1 Ja tämä on vikauhrin sääty: se on kaikkein pyhin.

2 Siinä paikassa, kussa polttouhri teurastetaan, pitää myös teurastettaman vikauhri, ja sen veri pitää priiskotettaman alttarille ympärinsä.

3 Ja kaikki sen lihavuus pitää uhrattaman, sekä häntä että lihavuus, joka sisällykset peittää.

4 Ja ne kaksi munaskuuta sen lihavuuden kanssa, joka niiden päällä on lanteissa: ja maksan kalvon munaskuiden kanssa pitää hänen eroittaman.

5 Niin pitää papin sen polttaman alttarilla tuliuhriksi Herralle; se on vikauhri.

6 Jokainen miehenpuoli papeista pitää syömän sen; pyhässä siassa pitää se syötämän; sillä se on kaikkein pyhin.

7 Niinkuin rikosuhri on, niin pitää myös vikauhrin oleman; sillä yhtäläinen pitää heidän molempain säätynsä oleman: ja se pitää sen papin oma oleman, joka sillä sovittaa.

8 Sen papin, joka polttouhrin uhraa, pitää polttouhrin vuota oma oleman, jonka hän uhrannut on.

9 Ja kaikkinainen ruokauhri, joka pätsissä kypsetty on, ja kaikki kuin pannussa eli halstarilla valmistettu on, sen pitää papin oman oleman, joka sen uhraa.

10 Ja kaikkinainen ruokauhri, joka öljyllä sekoitettu, taikka kuiva on, sen pitää kaikkein Aaronin lasten oman oleman, yhden niinkuin toisenkin.

11 Ja tämä on kiitosuhrin sääty, joka Herralle uhrataan:

12 Jos he tahtovat tehdä ylistysuhria, niin heidän pitää uhraaman ylistysuhrin sivussa happamattomia leipiä, sekoitettuja öljyllä, ja happamattomia ohukaisia kyrsiä, voidelluita öljyllä, ja pannussa kypsetyitä sämpyläleipiä sekoitettuja öljyllä.

13 Mutta senkaltaisia uhreja pitää heidän tekemän hapanneen kyrsän päälle, heidän kiitosuhrinsa ylistysuhriksi.

14 Ja yksi kaikista niistä pitää uhrattaman Herralle ylennysuhriksi, ja sen pitää papin oman oleman, joka priiskottaa kiitosuhrin vereen.

15 Ja ylistysuhrin liha hänen kiitosuhrissansa pitää sinä päivänä syötämän, jona se uhrattu on, ja ei mitään pidä tähteeksi jätettämän huomeneksi.

16 Mutta jos joku lupauksesta taikka hyvästä tahdosta uhraa, niin se pitää sinä päivänä syötämän, jona se uhrattu on; mutta jos jotakin tähteeksi jää uhrista toiseksi päiväksi, niin pitää se myös syötämän.

17 Mutta se mikä tähteeksi jää siitä uhrin lihasta, niin se kolmantena päivänä pitää poltettaman tulessa.

18 Mutta jos joku syö kolmantena päivänä siitä uhratusta lihasta, joka on hänen kiitosuhristansa, niin ei ole hän otollinen, joka sen on uhrannut, eikä se hänelle pidä luettaman, mutta se on kauhistus; ja jokainen sielu, joka sitä syö, on vikapää pahaan tekoon.

19 Mutta se liha, joka sattuu johonkuhun saastaisuuteen, ei pidä syötämän, mutta tulessa poltettaman. Joka puhdas on, se pitää syömän lihasta.

20 Ja se sielu, joka syö kiitosuhrin lihasta, siitä mikä Hrran oma on, ja hänen saastaisuutensa on hänen päällänsä, se sielu pitää hävitettämän kansoistansa.

21 Jos joku sielu rupee johonkuhun saastaisuuteen, olkoon se saastainen ihminen eli saastainen eläin eli joku muu saastainen kauhistus, ja syö kiitosuhrin lihasta siitä mikä Herran oma on, se pitää hävitettämän kansoistansa.

