Exodus 40:1-39
40 Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:
2 “On the first day of the first month (New moon of Nisan) you shall set up the tabernacle of the tent of meeting.
3 You shall put in it the ark of the Testimony, and partition off the ark with the veil.
4 You shall bring in the table and arrange the things that are to be set in order on it;
and you shall bring in the lampstand and light its lamps.
5 You shall also set the altar of gold for the incense before the ark of the Testimony,
and put up the screen for the door of the tabernacle.
6 Then you shall set the altar of the burnt offering before the door of the tabernacle of the tent of meeting.
7 And you shall set the laver between the tabernacle of meeting and the altar, and put water in it.
8 You shall set up the court all around, and hang up the screen at the court gate.
EVERY THING that was used to build the Tabernacle was Consecrated and anointed with the anointing oil:
Exodus 40:9-38:
9 “And you shall take the anointing oil, and anoint the tabernacle and all that is in it;
and you shall hallow (consecrate) it and all its utensils, and it shall be holy.
10 You shall anoint the altar of the burnt offering and all its utensils, and consecrate the altar.
The altar shall be most holy.
11 And you shall anoint the laver and its base, and consecrate it.
Mikvah:
12 “Then you shall bring Aaron and his sons to the door of the tabernacle of meeting and wash them with water.
THE HIGH PREIST’S GARMENT:
After consecration the priest’s are dressed in Holy garments:
Exodus 40:13-16
13 You shall put the holy garments on Aaron, and anoint him and consecrate him, that he may minister to Me as priest.
14 And you shall bring his sons and clothe them with tunics.
15 You shall anoint them, as you anointed their father, that they may minister to Me as priests;
for their anointing shall surely be an everlasting priesthood throughout their generations.”

Exodus 40:17–39
17 And it came to pass in the first month (called Nisan) of the second year,
on the first day (New moon – beginning) of the month, that the tabernacle was raised up.
18 So Moses raised up the tabernacle, fastened its sockets, set up its boards, put in its bars, and raised up its pillars.
19 And he spread out the tent over the tabernacle and put the covering of the tent on top of it, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
20 He took the Testimony and put it into the ark, inserted the poles through the rings of the ark, and put the mercy seat on top of the ark.
21 And he brought the ark into the tabernacle, hung up the veil of the covering, and partitioned off the ark of the Testimony, as the Lord had commanded Moses.

24 He put the lampstand in the tabernacle of meeting, across from the table, on the south side of the tabernacle;

The Altar of sacrificing:
Exodus 40:29

and offered upon it the burnt offering and the grain offering, as the Lord had commanded Moses.

31 and Moses, Aaron, and his sons would wash their hands and their feet with water from it.
32 Whenever they went into the tabernacle of meeting, and when they came near the altar, they washed, as the Lord had commanded Moses.
33 And he raised up the court all around the tabernacle and the altar, and hung up the screen of the court gate. So Moses finished the work.

Obedience – led by the cloud:
Exodus 40:36-39
36 Whenever the cloud was taken up from above the tabernacle, the children of Israel would go onward in all their journeys.
37 But if the cloud was not taken up, then they did not journey till the day that it was taken up.
38 For the cloud of the Lord was above the tabernacle by day, and fire was over it by night, Me in the sight of all the house of Israel, throughout all their journeys.
