Exodus 39:12
Arcana Coelestia # 10807
10807. Exodus 39
1. And from the violet, and the purple, and the twice-dyed scarlet they made the garments of service for serving in the holy place; and they made the holy garments 1 that were for Aaron, as Jehovah had commanded Moses.
2. And he made the ephod from gold, violet, and purple, and twice-dyed scarlet, and fine twined linen.
3. And they beat out 2 the plates of gold and cut them up into threads, to work in among the violet, and in among the purple, and in among the twice-dyed scarlet, and in among the fine linen, with the work of a designer.
4. They made shoulder-pieces for it linked together; on its two ends it was linked together.
5. And the girdle of his ephod, which was on it, was of [one piece with] it, being of the same workmanship 3 , [made] from gold, violet, and purple, and twice-dyed scarlet, and fine twined linen, as Jehovah had commanded Moses.
6. And they set the shoham 4 stones, enclosed in sockets of gold, engraved - [like] the engravings of a signet - with the names of the sons of Israel.
7. And he placed them on the shoulder-pieces of the ephod, as stones of remembrance for the sons of Israel, as Jehovah had commanded Moses.
8. And he made the breastplate, with the work of a designer, in accord with the work of the ephod, from gold, violet, and purple, and twice-dyed scarlet, and fine twined linen.
9. It was square; doubled they made the breastplate. A span was the length of it and a span the breadth of it when it was doubled 5 .
10. And they filled it with four rows of stones, the order being, A ruby, a topaz, and a carbuncle - the first row;
11. And the second row, A chrysoprase, a sapphire, and a diamond;
12. And the third row, A lapis lazuli, an agate, and an amethyst;
13. And the fourth row, A tarshish 6 , a shoham 4 , and a jasper. They were enclosed in sockets of gold, in their settings.
14. And the stones for it were according to the names of the sons of Israel, twelve; according to their names, with the engravings of a signet, each according to its name, they were for the twelve tribes.
15. And they made on the breastplate small chains on the border 7 with the work of slender rope 8 , from pure gold.
16. And they made two sockets of gold, and two rings of gold, and put the two rings on the two ends of the breastplate.
17. And they put the two slender ropes of gold in the two rings on the ends of the breastplate.
18. And the two ends of the two slender ropes they put into the two sockets, and put them onto the shoulder-pieces of the ephod before the face of it.
19. And they made two rings of gold, and placed them on the two ends of the breastplate, on the edge of it which is on this side of the ephod, inwards.
20. And they made two rings of gold, and put them on the two shoulder-pieces of the ephod, below before the face of it, against the join above the girdle of the ephod.
21. And they tied the breastplate from its rings to the rings of the ephod with a cord of violet, so that it was above the girdle of the ephod, in order that the breastplate might not come away from upon the ephod, as Jehovah had commanded Moses.
22. And he made the robe of the ephod with the work of a weaver, the whole from violet.
23. And he made the hole 9 of the robe, in the middle of it, its hole 9 having an edge round about, so that it would not tear.
24. And they made on the hem of the robe pomegranates from violet, and purple, and interwoven twice-dyed scarlet.
25. And they made bells of pure gold, and they put the bells in the middle of the pomegranates on the hem of the robe round about, in the middle of the pomegranates -
26. A bell and a pomegranate, a bell and a pomegranate, on the hem of the robe round about, for ministering in, as Jehovah had commanded Moses.
27. And they made the tunics of fine linen, with the work of a weaver, for Aaron and his sons,
28. And the turban from fine linen, and the adorning headdresses 10 from fine linen, and the linen undergarments from fine twined linen,
29. And the belt from fine twined linen, and violet, and purple, and twice-dyed scarlet, with the work of an embroiderer, as Jehovah had commanded Moses.
30. And they made the plate of the crown of holiness from pure gold, and wrote on it, [like] the writing of the engraving of a signet, Holiness to Jehovah.
31. And they attached to it 11 a cord of violet, to attach it to 12 the top of the turban, as Jehovah had commanded Moses.
32. And all the work of the dwelling-place of the tent of meeting was finished. And the children of Israel did according to all the things that Jehovah had commanded Moses; so they did.
33. And they brought the dwelling-place to Moses, the tent and all its vessels, its clasps, its boards, its bars, and its pillars, and its bases,
34. And the covering of skins of red rams 13 , and the covering of skins of badgers, and the veil of the screen,
35. The ark of the testimony, and its poles, and the mercy-seat,
36. The table, all its vessels, and the bread of the Presence 15 ,
37. The pure lampstand, its lamps (the lamps set in order 15 ), and all its vessels, and the oil for the light,

"This is the thing that you shall do to them to make them holy, to minister to me in the priest's office: take one young bull and two rams without blemish,
2
unleavened bread, unleavened cakes mixed with oil, and unleavened wafers anointed with oil: you shall make them of fine wheat flour.
3
You shall put them into one basket, and bring them in the basket, with the bull and the two rams.
4
You shall bring Aaron and his sons to the door of the Tent of Meeting, and shall wash them with water.
5
You shall take the garments, and put on Aaron the coat, the robe of the ephod, the ephod, and the breastplate, and clothe him with the skillfully woven band of the ephod;
6
and you shall set the turban on his head, and put the holy crown on the turban.
