Contextual Overview

¹⁶Moses did everything just as the LORD had commanded him. ¹⁷So the tabernacle was set up on the first day of the first month of the second year. ¹⁸When Moses set up the tabernacle, he laid its bases, positioned its frames, inserted its crossbars, and set up its posts. ¹⁹Then he spread the tent over the tabernacle and put the covering over the tent, just as the LORD had commanded him. ²⁰Moses took the Testimony and placed it in the ark, attaching the poles to the ark; and he set the mercy seat atop the ark. ²¹Then he brought the ark into the tabernacle, put up the veil for the screen, and shielded off the Ark of the Testimony, just as the LORD had commanded him. ²²Moses placed the table in the Tent of Meeting on the north side of the tabernacle, outside the veil. ²³He arranged the bread on it before the LORD, just as the LORD had commanded him. ²⁴He also placed the lampstand in the Tent of Meeting opposite the table on the south side of the tabernacle ²⁵and set up the lamps before the LORD, just as the LORD had commanded him.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Moses, and Aaron, and his sons, washed their hands and their feet thereat. This laver was for the priests, and Moses, officiating as a priest, washed in it, with Aaron, and his sons, whom he was now about to consecrate to the priest's office, and invest with it by offering sacrifice for them; Jarchi says this was on the eighth day of the consecration.
