'House' in the Bible

Now a man of the house of Levi took as his wife a daughter of Levi.

For every woman will get from her neighbour and from the woman living in her house, ornaments of silver and gold, and clothing; and you will put them on your sons and your daughters; you will take the best of their goods from the Egyptians.

Then Pharaoh went into his house, and did not take even this to heart.

The Nile will be full of frogs, and they will come up into your house and into your bedrooms and on your bed, and into the houses of your servants and your people, and into your ovens and into your bread-basins.

And the Lord did so; and great clouds of flies came into the house of Pharaoh and into his servants' houses, and all the land of Egypt was made waste because of the flies.

Then everyone among the servants of Pharaoh who had the fear of the Lord, made his servants and his cattle come quickly into the house:

Then take some of the blood and put it on the two sides of the door and over the door of the house where the meal is to be taken.

And take some hyssop and put it in the blood in the basin, touching the two sides and the top of the doorway with the blood from the basin; and let not one of you go out of his house till the morning.

Then Pharaoh got up in the night, he and all his servants and all the Egyptians; and a great cry went up from Egypt; for there was not a house where someone was not dead.

It is to be taken in one house; not a bit of the flesh is to be taken out of the house, and no bone of it may be broken.

And Moses said to the people, Let this day, on which you came out of Egypt, out of your prison-house, be kept for ever in memory; for by the strength of his hand the Lord has taken you out from this place; let no leavened bread be used.

And when your son says to you in time to come, What is the reason for this? say to him, By the strength of his hand the Lord took us out of Egypt, out of the prison-house:

You will take them in, planting them in the mountain of your heritage, the place, O Lord, where you have made your house, the holy place, O Lord, the building of your hands.

I am the Lord your God who took you out of the land of Egypt, out of the prison-house.

Let not your desire be turned to your neighbour's house, or his wife or his man-servant or his woman-servant or his ox or his ass or anything which is his.

Then his master is to take him to the gods of the house, and at the door, or at its framework, he is to make a hole in his ear with a sharp-pointed instrument; and he will be his servant for ever.

If a thief is taken in the act of forcing his way into a house, and his death is caused by a blow, the owner of the house is not responsible for his blood.

If a man puts money or goods in the care of his neighbour to keep for him, and it is taken from the man's house, if they get the thief, he will have to make payment of twice the value.

If they do not get the thief, let the master of the house come before the judges and take an oath that he has not put his hand on his neighbour's goods.

The best of the first-fruits of your land are to be taken into the house of the Lord your God. The young goat is not to be cooked in its mother's milk

Make the House and everything in it from the designs which I will give you.

And you are to make a House for me, with ten curtains of the best linen, blue and purple and red, worked with designs of winged ones by a good workman.

Then make fifty gold hooks, joining the curtains together by the hooks, and in this way the House will be made.

And you are to make curtains of goats' hair for a tent over the House, eleven curtains.

And the folded part which is over of the curtains of the tent, the half-curtain which is folded back, will be hanging down over the back of the House.

And the cubit which is over of the ten curtains at the sides will be hanging over the two sides of the House as a cover.

And you are to make upright boards of hard wood for the House.

Every board is to be joined to the one nearest to it by two tongues, and so for every board in the House.

These are the boards needed for the house; twenty boards for the south side,

And twenty boards for the second side of the house on the north,

And six boards for the back of the House on the west,

With two boards for the angles of the House at the back.

And five for the boards on the other side of the House, and five for the west side of the House at the back.

And you are to make the House from the design which you saw on the mountain.

And outside the veil you are to put the table, and the support for the lights opposite the table on the south side of the House; and the table is to be on the north side.

And let there be an open space round the House, with hangings for its south side of the best linen, a hundred cubits long.

All the instruments for the work of the House, and all its nails, and the nails of the open space are to be of brass.

Take the first-fruits of your land as an offering to the house of the Lord your God. Let not the young goat be cooked in its mother's milk

The House and its tent and its cover, its hooks and its boards, its rods and its pillars and its bases;

And the altar for burning spices, with its rods, and the holy oil and the sweet perfume, and the curtain for the door, at the door of the House;

The nails for the House, and the nails for the open space and their cords;

Then all the expert workmen among them made the House with its ten curtains; of the best linen, blue and purple and red, they made them, with winged ones worked by expert designers.

And they made fifty hooks of gold, joining the curtains one to another with the hooks; and so the House was made.

And for the uprights of the House they made boards of hard wood.

They made twenty boards for the south side of the House:

And for the second side of the House, on the north, they made twenty boards,

And for the west side of the House, at the back, they made six boards,

And they made rods of hard wood; five for the boards on one side of the House,

And five for the boards on the other side of the House, and five for the boards at the back, on the west.

All the nails used for the House and the open space round it were of brass.

This is the price of the making of the House, even the House of witness, as it was valued by the word of Moses, for the work of the Levites under the direction of Ithamar, the son of Aaron the priest.

And the bases for the open space all round and for its doorway, and all the nails for the House and for the open space.

So all the work on the House of the Tent of meeting was done; as the Lord had given orders to Moses, so the children of Israel did it.

Then they took the House to Moses, the tent with all the things for it; its hooks, its boards, its rods, its pillars, and its bases;

The hangings for the open space, with the pillars and their bases, and the curtain for the doorway, and the cords and nails, and all the instruments necessary for the work of the House of the Tent of meeting;

On the first day of the first month you are to put up the House of the Tent of meeting.

And put the gold altar for burning perfumes in front of the ark of the law, hanging the curtain over the doorway of the House.

And put the altar of burned offerings before the doorway of the House of the Tent of meeting.

And take the holy oil and put it on the House and everything in it, and make it and everything in it holy:

So on the first day of the first month in the second year the House was put up.

Moses put up the House; placing its bases in position and lifting up its uprights, putting in the rods and planting the pillars in their places;

And he took the ark into the House, hanging up the veil before it as the Lord had given him orders.

And he put up the curtain at the doorway of the House.

And at the door of the House of the Tent of meeting, he put the altar of burned offerings, offering on it the burned offering and the meal offering, as the Lord had given him orders.

And he put up the hangings forming the open space round the House and the altar, and put the curtain over the doorway. So Moses made the work complete.

Then the cloud came down covering the Tent of meeting, and the House was full of the glory of the Lord;

So that Moses was not able to go into the Tent of meeting, because the cloud was resting on it, and the House was full of the glory of the Lord.

And whenever the cloud was taken up from the House, the children of Israel went forward on their journey:

For the cloud of the Lord was resting on the House by day, and at night there was fire in the cloud, before the eyes of all the people of Israel, and so it was through all their journeys.
