Offerings for the Tabernacle
The Lord said to Moses,
-
Make this tabernacle and all its furnishings exactly like the pattern I will show you.
-
The Tabernacle
“Make the tabernacle with ten curtains of finely twisted linen and blue, purple and scarlet yarn, with cherubim woven into them by a skilled worker.
-
Then make fifty gold clasps and use them to fasten the curtains together so that the tabernacle is a unit.
-
“Make curtains of goat hair for the tent over the tabernacle—eleven altogether.
-
As for the additional length of the tent curtains, the half curtain that is left over is to hang down at the rear of the tabernacle.
-
The tent curtains will be a cubit longer on both sides; what is left will hang over the sides of the tabernacle so as to cover it.
-
“Make upright frames of acacia wood for the tabernacle.
-
with two projections set parallel to each other. Make all the frames of the tabernacle in this way.
-
Make twenty frames for the south side of the tabernacle
-
For the other side, the north side of the tabernacle, make twenty frames
-
Make six frames for the far end, that is, the west end of the tabernacle,
-
“Also make crossbars of acacia wood: five for the frames on one side of the tabernacle,
-
five for those on the other side, and five for the frames on the west, at the far end of the tabernacle.
-
“Set up the tabernacle according to the plan shown you on the mountain.
-
Place the table outside the curtain on the north side of the tabernacle and put the lampstand opposite it on the south side.
-
The Courtyard
“Make a courtyard for the tabernacle. The south side shall be a hundred cubits long and is to have curtains of finely twisted linen,
-
All the other articles used in the service of the tabernacle, whatever their function, including all the tent pegs for it and those for the courtyard, are to be of bronze.
-
Materials for the Tabernacle
Moses said to the whole Israelite community, “This is what the Lord has commanded:
-
the tabernacle with its tent and its covering, clasps, frames, crossbars, posts and bases;
-
the altar of incense with its poles, the anointing oil and the fragrant incense; the curtain for the doorway at the entrance to the tabernacle;
-
the tent pegs for the tabernacle and for the courtyard, and their ropes;
-
The Tabernacle
All those who were skilled among the workers made the tabernacle with ten curtains of finely twisted linen and blue, purple and scarlet yarn, with cherubim woven into them by expert hands.
-
Then they made fifty gold clasps and used them to fasten the two sets of curtains together so that the tabernacle was a unit.
-
They made curtains of goat hair for the tent over the tabernacle—eleven altogether.
