1 나 주 여호와가 말하노라 안 뜰 동향한 문을 일하는 육일 동안에는 닫되 안식일에는 열며 월삭에도 열고

2 왕은 바깥 문 현관을 통하여 들어와서 문 벽 곁에 서고 제사장은 그를 위하여 번제와 감사제를 드릴 것이요 왕은 문통에서 경배한 후에 밖으로 나가고 그 문은 저녁까지 닫지 말 것이며

3 이 땅 백성도 안식일과 월삭에 이 문통에서 나 여호와 앞에 경배할 것이며

4 안식일에 왕이 여호와께 드릴 번제는 흠 없는 어린 양 여섯과 흠없는 수양 하나라

5 그 소제는 수양 하나에는 밀가루 한 에바요 모든 어린 양에는 그 힘대로 할 것이며 밀가루 한 에바에는 기름 한 힌씩이니라

6 월삭에는 흠 없는 수송아지 하나와 어린 양 여섯과 수양 하나를 드리되 모두 흠 없는 것으로 할 것이며

7 또 소제를 갖추되 수송아지에는 밀가루 한 에바요 수양에도 밀가루 한 에바며 모든 어린 양에는 그 힘대로 할 것이요 밀가루 한 에바에는 기름 한 힌씩이며

8 왕이 올 때에는 이 문 현관을 통하여 들어오고 나갈 때에도 그리할지니라

9 그러나 모든 정한 절기에 이 땅 거민이 나 여호와 앞에 나아올 때에는 북문으로 들어와서 경배하는 자는 남문으로 나가고 남문으로 들어오는 자는 북문으로 나갈지라 들어온 문으로 도로 나가지 말고 그 몸이 앞으로 향한대로 나갈지며

10 왕은 무리 가운데 있어서 그들의 들어올 때에 들어오고 그들의 나갈 때에 나갈지니라

11 절기와 성회 때에 그 소제는 수송아지 하나에 밀가루 한 에바요 수양 하나에도 한 에바요 모든 어린 양에는 그 힘대로 할 것이며 밀가루 한 에바에는 기름 한 힌씩이며

12 만일 왕이 자원하여 번제를 갖추거나 혹 자원하여 감사제를 갖추어 나 여호와께 드릴 때에는 그를 위하여 동향한 문을 열고 그가 번제와 감사제를 안식일에 드림 같이 드리고 밖으로 나갈지며 나간 후에 문을 닫을지니라

13 아침마다 일년 되고 흠 없는 어린 양 하나로 번제를 갖추어 나 여호와께 드리고

14 또 아침마다 그것과 함께 드릴 소제를 갖추되 곧 밀가루 에바 육분지 일과 기름 힌 삼분지 일을 섞을 것이니 이는 영원한 규례를 삼아 항상 나 여호와께 드릴 소제라

15 이와 같이 아침마다 그 어린 양과 밀가루와 기름을 갖추어 항상 드리는 번제를 삼을지니라

16 나 주 여호와가 말하노라 왕이 만일 한 아들에게 선물을 준즉 그의 기업이 되어 그 자손에게 속하나니 이는 그 기업을 이어 받음이어니와

17 왕이 만일 그 기업으로 한 종에게 선물로 준즉 그 종에게 속하여 희년까지 이르고 그 후에는 왕에게로 돌아갈 것이니 왕의 기업은 그 아들이 이어 받을 것임이니라

18 왕은 백성의 기업을 취하여 그 산업에서 쫓아내지 못할지니 왕이 자기 아들에게 기업으로 줄 것은 자기 산업으로만 할 것임이니라 백성으로 각각 그 산업을 떠나 흩어지지 않게 할 것이니라

19 그 후에 그가 나를 데리고 문곁 통행구로 말미암아 제사장의 북향한 거룩한 방에 들어가시니 그 방뒤 서편에 한 처소가 있더라

20 그가 내게 이르시되 이는 제사장이 속건제와 속죄제 희생을 삶으며 소제 제물을 구울 처소니 그들이 이 성물을 가지고 바깥 뜰에 나가면 백성을 거룩하게 할까 함이니라 하시고

