After Moses gave the blessing, then the Lord said to him for the Tabernacle, the Tent of Meeting to be set up on the first day of the first month. The Ark, tables and all of the items that were created for use was to be laid out as planned. Each item would be anointed with oil and then the altar of burnt offerings was to anointed along with the utensils. Then Aaron and his sons were to be washed with water (baptism?) and were then dressed in the appropriate garments to be anointed and consecrated for use. Moses then proceed to carry out the Lord's command and systematically and methodically did all that the Lord asked him to do. Then after the work was completed, the cloud covered the Tent and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle. Moses couldn't enter the Tent of Meeting because the the cloud had settled upon it, and the glory of the Lords filled the tabernacle. The cloud would be used to tell the people of the Lord when to travel and when not to. So they still proceeded with a cloud during the day and fire in the cloud by night.
What a book and what lessons that were learned! I am so glad to have completed this and now move on. Looking forward to the weekend and what that brings. Spending time with the family for the extended weekend and will return to work on Wednesday. The following Friday will be at Princeton due to a doctor's appointment. Weather seems to go good and will start to swing the clubs soon.
Praise for today: If the Lord delights in a man's way, he makes his steps firm; though he stumble, he will not fall, for the Lord upholds him with his hand. Ps. 37: 23 & 24.