7
Then you shall take the anointing oil, and pour it on his head, and anoint him.
8
You shall bring his sons, and put coats on them.
9
You shall clothe them with belts, Aaron and his sons, and bind headbands on them: and they shall have the priesthood by a perpetual statute: and you shall consecrate Aaron and his sons.
10
"You shall bring the bull before the Tent of Meeting: and Aaron and his sons shall lay their hands on the head of the bull.
11
You shall kill the bull before Yahweh, at the door of the Tent of Meeting.
12
You shall take of the blood of the bull, and put it on the horns of the altar with your finger; and you shall pour out all the blood at the base of the altar.
13
You shall take all the fat that covers the innards, the cover of the liver, the two kidneys, and the fat that is on them, and burn them on the altar.
14
But the flesh of the bull, and its skin, and its dung, you shall burn with fire outside of the camp: it is a sin offering.
15
"You shall also take the one ram; and Aaron and his sons shall lay their hands on the head of the ram.
16
You shall kill the ram, and you shall take its blood, and sprinkle it around on the altar.
17
You shall cut the ram into its pieces, and wash its innards, and its legs, and put them with its pieces, and with its head.
18
You shall burn the whole ram on the altar: it is a burnt offering to Yahweh; it is a pleasant aroma, an offering made by fire to Yahweh.
19
"You shall take the other ram; and Aaron and his sons shall lay their hands on the head of the ram.
20
Then you shall kill the ram, and take some of its blood, and put it on the tip of the right ear of Aaron, and on the tip of the right ear of his sons, and on the thumb of their right hand, and on the big toe of their right foot, and sprinkle the blood around on the altar.
21
You shall take of the blood that is on the altar, and of the anointing oil, and sprinkle it on Aaron, and on his garments, and on his sons, and on the garments of his sons with him: and he shall be made holy, and his garments, and his sons, and his sons' garments with him.
22
Also you shall take some of the ram's fat, the fat tail, the fat that covers the innards, the cover of the liver, the two kidneys, the fat that is on them, and the right thigh (for it is a ram of consecration),
23
and one loaf of bread, one cake of oiled bread, and one wafer out of the basket of unleavened bread that is before Yahweh.
24
You shall put all of this in Aaron's hands, and in his sons' hands, and shall wave them for a wave offering before Yahweh.
25
You shall take them from their hands, and burn them on the altar on the burnt offering, for a pleasant aroma before Yahweh: it is an offering made by fire to Yahweh.
26
"You shall take the breast of Aaron's ram of consecration, and wave it for a wave offering before Yahweh: and it shall be your portion.
27
You shall sanctify the breast of the wave offering, and the thigh of the wave offering, which is waved, and which is heaved up, of the ram of consecration, even of that which is for Aaron, and of that which is for his sons:
28
and it shall be for Aaron and his sons as their portion forever from the children of Israel; for it is a wave offering: and it shall be a wave offering from the children of Israel of the sacrifices of their peace offerings, even their wave offering to Yahweh.
29
"The holy garments of Aaron shall be for his sons after him, to be anointed in them, and to be consecrated in them.
30
Seven days shall the son who is priest in his place put them on, when he comes into the Tent of Meeting to minister in the holy place.
31
"You shall take the ram of consecration, and boil its flesh in a holy place.
32
Aaron and his sons shall eat the flesh of the ram, and the bread that is in the basket, at the door of the Tent of Meeting.
33
They shall eat those things with which atonement was made, to consecrate and sanctify them: but a stranger shall not eat of it, because they are holy.
34
If anything of the flesh of the consecration, or of the bread, remains to the morning, then you shall burn the remainder with fire: it shall not be eaten, because it is holy.
35
"You shall do so to Aaron, and to his sons, according to all that I have commanded you. You shall consecrate them seven days.
36
Every day you shall offer the bull of sin offering for atonement: and you shall cleanse the altar, when you make atonement for it; and you shall anoint it, to sanctify it.
37
Seven days you shall make atonement for the altar, and sanctify it: and the altar shall be most holy; whatever touches the altar shall be holy.
38
"Now this is that which you shall offer on the altar: two lambs a year old day by day continually.
39
The one lamb you shall offer in the morning; and the other lamb you shall offer at evening:
40
and with the one lamb a tenth part of an ephah of fine flour mixed with the fourth part of a hin of beaten oil, and the fourth part of a hin of wine for a drink offering.
41
The other lamb you shall offer at evening, and shall do to it according to the meal offering of the morning, and according to its drink offering, for a pleasant aroma, an offering made by fire to Yahweh.
42
It shall be a continual burnt offering throughout your generations at the door of the Tent of Meeting before Yahweh, where I will meet with you, to speak there to you.
43
There I will meet with the children of Israel; and the place shall be sanctified by my glory.
44
I will sanctify the Tent of Meeting and the altar: Aaron also and his sons I will sanctify, to minister to me in the priest's office.
45
I will dwell among the children of Israel, and will be their God.
46
They shall know that I am Yahweh their God, who brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, that I might dwell among them: I am Yahweh their God.
