A Manual of Worship at the Tabernacle
THE TABERNACLE SET UP AND DEDICATED
The tabernacle set up and dedicated. Then the cloud [the Shekinah, God’s visible, dwelling presence] covered the Tent of Meeting, and the glory and brilliance of the LORD filled the tabernacle.
DIRECTIONS FOR ERECTING THE TABERNACLE
Directions for erecting the Tabernacle. Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, “On the first day of the first month (Abib) you shall set up the tabernacle of the Tent of Meeting [of God with you].
CONSTRUCTION OF THE TABERNACLE
Then Moses said to the Israelites, “See, the LORD called by name Bezalel son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah; and He has filled him with the Spirit of God, with wisdom and skill, with intelligence and understanding, and with knowledge in all [areas of] craftsmanship.
FREE GIFTS FOR THE TABERNACLE
Everyone whose heart stirred him and everyone whose spirit moved him came and brought the LORD’S offering to be used for the Tent of Meeting, for all its service, and for the holy garments.
THE SABBATH AND OFFERINGS TO GOD.
. “For six days work may be done, but the seventh day shall be a holy day for you, a Sabbath of complete rest to the LORD; whoever does any kind of work on that day shall be put to death. You shall not kindle a fire in any of your dwellings on the Sabbath day.”
THE COVENANT OF THE LAW RENEWED
The covenant of the law renewed. Then the LORD said to Moses, “Cut two tablets of stone like the first, and I will write on these tablets the words that were on the first tablets which you smashed [when you learned of Israel’s idolatry].
GOD’S PRESENCE PROMISED AND HIS GLORY SHOWN
God’s presence promised and His glory shown. Now therefore, I pray you, if I have found favor in Your sight, let me know Your ways so that I may know You [becoming more deeply and intimately acquainted with You, recognizing and understanding Your ways more clearly] and that I may find grace and favor in Your sight. And consider also, that this nation is Your people.”And the LORD said, “My presence shall go with you, and I will give you rest [by bringing you and the people into the promised land].”
THE ANGEL LEADER AND THE HUMAN INTERCESSOR
The angel leader and the human intercessor. I will send an Angel before you and I will drive out the Canaanite, the Amorite, the Hittite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite.
MOSES PUNISHES IDOLATERS AND PRAYS FOR THE PEOPLE
Moses punishes idolaters and prays for the people. He said to them, “Thus says the LORD God of Israel, ‘Every man strap his sword on his thigh and go back and forth from gate to gate throughout the camp, and every man kill his brother, and every man his friend, and every man his neighbor [all who continue pagan worship].'” Then the next day Moses said to the people, “You have committed a great sin. Now I will go up to the LORD; perhaps I can make atonement for your sin.”
