10041. Verses 15-18. And thou shalt take one ram, and Aaron and his sons shall lay their hands upon the head of the ram. And thou shalt slay the ram, and thou shalt take its blood, and sprinkle it upon the altar round about. And thou shalt cut the ram into its pieces, and shalt wash its intestines, and its legs, and put them upon its pieces, and upon its head. And thou shalt burn with the whole ram upon the altar; this is a burnt-offering unto Jehovah; an odor of rest, an offering made by fire unto Jehovah is this. "And thou shalt take one ram," signifies the good of innocence in the internal man; "and Aaron and his sons shall lay their hands," signifies the communication of power; "upon the head of the ram," signifies with the whole; "and thou shalt slay the ram," signifies preparation for the purification of the internal man; "and thou shalt take its blood," signifies Divine truth; "and sprinkle it upon the altar round about," signifies conjunction with Divine good; "and thou shalt cut the ram into its pieces," signifies that the interior things are to be set in order in a distinct manner; "and shalt wash its intestines," signifies the purification of the lowest things; "and its legs," signifies the purification of the exterior things of the natural man; "and put them upon its pieces, and upon its head," signifies the setting in order of exterior things under internal and inmost ones; "and thou shalt burn with the whole ram upon the altar," signifies the internal of the Lord's Divine Human united to the Divine good of His Divine love, which was in Himself; "this is a burnt-offering unto Jehovah," signifies the glorification of the Lord's Human; "an odor of rest," signifies perceptivity of peace; "an offering made by fire to Jehovah is this," signifies all from the Divine love.
