The
Tabernacle Erected |
|
|
 |
| Exodus 40:1 |
|
Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, |
|
|
|
|
| Exodus 40:2 |
|
"On the first day of the first month you shall
set up the tabernacle of the tent of meeting. |
| |
|
|
| Exodus 40:3 |
|
"You shall place the ark of the testimony there,
and you shall screen the ark with the veil. |
| |
|
|
| Exodus 40:4 |
|
"You shall bring in the table and arrange what
belongs on it; and you shall bring in the lampstand and mount its lamps. |
| |
|
|
| Exodus 40:5 |
|
"Moreover, you shall set the gold altar of incense
before the ark of the testimony, and set up the veil for the doorway to the tabernacle. |
| |
|
|
| Exodus 40:6 |
|
"You shall set the altar of burnt offering in
front of the doorway of the tabernacle of the tent of meeting. |
| |
|
|
| Exodus 40:7 |
|
"You shall set the laver between the tent of
meeting and the altar and put water in it. |
|
|
|
| Exodus 40:8 |
|
"You shall set up the court all around and hang
up the veil for the gateway of the court. |
|
|
|
| Exodus 40:9 |
|
"Then you shall take the anointing oil and anoint
the tabernacle and all that is in it, and shall consecrate it and all its furnishings;
and it shall be holy. |
|
|
|
| Exodus 40:10 |
|
"You shall anoint the altar of burnt offering
and all its utensils, and consecrate the altar, and the altar shall be most holy. |
|
|
|
| Exodus 40:11 |
|
"You shall anoint the laver and its stand, and
consecrate it. |
|
|
|
| Exodus 40:12 |
|
"Then you shall bring Aaron and his sons to
the doorway of the tent of meeting and wash them with water. |
|
|
|
| Exodus 40:13 |
|
"You shall put the holy garments on Aaron and
anoint him and consecrate him, that he may minister as a priest to Me. |
|
|
|
| Exodus 40:14 |
|
"You shall bring his sons and put tunics on
them; |
|
|
|
| Exodus 40:15 |
|
and you shall anoint them even as you have anointed
their father, that they may minister as priests to Me; and their anointing will
qualify them for a perpetual priesthood throughout their generations." |
|
|
|
| Exodus 40:16 |
|
Thus Moses did; according to all that the LORD
had commanded him, so he did. |
|
|
|
| Exodus 40:17 |
|
Now in the first month of the second year, on
the first day of the month, the tabernacle was erected. |
|
|
|
| Exodus 40:18 |
|
Moses erected the tabernacle and laid its sockets,
and set up its boards, and inserted its bars and erected its pillars. |
|
|
|
| Exodus 40:19 |
|
He spread the tent over the tabernacle and put
the covering of the tent on top of it, just as the LORD had commanded Moses. |
| |
|
|
| Exodus 40:20 |
|
Then he took the testimony and put it into the
ark, and attached the poles to the ark, and put the mercy seat on top of the ark.
|
| |
|
|
| Exodus 40:21 |
|
He brought the ark into the tabernacle, and
set up a veil for the screen, and screened off the ark of the testimony, just
as the LORD had commanded Moses. |
|
|
|
|
| Exodus 40:22 |
|
Then he put the table in the tent of meeting
on the north side of the tabernacle, outside the veil. |
|
|
|
|
| Exodus 40:23 |
|
He set the arrangement of bread in order on
it before the LORD, just as the LORD had commanded Moses. |
|
|
|
|
| Exodus 40:24 |
|
Then he placed the lampstand in the tent of
meeting, opposite the table, on the south side of the tabernacle. |
|
|
|
|
| Exodus 40:25 |
|
He lighted the lamps before the LORD, just as
the LORD had commanded Moses. |
|
|
|
|
| Exodus 40:26 |
|
Then he placed the gold altar in the tent of
meeting in front of the veil; |
|
|
|
|
| Exodus 40:27 |
|
and he burned fragrant incense on it, just as
the LORD had commanded Moses. |
|
|
|
|
| Exodus 40:28 |
|
Then he set up the veil for the doorway of the
tabernacle. |
|
|
|
|
| Exodus 40:29 |
|
He set the altar of burnt offering before the
doorway of the tabernacle of the tent of meeting, and offered on it the burnt
offering and the meal offering, just as the LORD had commanded Moses. |
|
|
|
|
| Exodus 40:30 |
|
He placed the laver between the tent of meeting
and the altar and put water in it for washing. |
|
|
|
|
| Exodus 40:31 |
|
From it Moses and Aaron and his sons washed
their hands and their feet. |
|
|
|
|
| Exodus 40:32 |
|
When they entered the tent of meeting, and when
they approached the altar, they washed, just as the LORD had commanded Moses.
|
|
|
|
|
| Exodus 40:33 |
|
He erected the court all around the tabernacle
and the altar, and hung up the veil for the gateway of the court. Thus Moses finished
the work. |
| |
|
|
| |
|
The
Glory of the Lord |
|
|
|
|
| Exodus 40:34 |
|
Then the cloud covered the tent of meeting,
and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle. |
|
|
|
|
| Exodus 40:35 |
|
Moses was not able to enter the tent of meeting
because the cloud had settled on it, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle. |
|
|
|
|
| Exodus 40:36 |
|
Throughout all their journeys whenever the cloud
was taken up from over the tabernacle, the sons of Israel would set out; |
|
|
|
|
| Exodus 40:37 |
|
but if the cloud was not taken up, then they
did not set out until the day when it was taken up. |
|
|
|
|
| Exodus 40:38 |
|
For throughout all their journeys, the cloud
of the LORD was on the tabernacle by day, and there was fire in it by night, in
the sight of all the house of Israel. |
