The pattern of the tabernacle
1025.10-22: Ex 37.1-9.“They shall make an ark of acacia wood; two cubits and a half shall be its length, a cubit and a half its breadth, and a cubit and a half its height. 11And you shall overlay it with pure gold, within and without shall you overlay it, and you shall make upon it a moulding of gold round about. 12And you shall cast four rings of gold for it and put them on its four feet, two rings on the one side of it, and two rings on the other side of it. 13You shall make poles of acacia wood, and overlay them with gold. 14And you shall put the poles into the rings on the sides of the ark, to carry the ark by them. 15The poles shall remain in the rings of the ark; they shall not be taken from it. 16And you shall put into the ark the testimony which I shall give you. 17Then you shall make a mercy seat25.17 Or cover of pure gold; two cubits and a half shall be its length, and a cubit and a half its breadth. 18And you shall make two cherubim of gold; of hammered work shall you make them, on the two ends of the mercy seat. 19Make one cherub on the one end, and one cherub on the other end; of one piece with the mercy seat shall you make the cherubim on its two ends. 20The cherubim shall spread out their wings above, overshadowing the mercy seat with their wings, their faces one to another; toward the mercy seat shall the faces of the cherubim be. 21And you shall put the mercy seat on the top of the ark; and in the ark you shall put the testimony that I shall give you. 22There I will meet with you, and from above the mercy seat, from between the two cherubim that are upon the ark of the testimony, I will speak with you of all that I will give you in commandment for the people of Israel.
2325.23-29: Ex 37.10-15.“And you shall make a table of acacia wood; two cubits shall be its length, a cubit its breadth, and a cubit and a half its height. 24You shall overlay it with pure gold, and make a moulding of gold around it. 25And you shall make around it a frame a handbreadth wide, and a moulding of gold around the frame. 26And you shall make for it four rings of gold, and fasten the rings to the four corners at its four legs. 27Close to the frame the rings shall lie, as holders for the poles to carry the table. 28You shall make the poles of acacia wood, and overlay them with gold, and the table shall be carried with these. 29And you shall make its plates and dishes for incense, and its flagons and bowls with which to pour libations; of pure gold you shall make them. 3025.30: Ex 39.36; 40.23; Lev 24.5-9.And you shall set the bread of the Presence on the table before me always.
3125.31-40: Ex 37.17-24.“And you shall make a lampstand of pure gold. The base and the shaft of the lampstand shall be made of hammered work; its cups, its capitals, and its flowers shall be of one piece with it; 32and there shall be six branches going out of its sides, three branches of the lampstand out of one side of it and three branches of the lampstand out of the other side of it; 33three cups made like almonds, each with capital and flower, on one branch, and three cups made like almonds, each with capital and flower, on the other branch — so for the six branches going out of the lampstand; 34and on the lampstand itself four cups made like almonds, with their capitals and flowers, 35and a capital of one piece with it under each pair of the six branches going out from the lampstand. 36Their capitals and their branches shall be of one piece with it, the whole of it one piece of hammered work of pure gold. 37And you shall make the seven lamps for it; and the lamps shall be set up so as to give light upon the space in front of it. 38Its snuffers and their trays shall be of pure gold. 39Of a talent of pure gold shall it be made, with all these utensils. 4025.40: Acts 7.44; Heb 8.5.And see that you make them after the pattern for them, which is being shown you on the mountain.
