Line 5 - And so shall three shepherds' works reveal the meaning of a mortal's life, and each shall describe the edifice of a tomb from above, beside and below.  

Summary:
Within the chapter of Solis Sacerdotibus, we are presented with "three shepherds".  Soon in the text they will be listed in order as Joseph, Mosis and Aaron.  They are three shepherds because each one holds a staff, as a shepherd would.    

Describing the "edifice of a tomb":  The edifice of a tomb would be a "building of a tomb", a "face" of a tomb, or the sides of a tomb.  

Are we then looking for three faces or sides of a single tomb, as interpreted through the "works" of the three shepherds? Are we looking for the shape of something defined by the three figures on the mount in image #2, since this chapter clearly seems to be talking about that image? 

Does this also mean that these this tomb, supported by the works of the three shepherds will also reveal the meaning of mortality, or life as a mortal?
