学习

   

1 At sa kayong bughaw, at kulay-ube, at pula, ay gumawa sila ng mga kasuutang mainam ang pagkayari upang gamitin sa pangangasiwa sa dakong banal, at ginawang mga banal na kasuutan kay Aaron; gaya ng iniutos ng Panginoon kay Moises.

2 At kaniyang ginawa ang epod na ginto, na kayong bughaw, at kulay-ube, at pula, at linong pinili.

3 At kanilang pinukpok ang ginto na pinanipis na pahaba at pinutol na ginawang kawad na ginto, upang itahi sa kayong bughaw, at sa kulay-ube, at sa pula, at sa lino na gawa ng bihasang manggagawa.

4 Kanilang iginawa ng mga pangbalikat, na nagkakasugpong: sa dalawang dulo ay nagkakasugpong.

5 At ang mainam na pagkayaring pamigkis, na nasa ibabaw ng epod upang ibigkis, ay kaputol at gaya ng pagkayari ng epod; na ginto, at kayong bughaw, at kulay-ube, at pula, linong pinili; gaya ng iniutos ng Panginoon kay Moises.

6 At kanilang ginawa ang mga batong onix na pinamutihan ng kalupkop na ginto, na ayos ukit ng isang panatak, ayon sa mga pangalan ng mga anak ni Israel.

7 At kaniyang inilagay sa ibabaw ng pangbalikat ng epod upang maging mga batong pinakaalaala sa ikagagaling ng mga anak ni Israel; gaya ng iniutos ng Panginoon kay Moises.

8 At kaniyang ginawa ang pektoral, na gawa ng bihasang manggagawa, gaya ng pagkayari ng epod; na ginto, at kayong bughaw, at kulay-ube, at pula, at linong pinili.

9 Parisukat; kanilang ginawang nakatiklop ang pektoral: isang dangkal ang luwang niyaon, pagka nakatiklop.

10 At kanilang kinalupkupan ng apat na hanay na sarisaring bato: isang hanay ay sardio, topacio, at karbungko na siyang unang hanay.

11 At ang ikalawang hanay, ay isang esmeralda, isang zafiro, at isang diamante.

12 At ang ikatlong hanay, ay isang jacinto, isang agata, at isang ametista.

13 At ang ikaapat na hanay ay isang berilo, isang onix, at isang jaspe; na mga natatakpan ng mga pamuting ginto sa kanilang mga pagkakakalupkop.

14 At ang mga bato ay ayon sa mga pangalan ng mga anak ni Israel, labingdalawa, ayon sa kanilang mga pangalan; na ayos ukit ng isang panatak; bawa't isa'y ayon sa kaniyang pangalan, na ukol sa labingdalawang lipi.

15 At kanilang iginawa ang pektoral ng mga tanikalang parang tirintas na ayos pinili na taganas na ginto.

16 At sila'y gumawa ng dalawang pangkalupkop na ginto, at ng dalawang singsing na ginto; at inilagay ang dalawang singsing sa dalawang dulo ng pektoral.

17 At kanilang ikinabit ang dalawang tanikalang pinili na ginto sa dalawang singsing sa mga sulok ng pektoral.

18 At ang ibang dalawang dulo ng dalawang tanikalang ayos singsing ay kanilang ikinabit sa dalawang pangkalupkop, at mga ikinabit sa mga pangbalikat ng epod sa dakong harapan niyaon.

19 At sila'y gumawa ng ibang dalawang singsing na ginto, at mga inilagay sa dalawang sulok ng pektoral sa gilid niyaon, na nasa dakong kabaligtaran ng epod.

20 At sila'y gumawa ng dalawang singsing na ginto, at mga ikinabit sa dalawang pangbalikat ng epod sa dakong ibaba, sa may harapan, na malapit sa pagkakasugpong, sa ibabaw ng mainam na pagkayaring pamigkis ng epod.

21 At kanilang itinali ang pektoral sa pamamagitan ng mga singsing, sa mga singsing ng epod ng isang panaling bughaw upang mamalagi sa ibabaw ng mainam na pagkayaring pamigkis ng epod; gaya ng iniutos ng Panginoon kay Moises.

