Exo 40:3And thou shalt put therein the ark of the testimony, and thou shalt screen the ark with the veil.

Exo 40:16

Exo 40:16Thus did Moses: according to all that Jehovah commanded him, so did he.

Exo 40:17

Exo 40:17And it came to pass in the first month in the second year, on the first day of the month, that the tabernacle was reared up.

Exo 40:18

Exo 40:18And Moses reared up the tabernacle, and laid its sockets, and set up the boards thereof, and put in the bars thereof, and reared up its pillars.

Exo 40:19

Exo 40:19And he spread the tent over the tabernacle, and put the covering of the tent above upon it; as Jehovah commanded Moses.

Exo 40:20

Exo 40:20And he took and put the testimony into the ark, and set the staves on the ark, and put the mercy-seat above upon the ark:

Exo 40:21

Exo 40:21and he brought the ark into the tabernacle, and set up the veil of the screen, and screened the ark of the testimony; as Jehovah commanded Moses.

Exo 40:22

Exo 40:22And he put the table in the tent of meeting, upon the side of the tabernacle northward, without the veil.

Exo 40:23

Exo 40:23And he set the bread in order upon it before Jehovah; as Jehovah commanded Moses.

Exo 40:24

Exo 40:24And he put the candlestick in the tent of meeting, over against the table, on the side of the tabernacle southward.

Exo 40:25

Exo 40:25And he lighted the lamps before Jehovah; as Jehovah commanded Moses.

Exo 40:30

Exo 40:30And he set the laver between the tent of meeting and the altar, and put water therein, wherewith to wash.

Exo 40:31

Exo 40:31And Moses and Aaron and his sons washed their hands and their feet thereat;

Exo 40:32

Exo 40:32when they went into the tent of meeting, and when they came near unto the altar, they washed; as Jehovah commanded Moses.

Exo 40:33

Exo 40:33And he reared up the court round about the tabernacle and the altar, and set up the screen of the gate of the court. So Moses finished the work.

The Glory of the LORD

(Exo 13:21, 22; Num 9:15–23 )

Exo 40:34

Exo 40:34Then the cloud covered the tent of meeting, and the glory of Jehovah filled the tabernacle.

Exo 40:35

Exo 40:35And Moses was not able to enter into the tent of meeting, because the cloud abode thereon, and the glory of Jehovah filled the tabernacle.

Exo 40:36

Exo 40:36And when the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle, the children of Israel went onward, throughout all their journeys:

Exo 40:37

Exo 40:37but if the cloud was not taken up, then they journeyed not till the day that it was taken up.

Exo 40:38

Exo 40:38For the cloud of Jehovah was upon the tabernacle by day, and there was fire therein by night, in the sight of all the house of Israel, throughout all their journeys.
