Make the tabernacle
Moses, Jesus, and Elijah seem to have been in agreement and there seems to be a commonality or harmony in the Song of Moses and the Song of the Lamb. Ten Commandments

2V It is absolutely foundational in the kingdom that the "children of Israel,... bring God an offering". For that offering to be righteous the "offering: of every man given willingly^[1] with his heart" not forced like the sacrifice of Saul^[2] who foolishly forced an offering like the Corban of Herod and the Pharisees.
From the beginning their was no license by God to force an offering of the people. That would be a return to the bondage of Egypt. Many will not want to hear or know that the Social Security system of FDR and his New Deal which was the old deal of Cain, Nimrod, and Sodom and was the error of the Nicolaitan and Balaam was forbidden and condemned by Christ.^[3]
All forms of forced sacrifice that produce benefits for the people will run to evil if you consent^[4] because they are deceitful meats which are dainties of rulers.^[5]
We can be snared and trapped by the consumption of these benefits and dainties.
The tabernacle was a symbol of that way of righteousness taught by Moses and again by Jesus. It was a reminder in its symbolic construction of this moving monument echoed the patterns of the kingdom. It also housed a unique golden box called the "ark of the covenant" and "ark of the testimony" and "ark of the LORD". But with all its mystery it was not the tabernacle, nor its contents that made Israel a great nation. What made Israel great was the willingness of the people to obey the LORD's directions in their heart and mind in order to be a "government of the people, by the people, and for the people". The viable republic that resulted from this conformity to the righteousness of God, like the early Church, operated within the "perfect law of liberty" by "freewill offerings" only, which in the New Testament were called the "charity" and "love" of the Corban of Christ because they had no need for forced taxation nor the men who "call themselves benefactors" but "exercise authority^[3] one over the other" in order to provide a social safety net for the care of the needy through pure Religion. They followed The Way of righteousness in fellowship and the righteousness of God with no king or no legislature of the world, and no covetous practices which makes men merchandise, curse children, and is idolatry.^[6]
5V Badger^[7] skin was beaded cloth that could provide a covering that would be flexible but not as subject to wind and sun because the beads offer protection and weight. Oxford Assyriologist Stephanie Dalley argues that tachash^[7] does not refer animal skins the connecting together faience (ceramic) beads and attaching them to another material, possibly leather.
10V.. Making the ark of shittim wood... overlay with pure gold, within and without and rings. The mercy seat of pure gold... cherubims on the two ends thereof...
rings be for places of the staves to bear the table.
I will commune with thee from above the mercy seat, from between the two cherubims
And six branches shall come out of the sides of it; three branches of the candlestick

Contributions for the Sanctuary

1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

2 Speak unto the children of Israel, that they bring me an offering: of every man that giveth it willingly^[1] with his heart ye shall take my offering.

Make the tabernacle

3 And this is the offering which ye shall take of them; gold, and silver, and brass,

4 And blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen, and goats' hair,

5 And rams' skins dyed red, and badgers' skins, and shittim wood,

6 Oil for the light, spices for anointing oil, and for sweet incense,

7 Onyx stones, and stones to be set in the ephod, and in the breastplate.

8 And let them make me a sanctuary; that I may dwell among them.

9 According to all that I shew thee, after the pattern of the tabernacle, and the pattern of all the instruments thereof, even so shall ye make it.

Make the ark

10 And they shall make an ark of shittim wood: two cubits and a half shall be the length thereof, and a cubit and a half the breadth thereof, and a cubit and a half the height thereof.

11 And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, within and without shalt thou overlay it, and shalt make upon it a crown of gold round about.

12 And thou shalt cast four rings of gold for it, and put them in the four corners thereof; and two rings shall be in the one side of it, and two rings in the other side of it.

13 And thou shalt make staves of shittim wood, and overlay them with gold.

14 And thou shalt put the staves into the rings by the sides of the ark, that the ark may be borne with them.

15 The staves shall be in the rings of the ark: they shall not be taken from it.

16 And thou shalt put into the ark the testimony which I shall give thee.

17 And thou shalt make a mercy seat of pure gold: two cubits and a half shall be the length thereof, and a cubit and a half the breadth thereof.

18 And thou shalt make two cherubims of gold, of beaten work shalt thou make them, in the two ends of the mercy seat.

19 And make one cherub on the one end, and the other cherub on the other end: even of the mercy seat shall ye make the cherubims on the two ends thereof.

mercy seat

20 And the cherubims shall stretch forth their wings on high, covering the mercy seat with their wings, and their faces shall look one to another; toward the mercy seat shall the faces of the cherubims be.

21 And thou shalt put the mercy seat above upon the ark; and in the ark thou shalt put the testimony that I shall give thee.

22 And there I will meet with thee, and I will commune with thee from above the mercy seat, from between the two cherubims which are upon the ark of the testimony, of all things which I will give thee in commandment unto the children of Israel.

Table of wood

23 Thou shalt also make a table of shittim wood: two cubits shall be the length thereof, and a cubit the breadth thereof, and a cubit and a half the height thereof.

24 And thou shalt overlay it with pure gold, and make thereto a crown of gold round about.

25 And thou shalt make unto it a border of an hand breadth round about, and thou shalt make a golden crown to the border thereof round about.

26 And thou shalt make for it four rings of gold, and put the rings in the four corners that are on the four feet thereof.

27 Over against the border shall the rings be for places of the staves to bear the table.

28 And thou shalt make the staves of shittim wood, and overlay them with gold, that the table may be borne with them.

29 And thou shalt make the dishes thereof, and spoons thereof, and covers thereof, and bowls thereof, to cover withal: of pure gold shalt thou make them.

30 And thou shalt set upon the table shewbread before me alway.

31 And thou shalt make a candlestick of pure gold: of beaten work shall the candlestick be made: his shaft, and his branches, his bowls, his knops, and his flowers, shall be of the same.

Candlesticks

32 And six branches shall come out of the sides of it; three branches of the candlestick out of the one side, and three branches of the candlestick out of the other side:

33 Three bowls made like unto almonds, with a knop and a flower in one branch; and three bowls made like almonds in the other branch, with a knop and a flower: so in the six branches that come out of the candlestick.

34 And in the candlestick shall be four bowls made like unto almonds, with their knops and their flowers.

35 And there shall be a knop under two branches of the same, and a knop under two branches of the same, and a knop under two branches of the same, according to the six branches that proceed out of the candlestick.

36 Their knops and their branches shall be of the same: all it shall be one beaten work of pure gold.

37 And thou shalt make the seven lamps thereof: and they shall light the lamps thereof, that they may give light over against it.

38 And the tongs thereof, and the snuffdishes thereof, shall be of pure gold.

39 Of a talent of pure gold shall he make it, with all these vessels.

Covetousness is idolatry
Colossians 3:5 "Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry: 6 For which things’ sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience:"

Ephesians 5:5 "For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God."

1 Corinthians 5:10 "Yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or with idolaters; for then must ye needs go out of the world. 11 But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat."
- For it is written that the tables of dainties provided by rulers of the world are a snare because they cause the masses to bite one another through government systems of legal charity which are covetous practices which are a form of fornication or adultery where the people are devoured as merchandise, curse children and are "entangled again in the yoke of bondage" with the aid of the false religion of the whore who rides the beast.
