学习

   

1 Harás allegar a ti a Aarón tu hermano, y a sus hijos consigo, de entre los hijos de Israel, para que sean mis sacerdotes; a Aarón, Nadab y Abiú, Eleazar e Itamar, hijos de Aarón.

2 Y harás vestidos santos para Aarón tu hermano, para honra y hermosura.

3 Y tú hablarás a todos los sabios de corazón, a quienes yo he llenado de Espíritu de sabiduría; para que hagan los vestidos de Aarón, para santificarle para que sea mi sacerdote.

4 Los vestidos que harán serán estos: el pectoral, el efod, el manto, la túnica bordada, la mitra, y el cinturón. Hagan, pues, los santos vestidos a Aarón tu hermano, y a sus hijos, para que sean mis sacerdotes.

5 Los cuales tomarán oro, y cárdeno, y púrpura, y carmesí, y lino fino,

6 y harán el efod de oro y cárdeno, y púrpura, y carmesí, y lino torcido de obra de bordador.

7 Tendrá dos hombreras que se junten a sus dos lados, y así se juntará.

8 Y el artificio de su cinto que estará sobre él, será de su misma obra, de lo mismo; de oro, cárdeno, y púrpura, y carmesí, y lino torcido.

9 Y tomarás dos piedras de ónice, y grabarás en ellas los nombres de los hijos de Israel:

10 Los seis nombres en una piedra, y los otros seis nombres en la otra piedra, conforme al nacimiento de ellos.

11 De obra de grabador en piedra a modo de grabaduras de sello, harás grabar aquellas dos piedras con los nombres de los hijos de Israel; les harás alrededor engastes de oro.

12 Y pondrás aquellas dos piedras sobre los hombros del efod, serán piedras de memoria a los hijos de Israel; y Aarón llevará los nombres de ellos delante del SEÑOR en sus dos hombros por memoria.

13 Y harás los engastes de oro,

14 y dos cadenillas de oro fino; las cuales harás de hechura de trenza; y fijarás las cadenas de hechura de trenza en los engastes.

15 Harás asimismo el pectoral del juicio de primorosa obra, le has de hacer conforme a la obra del efod, de oro, y cárdeno, y púrpura, y carmesí, y lino torcido.

16 Será cuadrado y doble, de un palmo de largo y un palmo de ancho;

17 y lo llenarás de pedrería con cuatro órdenes de piedras. El orden: un rubí, una esmeralda, y una crisólita, será el primer orden;

18 El segundo orden, un carbunclo, un zafiro, y un diamante;

19 el tercer orden, un topacio, una turquesa, y una amatista;

20 y el cuarto orden, un tarsis (o berilo ), un onix, y un jaspe; estarán engastadas en oro en sus encajes.

21 Y serán aquellas piedras según los nombres de los hijos de Israel, doce según sus nombres; como grabaduras de sello cada una según su nombre, serán a las doce tribus.

22 Harás también en el pectoral cadenetas de hechura de trenzas de oro fino.

23 Y harás en el pectoral dos anillos de oro, los cuales pondrás a los dos extremos del pectoral.

24 Y pondrás las dos trenzas de oro en los dos anillos a los dos extremos del pectoral;

25 y pondrás los dos extremos de las dos trenzas sobre los dos engastes, y las pondrás a los lados del efod en la parte delantera.

26 Harás también dos anillos de oro, los cuales pondrás a los dos extremos del pectoral, en su orilla que está al lado del efod de la parte de adentro.

27 Harás asimismo dos anillos de oro, los cuales pondrás a los dos lados del efod abajo en la parte delantera, delante de su juntura sobre el cinto del efod.

28 Y juntarán el pectoral con sus anillos a los anillos del efod con un cordón de cárdeno, para que esté sobre el cinto del efod, y no se aparte el pectoral del efod.

29 Y llevará Aarón los nombres de los hijos de Israel en el pectoral del juicio sobre su corazón, cuando entrare en el santuario, en memoria delante del SEÑOR continuamente.

30 Y pondrás en el pectoral del juicio Urim y Tumim, para que estén sobre el corazón de Aarón cuando entrare delante del SEÑOR; y llevará siempre Aarón el juicio de los hijos de Israel sobre su corazón delante del SEÑOR.

31 Harás el manto del efod todo de cárdeno.

32 Y tendrá el collar de su cabeza en medio de él, el cual tendrá un borde alrededor de obra de tejedor, como un collar de un coselete, para que no se rompa.

33 Y harás en sus orladuras granadas de cárdeno, y púrpura, y carmesí, por sus orladuras alrededor; y entre ellas campanillas de oro alrededor.

34 Una campanilla de oro y una granada, otra campanilla de oro y otra granada, por las orladuras del manto alrededor.

35 Y estará sobre Aarón cuando ministrare; y se oirá su sonido cuando él entrare en el santuario delante del SEÑOR y cuando saliere; para que no muera.

