1 And he made the altar of burnt-offering of shittim wood: five cubits was the length of it, and five cubits the breadth of it; it was foursquare; and its hight was three cubits.

2 And he made its horns on the four corners of it; its horns were of the same: and he overlaid it with brass.

3 And he made all the vessels of the altar, the pots, and the shovels, and the basins, and the flesh-hooks, and the fire-pans: all the vessels of it he made of brass.

4 And he made for the altar a brazen grate of net-work under the compass of it beneath to the midst of it.

5 And he cast four rings for the four ends of the grate of brass, to be places for the staffs.

6 And he made the staffs of shittim wood, and overlaid them with brass.

7 And he put the staffs into the rings on the sides of the altar, to bear it with; he made the altar hollow with boards.

8 And he made the laver of brass, and the foot of it of brass, of the looking-glasses of the women assembling, who assembled at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.

9 And he made the court: on the south side southward the hangings of the court were of fine twined linen, a hundred cubits:

10 Their pillars were twenty, and their brazen sockets twenty; the hooks of the pillars, and their fillets, were of silver.

11 And for the north side, the hangings were a hundred cubits, their pillars were twenty, and their sockets of brass twenty: the hooks of the pillars, and their filets, of silver.

12 And for the west side were hangings of fifty cubits, their pillars ten, and their sockets ten; the hooks of the pillars, and their fillets, of silver.

13 And for the east side eastward fifty cubits.

14 The hangings of the one side of the gate were fifteen cubits; their pillars three, and their sockets three.

15 And for the other side of the court-gate, on this hand and that hand, were hangings of fifteen cubits; their pillars three, and their sockets three.

16 All the hangings of the court round about were of fine twined linen.

17 And the sockets for the pillars were of brass; the hooks of the pillars, and their fillets, of silver; and the overlaying of their capitals of silver; and all the pillars of the court were filleted with silver.

18 And the hanging for the gate of the court was needle-work, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen: and twenty cubits was the length, and the hight in the breadth was five cubits, answerable to the hangings of the court.

19 And their pillars were four, and their sockets of brass four; their hooks of silver, and the overlaying of their capitals and their fillets of silver.

20 And all the pins of the tabernacle, and of the court round about, were of brass.

21 This is the sum of the tabernacle, even of the tabernacle of testimony, as it was counted, according to the commandment of Moses, for the service of the Levites, by the hand of Ithamar, son to Aaron the priest.

22 And Bezaleel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, made all that the LORD commanded Moses.

23 And with him was Aholiab, son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, an engraver, and a skillful workman, and an embroiderer in blue, and in purple, and in scarlet, and fine linen.

24 All the gold that was occupied for the work in all the work of the holy place, even the gold of the offering, was twenty and nine talents, and seven hundred and thirty shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary.

25 And the silver of them that were numbered of the congregation was a hundred talents, and a thousand seven hundred and seventy five shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary:

26 A bekah for every man, that is, half a shekel, after the shekel of the sanctuary, for every one that went to be numbered, from twenty years old and upward, for six hundred thousand and three thousand and five hundred and fifty men.

27 And of the hundred talents of silver were cast the sockets of the sanctuary, and the sockets of the vail; a hundred sockets of the hundred talents, a talent for a socket.

28 And of the thousand seven hundred seventy and five shekels he made hooks for the pillars, and overlaid their capitals, and filleted them.

29 And the brass of the offering was seventy talents, and two thousand and four hundred shekels.

30 And with this he made the sockets to the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and the brazen altar, and the brazen grate for it, and all the vessels of the altar,

31 And the sockets of the court round about, and the sockets of the court gate, and all the pins of the tabernacle, and all the pins of the court round about.

10767. Exodus 37

1. And Bezalel made the ark of shittim wood; two cubits and a half was its length, and a cubit and a half its breadth, and a cubit and a half its height.

2. And he overlaid it with pure gold on the inside and on the outside, and made for it a rim of gold round about.

3. And he cast four rings of gold for it on its four corners; and two rings were on one rib 1 of it and two rings on the other rib 1 of it.

4. And he made poles from shittim wood, and overlaid them with gold.

5. And he put the poles into the rings on the ribs 2 of the ark, to carry the ark.

6. And he made the mercy-seat from pure gold; two cubits and a half was its length, and a cubit and a half its breadth.

7. And he made the two cherubs from gold; solid he made them 3 at the two ends of the mercy-seat.

8. One cherub was at the end on one side, and one cherub was at the end on the other side; of one piece with the mercy-seat he made the cherubs 4 at its two ends.

9. And the cherubs were spreading out their wings upwards, providing protection over the mercy-seat with their wings, and their faces of a man towards his brother 5 ; the faces of the cherubs were towards the mercy-seat.

10. And he made the table from shittim wood; two cubits was its length, and a cubit its breadth, and a cubit and a half its height.

11. And he overlaid it with pure gold; and he made for it a rim of gold round about.

12. And he made for it a rail of a hand's breadth round about; and he made a rim of gold for its rail round about.

13. And he cast for it four rings of gold, and he put the rings on the four corners which were on its four feet.

14. The rings were close to the rail, as receptacles for the poles to carry the table.

15. And he made the poles from shittim wood, and overlaid them with gold, to carry the table.

16. And he made the vessels which went on the table - its dishes, and its cups, and its small dishes, and its small brushes, with which it was to be covered - from pure gold.

17. And he made the lampstand from pure gold; solid made he the lampstand 6 . Its leg 7 and its branch, its cups, its pomegranates, and its flowers were of one piece with it 8 .

18. And there were 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.

19. There were three almond-shaped cups on one branch, a pomegranate and a flower, and three almond-shaped cups going out of one branch 9 , a pomegranate and a flower - thus for the six branches going out of the lampstand.

20. And on [the leg 7 of] the lampstand there were four almond-shaped cups, its pomegranates and its flowers.

21. And there was a pomegranate under [the first] two branches out of it, and a pomegranate under [the second] two branches out of it, and a pomegranate under [the third] two branches out of it - for the six branches going out of it.

22. Their pomegranates and their branches were of one piece with it 8 ; the whole of it was one solid [piece made] from pure gold.

23. And he made its seven lamps, and its tongs and its trowels 10 , from pure gold.

24. With a talent of pure gold he made it, and all its vessels.

25. And he made the altar of incense from shittim wood. A cubit was its length, and a cubit its breadth; it was square. And two cubits was its height. Its horns were of one piece with it 8 .

26. And he overlaid it with pure gold, its roof 11 , and its walls 12 round about, and its horns; and he made for it a rim of gold round about.

27. And two rings of gold he made for it under its rim on its two ribs, on its two sides, to serve as receptacles for the poles, to carry it on them.

28. And he made the poles from shittim wood, and overlaid them with gold.

29. And he made the holy anointing oil 13 , and the pure incense of spices with the work of a perfumer.

CONTENTS

Since the subject in this chapter is the ark, the lampstand, and the altar of incense, and the description of them here is similar to that which has appeared before in Chapter Exodus 25 [and Chapter Exodus 30], where an explanation of the internal sense of every detail was given, these things are passed over here without any further explanation.
