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.

10203. 'Incense shall be continual before Jehovah' means in all worship springing from love received from the Lord. This is clear from the meaning of 'incense' as worship springing from love, dealt with in 9475; from the meaning of 'continual' as all and within all, dealt with in 10133; and from the meaning of 'before Jehovah' as from the Lord, dealt with in 10146. The expression 'worship springing from love received from the Lord' is used because both faith and love, the essential elements of worship, come from the Lord, and also the raising up to the Lord of everything of worship is done by Him. The person who has no knowledge of the arcana of heaven supposes that worship comes from himself since he thinks about and pays homage to the Lord. But worship which comes from a person himself is not worship; only that which comes from the Lord with a person is such. For love and faith compose worship, and since love and faith come from the Lord worship too comes from Him. Nor is a person able to raise anything from himself up to heaven; it is the Lord who raises it. Within the person there is solely the capacity for this to happen, which he is endowed with when being regenerated, 6148; but all the motive force and energy of that capacity come from the Lord.

Life itself comes from the Lord, and men and angels are recipient forms, see 1954, 2021, 2536, 2706, 3001, 3318, 3484, 3741-3743, 4151, 4249, 4318-4320, 4417, 4523, 4524, 4882, 5847, 5986, 6325, 6467, 6468, 6470, 6472, 6479, 9338.

Arcana Coelestia#4882

4882. 'And went' means life. This is clear from the meaning of 'going' as living, dealt with in 3335, 3690. This meaning of 'going' in the internal sense as living does indeed seem quite remote from or unrelated to ideas man has which constitute his thought. The reason for this is that man dwells within space and time, and with these has formed the ideas comprising his thought, such as the idea of going, advancing, setting out, sojourning, or moving on. Now because these actions occur within both space and time, and as a consequence space and time have become embedded in ideas of those actions, man therefore finds it difficult to grasp that states of life are meant. But when his idea of those actions is relieved or divested of spatial and temporal elements the spiritual reality that is meant leaps out. For in the spiritual world or heaven nothing at all spatial or temporal enters the ideas they have, but instead aspects of a state of life, 1274, 1382, 2625, 2788, 2837, 3356, 3404, 3827, 4814. It does indeed appear to spirits and angels that they too move about, going from one place to another, and indeed exactly in the same way as it appears so to men. All the same, it is the changes taking place in their state of life that are responsible for this appearance. To them also, no less than to men, the appearance is that they live self-dependently, when in fact they do not live self-dependently but are dependent on the Lord's Divine, the source of every spark of life. Among angels these appearances are called real ones, because they seem in all reality to exist.

[2] I have on occasions spoken to spirits about these appearances, but those who are not governed by good, nor consequently by truth, do not wish to listen when told it is but an appearance that they live self-dependently; for their wish is to live self-dependently. But in addition to showing them from actual experience that they do not lead self-dependent lives and that every advance made from one place to another is a change to, and an advance made in, their state of life, I have also told them that for them it may be sufficient for them to know no other than that they live self-dependently, and that their life would be life no more if they did not live self-dependency. It would nevertheless be better for them to know what the situation really is, for in that case they would have the truth; and if they have the truth they also dwell in the light of heaven, since the light of heaven is the truth itself which flows from the Lord's Divine. Furthermore, if the truth existed with them in this way they would not claim that good was their own, nor would evil cling to them. Angels possessing that truth do not merely know it; they also have a perception of it.

[3] Intervals of time and space in the spiritual world are states of life, and every spark of life has its origin in the Lord, as the following experience may show. Each spirit and angel sees on his right those who are good and on his left those who are evil; this is so in whatever direction he turns himself. If he turns and looks eastwards he sees the good to the right and the evil to the left. The same happens if he turns and looks to the west, and likewise to the south or the north. This is the case with every spirit or angel, so that if there were two, and one of these turned and looked to the east and the other did so to the west, each would still see the good on his right and the evil on his left. Those far removed from, even behind the backs of, those who behold them are seen in those unchanging positions. From these considerations one may deduce clearly that every spark of life has its origin in the Lord, that is, that the Lord is within the life of everyone; for in the spiritual world the Lord is seen as the Sun, the good or sheep being on His right, and the evil or goats on His left. The same is therefore the case with each spirit or angel, for the reason, as stated, that the Lord exists in every spark of life. This is bound to look like a paradox to man, for as long as he is in the world man has ideas that are formed from worldly things, and therefore from what is spatial and temporal. But as stated above, in the spiritual world no ideas are formed from what is spatial and temporal but from the state belonging to affections and the thoughts flowing from these. It is for this reason also that the intervals of space and time in the Word mean states.
