Exodus 36

   
 ²And Moses called Bezaleel and Aholiab, and every wisehearted man in whose heart the LORD had put wisdom, even every one whose heart stirred him up, to come unto the work to do it.

   
 ³And they received from Moses all the offering which the children of Israel had brought for the work of the service of the sanctuary, to make it thereby. And they brought yet unto him freewill offerings every morning.

   
 ⁴And all the wise men who wrought all the work of the sanctuary came every man from his work which they made,

   
 ⁵and they spoke unto Moses, saying, "The people bring much more than enough for the service of the work which the LORD commanded to make."

   
 ⁶And Moses gave a commandment, and they caused it to be proclaimed throughout the camp, saying, "Let neither man nor woman make any more work for the offering of the sanctuary." So the people were restrained from bringing,

   
 ⁷for the supply they had was sufficient for all the work to make it, and too much.

   
 ⁸And every wisehearted man among them who wrought the work of the tabernacle made ten curtains of finetwined linen, and blue and purple and scarlet; with cherubims of skillful work made he them.

   
 ⁹The length of one curtain was twenty and eight cubits, and the breadth of one curtain four cubits; the curtains were all of one size.

   
 ¹⁰And he coupled the five curtains one unto another, and the other five curtains he coupled one unto another.

   
 ¹¹And he made loops of blue on the edge of one curtain from the selvage in the coupling. Likewise he made in the outermost side of another curtain, in the coupling of the second.

   
 ¹²Fifty loops made he in one curtain, and fifty loops made he in the edge of the curtain which was in the coupling of the second; the loops held one curtain to another.

   
 ¹³And he made fifty clasps of gold, and coupled the curtains one unto another with the clasps. So it became one tabernacle.

   
 ¹⁴And he made curtains of goats' hair for the tent over the tabernacle; eleven curtains he made them.

   
 ¹⁵The length of one curtain was thirty cubits, and four cubits was the breadth of one curtain; the eleven curtains were of one size.

   
 ¹⁶And he coupled five curtains by themselves and six curtains by themselves.

   
 ¹⁷And he made fifty loops upon the outermost edge of the curtain in the coupling, and fifty loops made he upon the edge of the curtain which coupleth the second.

   
 ¹⁸And he made fifty clasps of brass to couple the tent together, that it might be one.

   
 ¹⁹And he made a covering for the tent of rams' skins dyed red, and a covering of badgers' skins above that.

   
 ²⁰And he made boards for the tabernacle of shittim wood, standing upright.

   
 ²¹The length of a board was ten cubits, and the breadth of a board one cubit and a half.

   
 ²²One board had two tenons equally distant one from another. Thus did he make for all the boards of the tabernacle.

   
 ²³And he made boards for the tabernacle, twenty boards for the south side southward.

   
 ²⁴And forty sockets of silver he made under the twenty boards: two sockets under one board for his two tenons, and two sockets under another board for his two tenons.

   
 ²⁵And for the other side of the tabernacle, which is toward the north corner, he made twenty boards

   
 ²⁶and their forty sockets of silver: two sockets under one board, and two sockets under another board.

   
 ²⁷And for the sides of the tabernacle westward he made six boards.

   
 ²⁸And two boards made he for the corners of the tabernacle in the two sides.

   
 ²⁹And they were coupled beneath and coupled together at the head thereof to one ring; thus he did to both of them in both the corners.

   
 ³⁰And there were eight boards, and their sockets were sixteen sockets of silver, under every board two sockets.

   
 ³¹And he made bars of shittim wood: five for the boards of the one side of the tabernacle,

   
 ³²and five bars for the boards of the other side of the tabernacle, and five bars for the boards of the tabernacle for the sides westward.

   
 ³³And he made the middle bar to extend through the boards from the one end to the other.

   
 ³⁴And he overlaid the boards with gold, and made their rings of gold to be places for the bars, and overlaid the bars with gold.

   
 ³⁵And he made a veil of blue and purple and scarlet, and finetwined linen; with cherubims he made it of skillful work.

   
 ³⁶And he made thereunto four pillars of shittim wood and overlaid them with gold. Their hooks were of gold, and he cast for them four sockets of silver.

   
 ³⁷And he made a hanging for the tabernacle door of blue and purple and scarlet, and finetwined linen, of needlework,

   
 ³⁸and the five pillars of it with their hooks. And he overlaid their capitals and their fillets with gold, but their five sockets were of brass.

 ⁷And he made two cherubims of gold. Beaten out of one piece made he them on the two ends of the mercy seat:

   
 ⁸one cherub on the end on this side, and another cherub on the other end on that side; out of the mercy seat made he the cherubims on the two ends thereof.

