16 du skal anbringe Taget på Arken, og det skal ikke rage længer ud end een Alen fra oven; på Arkens Side skal du sætte Døren, og du skal indrette den med et nederste, et mellemste og et øverste Stokværk.

572. Verse 3. And Jehovah said, My spirit shall not reprove man forever, for that he is flesh; and his days shall be a hundred and twenty years. By “Jehovah’s saying My spirit shall not always reprove man” is signified that man would not be so led any longer; “for that he is flesh” signifies because he had become corporeal; “and his days shall be a hundred and twenty years” signifies that he ought to have remains of faith. It is also a prediction concerning a future church.
