Exodus 40:1-8

1 locutusque est Dominus ad Mosen dicens
2 mense primo die prima mensis eriges tabernaculum testimonii
3 et pones in eo arcam dimittesque ante illam velum
4 et inlata mensa pones super eam quae rite praecepta sunt candelabrum stabit cum lucernis suis
5 et altare aureum in quo adoletur incensum coram arca testimonii tentorium in introitu tabernaculi pones
6 et ante illud altare holocausti
7 labrum inter altare et tabernaculum quod implebis aqua
8 circumdabisque atrium tentoriis et ingressum eius

Exodus 40:1-8 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.
