Making the sacred box

Exo 37:1–9

Exo 25:10–22

37:1 Making the sacred box

(Exo. 25:10-22)

37Then Bezalel made the sacred chest from acacia wood—it was 1.2m long, 0.75m wide, and 0.75m high. 2He overlaid both the inside and the outside with pure gold, and made a gold moulding all around it, 3and he cast four rings of gold and attached them to its four feet—two rings on each one side. 4He made two acacia wood poles and overlaid them with gold, 5and he put the poles into the rings on the sides of the box for carrying it.

6Then he made the atonement platform from pure gold to fit as the lid for the box, so it was also 1.2m long and 0.75m wide, 7then from the ends of the lid, he hammered the gold to form two winged creatures. 8There was a winged creature sitting on each end of the atonement platform made from its two ends, 9and they were spreading their wings upwards to cover over the platform. They faced each other, looking down towards the atonement platform.

25:10 The box to hold the stone slabs

(Exo. 37:1-9)

10They must make a wooden chest from acacia wood. It should be 125cm long, with the width and the height being 75cm. 11It must be overlaid with pure gold sheeting on the outside and the inside, and have a gold moulding fitted all around it. 12Four gold rings must be cast and attached to the four feet—two rings on each side. 13Make two carrying poles from acacia wood and overlay them with gold sheeting. 14Those poles will be inserted through the rings on the sides of the chest so it can be picked up and carried on them. 15The poles must be kept in the rings on the chest—they mustn’t be removed. 16The two stone slabs that I’ll give you with our agreement inscribed on them must be placed inside the chest.

17You must make a lid the same length and width as the chest. It must be made of pure gold and will be known as ‘the atonement platform’.[ref] 18Then make a pair of winged-creatures from gold that’s hammered from the two ends of the atonement platform. 19Yes, make one winged-creature from each end of the gold lid material. 20Their up-lifted wings should spread out covering the atonement platform and they should be facing each other across the top of the platform. 21When I give you the stone slabs, put them inside the box and then fasten the atonement platform on top to form the lid. 22Then I’ll meet with you there, and from the atonement platform between the two winged-creatures and above the stone slabs, I’ll be able to tell you my commands to pass on to the Israelis.
