Exodus 40:1-15

GOD spoke to Moses: “On the first day of the first month, set up The Dwelling, the Tent of Meeting. Place the Chest of The Testimony in it and screen the Chest with the curtain. “Bring in the Table and set it, arranging its Lampstand and lamps. “Place the Gold Altar of Incense before the Chest of The Testimony and hang the curtain at the door of The Dwelling. “Place the Altar of Whole-Burnt-Offering at the door of The Dwelling, the Tent of Meeting. “Place the Washbasin between the Tent of Meeting and the Altar and fill it with water. “Set up the Courtyard on all sides and hang the curtain at the entrance to the Courtyard. “Then take the anointing oil and anoint The Dwelling and everything in it; consecrate it and all its furnishings so that it becomes holy. Anoint the Altar of Whole-Burnt-Offering and all its utensils, consecrating the Altar so that it is completely holy. Anoint the Washbasin and its base: consecrate it. “Finally, bring Aaron and his sons to the entrance of the Tent of Meeting and wash them with water. Dress Aaron in the sacred vestments. Anoint him. Set him apart to serve me as priest. Bring his sons and put tunics on them. Anoint them, just as you anointed their father, to serve me as priests. Their anointing will bring them into a perpetual priesthood, down through the generations.”
