He notes that since there was no service at night, the lamps also served a decorative function. and all its vessels, and the oil for the light, (38) the golden altar, the anointing oil, the fragrance spices, and the screen for the entrance to the tent, (39) the copper altar and its copper grating, its poles and all its vessels, the basin and its base, (40) the hangings of the courtyard, its pillars and its sockets, and the screen for the gate of the courtyard, its cords and its pegs, and all the vessels for the service of the Tabernacle, for the Tent of Meeting, (41) the service garments to serve in the Holy, the holy garments for Aharon the priest, and the garments of his sons to serve as priests.

Thus, the phrase "יוֹם הַחֹדֶשׁ" would mean "the day of the new moon". See this usage of the phrase in Shemuel I 20:34 and Yechezkel 40:1-6 as well. on the first of the month, you shall erect the Tabernacle of the Tent of Meeting.

(16) Moshe did according to all that Hashem commanded him; so he did. (17) In the first month of the second year, on the first of the month, the Tabernacle was erected. (18) Moshe erected the Tabernacle, and placed its sockets, and put up its boards, and placed its crossbars, and erected its pillars. (19) He spread the tentthe tent | הָאֹהֶל – This refers to the curtains of goat skins (Malbim). over the Tabernacle and put the covering of the tentcovering of the tent | מִכְסֵה הָאֹהֶל – These are the ram and sea cow hides (Malbim). over it, on top, as Hashem commanded Moshe. (20) He took and placed the Testimony in the ark, and he put the poles on the ark and placed the cover on the ark on top. (21) He brought the ark into the Tabernacle and put up the veil of the screen, and it screened the Ark of the Testimony as Hashem commanded Moshe. (22) He placed the table in the Tent of Meeting on the northern side of the Tabernacle, outside of the veil. (23) He set upon it the array of bread before Hashem, as Hashem commanded Moshe. (24) He put the Menorah in the Tent of Meeting opposite the table, on the southern side of the Tabernacle. (25) He raised up the lamps before Hashem, as Hashem commanded Moshe. (26) He put the golden altar in the Tent of Meeting before the veil. (27) He burned upon it the fragrance incense as Hashem commanded Moshe. (28) He put up the screen of the entrance to the Tabernacle. (29) And the altar of the burnt offering he put at the entrance of the Tabernacle of the Tent of Meeting; and he offered up on it the burnt offering and the grain offering, as Hashem commanded Moshe. (30) He put the basin between the Tent of Meeting and the altar and placed there water for washing. (31) Moshe, Aharon, and his children would wash their hands and legs from it. (32) When they came to the Tent of Meeting and when they came close to the altar, they would wash, as Hashem commanded Moshe. (33) He erected the courtyard all around the Tabernacle and the altar, and put in place the screen of the gate of the courtyard. Moshe completed the work. (34) The cloud covered the Tent of Meeting and the glory of Hashem filled the Tabernacle. (35) And Moshe could not come into the Tent of Meeting because the cloud dwelled upon it; and the glory of Hashem filled the Tabernacle. (36) And when the cloud would rise from on top of the Tabernacle, the Children of Israel would travel, in all their travels. (37) And if the cloud did not rise, they would not travel until the day of its rising. (38) For the cloud was upon the Tabernacle by day, and the fire was by night, in the eyes of all of the house of Israel, in all their travels.