22 Ja Herra puhui Mosekselle, sanoen:

23 Puhu Israelin lapsille, sanoen: ei teidän pidä mitään lihavuutta syömän härjistä, lampaista ja vuohista.

24 Raadon eli haaskan lihavuus pantakoon kaikkinaisiin tarpeisiin: mutta ei teidän pidä sitä kaiketikaan syömän.

25 Sillä joka syö lihavuutta siitä eläimestä, joka Herralle tuliuhriksi annettu on, se sielu pitää hävitettämän kansoistansa.

26 Ei teidän pidä myös verta syömän kaikissa teidän asumasioissanne, ei linnuista, eikä eläimistä.

27 Jokainen sielu, joka syö jotain verta, se pitää hävitettämän kansoistansa.

28 Ja Herra puhui Mosekselle, sanoen:

29 Puhu Israelin lapsille, sanoen: se joka Herralle kiitosuhrinsa uhraa, hänen pitää tuoman, mikä Herralle kiitosuhriksi tulee.

30 Mutta hänen pitää sen kantaman kädessänsä Herran tuliuhriksi: rinnan lihavuuden pitää hänen tuoman rinnan kanssa, että ne pitää oleman häälytysuhriksi Herralle.

31 Mutta papin pitää polttaman lihavuuden alttarilla, ja rinnan pitää Aaronin ja hänen poikainsa oleman.

32 Ja oikian lavan pitää teidän antaman papille ylennysuhriksi, teidän kiitosuhristanne.

33 Ja joka uhraa kiitosuhrin verta ja lihavuutta Aaronin pojista, hänen pitää saaman oikian lavan osaksensa.

34 Sillä häälytysrinnan ja ylennyslavan olen minä ottanut Israelin lapsilta heidän kiitosuhristansa, ja olen sen antanut papille Aaronille ja hänen pojillensa ijankaikkiseksi säädyksi, Israelin lapsilta.

35 Tämä on Aaronin ja hänen poikainsa voitelus Herran tuliuhrista, siitä päivästä, jona he Herralle papiksi annettiin.

36 Jotka Herra käski sinä päivänä, jona hän heidän voiteli, annettaa heille Israelin lapsilta, ijankaikkiseksi säädyksi heidän sukukunnissansa.

37 Ja tämä on sääty polttouhrista, ruokauhrista, rikosuhrista, vikauhrista, niin myös täytösuhrista ja kiitosuhrista.

38 Jonka Herra Mosekselle käski Sinain vuorella; sinä päivänä, jona hän käskyn antoi hänelle Israelin lasten tykö, että heidän pitää uhraaman uhrinsa Herralle Sinain korvessa.

9965. 'That they may not bear iniquity and die' means the elimination of the whole of worship. This is clear from the meaning of 'bearing the iniquity', when the subject is the priestly office of Aaron and his sons, as a removal or shifting away of falsities and evils with those who are governed by good derived from the Lord, dealt with above in 9937. But when it speaks of them 'bearing iniquity and dying' the elimination of the whole of worship is meant, see 9928; for the representative worship died because nothing of it appeared any longer in heaven. The situation in all this may become clear from what has been stated and shown above in 9959-9961. They also died when they did not act in accordance with the statutes, 1 as is evident from Aaron's sons Nadab and Abihu, who were devoured by fire from heaven when they did not take the fire of the altar to burn incense but foreign 2 fire, Leviticus 10:1-2ff. 'The fire of the altar' represented God's love, thus love from the Lord, whereas 'foreign fire' represented love from hell. The elimination of worship was meant by their burning incense with this fire and their consequent death. For the meaning of 'fire' as love, see 5215, 6832, 7324, 7575, 7852.

[2] Many places in the Word state that they would bear iniquity when they did not do things in accordance with the statutes, and by this was meant damnation because sins had not been removed. Not that they themselves were condemned on account of disobeying the statutes. Rather by doing so they eliminated representative worship and in so doing represented the damnation of those who remain in their sins. For none are condemned because they fail in their performance of outward religious observances, only because of evils in the heart, thus because of failing in such observances as a result of evil in the heart. This is what 'bearing iniquity' means in the following places: In Moses,

If a soul sins and acts against any of Jehovah's commandments regarding what ought not to be done, 3 though he does not know it, yet he will be guilty and will bear his iniquity. Leviticus 5:17-18.

