1 Y el SEÑOR habló a Moisés, diciendo:

2 Di a los hijos de Israel que tomen para mí ofrenda; de todo varón que la diere de su voluntad, de corazón, tomaréis mi ofrenda.

3 Y ésta será la ofrenda que tomaréis de ellos: Oro, y plata, y cobre,

4 y cárdeno, y púrpura, y carmesí, y lino fino, y pelo de cabras,

5 y cueros de carneros teñidos de rojo, y cueros de tejones, y madera de cedro;

6 aceite para la luminaria, especias para el aceite de la unción, y para el sahumerio aromático;

7 piedras de onix, y piedras de engastes, para el efod, y para el pectoral.

8 Y me harán un santuario, y yo habitaré entre ellos.

9 Conforme a todo lo que yo te mostrare, la semejanza del tabernáculo, y la semejanza de todos sus vasos, así lo haréis.

10 Harán también un arca de madera de cedro, cuya longitud será de dos codos y medio, y su anchura de codo y medio, y su altura de codo y medio.

11 Y la cubrirás de oro puro; por dentro y por fuera la cubrirás; y harás sobre ella una corona de oro alrededor.

12 Y para ella harás de fundición cuatro anillos de oro, que pondrás a sus cuatro esquinas; dos anillos a un lado de ella, y dos anillos al otro lado.

13 Y harás unas varas de madera de cedro, las cuales cubrirás de oro.

14 Y meterás las varas por los anillos a los lados del arca, para llevar el arca con ellas.

15 Las varas se estarán en los anillos del arca; no se quitarán de ella.

16 Y pondrás en el arca el testimonio que yo te daré.

17 Y harás una cubierta de oro fino, cuya longitud será de dos codos y medio, y su anchura de codo y medio.

18 Harás también dos querubines de oro, labrados a martillo los harás, en los dos cabos de la cubierta.

19 Harás, pues, un querubín al extremo de un lado, y un querubín al otro extremo del lado opuesto; harás los querubines en sus dos extremidades.

20 Y los querubines extenderán por encima las dos alas, cubriendo con sus alas la cubierta; sus caras la una enfrente de la otra, mirando a la cubierta las caras de los querubines.

21 Y pondrás la cubierta sobre el arca, y en el arca pondrás el testimonio que yo te daré.

22 Y de allí me testificaré a ti, y hablaré contigo de sobre la cubierta, de entre los dos querubines que estarán sobre el arca del testimonio, todo lo que yo te mandaré para los hijos de Israel.

23 Harás asimismo una mesa de madera de cedro: su longitud será de dos codos, y de un codo su anchura, y su altura de codo y medio.

24 Y la cubrirás de oro puro, y le harás una corona de oro alrededor.

25 Le harás también una moldura alrededor, del ancho de una mano, a la moldura harás una corona de oro en circunferencia.

26 Y le harás cuatro anillos de oro, los cuales pondrás a las cuatro esquinas que corresponden a sus cuatro pies.

27 Los anillos estarán antes de la moldura, por lugares para las varas, para llevar la mesa.

28 Y harás las varas de madera de cedro, y las cubrirás de oro, y con ellas será llevada la mesa.

29 Harás también sus platos, y sus cucharas, y sus cubiertas, y sus tazones, con que se cubrirá el pan ; de oro fino los harás.

30 Y pondrás sobre la mesa el pan de la proposición delante de mí continuamente.

31 Harás además un candelero de oro puro; labrado a martillo se hará el candelero: su pie, y su caña, sus copas, sus manzanas, y sus flores, serán de lo mismo;

32 y saldrán seis cañas de sus lados: tres cañas del candelero de un lado, y tres cañas del candelero del otro lado;

33 tres copas en forma de almendras en una caña, una manzana y una flor; y tres copas, en forma de almendras en la otra caña, una manzana y una flor; así pues, en las seis cañas que salen del candelero.

34 Y en el candelero cuatro copas en forma de almendras, sus manzanas y sus flores.

35 Habrá una manzana debajo de las dos cañas, de lo mismo, otra manzana debajo de las otras dos cañas, de lo mismo, otra manzana debajo de las otras dos cañas de lo mismo, en las seis cañas que salen del candelero.

