Notes on this text (2)
- The Old Testament is translated from the Hebrew, not from the Septuagint read in the Orthodox Church; there are no deuterocanonical books.
- Katharevousa (learned 19th-century Greek), as in the CrossWire module (text from theword.gr).
1 Και ελάλησε Κύριος προς τον Μωϋσήν, λέγων,
1 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
2 Ειπέ προς τους υιούς Ισραήλ να φέρωσι προς εμέ προσφοράν· παρά παντός ανθρώπου προαιρουμένου εν τη καρδία αυτού θέλετε λάβει την προσφοράν μου.
2 “Speak to the children of Israel, that they take an offering for me. From everyone whose heart makes him willing you shall take my offering.

22 There I will meet with you, and I will tell you from above the mercy seat, from between the two cherubim which are on the ark of the covenant, all that I command you for the children of Israel.
23 Και θέλεις κάμει τράπεζαν εκ ξύλου σιττίμ· δύο πηχών το μήκος αυτής, και μιας πήχης το πλάτος αυτής, το δε ύψος αυτής μιας πήχης και ημισείας·

26 You shall make four rings of gold for it, and put the rings in the four corners that are on its four feet.
27 οι κρίκοι θέλουσιν είσθαι υπό το χείλος θήκαι των μοχλών, διά να βαστάζηται η τράπεζα.
27 The rings shall be close to the rim, for places for the poles to carry the table.

31 “You shall make a lamp stand of pure gold. The lamp stand shall be made of hammered work. Its base, its shaft, its cups, its buds, and its flowers shall be of one piece with it.
32 Και θέλουσιν εξέρχεσθαι εξ κλάδοι εκ των πλαγίων αυτής· τρεις κλάδοι της λυχνίας εκ του ενός πλαγίου, και τρεις κλάδοι της λυχνίας εκ του άλλου πλαγίου·
32 There shall be six branches going out of its sides: three branches of the lamp stand out of its one side, and three branches of the lamp stand out of its other side;
33 εις τον ένα κλάδον θέλουσιν είσθαι τρεις λεκάναι αμυγδαλοειδείς, εις κόμβος και εν άνθος· και εις τον άλλον κλάδον τρεις λεκάναι αμυγδαλοειδείς, εις κόμβος και εν άνθος· ούτω θέλει γείνει εις τους εξ κλάδους, τους εξερχομένους εκ της λυχνίας.
33 three cups made like almond blossoms in one branch, a bud and a flower; and three cups made like almond blossoms in the other branch, a bud and a flower, so for the six branches going out of the lamp stand;
34 Και εις την λυχνίαν θέλουσιν είσθαι τέσσαρες λεκάναι αμυγδαλοειδείς, οι κόμβοι αυτών και τα άνθη αυτών.
34 and in the lamp stand four cups made like almond blossoms, its buds and its flowers;
35 Και θέλει είσθαι εις κόμβος υπό τους δύο κλάδους εξ αυτής, και εις κόμβος υπό τους δύο κλάδους εξ αυτής, και εις κόμβος υπό τους δύο κλάδους εξ αυτής, εις τους εξ κλάδους τους εξερχομένους εκ της λυχνίας.
35 and a bud under two branches of one piece with it, and a bud under two branches of one piece with it, and a bud under two branches of one piece with it, for the six branches going out of the lamp stand.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
… taken care that the types were found in things more exactly correspondent and more holy; and, above all, in the case of the Ark of the Covenant, on account of which the whole tabernacle of witness was formed.

… half, its breadth one cubit and a half, its height one cubit and a half; but such a number of cubits in no respect corresponds with their system, yet by it the type ought to have been, beyond everything else, clearly set forth. The mercy-seat also does in like manner not at all harmonize with their expositions.
The mercy-seat also does in like manner not at all harmonize with their expositions. Moreover, the table of shew-bread was two cubits in length, while its height was a cubit and a half.