21 나를 데리고 바깥 뜰로 나가서 나로 뜰 네 구석을 지나가게 하시는데 본즉 그 뜰 매 구석에 또 뜰이 있는데

22 뜰 네 구석에 있는 그 뜰에 담이 둘렸으니 뜰의 장이 사십척이요 광이 삼십척이라 구석의 네 뜰이 한 척수며

23 그 작은 네 뜰 사면으로 돌아가며 부엌이 있고 그 사면 부엌에 삶는 기구가 설비되었었는데

24 그가 내게 이르시되 이는 삶는 부엌이니 전에 수종드는 자가 백성의 제물을 여기서 삶을 것이니라 하시더라

2788. That 'on the third day' means that which has been completed, and the beginning of sanctification, is clear from the meaning of 'the third day'. 'Day' in the Word means state, 23, 487, 488, 493, 893, as also does 'year', and as in general do all periods of time - an hour, day, week, month, year, or age; also morning, midday, evening, and night; and spring, summer, autumn, and winter. And when 'the third' is added to any of these the end of that state, and at the same time the beginning of the next, are meant. Here, the subject being the sanctification of the Lord which was effected by means of temptations, 'the third day' means that which has been completed and at the same time the beginning of sanctification, as also follows from what has been said previously to this. The reason for this meaning is that when He had fulfilled everything the Lord was to rise again on the third day, for the things that were done by the Lord while He lived in the world, that is, the things that were yet to be done by Him, were embodied within the representatives of the Church as though they had already been done. This was as it is with the internal sense of the Word, for with God that which is yet to come to pass and that which already is are one and the same; indeed to Him the whole of eternity is here and now.

[2] This is why the number three was representative not only in the Ancient Church and in the Jewish but also among various gentile nations; see what has been stated about this number in 720, 901, 1825. That such was the origin of the meaning of 'three' is clear in Hosea,

We will return to Jehovah, for He has wounded and will heal us; He has stricken and will bind us up; He will revive us after two days, on the third day He will raise us up that we may live before Him. Hosea 6:1-2.

Here 'the third day' stands for the coming of the Lord and His resurrection. The same is clear from Jonah, in that he was in the stomach of the fish three days and three nights, Jonah 1:17, to which the Lord refers in Matthew as follows,

As Jonah was in the belly of the whale three days and three nights, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth. Matthew 12:40.

[3] It should be realized that in the internal sense of the Word 'three days' and 'the third day' have the same meaning, as also do 'three' and 'third' in the following places: In John,

Jesus said to the Jews, Destroy this temple and in three days I will raise it up. He was speaking of the temple of His body. John 2:19-21; Matthew 26:61; Mark 14:58; 15:29.

It is a well known fact that the Lord rose again on the third day.

[4] For the same reason the Lord also distinguished three periods in His life: in Luke,

Go and tell that fox, Behold, I cast out demons and perform cures today and tomorrow, but on the third day I reach completion. Luke 13:32.

Also, the Lord underwent the final temptation, which was that of the Cross, at the third hour of the day, Mark 15:25. Three hours later, that is, at the sixth hour, darkness fell over the whole land, 1 Luke 23:44. And three hours after that, at the ninth hour, the end came, Mark 15:33-34, 37. But in the morning of the third day He rose again, Mark 16:1-4; Luke 24:7. See also Matthew 16:21; 17:22-23; 20:18-19; Mark 8:31; 9:31; 10:33-34; Luke 18:33; 24:46. From all this, and especially from the Lord's resurrection on the third day, the number three was representative and possessed a spiritual meaning. This fact becomes clear from the following places in the Word:

When Jehovah came down upon Mount Sinai He told Moses that he was to sanctify the people today and tomorrow and they were to wash their garments and be ready on the third day, for on the third day Jehovah would come down. Exodus 19:10-11, 15-16.

When they travelled from the mountain of Jehovah on a three days' journey, the Ark of Jehovah travelled before them on the three days' journey to search out rest for them. Numbers 10:33.

There was thick darkness for three days in all the land of Egypt, and nobody could see his brother for three days, but the children of Israel had light. Exodus 10:22-23.

[5] The flesh of a sacrifice made as a vow-offering or as a freewill-offering was to be eaten on the first and the second day; nothing was to be kept until the third day but was to be burned, because it was an abomination. So too with the flesh of a sacrifice made as a 'eucharistic' offering; if this was eaten on the third day the one offering the sacrifice would not be accepted and that soul would bear his iniquity. Leviticus 7:16-18; 19:6-7.

Anyone who touched a dead body was to purify himself on the third day, and on the seventh day he would be clean. If he did not do so that soul would be cut off from Israel. And one that was clean was to sprinkle water over the unclean person on the third day and on the seventh day. Numbers 19:12-13, 19.

Those who had killed someone in battle and had touched one who had been slain were to purify themselves on the third day and on the seventh day. Numbers 31:19.

[6] When they came into the land of Canaan the fruit of a tree was to be uncircumcised for three years and not eaten. Leviticus 19:23.

At the end of three years they were to bring every tenth part of their produce in that year and deposit it within their gates so that the Levite, the sojourner, the orphan, and the widow might eat. Deuteronomy 14:28-29; 26:12.