Here the retention of evils and consequent damnation should not be understood literally by 'bearing iniquity', although that is the spiritual meaning; for it says 'though he does not know it', implying that what the person has done does not spring from evil in the heart.

[3] In the same author,

If any of the flesh of the sacrifice of his peace offering is eaten at all on the third day, the one offering it will not be accepted. It is an abomination, and the soul that eats it will bear his iniquity, and will be cut off from his people. Leviticus 7:18; 19:7-8.

Here also 'bearing iniquity' means remaining in his sins and being as a result in a state of damnation. It does so not because the person ate some of his sacrifice on the third day, but because 'eating it on the third day' represented something abominable, namely an action leading to damnation. Thus 'bearing iniquity and being cut off from his people' represented the damnation of those who performed the abomination meant by that deed. Nevertheless there was no condemnation on account of his having eaten it, for interior evils that were represented are what condemn, not exterior actions in which those evils are not present.

[4] In the same author,

Every soul who eats a carcass 4 or that which has been torn, and does not wash his clothes and bathe his flesh shall bear his iniquity. Leviticus 17:15-16.

Since 'eating a carcass or that which has been torn' represented making evil or falsity one's own, the expression 'bearing iniquity' also has a representative meaning. In the same author,

If a man who is clean fails to keep the Passover, this soul shall be cut off from his people, because he did not bring the offering of Jehovah at its appointed time; he shall bear his sin. Numbers 9:13.

'The Passover' represented deliverance by the Lord from damnation, 7093 (end), 7867, 7995, 9286-9292; and 'the Passover supper' represented being joined to the Lord through the good of love, 7836, 7997, 8001. And since these things were represented it was decreed that anyone who did not keep the Passover should be cut off from his people and that he should bear his sin. The failure to keep it was not really so great a crime; rather it represented those who at heart refuse to accept the Lord and consequently deliverance from sins, and so who have no wish to be joined to Him through love. Thus it represented their damnation.

[5] In the same author,

The children of Israel shall not come near the tent of meeting, or else they will bear iniquity and die. 5 Levites shall perform the work of the tent of meeting, and these shall bear the iniquity. Numbers 18:22-23.

The reason why the people would bear iniquity and die if they were to go near the tent of meeting to do the work there was that they would thereby eliminate the representative worship assigned to the function of the priests. The function of the priests or the priestly office represented the Lord's entire work of salvation, 9809; and this is why it says that the Levites, who also were priests, should bear the people's iniquity, by which expiation or atonement was meant, that is, removal from evils and falsities with those who are governed by good derived from the Lord alone, 9937. 'Bearing iniquity' means real damnation when this expression is used in reference to those who perform evil deeds because their heart is evil, such as those mentioned in Leviticus 20:17, 19-20; 24:15-16; Ezekiel 18:20; 23:49; and elsewhere.

4535. The preliminary sections of previous chapters - Chapter 26 onwards - explained what the Lord foretold about His Coming or THE CLOSE OF THE AGE. Frequently in those sections it has been shown that His Coming or the Close of the Age means the last period of the Church, which in the Word is called the Last Judgement. Those who do not look beyond the literal sense cannot know of the Last Judgement as anything else than the destruction of the world, the particular source for such an idea being the Book of Revelation. There it is said that [John] saw 'a new heaven and a new earth, for the former heaven and the former earth had passed away; and there was no more sea', and in addition that he saw 'the Holy City, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven', Revelation 21:1-2. Prophetical utterances in Isaiah, where similar predictions occur, are also a source of the same idea,

Behold, I am creating new heavens and a new earth; therefore the former things will not be remembered or come to mind. 1 Be glad and rejoice for ever in the things I am creating; behold, I will create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy. Isaiah 65:17-18; 66:22.

