Exodus 40: 16- 21, 34- 36
40:16 And Moses raised it up, and he positioned the panels as well as the bases and the bars, and he set up the columns,
40:17 and he stretched out the roof over the tabernacle, imposing a cover above it, just as the Lord had decreed.
40:18 And he placed the testimony in the ark, applying the bars beneath, and the oracle above.
40:19 And when he had brought the ark into the tabernacle, he drew the veil before it, in order to fulfill the commandment of the Lord.
40:20 And he placed the table in the tabernacle of the testimony, at the north side, beyond the veil,
40:21 arranging before it the bread of the presence, just as the Lord had instructed Moses.
40:34 Whenever the cloud departed from the tabernacle, the sons of Israel set out by their companies.
40:35 But if it remained hanging over it, they remained in the same place.
40:36 Certainly, the cloud of the Lord lay over the tabernacle by day, and the fire by night, being seen by all the people of Israel throughout all their resting places.
Gospel
The Holy Gospel According to Matthew 13: 47-53
13:47 | Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net cast into the sea, which gathers together all kinds of fish. |
13:48 | When it has been filled, drawing it out and sitting beside the shore, they selected the good into vessels, but the bad they threw away. |
13:49 | So shall it be at the consummation of the age. The Angels shall go forth and separate the bad from the midst of the just. |
13:50 | And they shall cast them into the furnace of fire, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. |
13:51 | Have you understood all these things?” They say to him, “Yes.” |
13:52 | He said to them, “Therefore, every scribe well-taught about the kingdom of heaven, is like a man, the father of a family, who offers from his storehouse both the new and the old.” |
13:53 | And it happened that, when Jesus had completed these parables, he went away from there. |
