1 FA’ ancora un Altare da fare i profumi; fallo di legno di Sittim.

2 Sia quadro, di lunghezza d’un cubito, e di larghezza d’un cubito; e sia la sua altezza di due cubiti; sieno le sue corna tirate di esso.

3 E coprilo d’oro puro, il suo coperchio, i suoi lati d’intorno, e le sue corna; e fagli una corona d’oro attorno attorno.

4 Fagli ancora due anelli d’oro disotto a quella sua corona, a’ due suoi cantoni; falli da due dei suoi lati; e sieno per mettervi dentro le stanghe, per portar l’Altare con esse.

5 E fa’ le stanghe di legno di Sittim, e coprile d’oro.

6 E metti quell’Altare davanti alla Cortina, che sarà dirimpetto all’Arca della Testimonianza, davanti al Coperchio che sarà sopra la Testimonianza, dove io mi ritroverò teco.

7 E faccia Aaronne profumo di aromati sopra esso; faccia quel profumo ogni mattina, quando egli avrà acconce le lampane.

8 E faccia Aaronne quel medesimo profumo, quando avrà accese le lampane fra i due vespri. Sia questo un profumo continuo davanti al Signore, per le vostre età.

9 Non offerite sopra esso alcun profumo strano, nè olocausto, nè offerta; e non ispandete alcuno spargimento sopra esso.

10 E faccia Aaronne, una volta l’anno, purgamento de’ peccati sopra le corna di esso; faccia quel purgamento una volta l’anno, per le vostre età, sopra esso, col sangue del sacrificio de’ purgamenti, fatto per lo peccato. Questo Altare sia una cosa santissima al Signore.

11 IL Signore parlò ancora a Mosè, dicendo:

12 Quando tu farai la rassegna de’ figliuoli d’Israele, di coloro d’infra essi che devono essere annoverati, dia ciascuno al Signore il riscatto dell’anima sua, quando saranno annoverati; acciocchè non venga sopra essi alcuna piaga, mentre saranno annoverati.

13 Essi daranno questo: chiunque passa fra gli annoverati, darà un mezzo siclo, a siclo di Santuario, il quale è di venti oboli, per offerta al Signore.

14 Chiunque passa fra gli annoverati, di età da vent’anni in su, darà quell’offerta al Signore.

15 Il ricco non darà più, nè il povero meno di un mezzo siclo, in questa offerta al Signore, per lo riscatto delle anime vostre.

16 E piglia que’ danari de’ riscatti dai figliuoli d’Israele, e impiegali nell’opera del Tabernacolo della convenenza, e sieno per ricordanza per li figliuoli d’Israele, nel cospetto del Signore, per fare il riscatto delle anime vostre.

17 IL Signore parlò ancora a Mosè, dicendo:

18 Fa’, oltre a ciò, una Conca di rame, col suo piè di rame, per lavare; e ponila fra il Tabernacolo della convenenza e l’Altare; e mettivi dentro dell’acqua.

19 E lavinsene Aaronne e i suoi figliuoli le mani ed i piedi.

20 Quando entreranno nel Tabernacolo della convenenza, ovvero quando si accosteranno all’Altare, per fare il servigio divino per far bruciare alcuna offerta fatta col fuoco al Signore, lavinsi con acqua, acciocchè non muoiano.

21 E lavinsi le mani ed i piedi, acciocchè non muoiano. Sia loro questo uno statuto perpetuo; ad Aaronne, dico, e a’ suoi figliuoli, per le loro età.

22 Il Signore parlò ancora a Mosè, dicendo:

23 Prenditi degli aromati eccellenti, della mirra schietta il peso di cinquecento sicli, del cinamomo odoroso la metà, cioè dugencinquanta, e della canna odorosa parimente dugencinquanta;

24 e della cassia cinquecento sicli, a siclo di Santurario; e un hin d’olio di uliva.

25 E fanne l’olio per la sacra Unzione, un unguento composto per arte d’unguentaro. Questo sia l’olio della sacra Unzione.

26 Ungi con esso il Tabernacolo della convenenza, e l’Arca della Testimonianza;

27 e la Tavola, e tutti i suoi strumenti; ed il Candelliere, e tutti i suoi strumenti; e l’Altar de’ profumi;

28 e l’Altar degli olocausti, e tutti i suoi strumenti; e la Conca, e il suo piè.

29 Così consacrerai quelle cose, e saranno cose santissime; tutto quello che le toccherà sia sacro.

30 Ungi parimente Aaronne e i suoi figliuoli, e consacrali acciocchè mi esercitino il sacerdozio.

31 E parla a’ figliuoli d’Israele, dicendo: Quest’olio mi sarà un olio di sacra unzione, per le vostre età.

32 Non ungasene la carne di alcun uomo, e non ne fate alcun simigliante, secondo la sua composizione; egli è cosa santa; siavi cosa santa.

33 Chi ne comporrà del simigliante, ovvero chi ne metterà sopra alcuna persona strana, sia riciso da’ suoi popoli.

34 Il Signore disse oltre a ciò a Mosè: Prenditi degli aromati, storace liquida, unghia odorosa, e galbano, e incenso puro; ciascuno aromato a parte a peso uguale.

