## Exodus 40:18-20 in Context (Verses 15–23 KJV)
 
 [15 ](/kjv/exodus/40/15) And thou shalt anoint them, as thou didst anoint their father, that they may minister unto me in the priest’s office: for their anointing shall surely be an everlasting priesthood throughout their generations.
 
 [16 ](/kjv/exodus/40/16) Thus did Moses: according to all that the LORD commanded him, so did he.
 
 [17 ](/kjv/exodus/40/17) ¶ And it came to pass in the first month in the second year, on the first *day* of the month, *that* the tabernacle was reared up.
 
 [18 ](/kjv/exodus/40/18) And Moses reared up the tabernacle, and fastened his sockets, and set up the boards thereof, and put in the bars thereof, and reared up his pillars.
 
 [19 ](/kjv/exodus/40/19) And he spread abroad the tent over the tabernacle, and put the covering of the tent above upon it; as the LORD commanded Moses.
 
 [20 ](/kjv/exodus/40/20) ¶ And he took and put the testimony into the ark, and set the staves on the ark, and put the mercy seat above upon the ark:
 
 [21 ](/kjv/exodus/40/21) And he brought the ark into the tabernacle, and set up the vail of the covering, and covered the ark of the testimony; as the LORD commanded Moses.
 
 [22 ](/kjv/exodus/40/22) ¶ And he put the table in the tent of the congregation, upon the side of the tabernacle northward, without the vail.
 
 [23 ](/kjv/exodus/40/23) And he set the bread in order upon it before the LORD; as the LORD had commanded Moses.