Three times a year they were to keep a feast to Jehovah. And three times a year every male person was to appear before the face of the Lord Jehovah. Exodus 23:14, 17; Deuteronomy 16:16.

Joshua told the people that in three days they would be crossing the Jordan and inheriting the land. Joshua 1:11; 3:2.

Jehovah called to Samuel three times and the third time he answered Him. 1 Samuel 3:8.

[7] When Saul wished to kill David, David hid in the field until the third evening. Jonathan told David, I will sound out my father on the third day from now. Jonathan said that he would shoot three arrows to the side of the stone. And David fell face to the ground, before Jonathan and bowed down three times.12, 19, 20, 35, 36, 41.

David was to choose one of these three things - either seven years of famine in the land, or his own flight before his enemies for three months, or pestilence in the land for three days. 2 Samuel 24:12-13.

[8] There was a famine in the days of David for three years, year after year. 2 Samuel 21:1.

Elijah stretched himself over the dead boy three times and revived him. 1 Kings 17:21.

When he had built the altar to Jehovah, Elijah told them to pour water over the burnt offering and over the wood three times. 1 Kings 18:34.

Fire consumed the captains of fifty sent on two occasions to Elijah, but not the one sent on the third occasion. 2 Kings 1:13-14.

It was a sign to King Hezekiah that they were to eat in that year what had grown of itself, and in the second year further growth from the same; but in the third year they were to sow, reap, plant vineyards, and eat the fruit of these. 2 Kings 19:29.

[9] Daniel went into his house and had the windows open in his [upper] chamber towards Jerusalem, where three times a day he gave thanks on his knees and prayed. Daniel 6:10, 13.

Daniel was mourning for three whole weeks, not eating pleasant bread, nor drinking wine, nor anointing himself, until the three whole weeks were completed. Daniel 10:2-3.

Isaiah went naked and barefoot three years as a sign and a portent against Egypt and against Cush. Isaiah 20:3.

Out of the Lampstand went three branches on either side, and three almond-shaped cups on each branch. Exodus 25:32-33.

In the Urim and Thummim there were three precious stones in each row. Exodus 28:17-20.

[10] In the New Temple there were to be three chambers on this side of the gate and three on that, and all three were to measure the same. And the breadth of the gate to the vestibule of the house was to be three cubits this way and three cubits that. Ezekiel 40:10, 21, 48.

In the New Jerusalem there were to be three gates to the north, three to the east, three to the south, and three to the west. Ezekiel 48:31-34; Revelation 21:13.

The same may be seen in the following places:

Peter denied Jesus three times. Matthew 26:34, 69 and following verses.

The Lord said to Peter three times, Do you love Me? John 21:17.

Also, in the parable about the man who planted a vineyard, he sent servants three times, and at length his own son. Luke 20:12; Mark 12:2, 4-6.

The labourers in the vineyard were hired at the third hour, the sixth hour, the ninth hour, and the eleventh hour. Matthew 20:1-17.

And concerning the fig tree which, because it bore no fruit for three years, was to be cut down. Luke 13:6-7.

[11] Just as a group of three and a third one were representative, so also was a third part, as in the following:

Minchahs consisted of two tenths of fine flour mixed with a third part of a hin of oil, and the wine for the drink-offering was a third of a hin. Numbers 15:6-7; Ezekiel 46:14.

In Ezekiel it is said that he was to run a razor over his head and over his beard, and then to divide his hair, burning a third part in the fire, striking a third around the city with his sword, and scattering a third to the wind. Ezekiel 5:1-2, 11.

In Zechariah it is said that in the whole land, two parts were to be cut off, and the third would be left. Yet this third would be led through fire and tested. Zechariah 13:8-9.

[12] In John it is said that when the first angel sounded there came hail, and fire mixed with blood; and it fell on to the earth so that a third part of the trees were burned. The second angel sounded and so to speak a great mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea. And a third part of the sea became blood resulting in the death of a third part of the creatures who had their being in the sea. And a third part of the ships was destroyed. The third angel sounded and there fell from the sky a great star burning like a torch and it fell upon a third part of the rivers. The name of the star is Wormwood. The fourth angel sounded and a third part of the sun was struck, and a third part of the moon, and a third part of the stars, so that a third part of these was blacked out, and the day had no light for a third part of it, nor likewise the night. Revelation 8:7-12.

[13] The four angels were released to kill a third part of mankind. Revelation 9:15.

A third part of mankind was killed by these three, fire, smoke, and brimstone, which went forth out of the mouths of the horses. Revelation 9:18.

The dragon drew with his tail a third part of the stars of heaven and cast them down to the earth. Revelation 12:4.

'A third part' however means something which is not yet finished, whereas 'a third' and 'a group of three' mean that which has been finished - evil in the case of the evil, good in the case of the good.
