1 A šator ćeš načiniti od deset zavesa od tankog platna uzvedenog i od porfire i od skerleta i od crvca; i po njima da budu vezeni heruvimi.

2 Jedan zaves neka bude dvadeset i osam lakata dug i četiri lakta širok; svi zavesi da budu jedne mere.

3 Pet zavesa neka se sastavljaju jedan s drugim, i pet drugih zavesa neka se sastavljaju jedan s drugim.

4 I načini petlje od porfire po kraju jednog zavesa, gde će se krajevi sastavljati, i tako načini po kraju drugog zavesa, gde će se krajevi sastavljati.

5 Pedeset petalja načini na jednom zavesu, a Pedeset petalja načini na kraju drugog zavesa, gde će se sastavljati s drugim, a petlje da budu jedna prema drugoj.

6 I načini pedeset kuka od zlata, da zapneš zavese jedan za drugi kukama, i tako će biti šator jedan.

7 I načini zavese od kostreti za naslon nad šatorom; jedanaest takvih zavesa načini.

8 Zaves jedan neka bude trideset lakata dug, a širok četiri lakta; tih jedanaest zavesa da su jedne mere.

9 I sastavi pet zavesa zajedno, a šest ostalih zajedno, na dvoje ćeš previti šesti zaves s prednje strane naslonu.

10 I načini pedeset petalja na stražnjem kraju prvog zavesa, gde će se sastavljati, a pedeset petalja na kraju drugog zavesa, gde će se sastavljati.

11 I načini kuka bronzanih pedeset, i zapni kuke na petlje, i sastavi naslon, da bude jedno.

12 A što je više u zavesa na naslonu, polovina zavesa što pretiče, neka visi na stražnjoj strani šatoru.

13 I lakat s jedne strane a lakat s druge strane što ima više u dužinu u zavesa na naslonu, neka visi šatoru sa strane i tamo i amo, da ga zaklanja.

14 I načini pokrivač naslonu od koža ovnujskih crvenih obojenih, i svrh njega pokrivač od koža jazavičijih.

15 I načini za šator daske od drveta sitima, koje će stajati pravo.

16 Deset lakata neka bude svaka daska duga a podrug lakta široka.

17 Dva čepa neka budu na dasci, jedan prema drugom najednako; tako načini na svakoj dasci za šator.

18 Tako načini daske za šator, dvadeset dasaka na južnoj strani.

19 A pod dvadeset dasaka načini četrdeset stopica od srebra: dve stopice pod jednu dasku za dva čepa njena, i dve stopice pod drugu dasku za dva čepa njena.

20 A na drugoj strani šatora prema severu dvadeset dasaka.

21 Sa četrdeset stopica srebrnih, dve stopice pod jednu dasku i dve stopice pod drugu dasku.

22 A na zapadnoj strani šatora načini šest dasaka,

23 I dve daske na dva ugla od šatora.

24 I one neka se sastavljaju ozdo i neka se sastavljaju ozgo biočugom; tako neka bude u obe koje će biti na oba ugla.

25 Tako će biti osam dasaka sa stopicama srebrnim, sa šesnaest stopica, dve stopice pod jednu dasku, a dve stopice pod drugu dasku.

26 I načini prevornice od drveta sitima, pet za daske na jednoj strani šatora,

27 I pet prevornica za daske na drugoj strani šatora, i pet prevornica za daske na zapadnoj strani šatora do oba ugla.

28 A srednja prevornica da ide preko srede dasaka od jednog kraja do drugog.

29 A daske okuj zlatom, i biočuge im načini od zlata, da se kroz njih provuku prevornice, a i prevornice okuj zlatom.

30 Tako ćeš podignuti šator po slici koja ti je pokazana na gori.

31 I načini zaves od porfire i od skerleta i od crvca i od tankog platna uzvedenog, i po njemu neka budu vezeni heruvimi.

32 I obesi ga o četiri stupa od drveta sitima, okovana zlatom, sa kukama zlatnim, na četiri stopice srebrne.

33 I obesi zaves o kuke, i unesi za zaves kovčeg od svedočanstva, da vam zaves rastavlja svetinju od svetinje nad svetinjama.

