Exodus 40:27-37

27 et altare holocausti in vestibulo testimonii offerens in eo holocaustum et sacrificia ut Dominus imperarat

28 labrum quoque statuit inter tabernaculum testimonii et altare implens illud aqua

29 laveruntque Moses et Aaron ac filii eius manus suas et pedes

30 cum ingrederentur tectum foederis et accederent ad altare sicut praeceperat Dominus

31 erexit et atrium per gyrum tabernaculi et altaris ducto in introitu eius tentorio postquam cuncta perfecta sunt

32 operuit nubes tabernaculum testimonii et gloria Domini implevit illud

33 nec poterat Moses ingredi tectum foederis nube operiente omnia et maiestate Domini coruscante quia cuncta nubes operuerat

34 si quando nubes tabernaculum deserebat proficiscebantur filii Israhel per turmas suas

35 si pendebat desuper manebant in eodem loco

36 nubes quippe Domini incubabat per diem tabernaculo et ignis in nocte videntibus populis Israhel per cunctas mansiones suas

Exodus 40:27-37 Meaning and Commentary

\\INTRODUCTION OF EXODUS 40\\

This chapter contains the order for setting up the tabernacle, and
placing the furniture of it where it was the will of God it should be
put, Ex 40:1-8 and for the anointing it, and all its vessels, and
also Aaron and his sons, Ex 40:9-16 all which were accordingly
done, the tabernacle was reared up, and everything was put in its
proper place, Ex 40:16-33 upon which a cloud covered the tent, and
the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle, so that Moses could not
enter; which cloud afterwards was a direction in their journeys, by
night and by day, Ex 40:34-38.