35 E fanne un profumo una composizione aromatica fatta per arte di profumiere, confettata, pura e santa.

36 E di essa stritolane alquanto minuto minuto, e mettilo davanti alla Testimonianza, nel Tabernacolo della convenenza, dove io mi troverò teco. Siavi questo profumo una cosa santissima.

37 E non fatevi alcun profumo di composizione simigliante a quello che tu avrai fatto. Siati esso una cosa sacra al Signore.

38 Chi ne farà del simigliante, per odorarlo, sia riciso da’ suoi popoli.

   


To many Protestant and Evangelical Italians, the Bibles translated by Giovanni Diodati are an important part of their history. Diodati’s first Italian Bible edition was printed in 1607, and his second in 1641. He died in 1649. Throughout the 1800s two editions of Diodati’s text were printed by the British Foreign Bible Society. This is the more recent 1894 edition, translated by Claudiana.

10176. [10175(a)] Exodus 30

1. And you shall make an altar for burning incense; with pieces of shittim wood you shall make it.

2. A cubit shall be its length, and a cubit its breadth; square shall it be. And two cubits shall its height be. Its horns shall be of one piece with it 1 .

3. And you shall overlay it with pure gold, its roof and its walls 2 round about and its horns; and you shall make for it a rim of gold round about.

4. And two rings of gold you shall make for it under its rim on its two ribs; you shall make [them] on its two sides. And they shall serve as 3 receptacles for the poles, to carry it on them.

5. And you shall make the poles from pieces of shittim wood, and overlay them with gold.

6. And you shall put it before the veil that is over the ark of the Testimony, before the mercy-seat which is above the Testimony, where I will meet with you.

7. And Aaron shall burn on it incense of spices morning by morning 4 ; when adorning 5 the lamps he shall burn it.

8. And when Aaron causes the lamps to go up 6 between the evenings he shall burn it; incense shall be continual before Jehovah throughout 7 your generations.

9. You shall not cause strange 8 incense to go up on it, or a burnt offering, or a minchah; and you shall not pour a drink offering on it.

10. And Aaron shall make expiation on its horns once a year with the blood of the sin [offering] of expiations; once a year he shall make expiation on it throughout 7 your generations. It is the holy of holies 9 to Jehovah.

11. And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,

12. When you take the sum of the children of Israel, as they have been numbered 10 , they shall give - each one - an expiation for his soul to Jehovah when they are numbered 11 , that there may be no plague among them when they are numbered 10 .

13. This is what they shall give, everyone passing over to those who have been numbered - half a shekel according to the shekel of holiness (a shekel is twenty obols 12 ). Half a shekel shall be the offering to Jehovah.

14. Everyone passing over to those who have been numbered, from a son of twenty years 13 and over, shall give the offering of Jehovah.

15. The rich shall not give more, and the poor shall not give less than half a shekel when they give the offering of Jehovah, to make expiation for your souls.

16. And you shall take the silver of expiations from the children of Israel, and give it to the work of the tent of meeting; and to the children of Israel it shall be as a remembrance before Jehovah, to make expiation for your souls.

17. And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,

18. And you shall make a laver of bronze, and its pedestal from bronze, for washing; and you shall put it between the tent of meeting and the altar, and put water in it.

19. And Aaron and his sons shall wash in it 14 their hands and their feet.

20. When they go into the tent of meeting they shall wash with water, that they may not die, or when they approach the altar to minister, to burn a fire offering to Jehovah.

21. And they shall wash their hands and their feet, that they may not die; and it shall be the statute of an age 15 to them - for him and his seed [throughout] their generations.

22. And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,

23. And you, take for yourself the chief spices - the best myrrh, five hundred [shekels]; and sweet-smelling cinnamon, half of that, two hundred and fifty; and sweet-smelling calamus, two hundred and fifty;

24. And cassia, five hundred, according to the shekel of holiness; and olive oil, a hin.

25. And you shall make it a holy anointing oil 16 , a compounded ointment 17 , the work of an ointment-maker; it shall be the holy anointing oil 16 .

26. And with it you shall anoint the tent of meeting, and the ark of the Testimony,

27. And the table and all its vessels, and the lampstand and its vessels, and the altar of incense,

28. And the altar of burnt offering and all its vessels, and the laver and its pedestal.

29. And you shall sanctify them, and they shall be the holy of holies 17 ; everyone touching them will be sanctified.

30. And you shall anoint Aaron and his sons, and sanctify them to serve Me in the priestly office.

31. And you shall speak to the children of Israel, saying, This shall be a holy anointing oil 19 to Me throughout 20 your generations.

32. It shall not be poured onto the flesh of a person, and as to the composition of it, you shall not make any other like it 21 . It is holy; it shall be holy to you.

33. The man who makes an ointment like it, and he who puts any of it on a foreigner, shall be cut off from his people.

34. And Jehovah said to Moses, Take for yourself sweet spices, stacte and onycha and galbanum - [these] sweet ones, and pure frankincense; amount for amount there shall be 22 .

