Exodus 39

1 And from the needlework of blue and purple and red they made the robes used for the work of the holy place, and the holy robes for Aaron, as the Lord had given orders to Moses.

2 The ephod he made of gold and blue and purple and red and the best linen;

3 Hammering the gold into thin plates and cutting it into wires to be worked into the blue and the purple and the red and the linen by the designer.

4 And they made two bands for joining its edges together at the top of the arms.

5 And the beautifully worked band which went on it was of the same design and the same material, worked in gold and blue and purple and red and twisted linen-work, as the Lord gave orders to Moses.

6 Then they made the beryl stones, fixed in twisted frames of gold and cut like the cutting of a stamp, with the names of the children of Israel.

7 These he put on the ephod, over the arm-holes, to be stones of memory for the children of Israel, as the Lord had said to Moses.

8 The priest's bag was designed like the ephod, of the best linen worked with gold and blue and purple and red.

9 It was square and folded in two, as long and as wide as the stretch of a man's hand;

10 And on it they put four lines of stones: in the first line was a carnelian, a chrysolite, and an emerald;

11 In the second, a ruby, a sapphire, and an onyx;

12 In the third, a jacinth, an agate, and an amethyst;

13 In the fourth, a topaz, a beryl, and a jasper; they were fixed in twisted frames of gold.

14 There were twelve stones for the twelve tribes of Israel; on every one the name of one of the tribes of Israel was cut, like the cutting of a stamp.

15 And on the bag they put gold chains, twisted like cords.

16 And they made two gold frames and two gold rings, the rings being fixed to the ends of the priest's bag;

17 And they put the two twisted chains on the two rings at the ends of the priest's bag;

18 And the other two ends of the chains were joined to the two frames and fixed to the front of the ephod over the arm-holes.

19 And they made two rings of gold and put them on the two lower ends of the bag, on the inner side nearest to the ephod.

20 And two other gold rings were put on the front of the ephod, over the arm-holes, at the join, and over the worked band.

21 And the rings on the bag were fixed to the rings of the ephod by a blue cord, keeping it in place over the band, so that the bag might not get loose, as the Lord gave orders to Moses.

22 The robe which went with the ephod was made all of blue;

23 With a hole at the top in the middle, like the hole in the coat of a fighting-man, edged with a band to make it strong.

24 The skirts of the robe were worked all round with fruits in blue and purple and red made of twisted linen.

25 And between the fruits all round the skirt they put gold bells, as the Lord gave orders to Moses.

26 All round the skirt of the robe were bells and fruits in turn.

27 The coats for Aaron and his sons they made of the best linen;

28 And the twisted head-dress for Aaron, and beautiful head-dresses of linen, and linen trousers,

29 And a linen band worked with a design of blue and purple and red, as the Lord had said to Moses.

30 The plate for the holy crown was made of the best gold, and on it were cut these words, holy TO THE LORD.

31 It was fixed to the head-dress by a blue cord, as the Lord had given orders to Moses.

32 So all the work on the House of the Tent of meeting was done; as the Lord had given orders to Moses, so the children of Israel did it.

33 Then they took the House to Moses, the tent with all the things for it; its hooks, its boards, its rods, its pillars, and its bases;

34 The outer cover of sheepskins coloured red, and the cover of leather, and the veil for the doorway;

35 The ark of the law, with its rods and its cover;

36 The table, with all its vessels and the holy bread;

37 The support for the lights, with the vessels for the lights to be put in their places on it, and all its vessels, and the oil for the lights;

38 And the gold altar, and the holy oil, and the sweet perfume for burning, and the curtain for the doorway of the tent;

39 And the brass altar, with its network of brass, and its rods and all its vessels, and the washing-vessel and its base;

40 The hangings for the open space, with the pillars and their bases, and the curtain for the doorway, and the cords and nails, and all the instruments necessary for the work of the House of the Tent of meeting;

41 The robes for use in the holy place, and the holy robes for Aaron and his sons when acting as priests.

42 The children of Israel did everything as the Lord had given orders to Moses.

43 Then Moses, when he saw all their work and saw that they had done everything as the Lord had said, gave them his blessing.

Lamp

  

'A lamp' signifies truths of faith. It can also signifying celestial things from which spiritual matters proceed. 'A lamp' or 'candle' signifies intelligence in both senses.

In Matthew 25:4, this signifies love.

The 'ordination of the lamp, from the evening until the morning,' as in Exodus 27:20, 21, signifies the perpetual influx of the good and truth from the Lord always in every state. Its light signifies illumination from the Lord.

In Revelation 22, this signifies natural light from self-derived intelligence.

Revelation 22

1 He showed me a river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb,

2 in the middle of its street. On this side of the river and on that was the tree of life, bearing twelve kinds of fruits, yielding its fruit every month. The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.

3 There will be no curse any more. The throne of God and of the Lamb will be in it, and his servants serve him.

4 They will see his face, and his name will be on their foreheads.

5 There will be no night, and they need no lamp light; for the Lord God will illuminate them. They will reign forever and ever.

6 He said to me, "These words are faithful and true. The Lord God of the spirits of the prophets sent his angel to show to his bondservants the things which must happen soon."

7 "Behold, I come quickly. Blessed is he who keeps the words of the prophecy of this book."

8 Now I, John, am the one who heard and saw these things. When I heard and saw, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel who had shown me these things.

9 He said to me, "See you don't do it! I am a fellow bondservant with you and with your brothers, the prophets, and with those who keep the words of this book. Worship God."

10 He said to me, "Don't seal up the words of the prophecy of this book, for the time is at hand.

11 He who acts unjustly, let him act unjustly still. He who is filthy, let him be filthy still. He who is righteous, let him do righteousness still. He who is holy, let him be holy still."

12 "Behold, I come quickly. My reward is with me, to repay to each man according to his work.

13 I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End.

14 Blessed are those who do his commandments, that they may have the right to the tree of life, and may enter in by the gates into the city.

15 Outside are the dogs, the sorcerers, the sexually immoral, the murderers, the idolaters, and everyone who loves and practices falsehood.

16 I, Jesus, have sent my angel to testify these things to you for the assemblies. I am the root and the offspring of David; the Bright and Morning Star."

17 The Spirit and the bride say, "Come!" He who hears, let him say, "Come!" He who is thirsty, let him Come. He who desires, let him take the water of life freely.

18 I testify to everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book, if anyone adds to them, may God add to him the plagues which are written in this book.

19 If anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, may God take away his part from the tree of life, and out of the holy city, which are written in this book.

20 He who testifies these things says, "Yes, I come quickly." Amen! Yes, come, Lord Jesus.

21 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with all the saints. Amen.
