1 At sinalita ng Panginoon kay Moises, na sinasabi,

2 Kung ang sinoman ay magkasala, at sumuway sa Panginoon, na magbulaan sa kaniyang kapuwa tungkol sa isang habilin, o sa isang sanla, o sa nakaw, o pumighati sa kaniyang kapuwa,

3 O nakasumpong ng nawala, at ipagkaila at sumumpa ng kasinungalingan; sa alin man sa lahat ng ito na ginawa ng tao ng pinagkakasalahan:

4 Ay mangyayari nga, na kung siya'y nagkasala at naging salarin, na isasauli niya ang ninakaw, o ang nakuha sa pagpighati, o ang habiling inihabilin sa kaniya, o ang bagay na nawala sa kaniyang nasumpungan,

5 O anomang bagay na kaniyang sinumpaan ng kabulaanan; na isasauli niyang buo, at daragdagan pa niya ng ikalimang bahagi niyaon: sa may-ari ibibigay niya sa araw na pagkasumpong sa kaniya na siya'y may kasalanan.

6 At dadalhin niya sa Panginoon ang kaniyang handog dahil sa pagkakasala, isang tupang lalake na walang kapintasan na kinuha sa kawan, ayon sa iyong pagkahalaga, at ibibigay sa saserdote na pinakahandog dahil sa pagkakasala:

7 At itutubos sa kaniya ng saserdote sa harap ng Panginoon; at siya'y patatawarin tungkol sa alin mang kaniyang nagawa, na kaniyang pinagkasalahan.

8 At sinalita ng Panginoon kay Moises, na sinasabi,

9 Iutos mo kay Aaron at sa kaniyang mga anak, na iyong sabihin, Ito ang kautusan tungkol sa handog na susunugin: ang handog na susunugin ay malalagay sa ibabaw ng pinagsusunugan sa ibabaw ng dambana, buong gabi hanggang umaga; at ang apoy sa dambana ay papananatilihing nagniningas doon.

10 At isusuot ng saserdote ang kaniyang kasuutang lino, at ang kaniyang mga salawal na kayong lino at itatakip niya sa kaniyang katawan; at dadamputin niya ang mga abo ng handog na susunugin na sinunog sa apoy sa ibabaw ng dambana, at ilalagay niya sa tabi ng dambana.

11 At maghuhubad siya ng kaniyang mga suot, at magbibihis ng ibang mga kasuutan, at ilalabas ang mga abo sa labas ng kampamento sa isang dakong malinis.

12 At ang apoy sa ibabaw ng dambana ay papananatilihing nagniningas doon, hindi papatayin; at ang saserdote ay magsusunog ng kahoy sa ibabaw niyaon tuwing umaga: at aayusin niya sa ibabaw niyaon ang handog na susunugin, at susunugin sa ibabaw niyaon ang taba ng mga handog tungkol sa kapayapaan.

13 Ang apoy ay papananatilihing nagniningas sa ibabaw ng dambana; hindi papatayin.

14 At ito ang kautusan tungkol sa handog na harina: ihahandog ng mga anak ni Aaron sa harap ng Panginoon, sa harap ng dambana.

15 At kukuha siya niyaon ng kaniyang dakot, ng mainam na harina sa handog na harina, at ng langis niyaon, at ng lahat na kamangyan, na nasa ibabaw ng handog na harina, at kaniyang susunugin sa ibabaw ng dambana, na pinakamasarap na amoy, na alaala niyaon sa Panginoon.

16 At ang labis sa handog ay kakanin ni Aaron at ng kaniyang mga anak: walang lebadurang kakanin sa dakong banal; sa looban ng tabernakulo ng kapisanan kakanin nila.

17 Hindi lulutuing may lebadura. Aking ibinigay sa kanilang pinakabahagi nila, sa mga handog sa akin na pinaraan sa apoy; kabanalbanalang bagay nga, na gaya ng handog dahil sa kasalanan, at gaya ng handog dahil sa pagkakasala.

18 Bawa't lalake sa mga anak ni Aaron ay kakain niyaon na pinakabahagi nila magpakailan man, sa buong panahon ng inyong lahi, sa mga handog sa Panginoon na pinaraan sa apoy; sinomang humipo ng mga iyan ay magiging banal.

19 At sinalita ng Panginoon kay Moises, na sinasabi,

20 Ito ang alay ni Aaron at ng kaniyang mga anak na kanilang ihahandog sa Panginoon sa araw na siya'y pahiran ng langis; ang ikasangpung bahagi ng isang epa ng mainam na harina, na pinakahandog na harina magpakailan man, ang kalahati ay sa umaga at ang kalahati ay sa hapon.

21 Sa kawali ihahandang may langis; pagkatigmak niyaon dadalhin mo: lutong putolputol na ihaharap mo ang handog na harina na pinaka masarap na amoy sa Panginoon.

22 At ang saserdoteng pinahiran ng langis na mahahalili sa kaniya, na mula sa gitna ng kaniyang mga anak ay maghahandog niyaon: ayon sa palatuntunang walang hanggan ay susunuging lahat sa Panginoon.

23 At bawa't handog na harina ng saserdote ay susunuging lahat: hindi kakanin.

24 At sinalita ng Panginoon kay Moises, na sinasabi,

25 Salitain mo kay Aaron at sa kaniyang mga anak, na sabihin, Ito ang kautusan tungkol sa handog dahil sa kasalanan: sa dakong pinagpapatayan ng handog na susunugin ay doon papatayin ang handog dahil sa kasalanan, sa harap ng Panginoon; kabanalbanalang bagay nga.

26 Ang saserdoteng maghandog niyaon dahil sa kasalanan ay kakain niyaon: sa dakong banal kakanin, sa looban ng tabernakulo ng kapisanan.