22 At kaniyang ginawa ang balabal ng epod na yari ng manghahabi, na taganas na bughaw;

23 At ang butas ng balabal ay nasa gitna niyaon na gaya ng leeg ng isang koselete, na may isang uriang tinahi sa palibot ng pinakaleeg upang huwag mapunit.

24 At kanilang ginawan ang mga ribete ng balabal ng mga granadang kayong bughaw, at kulay-ube, at pula, at linong pinili.

25 At sila'y gumawa ng mga kampanilyang taganas na ginto, at inilagay ang mga kampanilya sa pagitan ng mga granada sa ibabaw ng ribete ng balabal sa palibot, sa pagitan ng mga granada;

26 Isang kampanilya at isang granada, isang kampanilya at isang granada, sa ibabaw ng ribete ng balabal sa palibot, upang ipangasiwa gaya ng iniutos ng Panginoon kay Moises.

27 At kanilang ginawa ang mga tunika na lino na yaring hinabi para kay Aaron, at sa kaniyang mga anak,

28 At ang mitra na lino, at ang mga mainam na tiara na lino, at ang mga salawal na lino na kayong pinili na lino,

29 At ang bigkis na linong pinili, at kayong bughaw at kulay-ube, at pula, na gawa ng mangbuburda; gaya ng iniutos ng Panginoon kay Moises.

30 At kanilang ginawa ang lamina ng banal na korona na taganas na ginto, at sinulatan ng isang titik na ayos ukit ng isang panatak, Banal sa Panginoon.

31 At kanilang tinalian ng isang panaling bughaw, upang ilapat sa ibabaw ng mitra; gaya ng iniutos ng Panginoon kay Moises.

32 Gayon natapos ang buong gawa sa tabernakulo ng kapisanan: at ginawa ng mga anak ni Israel ayon sa buong iniutos ng Panginoon kay Moises: gayon ginawa nila.

33 At kanilang dinala ang tabernakulo kay Moises, ang Tolda at ang lahat ng mga kasangkapan niyaon, ang mga kawit, ang mga tabla, ang mga barakilan, at ang mga haligi, at ang mga tungtungan;

34 At ang takip na mga balat ng mga tupa na tinina sa pula, at ang takip na balat ng mga poka, at ang lambong ng tabing;

35 Ang kaban ng patotoo at ang mga pingga niyaon, at ang luklukan ng awa;

36 Ang dulang, lahat ng mga sisidlan niyaon, at ang tinapay na handog;

37 Ang dalisay na kandelero, ang mga ilawan niyaon, ang mga ilawan na inayos, at lahat ng mga sisidlan niyaon, at ang langis na pangilawan;

38 At ang dambanang ginto, at ang langis na pangpahid, ang mabangong kamangyan, at ang tabing na gamit sa pintuan ng Tolda;

39 Ang dambanang tanso, at ang pinakasalang tanso, ang mga pingga at ang lahat ng mga sisidlan niyaon, ang hugasan at ang tungtungan;

40 Ang mga tabing ng looban, ang mga haligi, at ang mga tungtungan at ang tabing na pangpintuang-daan ng looban, ang mga panali, at ang mga tulos, at lahat ng mga kasangkapan sa paglilingkod sa tabernakulo, na gamit sa tabernakulo ng kapisanan;

41 Ang maiinam na pagkayaring kasuutan na gamit sa pangangasiwa sa dakong banal, at ang mga banal na kasuutan para kay Aaron na saserdote, at ang mga kasuutan ng kaniyang mga anak, upang mangasiwa sa katungkulang saserdote.

42 Ayon sa lahat na iniutos ng Panginoon kay Moises, ay gayon ginawa ng mga anak ni Israel ang lahat ng gawa.

43 At nakita ni Moises ang lahat ng gawain, at, narito, kanilang nagawa na kung paanong iniutos ng Panginoon ay gayon nila ginawa: at pinagbabasbasan ni Moises.