35. And you shall make this an incense, an ointment, the work of an ointment-maker - salted, pure, holy.

36. And you shall beat some of it very fine, and put some of it before the Testimony in the tent of meeting, where I will meet with you. The holy of holies 23 it shall be to you.

37. And the incense which you make, according to its composition 24 , you shall not make for yourselves; it shall be to you holy for Jehovah.

38. The man who makes any like it, to make an odour with it, will be cut off from his people.

CONTENTS

This chapter deals with the altar of incense, the expiation of everyone by means of silver, the laver and washing [with water] from it, and the preparation of the anointing oil and of the incense. The burning of incense in the internal sense means the Lord, His hearing and receiving with pleasure everything of worship that springs from love and charity. Expiating every person by means of silver means ascribing everything of worship to the Lord and none of it to self, in order that no one may claim merit. The laver and washing mean the purification from evils that comes first in all worship. The preparation of the anointing oil means the essential nature of the love in worship, and the preparation of the incense the essential nature of worship arising from it.

THE INTERNAL SENSE

Verses 1-10 And you shall make an altar for burning incense; with pieces of shittim wood you shall make it. A cubit shall be its length, and a cubit its breadth; square shall it be. And two cubits shall its height be. Its horns shall be of one piece with it 25 . And you shall overlay it with pure gold, its roof and its walls 26 round about and its horns; and you shall make for it a rim of gold round about. And two rings of gold you shall make for it under its rim on its two ribs; you shall make [them] on its two sides. And they shall serve as receptacles for the poles, to carry it on them. And you shall make the poles from pieces of shittim wood, and overlay them with gold. And you shall put it before the veil that is over the ark of the Testimony, before the mercy-seat which is above the Testimony, where I will meet with you. And Aaron shall burn on it incense of spices morning by morning 27 ; when adorning 28 the lamps he shall burn it. And when Aaron causes the lamps to go up 29 between the evenings he shall burn it; incense shall be continual before Jehovah throughout 30 your generations. You shall not cause strange 31 incense to go up on it, or a burnt offering, or a minchah; and you shall not pour a drink offering on it. And Aaron shall make expiation on its horns once a year with the blood of the sin [offering] of expiations; once a year he shall make expiation on it throughout 30 your generations. It is the holy of holies 32 to Jehovah.

'And you shall make an altar for burning incense' means that which is representative of the Lord, of His hearing and receiving with pleasure everything of worship that springs from love and charity. 'With pieces of shittim wood you shall make it' means from love that is Divine. 'A cubit shall be its length, and a cubit its breadth' means consisting equally of good and of truth. 'Square shall it be' means that which is therefore perfect. 'And two cubits shall its height be' means degrees of the good and truth, and the joining together of them. 'Its horns shall be of one piece with it' means the powers of truth derived from the good of love and charity. 'And you shall overlay it with pure gold' means a representative sign of everything of worship that arises from good. 'Its roof' means what is inmost. 'Its walls' means inner levels. 'And its horns' means outer levels. 'And you shall make for it a rim of gold round about' means a border of good, serving to defend them from the approach of evils and the harm these can do. 'And two rings of gold you shall make for it under the rim' means the sphere of Divine Good by means of which a joining together and preservation are effected. 'On its two ribs' means with truths lying in one direction. 'You shall make [them] on its two sides' means with good lying in the other. 'And they shall serve as receptacles for the poles' means the power there of truth derived from good. 'To carry it on them' means the resulting preservation in that condition. 'And you shall make the poles from pieces of shittim wood' means the power derived from the good of the Lord's love. 'And overlay them with gold' means the founding of all things on good.

'Before the mercy-seat which is above the Testimony' means where the Lord hears and receives everything of worship arising from the good of love. 'Where I will meet with you' means the resulting presence and influx of the Lord. 'And Aaron shall burn on it' means the raising up by the Lord of worship springing from love and charity. 'Incense of spices' means hearing and receiving with pleasure. 'Morning by morning' means whenever a state of love in clearness exists. 'When adorning the lamps he shall burn it' means whenever truth as well comes into its own light. 'And when Aaron causes the lamps to go up between the evenings he shall burn it' means the raising up also in an obscure state of love, when also truth exists in its shade. 'Incense shall be continual before Jehovah' means in all worship springing from love received from the Lord. 'Throughout your generations' means to eternity among those with faith springing from love. 'You shall not cause strange incense to go up on it' means no worship springing from any love other than that of the Lord. 'Or a burnt offering, or a minchah' means that nothing representative of regeneration by means of the truths and forms of good belonging to celestial love should be there. 'And you shall not pour a drink offering on it' means that nothing representative of regeneration by means of the truths and forms of good belonging to spiritual love should be there. 'And Aaron shall make expiation on its horns' means purification from evils by means of the truths of faith which spring from the good of love. 'Once a year' means everlastingly. 'With the blood of the sin [offering] of expiations' means by means of truths which spring from the good of innocence. 'Once a year he shall make expiation on it' means the everlasting removal of evils.