   
 ⁹And the cherubims spread out their wings on high, and covered over the mercy seat with their wings with their faces one toward another; even toward the mercy seat were the faces of the cherubims.

   
 ¹⁰And he made the table of shittim wood. Two cubits was the length thereof, and a cubit the breadth thereof, and a cubit and a half the height thereof.

   
 ¹¹And he overlaid it with pure gold, and made thereunto a crown of gold round about.

   
 ¹²Also he made thereunto a border of a handbreadth round about, and made a crown of gold for the border thereof round about.

   
 ¹³And he cast for it four rings of gold, and put the rings upon the four corners that were in the four feet thereof.

   
 ¹⁴Over against the border were the rings, the places for the staves to bear the table.

   
 ¹⁵And he made the staves of shittim wood to bear the table, and overlaid them with gold.

   
 ¹⁶And he made the vessels which were upon the table -- his dishes and his spoons and his bowls and his covers for covering -- of pure gold.

   
 ¹⁷And he made the candlestick of pure gold; of beaten work made he the candlestick. His shaft, and his branch, his bowls, his buds and his flowers were of the same.

   
 ¹⁸And six branches came out of the sides thereof: three branches of the candlestick out of the one side thereof, and three branches of the candlestick out of the other side thereof.

   
 ¹⁹Three bowls were made after the fashion of almonds on one branch, with a bud and a flower, and three bowls were made like almonds on another branch, with a bud and a flower -- so throughout the six branches going out of the candlestick.

   
 ²⁰And on the candlestick were four bowls made like almonds, with his buds and his flowers,

   
 ²¹and a bud under two branches of the same, and a bud under two branches of the same, and a bud under two branches of the same, according to the six branches going out of it.

   
 ²²Their buds and their branches were of the same; all of it was one beaten work of pure gold.

 ²⁶And he overlaid it with pure gold, both the top of it and the sides thereof round about, and the horns of it; also he made for it a crown of gold round about.

 ²¹This is the account 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 of Aaron the priest.

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

   
 ²³And 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.

   
 ²⁴All the gold that was used 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, according to the shekel of the sanctuary.

   
 ²⁵And the silver of those who were numbered in the congregation was a hundred talents, and a thousand seven hundred and threescore and fifteen shekels, according to the shekel of the sanctuary:

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

   
 ²⁷And of the hundred talents of silver were cast the sockets of the sanctuary and the sockets of the veil: a hundred sockets from the hundred talents, a talent for a socket.

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

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

Matthew 23

   
 ²saying, "The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses' seat.

   
 ³All therefore whatsoever they bid you observe, that observe and do; but do ye not according to their works; for they say, and do not.

   
 ⁴For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay them on men's shoulders, but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers.

   
 ⁵But all their works they do to be seen by men. They make broad their phylacteries, and enlarge the borders of their garments,

   
 ⁶and love the uppermost places at feasts and the chief seats in the synagogues,

   
 ⁷and greetings in the markets, and to be called by men, `Rabbi, Rabbi.'

   
 ⁸But be not ye called `Rabbi,' for One is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren.

   
 ⁹"And call no man your father upon earth, for One is your Father, who is in Heaven.

   
 ¹⁰Neither be ye called masters, for One is your Master, even Christ.

   
 ¹¹But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant.

   
 ¹²And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased, and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted.

   
 ¹³"But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For ye shut up the Kingdom of Heaven against men, for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in.

   
 ¹⁴Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For ye devour widows' houses, and for a pretense make long prayers; therefore ye shall receive the greater damnation.

   
 ¹⁵"Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves.

   
 ¹⁶"Woe unto you, ye blind guides, who say, `Whosoever shall swear by the temple, it is nothing; but whosoever shall swear by the gold of the temple, he is obligated.'

   
 ¹⁷Ye fools and blind! For which is greater, the gold, or the temple that sanctifieth the gold?

   
 ¹⁸And ye say, `Whosoever shall swear by the altar, it is nothing; but whosoever sweareth by the gift that is upon it, he is liable.'

   
 ¹⁹Ye fools and blind! For which is greater, the gift, or the altar that sanctifieth the gift?

   
 ²⁰Whoso therefore shall swear by the altar, sweareth by it and by all things thereon.

   
 ²¹And whoso shall swear by the temple, sweareth by it and by Him that dwelleth therein.

   
 ²²And he that shall swear by Heaven, sweareth by the throne of God and by Him that sitteth thereon.
