Exodus 40:18-20

The Voice

¹⁸ Moses raised it. He began by laying down the bases, installing the frame panels, attaching the crossbars, and erecting the posts. ¹⁹ He covered the frame of the tent with the tent fabric and then covered that with other layers they made. He did this exactly as the Eternal One had instructed him.

²⁰ He then placed the stone tablets—as a witness to their agreement—inside the covenant chest. He slid the poles through the rings on the chest and covered the chest with the seat of mercy, where sins are atoned.
