9482. 'And the pattern of all its vessels' means a representative of all the celestial and spiritual realities that the Lord is the source of. This is clear from the meaning of 'the pattern' as a representative, as immediately above in 9481; and from the meaning of 'vessels' as truths, dealt with in 3068, 3079, 3316, 3318, at this point the celestial and spiritual realities that the Lord is the source of, since the word 'vessels' implies all the objects that were within and constituted the tabernacle, and these mean celestial and spiritual realities when the actual 'tabernacle' means heaven where the Lord is, 9479, and 'the Testimony' within the ark means the Lord Himself.
