All this, said David, Jehovah has given me insight in writing, by His hand upon me, all these patterns of the workmanship.

And see to it that you make them according to the pattern which was shown you on the mountain.

And you shall erect the tabernacle according to the ordinance which you were shown on the mountain.

According to all that Jehovah had commanded Moses, thus the children of Israel did all the work.

And Moses inspected all the work, and indeed they had done it; as Jehovah had commanded, thus they had done it. And Moses blessed them.

This is the foundation which Solomon laid for building the house of God: The length was sixty cubits (by cubits according to the former measure) and the width twenty cubits.

Son of man, describe the house to the house of Israel, that they may be ashamed of their iniquities; and let them measure the pattern.

And if they are ashamed of all that they have done, make known to them the design of the house and its arrangement, its exits and its entrances, its entire design and all its ordinances, all its forms and all its laws. Write it down in their sight, so that they may keep its whole design and all its ordinances, and do them.

who serve the copy and shadow of the Heavenly things, as Moses was divinely admonished when he was about to make the tabernacle. For He said, See that you make all things according to the pattern shown to you on the mountain.

The porch in front of the sanctuary of the house was twenty cubits long across the width of the house, and the width of the porch extended ten cubits from the front of the house.

And the porch that was in front of the sanctuary was twenty cubits long across the width of the house, and the height was one hundred and twenty. He overlaid the inside with pure gold.

He also measured the porch of the inside gate, one rod.

Then he measured the porch of the gate, eight cubits; and the pillars, two cubits. The porch of the gate was on the inside.

From the front of the entrance gate to the front of the porch of the inner gate was fifty cubits.

And he brought me to the porch of the house and measured the pillars of the porch, five cubits on this side and five cubits on that side; and the width of the gate was three cubits on this side and three cubits on that side.

The length of the porch was twenty cubits, and the width eleven cubits; and by the steps which led up to it there were columns by the pillars, one on this side and another on that side.

And he built twenty-cubits at the rear of the house, from floor to the walls, with cedar boards; he built it inside for the inner sanctuary, the Holy of Holies.

And on the cedar inside the house were carvings of gourds and open flowers. All was of cedar; no stone was seen.

The faces of the inner sanctuary were twenty cubits long, twenty cubits wide, and twenty cubits high. And he overlaid it with pure gold, and overlaid the altar with cedar.

The great house he paneled with cypress which he covered with fine gold, and he put palm trees and chains on it.

He also covered the house, the beams and thresholds, its walls and doors, with gold; and he engraved cherubim on the walls.

The weight of the nails was fifty shekels of gold; and he covered the upper chambers with gold.

So he measured the house, one hundred cubits long; and the separate area with the building and its walls was one hundred cubits long.

And he measured the length of the building behind it, facing the separate area, with its galleries on the one side and on the other side, one hundred cubits, as well as the inner temple and the porches of the court,

from the space above the door, even to the inner room, as well as outside, and on every wall all around, inside and outside, by measure.

For the first tabernacle was prepared: in which was the lampstand, the table, and the Bread of Presentation, which is called the sanctuary;

which had the golden altar of incense and the ark of the covenant overlaid on all sides with gold, in which were the golden pot that had the manna, Aaron's staff that budded, and the tablets of the covenant;

Now when these things had been thus prepared, the priests always went into the first tabernacle, performing the services.

the Holy Spirit signifying by this that the way into the Holy of Holies was not yet made manifest while the first tabernacle was still standing.

In this trust were four chief gatekeepers; Levites. And they had charge over the chambers and treasuries of the house of God.

Some of them were over the vessels of service, for they brought them in by count and took them out by count.

Of the Levites, Ahijah was over the treasuries of the house of God and over the treasuries of the dedicated things.

The sons of Jehieli: Zetham and Joel his brother were over the treasuries of the house of Jehovah.

Shebuel the son of Gershom, the son of Moses, was ruler of the treasuries.

This Shelomith and his brethren were over all the treasuries of the dedicated things which King David and the heads of fathers, the commanders over thousands and hundreds, and the commanders of the army, had consecrated.

And He looked up and saw the rich putting their gifts into the treasury,

Against the wall of the house he built chambers all around, against the walls of the house, all around the temple and the inner sanctuary. Thus he made chambers all around.

The lowest chamber was five cubits wide, the middle was six cubits wide, and the third was seven cubits wide; for he made narrow ledges around the outside of the house, so that the support beams would not be fastened into the walls of the house.

And he built chambers against the entire house, each five cubits high; they were attached to the house with cedar beams.

The weight of the nails was fifty shekels of gold; and he covered the upper chambers with gold.

And the priest, the son of Aaron, shall be with the Levites when the Levites receive tithes; and the Levites shall bring up a tithe of the tithes to the house of our God, to the rooms of the storehouse.

For the children of Israel and the children of Levi shall bring the offering of the grain, of the new wine and the oil, to the rooms where the articles of the sanctuary are, where the priests who minister and the gatekeepers and the singers are; and we will not neglect the house of our God.

had prepared for him a large room, where previously they had stored the grain offerings, the frankincense, the utensils, the tithes of grain, the new wine and oil, which were commanded to be given to the Levites and singers and gatekeepers, and the offerings for the priests.

Go to the house of the Rechabites and speak to them, and bring them into the house of Jehovah, into one of the rooms, and give them wine to drink.

The side rooms were in three stories, one above the other, thirty rooms in each story; they rested on ledges which were for the side rooms all around, that they might be supported, but not fastened to the wall of the house.

I also saw the height of the house all around; the foundation of the side rooms was a full rod, that is, six cubits high.

And between it and the rooms was a width of twenty cubits all around the house on every side.

You shall make a mercy seat of pure gold; two and a half cubits shall be its length and a cubit and a half its width.

Make one cherub at one end, and one cherub at the other end; you shall make the cherubim at the two ends of it from one piece with the mercy seat.

You shall put the mercy seat on top of the ark, and in the ark you shall put the Testimony that I will give you.

And he took the Testimony and put it into the ark, inserted the poles through the rings of the ark, and put the mercy seat on the ark from above.

And he brought the ark into the tabernacle, put up the veil of the covering, and screened the ark of the Testimony, as Jehovah had commanded Moses.

And he prepared the inner sanctuary inside the house, to set the ark of the covenant of Jehovah there.

And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of Jehovah to its place, into the inner sanctuary of the house, to the Holy of Holies, under the wings of the cherubim.

and above it were the cherubim of glory overshadowing the mercy seat. Of these things we cannot now speak in detail.