[2] Those who do not look beyond the literal sense cannot conceive of anything else than this - that the whole sky together with this planet will be annihilated, and then the dead - for the first time - will rise again and dwell in the new heaven and on the new earth. But these places in the Word should not be understood in that way, as may be recognized from other places in the Word where the heavens and the earth are referred to. Those who have any belief in an internal sense can see plainly that 'a new heaven' and 'a new earth' are used to mean a new Church which takes over when the previous one passes away, 1733, 1850, 3355 (end), and that 'heaven' is the internal aspect of that new Church and 'earth' the external aspect of it.

[3] This last period of the previous Church and the first of the new one are also called the Close of the Age, about which the Lord has spoken in Matthew 24. They are called also His Coming, for at that time the Lord departs from the previous Church and comes to the new. The description of that period as the Close of the Age may also be seen from other places in the Word, as in Isaiah,

On that day a remnant will return, the remnant of Jacob, to the God of power. For though your people Israel will be as the sand of the sea, a remnant of it will return. The close has been determined, overflowing with righteousness, for the Lord Jehovih Zebaoth is bringing the whole earth to its close and to its determined end. Isaiah 10:20-23.

In the same prophet,

Now do not be derisive, lest your punishments increase, for a close and a cutting off I have heard from the Lord Jehovih Zebaoth over the whole earth. Isaiah 28:22.

In Jeremiah,

Thus said Jehovah, The whole earth will be a waste, yet I will not bring it to a close. Jeremiah 4:27.

In Zephaniah,

I will bring men into distress, and they will go as the blind, because they have sinned against Jehovah; and their blood will be poured out like dust, and their flesh like dung. For Jehovah will bring to a close, indeed to a hasty one, all the inhabitants of the earth. Zephaniah 1:17-18.

From each detail stated here it is evident that 'a close' means the last period of the Church and 'the earth' the Church itself.

[4] The reason why 'the earth (or land)' means the Church is that the land of Canaan was the land where the Church had existed since most ancient times, and later on where among the descendants of Jacob a representative of the Church existed. When this land is said to have been 'brought to a close' it is not the nation dwelling there that is meant but the holiness of worship which existed with the nation where the Church was. For the Word is spiritual; but the actual land is not spiritual, nor is the nation dwelling in it, only that which constitutes the Church there. For evidence that the land of Canaan was the land where the Church had existed from most ancient times, see 567, 3686, 4447, 4454, 4516, 4517; and this explains why 'the land' or 'the earth' in the Word means the Church, 566, 662, 1066, 1067, 1262, 3355, 4447. From all this one may see what is meant in Isaiah by 'bringing the whole earth to a close', and in Zephaniah by 'bringing all the inhabitants of the earth to a hasty one'. It is well known that the Jewish nation which inhabited that land was not 'brought to a close' but that the holiness of worship among them was.

[5] This meaning of 'the close' is even clearer in Daniel,

Seventy weeks have been decreed concerning your people and your holy city to bring transgression to a close and to seal up sins and to atone for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up vision and prophet, and to anoint the Most Holy Place. In the middle of the week he will cause sacrifice and offering to cease. At length upon the bird of desolations will come desolation; until a close and a cutting off will it drop upon the devastation. Daniel 9:24, 27.

[6] From this one may now see that the close of the age - about which the disciples were asking when they said to the Lord 'What will be the sign of Your coming and of the close of the age?' Matthew 24:3 - does not mean anything else than the final period of the Church. The same is also meant by the Lord's words, which are the very last in the same gospel,

Jesus said to the disciples, Teaching them to observe 2 all things whatever I have commanded you; and behold, I am with you at all times 3 even to the close of the age. Matthew 28:20.

The reason why the Lord said that He would be with the disciples even to the close of the age is that the Lord's twelve disciples are similar in meaning to the twelve tribes of Israel. That is to say, they mean all things of love and faith, and therefore all things of the Church, see 3354, 3488, 3858, as do the twelve tribes, 3858, 3926, 3939, 4060. The fact that the Church reaches its close when no charity exists there any longer, nor consequently any faith, has been shown several times already; and that within the Church at the present day, called the Christian Church, scarcely any trace of charity or consequently of faith survives there; and that the close of the age is accordingly now at hand, will in the Lord's Divine mercy be shown further on.