9930. 'And you shall make a plate of pure gold' means enlightenment received from the Lord's Divine Good. This is clear from the meaning of 'a plate' as enlightenment; and from the meaning of 'gold' as the good of love, at this point the Lord's Divine Good since 'Holiness to Jehovah' was inscribed on the plate. For the meaning of 'gold' as the good of love, see 113, 1551, 1552, 5658, 6914, 6917, 8932, 9490, 9510, 9874, 9881. 'A plate' means enlightenment on account of its brightness, for light shone from the gold on Aaron's forehead, and all brightness is a sign of enlightenment, as that in the heavens is which radiates from the Lord as the Sun. Enlightenment there consists in wisdom and intelligence derived from Divine Truth emanating from the Lord; for this Truth brings light to the interiors of those who are there. Their interiors answer to the understanding part of a person's mind, which is enlightened by the Lord when the person has a perception of the Church's and heaven's truth and goodness, the understanding being the subject that receives; for there is no reception without a subject. 1 The reason why 'the plate' means enlightenment from the Lord's Divine Good is that 'Holiness to Jehovah' was inscribed on it, and it was placed on the front of the turban which was on Aaron's head. Holiness which comes from Jehovah is Divine Truth emanating from the Lord's Divine Good, 6788, 8302, 8330, 9229, 9680, 9820. In order to represent the radiance or enlightenment that result in intelligence and wisdom the plate was tied to the front of the turban.

[2] Since 'the plate' meant enlightenment received from the Lord's Divine Good it was also called 'the plate of the crown of holiness' as well as 'the crown of holiness'; for a crown is a representative sign of Divine Good, and holiness is the Divine Truth emanating from that Good, as has been stated above. The fact that it was called the plate of the crown of holiness is evident further on in this Book of Exodus,

Finally they made the plate of the crown of holiness from pure gold; and they wrote an inscription on it, like the engraving of a signet, 2 Holiness to Jehovah. Exodus 39:30.

The fact that it was also called the crown of holiness is evident elsewhere in Exodus,

You shall place the turban on his head, and put the crown of holiness onto the turban. Exodus 29:6.

And in Leviticus,

He placed the turban on his head, and placed on the turban, on the front of it, 3 the plate of gold, the crown of holiness. Leviticus 8:9.

[3] The fact that the crown represented Divine Good from which Divine Truth emanates is clear from the crowns that the kings wore. For the kings represented the Lord in respect of Divine Truth, see 2015, 2069, 3009, 4581, 4966, 5044, 5068, 6148, and this was why they wore a crown on their head and held a sceptre in their hand, government animated by Divine Good being meant by the crown, and government inspired by Divine Truth by the sceptre.

[4] This meaning of 'the crown' is clear from the following places: In David,

I will make the horn of David to spring forth, I will make ready a lamp for My Anointed. His enemies I will clothe with shame, but upon Himself His crown will flourish. Psalms 132:17-18.

'David' here is the Lord, 1888, as is 'the Anointed', 3008, 3009. His 'horn' is power, 2832, 9081; 'lamp' is Divine Truth, which is the source of intelligence, 9548, 9783; 'crown' is Divine Good, which is the source of wisdom and also the mainspring of His government. It says that His crown, meaning wisdom, is going 'to flourish' on account of what He acquired to Himself in the world, to His Humanity, through conflicts with and victories over the hells, 8273, 9528 (end), the hells being His enemies who will be clothed with shame.

[5] In the same author,

You are angry 4 with Your Anointed, You have condemned His crown right down to the ground. 5 Psalms 89:38-39.

Here also 'the Anointed' stands for the Lord. 'Anger' stands for a state involving temptations, which was a state when He was engaged in conflicts with the hells. An expression of grief in that state is what the anger and condemnation describe (a final phase of temptation seems like condemnation), such as with the Lord's last grievous cry on the Cross that He was forsaken. For the Cross was the last of His temptations or conflicts with the hells; and after that last temptation He took on Divine Good, and in so doing united His Divine Human to Deity itself, which was within Him.

[6] In Isaiah,

On that day Jehovah Zebaoth will be a crown of adornment and a turban of beauty for the remnant of His people. Isaiah 28:5.

'A crown of adornment' stands for wisdom, which is a discernment of good from God, and 'a turban of beauty' for intelligence, which is an understanding of truth from that good. What is stated in this verse has regard to things among the people which were Divine, 'people' meaning the Church since they were where the Church existed.

[7] In the same prophet,

For Zion's sake I will not keep silent, and for Jerusalem's sake I will not rest, until her righteousness goes forth as brightness, and her salvation as a lamp [that] burns. And you will be a crown of beauty in the hand of Jehovah, and a royal turban in the hand of your God. Isaiah 62:1, 3.

