“And it came to pass on the day that Moses had fully set up the tabernacle, and had anointed it, and sanctified it, and all the instruments thereof, both the altar and all the vessels thereof, and had anointed them, and sanctified them;”
On the day Moses finished erecting the tabernacle — he anointed and consecrated it with all its furnishings, establishing the sanctuary as God's dwelling place among Israel. The completion of the tent of meeting marked the fulfillment of the instructions given at Mount Sinai, transforming the portable shrine into the operational center of Israel's worship. This consecration parallels the cosmic creation pattern: God rested on the seventh day, and now the sanctuary is prepared for God's holy presence.