34 I metni zaklopac na kovčeg od svedočanstva u svetinji nad svetinjama.

35 I namesti sto pred zaves a svećnjak prema stolu na južnoj strani šatora, da sto stoji na severnoj strani.

36 I na vrata naslonu načinićeš zaves od porfire i od skerleta i od crvca i od tankog platna uzvedenog, vezen;

37 I za taj zaves načinićeš pet stupova od drveta sitima, koje ćeš okovati zlatom, sa kukama zlatnim, i salićeš za njih pet stopica od bronze.

1043. 'The cloud' means the obscure light in which the spiritual man dwells in comparison with the celestial man. This becomes clear from what has just been stated concerning the bow; for the bow, or the colour of the bow, is never manifested except within the cloud. As has been stated, it is the obscurity itself through which the sun's rays shine that is converted into different colours, and so the actual colour that is produced is determined by the nature of the obscurity which the brightness of those rays encounters. Similarly with the spiritual man. The obscurity with him, which is called 'the cloud' here, is falsity, and is the same as the intellectual side of his proprium. When innocence, charity, and mercy from the Lord are instilled into this part of his proprium, the cloud is no longer seen as falsity but as an appearance of truth together with [real] truth from the Lord. Consequently there is the likeness of a coloured bow. The conversion of something spiritual that defies description is involved here, but how else the matter can be explained intelligibly except through the way a person perceives colours and how they are produced I do not know.

[2] The nature of this cloud with someone who is regenerate is clear from what his state was prior to regeneration. A person is regenerated by means of the things he supposes to be the truths of faith. Everyone supposes that his own accepted belief is the truth, and on this basis acquires a conscience. Consequently once he has acquired a conscience, acting contrary to the things that have been impressed on him as being the truths of faith is to him acting contrary to conscience. This applies to everyone who is regenerate. For many from whatever accepted belief are regenerated by the Lord; and once regenerated, they do not receive any direct revelation, but only those things which are implanted through the Word and preaching of it. But because they receive charity, the Lord operates by way of charity into the cloud that is theirs. From this, light is provided, as when the sun pierces a cloud which thereby becomes more illumined and made varicoloured. So also within the cloud [of falsity] the likeness of a bow is manifested. The thinner the cloud therefore, that is, the more it consists of many truths of faith blending together, the more beautiful is the bow; but the thicker this cloud, that is, the less it consists of truths of faith, the less beautiful the bow. Innocence adds considerably to its beauty, bringing so to speak a living brightness to the colours.

[3] All appearances of truth are 'clouds' which envelop a person when he is confined to the sense of the letter of the Word, for the Word speaks according to appearances. Yet, even though he remains in appearances, since he believes the Word in simplicity and has charity, that cloud is relatively thin - it being within this cloud that the Lord forms conscience in the case of one who is inside the Church. In addition, all forms of ignorance of truth are 'clouds', such as envelop a person who does not know what the truth of faith is, in general when he does not know what the Word is, and still more when he has not heard about the Lord. It is within this cloud that the Lord forms conscience in the case of one who is outside the Church; for in ignorance itself there can be innocence, and so charity. All falsities too are 'clouds', but these clouds are the darkness that exists either with people who have a false conscience, as described already, or with people who have none at all. These are in general the various types of clouds. As regards the number of them, the clouds with an individual are so numerous and so thick that if he knew he would be amazed that rays of light from the Lord could ever pierce them at all and that anyone could be regenerated. The person who imagines he has a very small amount of cloud sometimes has a vast quantity of it, while the one who believes he has a vast quantity of cloud has less.

[4] Such clouds reside with the spiritual man, but with the celestial man not so many do so since with him love to the Lord is present, which has been implanted in the will part of his mind. He does not therefore receive conscience from the Lord as the spiritual man does, but perception of good and from this of truth. When the will part of someone's mind is such that he is able to receive rays from a celestial flame, the understanding part is lit up by it, and he knows and perceives from love all things that are truths of faith. The will part is then like a little sun from which rays pass into the understanding part. Such was the nature of the member of the Most Ancient Church. But when the will part of his mind has become utterly corrupted and hellish, and a new will, which is conscience, is therefore formed in the understanding part, as happened to the member of the Ancient Church and happens now to every regenerate member of the spiritual Church, there is thick cloud; for, having no ability to perceive what good and truth are, he must gain a knowledge of this through learning about them. At the same time falsity, which is the obscurity of the cloud, is constantly flowing in from the black will part of his mind, that is, from hell by way of that will part. For this reason the understanding part with the spiritual man can never be enlightened in the way that it is with the celestial man. This is why 'cloud' here means the obscure light in which the spiritual man dwells in comparison with the celestial man.
