Exodus 40:21

And he brought the ark into the tabernacle
Into that part of it called the holy of holies:

and set up the vail of the covering, and covered the ark of the
testimony;
the vail which divided between the and most holy place, and so kept out of sight the ark of the testimony within, from being seen by any, even by the priests in the holy place:

as the Lord commanded Moses;
( Exodus 26:33 Exodus 26:34 ) .
