30 And thou shalt rear up the tabernacle according to the fashion thereof which was shewed thee in the mount.

     31 And thou shalt make a veil of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen of cunning work: with cherubims shall it be made: 32 And thou shalt hang it upon four pillars of shittim wood overlaid with gold: their hooks shall be of gold, upon the four sockets of silver. 33 And thou shalt hang up the veil under the taches, that thou mayest bring in thither within the veil the ark of the testimony: and the veil shall divide unto you between the holy place and the most holy. 34 And thou shalt put the mercy seat upon the ark of the testimony in the most holy place. 35 And thou shalt set the table without the veil, and the candlestick over against the table on the side of the tabernacle toward the south: and thou shalt put the table on the north side. 36 And thou shalt make an hanging for the door of the tent, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen, wrought with needlework. 37 And thou shalt make for the hanging five pillars of shittim wood, and overlay them with gold, and their hooks shall be of gold: and thou shalt cast five sockets of brass for them.(KJV)

     1 And thou shalt make an altar of shittim wood, five cubits long, and five cubits broad; the altar shall be foursquare: and the height thereof shall be three cubits. 2 And thou shalt make the horns of it upon the four corners thereof: his horns shall be of the same: and thou shalt overlay it with brass. 3 And thou shalt make his pans to receive his ashes, and his shovels, and his basins, and his fleshhooks, and his firepans: all the vessels thereof thou shalt make of brass. 4 And thou shalt make for it a grate of network of brass; and upon the net shalt thou make four brazen rings in the four corners thereof. 5 And thou shalt put it under the compass of the altar beneath, that the net may be even to the midst of the altar. 6 And thou shalt make staves for the altar, staves of shittim wood, and overlay them with brass. 7 And the staves shall be put into the rings, and the staves shall be upon the two sides of the altar, to bear it. 8 Hollow with boards shalt thou make it: as it was shewed thee in the mount, so shall they make it.(KJV)


Hymn: WS 758:
Christ Is Made the Sure Foundation

Hymnary.org


1. Christ is made the sure foundation, 
Christ, our head and cornerstone, 
Chosen of the Lord and precious, 
Binding all the Church in one; 
Holy Zion’s help forever 
And our confidence alone. 

2. To this temple, where we call You, 
Come, O Lord of hosts, and stay; 
Come with all Your loving kindness, 
Hear Your people as they pray; 
And Your fullest benediction 
Shed within these wall today. 

3. Grant, we pray, to all Your faithful 
All the gifts they ask to gain; 
What they gain from You, forever 
With the blessed to retain; 
And here after in Your glory 
Evermore with You to reign. 

4. Praise and honor to the Father, 
Praise and honor to the Son, 
Praise and honor to the Spirit, 
Ever three and ever one: 
One in might and one in glory 
While unending ages run!
