Exodus 40:34-38 and Luke 10:38-42 (NLT)

Exodus 40:34-38
The Glory of the Lord

34  Then the cloud covered the Tabernacle, and the glory of the Lord filled the Tabernacle. 
35  Moses could no longer enter the Tabernacle because the cloud had settled down over it, and the glory of the Lord filled the Tabernacle.
36  Now whenever the cloud lifted from the Tabernacle, the people of Israel would set out on their journey, following it. 
37  But if the cloud did not rise, they remained where they were until it lifted. 
38  The cloud of the Lord hovered over the Tabernacle during the day, and at night fire glowed inside the cloud so the whole family of Israel could see it. This continued throughout all their journeys.

Luke 10:38-42
At the Home of Martha and Mary

38  As Jesus and the disciples continued on their way to Jerusalem, they came to a certain village where a woman named Martha welcomed him into her home. 
39  Her sister, Mary, sat at the Lord’s feet, listening to what he taught. 
40  But Martha was distracted by the big dinner she was preparing. She came to Jesus and said, “Lord, doesn’t it seem unfair to you that my sister just sits here while I do all the work? Tell her to come and help me.”
41  But the Lord said to her, “My dear Martha, you are worried and upset over all these details! 
42  There is only one thing worth being concerned about. Mary has discovered it, and it will not be taken away from her.”
