1 IL Signore parlò ancora a Mosè, dicendo: Vedi, io ho chiamato per nome Besaleel,

2 figliuol di Uri, figliuol di Hur, della tribù di Giuda.

3 E l’ho ripieno dello spirito di Dio, in industria, e in ingegno, e in sapere, e in ogni artificio;

4 per far disegni da lavorare in oro, e in argento, e in rame;

5 e in arte di pietre da legare, e in arte di lavorar di legno, in qualunque lavorio.

6 Ed ecco, io gli ho aggiunto Oholiab, figliuol di Ahisamac, della tribù di Dan. Io ho oltre a ciò messa industria nell’animo d’ogni uomo industrioso, acciocchè facciano tutte le cose che io ti ho comandate.

7 Il Tabernacolo della convenenza, e l’Arca per la Testimonianza, e il Coperchio che ha da esser sopra essa, e tutti gli arredi del Tabernacolo.

8 E la Tavola, e i suoi strumenti; e il Candelliere puro, e tutti i suoi strumenti; e l’Altar de’ profumi.

9 E l’Altar degli olocausti, e tutti i suoi strumenti; e la Conca, e il suo piede.

10 E i vestimenti del servigio divino, e i vestimenti sacri del Sacerdote Aaronne, e i vestimenti dei suoi figliuoli, per esercitare il sacerdozio.

11 E l’olio dell’Unzione, e il profumo degli aromati per lo Santuario. Facciano interamente com’io ti ho comandato.

12 IL Signore parlò ancora a Mosè, dicendo:

13 E tu, parla a’ figliuoli di Israele, dicendo: Tuttavia osservate i miei Sabati; perciocchè il Sabato è un segnale fra me e voi, per le vostre età; acciocchè voi conosciate ch’io sono il Signore che vi santifico.

14 Osservate adunque il Sabato; perciocchè egli vi è un giorno santo; chiunque lo profanerà del tutto sia fatto morire; perciocchè qualunque persona farà in esso alcun lavoro, sarà ricisa d’infra i suoi popoli.

15 Lavorisi sei giorni, ma al settimo giorno è il Sabato del riposo, giorno sacro al Signore; chiunque farà lavoro alcuno nel giorno del Sabato, del tutto sia fatto morire.

16 Osservino adunque i figliuoli d’Israele il Sabato, per celebrarlo per le loro età, per patto perpetuo.

17 Esso è un segnale perpetuo fra me e i figliuoli d’Israele; conciossiachè il Signore abbia in sei giorni fatto il cielo e la terra; e nel settimo giorno cessò, e si riposò.

18 E dopo che il Signore ebbe finito di parlar con Mosè in sul monte di Sinai, egli gli diede le due Tavole della Testimonianza, Tavole di pietra, scritte col dito di Dio.

   


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.

10296. '[And] pure frankincense' means truth on the inmost level, which is spiritual good. This is clear from the meaning of 'frankincense' as truth on the inmost level; and from the meaning of 'pure' as that which has been purged of the falsity of evil. The reason why truth on the inmost level, meant by 'frankincense', is spiritual good is that good with those who are in the Lord's spiritual kingdom is nothing other than truth. But this truth is called good when a person wills and does it from conscience and from affection. For in the case of those who are spiritual the entire will part of the mind has been corrupted; but the understanding part is preserved intact by the Lord, and within it the Lord implants a new will through regeneration. This new will is the conscience they have within them, which is a conscience composed of truth. All that is implanted in the understanding and emanates from the understanding is truth; for the human understanding is dedicated to the reception of truths belonging to faith, whereas the will is dedicated to receiving forms of good belonging to love. From all this it is evident that spiritual good is in its essence truth. As regards the new will in the case of those who are spiritual, that it is implanted in the understanding part of their minds, so that good with them is in its essence truth, see in the places referred to in 9277, 9596, 9684. Truth on the inmost level is called good because the more internal things are, the more perfect they are, and because the inmost part of a person is his will and what belongs to his will is called good. That 'frankincense' means truth on the inmost level, and so means spiritual good, may be recognized from the places quoted from the Word in 10177 above.

[2] Since spiritual good is meant by 'frankincense', and good is what reigns within all truths, arranges them into order, links them together, and imparts affection to them, frankincense is mentioned last; and the containers in which incense was burned were therefore called censers 1 . For the designation is derived from the essential element, which is good, even as for a like reason the term 'the anointing oil' was derived from the olive oil and not from the spices mixed into it when it was being prepared, that is to say, for the reason that 'the oil' meant good and 'the spices' different kinds of truth.

[3] The expression 'pure frankincense' is used because 'pure' means that which has been purged of the falsities of evil; and the word in the original language means inwardly pure, while another word is used to mean outwardly pure or clean. The fact that what is inwardly pure is meant by that word is clear in Isaiah,

Wash yourselves, render yourselves pure; remove the wickedness of your doings from before My eyes. Isaiah 1:16.

In David,

In vain have I rendered my heart pure, and washed my hands in innocence. Psalms 73:13.

'Rendering the heart pure' means being purified inwardly, and 'washing the hands in innocence ' being purified outwardly. In the same author,

By what will a young man render his way pure? By guarding himself according to Your Word. Psalms 119:9.

And in the same author,

... You may be pure in Your judging. Psalms 51:4.

For the other word that is used to mean outwardly pure or clean, see Leviticus 11:32; 12:7-8; 13:6, 13, 17, 23, 28, 34, 37, 58; 14:7-9, 20, 48, 53; 15:13, 28; 16:19, 30; 22:7; Jeremiah 13:27; Ezekiel 24:13; 39:12; and elsewhere.

脚注:

1. Thuribula (censers) is derived from thus (frankincense).