36 Sus manzanas y sus cañas serán de lo mismo, todo ello una pieza labrada a martillo, de oro puro.

37 Y le harás siete candilejas, las cuales le pondrás encima para que alumbren a la parte de su delantera.

38 También sus despabiladeras y sus platillos, de oro puro.

39 De un talento de oro fino lo harás, con todos estos vasos.

40 Y mira, y hazlos conforme a su semejanza, que te ha sido mostrado en el monte.

9525. 'Everything that I shall command you for the children of Israel' means the worship of the representative Church. This is clear from the meaning of 'commanding', when done by Jehovah addressing Moses, as those things that belong to worship, for everything that Jehovah commanded Moses for the children of Israel was such as had to do with worship; and from the representation of 'the children of Israel' as the spiritual Church, dealt with in 9340, at this point simply a representation of the spiritual Church, for all the things that had been established among the children of Israel were outward ceremonies that did no more than represent the inner realities of the Church and had nothing of those realities themselves within them. Regarding this see the places referred to at the end of 9320.

Arcana Coelestia#9320

9320. 'For you shall utterly destroy them' means that evils must be completely removed. This is clear from the meaning of 'destroying' - when it has reference to evils and falsities, meant by the nations of the land of Canaan and their gods - as removing. The reason why 'destroying' means removing is that those governed by goodness and truth never destroy those ruled by evil and falsity, but merely move them away. This they do because good, not evil, governs their actions, and good comes from the Lord, who never destroys anyone. Those ruled by evil however and consequently by falsity try to destroy, and so far as they can they do destroy those governed by good. This they do because evil rules their actions. But since, when they try to do so, they make their attack on good which comes from the Lord, thus on what is of God, they destroy themselves, that is, they hurl themselves into damnation and into hell. Such is the law of order. And why it is such, see 4299, 7643, 7679, 7710, 7926, 7989, 8137, 8146, 8265, 8945, 8946.

[2] The reason why the Israelites and Jews were to destroy the nations of the land of Canaan was that they themselves represented spiritual and heavenly realities, while the nations represented hellish and devilish things, which can never exist together with those realities since they are opposites. The reason why they were allowed to destroy the nations was that no Church existed among them, only a representative of the Church, so that the Lord was not present among them either except through things of a representative nature, 4307. For they were interested in outward forms but not their inner substances, that is, in the worship that represented goodness and truth but not goodness and truth themselves. People like this are allowed to destroy, kill, and consign to slaughter and complete destruction. But people who are interested in outward forms and at the same time in their inner substance are not allowed to do those things, since their actions must be governed by good, and good comes from the Lord.

[3] The fact that the Jews and Israelites were such is declared explicitly by Moses,

Do not say in your heart, when Jehovah your God has thrust out the nations before you, Because of my righteousness Jehovah has brought me in to possess this land. It is not because of your righteousness and because of the uprightness of your heart; for you are a stiff-necked people. Deuteronomy 9:4-6.

And elsewhere,

They are a nation from whom counsel has perished, nor is there intelligence in them. From the vine of Sodom comes their vine, and from the fields of Gomorrah; their grapes are grapes of poison, they have clusters of bitterness. The poison of snakes (draco) is their wine, and the cruel poison of asps. Is not this hidden away with Me, sealed up in My treasuries? Deuteronomy 32:28, 32-34.

'The vine' in the internal sense means the Church, 1069, 5113, 6375, 6376, 9277; 'grapes' and 'clusters' mean the internal forms and the external forms of that Church's good, 1071, 5117, 6378; and 'wine' means that Church's internal truth, 1071, 1798, 6377. From this one may see what is meant by the assertions that their vine comes from the vine of Sodom and from the fields of Gomorrah, that their grapes are grapes of poison and clusters of bitterness, and that their wine is the poison of snakes and the cruel poison of asps. The fact that all this was known to Jehovah, that is, to the Lord, is meant by the remarks about its being hidden away with Him and sealed up in His treasuries.

[4] In John,

Jesus said to the Jews, You are from your father the devil, and the desires of your father you will to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and has not stood in the truth. John 8:44.

This is why they are called a wicked and adulterous generation, Matthew 12:39, as well as a brood of vipers, Matthew 3:7; 12:34; 23:33; Luke 3:7. That they were like this is also described by the Lord in His parables in Matthew 21:33-45; Mark 12:1-9; Luke 14:16-24; 20:9ff.

Regarding that nation, that it was the worst nation; that in their worship they were interested in outward forms but not their inner substance; that no Church existed among them, only a representative of the Church; but that nevertheless they were able to represent the internal realities of the Church, see 3398, 3479, 3480, 3732 (end), 3881 (end), 4208, 4281, 4288-4290, 4293, 4307, 4314, 4316, 4317, 4429, 4433, 4444, 4500, 4503, 4680, 4815, 4818, 4820, 4825, 4832, 4837, 4844, 4847, 4865, 4868, 4874, 4899, 4903, 4911-4913, 5057, 5998, 6304, 6832, 6877, 7048, 7051, 7248, 7401, 7439, 8301, 8588, 8788, 8806, 8814, 8819, 8871, 8882, 9284.