36 Harás además una plancha de oro fino, y grabarás en ella grabadura de sello, SANTIDAD AL SEÑOR.

37 Y la pondrás con un cordón cárdeno, y estará sobre la mitra; por la parte delantera de la mitra estará.

38 Y estará sobre la frente de Aarón; y Aarón llevará el pecado de las santificaciones, que los hijos de Israel santificaren en todas las ofrendas de sus santificaciones; y sobre su frente estará continuamente para que hallen gracia delante del SEÑOR.

39 Y bordarás una túnica de lino, y harás una mitra de lino; harás también un cinto de obra de recamador.

40 Y para los hijos de Aarón harás túnicas; también les harás cintos, y les formarás chapeos tiaras para honra y hermosura.

41 Y con ellos vestirás a Aarón tu hermano, y a sus hijos con él; y los ungirás, y llenarás sus manos, y santificarás, para que sean mis sacerdotes.

42 Y les harás calzoncillos de lino para cubrir la carne vergonzosa; serán desde los lomos hasta los muslos:

43 Y estarán sobre Aarón y sobre sus hijos cuando entraren en el tabernáculo del testimonio, o cuando se llegaren al altar para servir en el santuario, para que no lleven pecado, y mueran. Estatuto perpetuo para él, y para su simiente después de él.

9857. 'And you shall make a breastplate of judgement' means that which has regard to Divine Truth shining forth from Divine Good. This is clear from the meaning of 'a breastplate' as Divine Truth shining forth from the Lord's Divine Good within last and lowest things, dealt with in 9823. It is called 'a breastplate of judgement' because it gave answers, and through these Divine Truth was revealed; furthermore Divine Truth, and therefore doctrinal teachings and a life in accord with them, is meant in the Word by 'judgement'. This then is why this breastplate is referred to as 'the breastplate of judgement', and also further on in this chapter as 'the judgement', in verse 30 - 'Aaron shall carry the judgement of the children of Israel over his heart before Jehovah continually'. And when Joshua was chosen to be leader of the people, it says that he was to stand before Eleazar the priest, who would inquire for him by the judgement of the Urim before Jehovah, Numbers 27:21.

[2] 'Judgement' means Divine Truth and intelligence springing from It, as a consequence of which it means religious teachings and a life in accord with them. This is clear from a large number of places in the Word, such as the following: In Isaiah,

The vineyard of Jehovah Zebaoth is the house of Israel. He looked for judgement, but behold, festering; for righteousness, but behold, a cry. Isaiah 5:7.

'Looking for judgement' means intelligence springing from Divine Truth, and a life in accord with the commandments. In the same prophet,

On the throne there sat in truthfulness, in the tabernacle of David, one who judges and seeks judgement. Isaiah 16:5.

This refers to the Lord's Coming. 'The throne' on which He is going to sit means Divine Truth that emanates from Him, and consequently means the spiritual kingdom, see 2129, 5313, 6397, 8625, 9039. 'Judging judgement' means teaching Divine Truth, and 'seeking judgement' people's acceptance of it.

[3] In the same prophet,

On that day Jehovah will be a tiara of beauty for the remnant of His people, and a spirit of judgement to him who sits in judgement. Isaiah 28:5-6.

'A tiara of beauty', when these words have reference to Jehovah, that is, the Lord, means Divine Intelligence, see above in 9827; and 'a spirit of judgement' means wisdom that springs from Divine Truth, 9818. 'To him who sits in judgement' means one who informs people about or teaches Divine Truth. In the same prophet,

Jehovah has filled Zion with judgement and righteousness. Isaiah 33:5.

'Zion' stands for the celestial Church, 'being filled with judgement' for intelligence that springs from Divine Truth, and 'being filled with righteousness' for wisdom that comes from Divine Good.

[4] In the same prophet,

Who has directed the Spirit of Jehovah? With whom did He deliberate, that He might make Him intelligent, and instruct Him in the way of judgement, and teach Him knowledge, and show Him the way of intelligence? Isaiah 40:13-14.

'The Spirit of Jehovah' means Divine Truth, 9818. 'Instructing Him in the way of judgement' self-evidently means making him knowledgeable, intelligent, and wise. In Jeremiah,

The stork in the sky knows her appointed times, but Jehovah's people do not know the judgement of Jehovah. How can you say, We are wise, and the law of Jehovah is with us? Jeremiah 8:7-8.

'Not knowing the judgement of Jehovah' stands for ignorance of Divine Truth, the source of wisdom; and this is why it says, 'How can you say, We are wise?'

[5] In the same prophet,

Woe to him who builds his house without righteousness, and his upper rooms without judgement! Jeremiah 22:13.

'Building upper rooms without judgement' stands for absorbing ideas that are not true. In Hosea,

I will betroth you to Me forever in righteousness and in judgement, and I will betroth you to Me in truth. Hosea 2:19-20.

'Betrothing in judgement' stands for joining by means of Divine Truth, thus by means of faith and the life of faith. In Amos,

Let judgement flow like water, and righteousness like a mighty torrent. Amos 5:24.

