Verse 6

veil: Exodus 26:31-Habakkuk :, Exodus 40:3, Exodus 40:5, Exodus 40:26, Matthew 27:51, Hebrews 9:3, Hebrews 9:4

before the mercy seat that is over the testimony: The words לפני הכפרת אשר על העדת, liphney haccapporeth asher al haaiduth, "before the mercy-seat that is over the testimony," are thought to be a repetition of the preceding clause, לפני הפרכת אשר על ארן הערת, liphney happarocheth asher al aron haaiduth, "before the vail that is by the ark of the testimony; the word הפרכת , [Strong's H6532], happarocheth, "the vail," being corrupted, by transposing the letters into הכפרת , [Strong's H3727], hacapporeth, "the mercy-seat," and the word ארן, [Strong's H727], aron, "ark," omitted. This repetition, as Dr. Kennicott observes, places the altar of incense before the mercy-seat, and consequently in the Holy of Holies! Now this could not be, as the altar of incense was attended every day, and the Holy of Holies entered only once in the year. The five words which appear to be a repetition are wanting in twenty-six of Kennicott's and Rossi's manuscripts and in the Samaritan Text. Exodus 25:21, Exodus 25:22, Leviticus 16:13, 1 Chronicles 28:11, Hebrews 4:16, Hebrews 9:5
