Exodus 25:40 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 25:40

And look that thou make them
Or see that they are made by workmen employed:

after their pattern, which was showed thee in the mount;
from whence it appears, that as Moses was showed the model of the tabernacle, so also of the candlestick, and of all its appurtenances, and of every other vessel in it; and he is strictly charged to look carefully and diligently to it, that everything be done exactly according to the model he had a view of, in which everything was particularly described, and nothing was left to the will, humour, and fancy of men.