27 Anomang humipo ng laman niyaon ay magiging banal: at pagka pumilansik ang dugo sa alin mang damit, ay lalabhan mo yaong napilansikan sa dakong banal.

28 Datapuwa't ang sisidlang lupa na pinaglutuan ay babasagin: at kung niluto sa sisidlang tanso ay lilinisin at babanlawan ng tubig.

29 Bawa't lalake sa mga saserdote ay kakain niyaon: bagay ngang kabanalbanalan.

30 At hindi kakanin ang anomang handog dahil sa kasalanan, kung may dugo niyao'y ipinasok sa tabernakulo ng kapisanan upang ipangtubos sa dakong banal: sa apoy nga susunugin.

9959. 'And make for them linen undergarments' means an external level of conjugial love. This is clear from the meaning of 'undergarments' as an external level of conjugial love, dealt with below; and from the meaning of 'linen' as external truth or natural truth, also dealt with below. The reason why an external level of conjugial love is meant by 'undergarments' is that garments or coverings derive their meaning from the part of the body they cover, 9827, and the loins and genital organs, which the undergarments clothe or cover, mean conjugial love. For 'the loins' and their meaning this love, see 3021, 4280, 4575; and for 'the genital organs' and their meaning it, 4462, 5050-5062. What truly conjugial love is will be stated below in 9960.

[2] The undergarments were made from linen because 'linen' or 'flax' means external truth or natural truth, 7601, and what constitutes the actual external is truth. The reason why truth constitutes the external is that internal things terminate in external ones and rest on them as their underlying supports, and the underlying supports of good are truths. These are like the foundations on which a house is built or on which a house rests, which is why the truths of faith springing from good are meant by the foundations of a house, 9643. Truths furthermore are what protect forms of good from and withstand evils and falsities, all the power that good possesses being exerted by means of truths, 9643. So it is also that the last and lowest part of heaven is inhabited by those who are guided by truths of faith springing from good. So it is also therefore that what is last or most external with a person, namely his external skin, corresponds to those in heaven who are guided by the truths of faith, 5552-5559, 8980, yet not to those who uphold faith separated from good, since they are not in heaven. From all this it may now be recognized why the undergarments were made from linen or flax. Aaron's undergarment however, when he was clothed with the garments which were 'for glorious adornment', and which have been the subject in the present chapter, was made of fine linen together with interwoven fine linen, as is evident from a later chapter where it says,

They made tunics of fine linen, the work of a weaver, and a turban of fine linen, and attractive headdresses 1 from fine linen, and linen undergarments with fine twined linen. Exodus 39:27-28.

But when he was clothed with the 'holy garments' Aaron's undergarment was made of linen alone, as is clear from the following in Moses,

When Aaron comes into the sanctuary within the veil he shall put on the holy linen tunic, and the linen undergarment shall be over his flesh, and he shall gird himself with the linen belt, and place the linen turban on himself. These are holy garments. He shall also wash his flesh with water when he puts them on. He shall then first offer burnt offerings and sacrifices, by means of which he will expiate the holy place from uncleannesses. Leviticus 16:1-end.

[3] The reason why Aaron was to go at that time clothed in the linen garments, which were also called 'the holy garments', was that at that time he was performing the duty of expiating the tent, and also the people and himself from uncleannesses. And every expiation, which was accomplished by means of washings, burnt offerings, and sacrifices, represented purification of the heart from evils and falsities, and so represented regeneration; and purification from evils and falsities, or regeneration, is accomplished by means of the truths of faith. This was why Aaron wore the linen garments then, for the truths of faith are meant by 'linen garments', as stated above.

All purification from evils and falsities is accomplished by means of the truths of faith, see 2799, 5954 (end), 7044, 7918, 9089. So therefore is regeneration, 1555, 2046, 2063, 2979, 3332, 3665, 3690, 3786, 3876, 3877, 4096, 4097, 5893, 6247, 8635, 8638-8640, 8772, 9088, 9089, 9103.

[4] It was for the same reason also that the priest was to put on the linen robe and the linen undergarment when he carried the ash away from the altar, Leviticus 6:9-11, and also that 'the priests, the Levites, from the sons of Zadok' were to put it on, when they entered the sanctuary, regarding whom the following is stated in Ezekiel,

The priests, the Levites, the sons of Zadok, shall enter My sanctuary, and they shall draw near My table to minister to Me. When they enter the gates of the inner court they shall put on the linen garments, and no wool shall come upon them. When they minister in the gates of the inner court, and within, the linen turbans shall be on their heads, and the linen undergarments shall be over their loins. They shall not gird themselves with sweat. 2 Ezekiel 44:15-18.

The subject in this passage is the new temple, by which a new Church is meant. By 'the priests, the Levites' those guided by truths springing from good are meant, and by 'the linen garments' the truths of faith by means of which purification and regeneration are accomplished. 'Not girding themselves with sweat' means that the holy things of worship should not be mingled with the human self; for 'sweat' means the human self or proprium, and the human proprium is nothing but evil and falsity, 210, 215, 694, 874-876, 987, 1047, 3812 (end), 8480, 8941.

[5] The reason why the undergarment Aaron wore when he was clothed with the garments 'for glorious adornment' was made of linen together with fine twined linen, as is evident from Exodus 39:27-28, quoted above, was that Aaron in those garments represented the Lord in respect of Divine Good in the heavens, Aaron himself representing the Lord in respect of the Divine Celestial there, his garments the Lord in respect of the Divine Spiritual there emanating from the Divine Celestial, 9814, and fine linen the Divine Spiritual emanating from the Divine Celestial, 5319, 9469.

1. literally, adornments of headdresses

2. i.e. They must not wear garments that will make them sweat
