1. AND THE Lord said to Moses,
2. On the first day of the first month you shall set up the tabernacle of the Tent of Meeting [of God with you].
3. And you shall put in it the ark of the Testimony and screen the ark [of God's Presence] with the veil. [Heb. 10:19-23.]
4. You shall bring in the [showbread] table and set in order the things that are to be upon it; and you shall bring in the lampstand and set up and light its lamps. [Rev. 21:23-25.]
5. You shall set the golden altar for the incense before the ark of the Testimony [outside the veil] and put the hanging or screen at the tabernacle door.
6. You shall set the altar of the burnt offering before the door of the tabernacle of the Tent of Meeting.
7. And you shall set the laver between the Tent of Meeting and the altar and put water in it.
8. And you shall set up the court [curtains] round about and hang up the hanging or screen at the court gate.
9. You shall take the anointing oil and anoint the tabernacle and all that is in it, and shall consecrate it and all its furniture, and it shall be holy.
10. You shall anoint the altar of burnt offering and all its utensils; and consecrate (set apart for God) the altar, and the altar shall be most holy.
11. And you shall anoint the laver and its base and consecrate it.