'Zion' and 'Jerusalem' are used to mean the Church, 'Zion' the celestial Church, and 'Jerusalem' the spiritual Church that extends from it. 'A crown of beauty' is wisdom, which is a discernment of good, and 'a royal turban' is intelligence, which is an understanding of truth. And since 'a crown' means wisdom, or discernment of good, it is said to be 'in the hand of Jehovah'; and since 'a turban' means intelligence, or an understanding of truth, it is said to be 'in the hand of God'. For when the subject is good the name 'Jehovah' is used, and when it is truth the name 'God' is used, 2586, 2769, 6905.

[8] In Jeremiah,

Say to the king and queen mother, 6 Lower yourselves, sit down, for the adornment of your head, the crown of your beauty, has come down. Jeremiah 13:18.

'The crown of beauty' stands for wisdom which is a discernment of good derived from Divine Truth; for 'beauty' is the Church's Divine Truth, 9815. In the same prophet,

The joy of our heart has ceased, our dance has been turned into mourning. The crown of our head has fallen. Lamentations 5:15-16.

'Crown of the head' stands for wisdom which those who belong to the Church derive from Divine Truth, which sets them above all other peoples and gives them a kind of authority.

[9] In Ezekiel,

I put 7 a jewel on your nose, and earrings on your ears, and a crown of adornment on your head. Ezekiel 16:12.

This refers to the establishment of the Church. 'A jewel on the nose' stands for the perception of good; 'earrings on the ears' for the perception of truth, and obedience; and 'a crown of adornment on the head' for wisdom resulting from such perception. In Job,

He has withdrawn glory from me, and has removed the crown of my head. Job 19:9.

'Glory' stands for intelligence, which is an understanding of Divine Truth, 9429, 'crown of the head' for resulting wisdom.

[10] In the Book of Revelation,

On the thrones I saw twenty-four elders seated, clad in white garments, who had on their heads crowns of gold. They fell down before the one seated on the throne, and worshipped the one who lives for ever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne. Revelation 4:4, 10.

'Twenty-four elders' means all those who are governed by good that is a product of truths, and in the abstract sense all forms of good that result from truths, 6524, 9404. 'Thrones' are truths from God, 5313, 6397, 8625, 9039; 'crowns of gold on their heads' are representative signs of wisdom received from God, and because it is received from Him they cast their crowns before the one seated on the throne.

[11] Since the good of wisdom is acquired through conflicts brought about by temptations, in which the truths of faith are used to fight with, those who fought against evils and falsities and were victorious were rewarded with crowns. Therefore also the crowns of martyrdom were emblems provided by the Lord which are signs of dominion over evils. The fact that crowns are the rewards of victory over evils, and that crowns consequently mean forms of the good of wisdom because these are rewards, is also clear from the Book of Revelation,

I saw, and behold, a white horse, and he who sat on it had a bow; to him a crown was given; he went out conquering and to conquer. Revelation 6:2.

'A white horse and he who sat on it' is the Lord in respect of the Word, 2760-2762; and 'a bow' is teachings of truth that are used to fight with, 2686, 2709. From this it is evident that since the Lord is the subject 'a crown' means Divine Good, which is the reward of victory.

[12] And in another place,

Afterwards I saw, and behold, a white cloud, and on the cloud one was sitting, like the Son of Man, having on His head a crown of gold, and in His hand a sharp sickle. Revelation 14:14.

'A white cloud' stands for the literal sense of the Word, 4060, 4391, 5922, 6343 (end), 6752, 8781; 'the Son of Man' stands for Divine Truth which emanates from the Lord, 9807; 'a crown of gold' for Divine Good from which Divine Truth springs; and 'a sharp sickle' for the dispersal of evil and falsity. In another place,

Be faithful right through to death, and I will give you the crown of life. Revelation 2:10.

And in another,

Behold, I come quickly. Hold on to what you have, that no one may take your crown. Revelation 3:11.

'Crown' stands for good that results from truths, thus for wisdom since this is the discernment of the good of love resulting from the truths of faith. From all this it may now be seen what a crown means, and from this what is meant by a crown of holiness, which was the plate of gold on which 'Holiness to Jehovah' was engraved.
