Exodus 30:6  (King James Version)
And thou shalt put it before the vail that is by the ark of the testimony, before the mercy seat that is over the testimony, where I will meet with thee.
 


vail
26:31-35 Exodus 40:3 Exodus 40:5 Exodus 40:26 Matthew 27:51 ; Hebrews 9:3 Hebrews 9:4

before the mercy seat that is over the testimony
The words [lpny hkprt ashr `l h`dt,] {liphney haccapporeth asher l haaiduth,} "before the mercy-seat that is over the testimony," are thought to be a repetition of the preceding clause, [lpn` hprkt 'sha `l 'rn h`dt,] {liphney happarocheth asher l aron haaiduth,} "before the
vail that is by the ark of the testimony; the word [hprkt,] ,] {happarocheth,} "the
vail," being corrupted, by transposing the letters into [hkprt,] ,] {hacapporeth,} "the
mercy-seat," and the word ['rn,] ,] {aron,} "ark," omitted This repetition, as Dr. Kennicott
observes, places the altar of incense before the mercy-seat, and consequently in the Holy of Holies! Now this could not be, as the altar of incense was attended every day, and the Holy of Holies entered only once in the year. The five words which appear to be a repetition are wanting in twenty-six of Kennicott's and Rossi's MSS and in the Samaritan Text.
