Expanded Bible

The Cloud Above the Tent

¹⁵ On the day the ·Holy Tent [Tabernacle], the Tent of the ·Agreement [Testimony; Treaty; Covenant], was set up, a cloud covered it. From dusk until dawn the cloud above the ·Tent [Tabernacle] looked like fire [Ex. 40:34–38]. ¹⁶ The cloud stayed above the ·Tent [Tabernacle], and at night it looked like fire. ¹⁷ When the cloud moved from its place over the Tent, the ·Israelites [^Lsons/^Tchildren of Israel] moved, and wherever the cloud stopped, the ·Israelites [^Lsons/^Tchildren of Israel] camped.
