YHVH said to Moses,


2 "On the first day of the first month you shall erect the tabernacle of the tent of meeting.

The first day of the first month in the Hebraic calendar is the first day of the Spring Equinox, the time of new beginnings.  It is the perfect time for the birth of the new spiritual being, which will hold communion with YHVH (or Divine Mind) in the tabernacle or Inner Temple.

 

3 And you shall put in it the ark of the testimony, and you shall screen the ark with the veil.

 

4 And you shall bring in the table, and set its arrangements in order; and you shall bring in the lampstand, and set up its lamps.

 

5 And you shall put the golden altar for incense before the ark of the testimony, and set up the screen for the door of the tabernacle.

 

6 You shall set the altar of burnt offering before the door of the tabernacle of the tent of meeting,

 

7 and place the laver between the tent of meeting and the altar, and put water in it.

 

8 And you shall set up the court round about, and hang up the screen for the gate of the court.

 

9 Then you shall take the anointing oil, and anoint the tabernacle and all that is in it, and consecrate it and all its furniture; and it shall become holy.

 

10 You shall also anoint the altar of burnt offering and all its utensils, and consecrate the altar; and the altar shall be most holy.

 

11 You shall also anoint the laver and its base, and consecrate it.

 

12 Then you shall bring Aaron and his sons to the door of the tent of meeting, and shall wash them with water,

 

13 and put upon Aaron the holy garments, and you shall anoint him and consecrate him, that he may serve me as priest.

 

14 You shall bring his sons also and put coats on them,

 

15 and anoint them, as you anointed their father, that they may serve me as priests: and their anointing shall admit them to a perpetual priesthood throughout their generations."

It is only Aaron which means enlightened or enlightener and his descendants, meaning those who are also enlightened, who will serve as priest in this sanctuary, for it is only the enlightened soul who can enter.  This is how it always has been and as it always shall be.

 

16 Thus did Moses; according to all that YHVH commanded him, so he did.

 

17 And in the first month in the second year, on the first day of the month, the tabernacle was erected.

 

18 Moses erected the tabernacle; he laid its bases, and set up its frames, and put in its poles, and raised up its pillars;

 

19 and he spread the tent over the tabernacle, and put the covering of the tent over it, as YHVH had commanded Moses.

 

20 And he took the testimony and put it into the ark, and put the poles on the ark, and set the mercy seat above on the ark;

 

21 and he brought the ark into the tabernacle, and set up the veil of the screen, and screened the ark of the testimony; as YHVH had commanded Moses.
