron ekbruligos la lucernojn cxirkaux vespero, li incensu; gxi estu cxiama incensado antaux la Eternulo en viaj generacioj.

9 Ne alportu sur gxi incenson alian, nek bruloferon nek donoferon, kaj versxoferon ne versxu sur gxin.

10 Kaj cxiopardonan oferon Aaron alportos sur gxiaj kornoj unu fojon en la jaro; el la sango de la cxiopardona pekofero unu fojon en jaro li alportu sur gxi cxiopardonan oferon en viaj generacioj; tio estos plej granda sanktajxo antaux la Eternulo.

11 Kaj la Eternulo ekparolis al Moseo, dirante:

12 Kiam vi kalkulos la kapojn de la Izraelidoj, tiam cxiu donu liberigan pagon por sia animo al la Eternulo, kiam ili estos kalkulataj; kaj tiam ne estos inter ili epidemio dum la kalkulado.

13 Jen kion devas doni cxiu, kiu pasas la kalkulon:duonon de siklo laux la grandeco de la sankta siklo (siklo enhavas dudek gerojn); duono de siklo estu oferdono por la Eternulo.

14 CXiu, kiu pasas la kalkulon, de la agxo de dudek jaroj kaj pli, devas doni la oferdonon al la Eternulo.

15 La ricxulo ne donu pli kaj la malricxulo ne donu malpli ol duonon de siklo, donante la oferdonon por la Eternulo, por liberigi viajn animojn.

16 Kaj prenu la monon de la liberigo de la Izraelidoj kaj uzu gxin por la servado en la tabernaklo de kunveno, kaj tio estos por la Izraelidoj kiel memorigajxo antaux la Eternulo, por liberigi viajn animojn.

17 Kaj la Eternulo ekparolis al Moseo, dirante:

18 Faru kupran lavujon kun kupra piedestalo, por lavado; kaj starigu gxin inter la tabernaklo de kunveno kaj la altaro, kaj enversxu tien akvon.

19 Kaj Aaron kaj liaj filoj lavu per gxi siajn manojn kaj piedojn:

20 kiam ili iros en la tabernaklon de kunveno, ili lavu sin per akvo, por ke ili ne mortu; aux kiam ili alproksimigxos al la altaro, por servi, por incensi fajroferon al la Eternulo,

21 ili lavu siajn manojn kaj piedojn, por ke ili ne mortu; kaj tio estu por ili legxo eterna, por li kaj por lia idaro en iliaj generacioj.

22 Plue la Eternulo ekparolis al Moseo, dirante:

23 Prenu al vi plej bonajn aromajxojn:da bonodora mirho kvincent siklojn, kaj da aroma cinamo duonon de tio, ducent kvindek, kaj da aroma kano ducent kvindek,

24 kaj da kasio kvincent siklojn laux la mezuro de la sankta siklo, kaj da olivoleo unu hinon.

25 Kaj faru el tio oleon por sanktoleado, kunmetitan sxmirajxon laux la arto de la sxmirajxisto; gxi estu oleo por sanktoleado.

26 Kaj sanktoleu per gxi la tabernaklon de kunveno kaj la keston de atesto,

27 kaj la tablon kaj cxiujn gxiajn apartenajxojn, kaj la kandelabron kaj gxiajn apartenajxojn, kaj la altaron de incensado,

28 kaj la altaron de bruloferoj kaj cxiujn gxiajn apartenajxojn, kaj la lavujon kaj gxian piedestalon.

29 Kaj sanktigu ilin, ke ili farigxu plejsanktajxo; cxiu, kiu ektusxos ilin, sanktigxos.

30 Kaj Aaronon kaj liajn filojn sanktoleu, kaj sanktigu ilin, ke ili estu Miaj pastroj.

31 Kaj al la Izraelidoj diru jene:Tio estu por Mi oleo de sanktoleado en viaj generacioj.

32 Sur homan karnon gxi ne estu versxata, kaj laux gxia konsisto ne faru ion similan; gxi estas sankta, gxi estu sankta por vi.

33 Se iu konsistigos ion similan kaj sxmiros per gxi laikon, li ekstermigxu el sia popolo.

34 Kaj la Eternulo diris al Moseo:Prenu al vi aromajxon:balzamon kaj stakton kaj galbanon bonodoran kaj puran olibanon, po egalaj partoj el cxio;

35 kaj faru el tio incensajxon kunmetitan laux la arto de la sxmirajxisto, bone frotmiksitan, puran, sanktan.