In the same prophet,

You have turned judgement into poison and the fruit of righteousness into wormwood. Amos 6:12.

Here also 'judgement' stands for intelligence that springs from Divine Truth, and for a life based on this.

[6] In Zephaniah,

Jehovah in the morning will bring His judgement to light. Zephaniah 3:5.

'Bringing judgement to light' stands for revealing Divine Truth. In Moses,

All the ways of Jehovah are judgement. Deuteronomy 32:4.

In David,

O Jehovah, Your truth reaches up to the skies, Your righteousness is like the mountains of God, Your judgements [like] the great abyss. Psalms 36:5-6.

In the same author,

Jehovah will bring forth your righteousness as the light, and your judgement as the noonday. Psalms 37:6.

In the same author,

Hear my voice according to Your mercy; O Jehovah, revive me according to Your judgements. Psalms 119:149.

In these places 'judgement' and 'judgements' stand for Divine Truth.

[7] In Luke,

Woe to you Pharisees! You pass by the judgement and the love of God. These you ought to have done. Luke 11:42.

'Passing by the judgement of God' stands for shunning Divine Truth, and 'passing by the love of God' for shunning Divine Good and a life inspired by them both. The fact that this life is also meant accounts for their being told, These you ought to have done. In Isaiah,

Jehovah Zebaoth will be exalted in judgement, and God will be made holy in righteousness. Isaiah 5:16.

In the same author,

... upon the throne of David to establish the kingdom in judgement and in righteousness, from now and even for evermore. Isaiah 9:7.

In the same author,

Give counsel, execute judgement, set your shade like the night in the middle of the day. Isaiah 16:3.

'Executing judgement' stands for acting in accordance with God's truth.

[8] In Jeremiah,

I will raise up for David a righteous branch, who will execute judgement and righteousness in the land. Jeremiah 23:5; 33:15.

In Ezekiel,

If a man has been righteous, one who has executed judgement and righteousness ... [if he] walks in My statutes, and keeps My judgements, to execute truth, he is righteous; he will surely live. Ezekiel 18:5, 9.

In Zephaniah,

Seek Jehovah, O all the meek of the earth, who have executed His judgement. Zephaniah 2:3.

'Executing God's judgement' stands for carrying out Divine Truth or acting in accord with it. In Isaiah,

I have put My Spirit upon Him; He will bring forth judgement to the nations. He will not quench nor will He break until He has set judgement on the earth. Isaiah 42:1, 4.

This refers to the Lord. 'Bringing forth judgement to the nations' and 'setting judgement on the earth' stand for teaching Divine Truth and establishing it in the Church.

[9] In the same prophet,

Law will go out from Me, and I will raise up My judgement to be the light of peoples. Isaiah 51:4.

'Judgement' stands for Divine Truth, 'to be the light of peoples' for to bring enlightenment. In John,

For judgement I came 1 into this world, that those who do not see may see, but those who see may become blind. John 9:39.

'Coming into the world for judgement' stands for coming to reveal Divine Truth, which gives people vision if the Lord is the source of their wisdom, but makes them blind if they themselves are the source of it and on account of this are reputed to be learned.

[10] In Jeremiah,

Swear by the living Jehovah, in truth, in judgement, and in righteousness. Jeremiah 4:2.

In the same prophet,

There is none judging judgement for healthiness; you have no restorative medicaments. Jeremiah 30:13.

In David,

Righteousness and judgement are the support of Your throne; mercy and truth will stand firm before Your face. Psalms 89:14.

'Righteousness' stands for the good that belongs to mercy, and 'judgement' for the truth that belongs to faith, which is why the expression 'mercy and truth' is also used. In Ezekiel,

Jerusalem has changed My judgements into wickedness more than the nations, and My statutes more than the lands. Therefore I will execute in you [My] judgements in the eyes of the nations, and I will scatter all your remnant. Ezekiel 5:6-8, 10, 15.

'Changing judgements' stands for altering truths as they exist in the civic state, these truths being meant by 'judgements' when 'statutes' are also mentioned, see 8972. But 'executing judgements' means passing judgement that points to death, which is damnation, or to life, which is salvation. Salvation or damnation is also meant by 'judgement' when the expression 'day of judgement' or 'hour of judgement' is used, for example in Matthew 11:22, 24; 12:36, 41-42; Luke 10:14; 11:31-32; John 5:28-29; Revelation 14:7; 18:10. The same thing is also meant by 'judgement' when judgement-making is referred to, for example in Matthew 5:21-22; 7:1-2; 23:14, 33; John 5:24, 26-27; 7:24; 8:15-16; 12:31, 47-48; Luke 6:37; 12:13-14, 56-57; 19:21-22; 20:47; 22:30; Mark 12:40; Isaiah 3:14; 41:1; Jeremiah 25:31; 48:21; Joel 3:12; Psalms 7:7-8; 9:4, 7-8; Leviticus 19:15; Deuteronomy 1:16-17; 25:1; Revelation 17:1; 18:10; 20:12-13.
