Exodus 38 & 39 - So Moses blessed them

38:1-31

We continue with the parallel passages, or rather the enactment of the commands given in earlier passages. In chapter 38 we have:

38:1-7 27:1-8

38:9-20 27:9-19

There are two additions here, Ex 38:8. The mirrors of the time were made of highly polished bronze. 38:21-31 gives details of the amount of various materials that were used.


39:1-43

39:2-7 28:6-14

39:8-21 28:15-28

39:22-31 28:31-43

39:32-41 35:10-19

The chapter, and this long section, finishes with Moses inspecting the work. Moses finds that all the work had been carried out according to the Lord’s instructions. So Moses blesses them. There is a parallel here to the creation account (Gen 1:31).