36 Kaj pistu el tio subtilan pulvoron, kaj metu iom el gxi antaux la keston de atesto en la tabernaklo de kunveno, kie Mi aperados al vi; plejsanktajxo gxi estu por vi.

37 Kaj laux la incensajxo, kiun vi faros, ne faru al vi alian similan; sankta gxi estu al vi por la Eternulo.

38 Se iu faros ion similan, por odorigi per gxi, li ekstermigxos el sia popolo.

9230. 'And you shall not eat flesh torn in the field' means that falsified good of faith must not be joined [to oneself]. This is clear from the meaning of 'flesh' as good, dealt with in 7850, 9127; from the meaning of 'the field' as the Church in respect of good, thus the Church's good, dealt with in 2971, 3766, 7502, 7571, 9139, 9141; from the meaning of 'torn' as something destroyed by falsities, thus also something falsified, dealt with in 5828; and from the meaning of 'eating' as making one's own and joining [to oneself], dealt with in 2187, 3168, 3513 (end), 3596, 4745, 5643, 8001. From these meanings it is evident that 'you shall not eat flesh torn in the field' means that the Church's good, or the good of faith, if it has been falsified, is not to be made one's own or joined [to oneself].

[2] A brief statement must be made here about what the good of faith is and what the truth of faith is. The good of faith is a term that denotes everything of the Church that has to do with life and service inspired by teachings of the Church that compose its faith, in short, everything that has to do with willing those things and doing them in a spirit of obedience; for the Church's truths of faith become, through people's willing them and doing them, forms of good. But the truth of faith is a term that denotes everything which does not as yet have useful service as its end in view or does not exist for the sake of its use in life. Consequently it is something a person comes to know and retain in the memory, then grasps with his understanding, and goes on to teach. As long as the Church's truths go no further than the understanding they are merely items of knowledge and known facts, and in contrast to forms of good stand outside the person himself. For the human memory and understanding are like the hall outside a room, and the will is so to speak the actual room, the will being the person himself. This shows what the truth of faith is and what the good of faith is. But the good that a person does in the first state, while he is being regenerated, is called the good of faith, whereas the good that he does in the second state, which is when he has been regenerated, is called the good of charity. When therefore a person doing good is governed by the good of faith, he does good in a spirit of obedience; but when someone doing good is governed by the good of charity, he does good out of affection. Regarding those two states with a person who is being regenerated, see 7923, 7992, 8505, 8506, 8510, 8512, 8516, 8643, 8648, 8658, 8685, 8690, 8701, 9224, 9227.

8301. 'Who is like You among the gods, O Jehovah' means that every truth of good emanates from the Lord's Divine Human. This is clear from the meaning of 'gods' as truths, dealt with in 4402, 7268, 7873, at this point truths springing from good since comparison with Jehovah is made when it says, Who is like You among the gods, O Jehovah? 'Jehovah' in the Word means the Lord, see 1343, 1736, 2921, 3023, 3035, 5041, 5663, 6280, 6281, 6303, 6905, 6945, 6956; but at this point 'Jehovah' is used to mean the Divine Human because the theme of the song is the salvation of those belonging to the spiritual Church, accomplished through the Lord's Coming into the world, and by means of His Divine Human while He was in it, see 2661, 2716, 2833, 2834, 6372, 6854, 6914, 7035, 7091(end), 7828, 7932, 8018, 8054. The reason why the words used mean that every truth of good emanates from the Lord's Divine Human is that truths can emanate from anyone at all, but the truths of good can do so only from the Lord, consequently from those who are governed by good received from the Lord. Truths divorced from good are also contemplated and declared by those who possess faith that is mere persuasion and still lead a life of evil, as well as by many others within the Church. But those truths are not the truths of good, and so they do not emanate from the Lord but from such people themselves.

[2] The fact that truths springing from good emanate from the Lord may be recognized from the consideration that the Lord is Good itself because He is Love itself. Truth emanates from that Love just as light does from the flames of the sun. This truth is also like the light in springtime and summer, which holds warmth within itself and causes all things on the planet to come alive so to speak. But truth that does not flow from good is like the light in wintertime when all things on the planet die off. The reason why 'gods' are the truths of good is that 'gods' is used in the good sense to mean angels, who are called 'gods' because they are substances or forms receiving truth that has good from the Lord within it.

[3] Angels, and therefore the truths of good which emanate from the Lord, are also meant by 'gods' in the following places:

In David,

God places himself in the assembly of God in the midst of the gods will He judge. I said, You are gods and sons of the Most High, all of you. Psalms 82:1, 6.

Truths emanating from the Lord are what 'gods' is used to mean here. This is clear from the fact that the singular, 'in the assembly of God', is used first, and 'in the midst of the gods' afterwards. For 'God' is used in the Word where truth is referred to, see 2769, 2807, 2822, 3921, 4287, 4402, 7010; and in the highest sense 'God' is the Divine Truth emanating from the Lord, 7268.

In the same author,

I will confess You with my whole heart; before the gods I will make melody to You. Psalms 138:1.

In the same author,

There is none like You among the gods O Lord. Psalms 86:8.

In the same author,

A great God is Jehovah, and a great King above all gods. Psalms 95:3.

In the same author,

You, O Jehovah, are [high] above all the earth; You are exceedingly exalted above all gods. Psalms 97:9.

In the same author,

I know that Jehovah is great, and our Lord is above all gods. Psalms 135:5.

So it is too that Jehovah is called Lord of lords and God of gods in Deuteronomy 10:17; Joshua 22:22; Psalms 136:2.

[4] The reason why it is said so many times that Jehovah is above all gods and is God of gods is that at that time a large number of gods were worshipped. Nations were distinguished from one another according to the gods they worshipped, each nation believing that its god was the highest of all. As a result of this the idea of a large number of gods was rooted in everyone's mind, though there was disagreement over which one of them was the greatest, as becomes quite clear from many places in the historical narratives of the Word. That idea was rooted in the minds of the Jews more than others, and this explains why it says so many times in the Word that Jehovah was greater than all gods and that He was King and God of gods. The fact that this idea of a large number of gods was rooted in the minds of the Jews more than other nations becomes quite clear from their frequent apostasy, when they turned to the worship of other gods, many instances of which are recorded in the historical books of the Word, such as Judges 2:10, 13, 17, 19; 3:5-7; 8:27, 33; 10:6, 10, 13; 18:14, 17-18, 20, 24, 31; I Sam. 7:3-4; 8:8; 1 Kings 14:23-24; 16:31-33; 18:20ff; 21:26; 22:53; 2 Kings 16:1, 10ff; 17:7, 15-17; 21:3-7, 21; 23:4-5, 7-8, 10-13; and elsewhere.

[5] The mind of that nation was so unsound that with their lips they declared belief in Jehovah alone, yet in their heart acknowledged other gods. This becomes perfectly clear from the consideration that they saw so many miracles in Egypt, and in addition so many after that - the division of the sea before them and the drowning of Pharaoh's army, the pillar of cloud and fire constantly appearing, the manna raining down from heaven every day, and the actual presence of Jehovah with such great majesty and awe on Mount Sinai. And having seen such miracles they declared openly that Jehovah alone was God. Yet only weeks later, merely because Moses delayed [coming down from the mountain], they asked for molded gods which they could adore. And also after Aaron had made them those people attended them with divine worship through a feast, burnt offerings and sacrifices, and dancing. From this it becomes clear that the worship of many gods remained fixed in their hearts. The fact that this nation was like this, more than any other nation on the entire earth, is also clear in Jeremiah,

Has a nation changed its gods, and My people changed their glory for what does not profit? Be astonished, O heavens, over this, and shudder, be in great trepidation. According to the number of your cities have your gods been, O Judah. Jeremiah 2:11-12, 28.

[6] The character of that nation is also such that they adore external things, and so idols, more than all other nations do; they have no desire whatever to know about internal things. For they are the most avaricious of all nations; and avarice, which with them is such that gold or silver is loved for its own sake and not for the sake of any useful purpose, is an extremely earthly desire. It drags the mind down completely to a physical level and submerges it in it; and it closes interior levels to such an extent that no faith or love whatever from heaven can enter them. This shows how greatly mistaken those people are who believe that that nation will be chosen again, or that the Lord's Church will pass to them again after all others have been cast aside, when in fact you will convert stones to faith in the Lord before you convert them. This belief that the Church will pass to them is again due to many places in the prophetical parts of the Word which speak of their future return. But such people do not know that in those places Judah, Jacob, or Israel is not used to mean that nation, but those among whom the Church resides.
