THE TABERNACLE
The Israelites stayed at Mt. Sinai for more than a year. During this time, they were occupied chiefly in learning the many details of the law which they were to follow. One of the most important developments that took place was the building of the Tabernacle, the chief purpose of which was to represent God as dwelling in the midst of his people, and it is a type and shadow of Jesus Christ, who was to come.
The Tabernacle itself stood in the very center of the camp, enclosed by a substantial wall. This was where God was to meet his people. The principal act of the Tabernacle worship was the slaying of the sacrificial animals. As said, it is a type and shadow of Jesus’s coming, and was not understood until he did come that the

Like all other items it was very costly. At the end of the central shaft were lamps that contained oil. The branches and the shaft were beaten into series of knobs, bowls, and flowers. An equal number of these consisted each branch. There was no natural light there, for there were no windows. From it was the only light that the priest had to perform his sacred duties. The Altar of Incense was a small piece of furniture, 1 ½ by 1 ½ feet, three feet high, made of wood and overlaid with gold. On the altar was continual fire. Each morning and every evening when Aaron the priest went in to care for the lamps of the Golden Candlestick, he offered prayer for the people and burned sweet-smelling incense on the Golden Altar. The horns were at the four corners of the altar. These were also made of wood and overlaid gold. The Golden Crown was placed on the top of the Altar of Incense. The altar was placed just before the place of God’s habitation, “The Holy of Holies.” The fire was taken from the Brazen Altar. The Table of Shewbread, 1 ½ feet by 2 ½ feet high by three feet long, was where the unleavened showbread was placed. The bread was made of fine flour without

Introduction: In the bible, the promise land has been depicted as some sort of holy paradise. A sanctuary for the suffering and enslaved. A place of happiness and tranquility. The home to the heavy hearts and burdens.
Between narrow trestles iron candelabras festooned with glowing tapers stood at attention. The beeswax candles dispensed a honey-sweet fragrance over the affair. At a long table, the Master of the Stronghold rested upon a lordly seat artfully clam-shelled by lacquered deer and moose horn. To the lord’s right sat a tall figure; bearded, wide of shoulder, swimming in blood red robes.
There seems to be a discrepancy with Brooklyn Tabernacles script and the update from earlier this week. If the agents are to confirm the total number of resources prior to entering credit card information then the script needs to be changed. Currently the script ask for additional copies after the order has been placed, which result in the agents adding copies after the credit card information. Please see the screen shots below along with my suggestions for change. Can we get this fixed?
Sacrificial sufferers were drugged and then unnerved into a fire at the top of decretive ritual raised, flat underneath surface.

As Numbers 20:2 goes on to say, “There was no water for the people to drink at that place, so they rebelled against Moses and Aaron.” So Moses had went into the Tabernacle and fell face down before the presence of God. “Moses and Aaron went from the assembly to the entrance to the tent of meeting and fell facedown, and the glory of the Lord appeared to them. The Lord said to Moses, “Take the staff, and you and your brother Aaron gather the assembly together. Speak to that rock before their eyes and it will pour out its water.
You shall put it between the tent of meeting and the altar, and you shall put water in it”. Here we see water is for the purpose of purification for those who are going to enter into the Temple. This is an indication of the Church and the ritual of Baptism. One becomes a member of the Church through the sacrament of baptism. Here one can enter into the tent of meeting only after washing themselves with the water that has been placed there in between the tent and the altar.
First, as the priest walked on to the altar there was a table with a cloth over it which the priest kisses. I was curious as to what the meaning of the table was and asked my friend Paul. His answer was that the meaning the table signified the body of Christ. On that same table the priest set a gold colored what seemed to me to be a wine glass and a circular disk on the table. The priest lifted the circular disk in to the air with both hands and said “this is my body which will be given up for you this is the challis of my blood”.

lights to find their place in the atrium. ”1 In 1 Corinthians, Paul reacts against the unequal food distribution, and the fact that there might be no food left when the workers arrived (11.21). The architecture of the houses in which the Lord’s supper was celebrated may also have relevance for the situation that is depicted and addressed in 1 Corinthians. The Christ-believers probably gathered in a large house (cf.
As I stepped out of my car, I acknowledge that the church was surrounded by trees, which gave it a calming and peaceful sensation, the building was long with a triangular shaped form, with burgundy bricks surroundings and a bit of white in the front entrance and some at the very top and sides with a dark beige roofing to give the church some color, the windows seemed to be a tinted crystal glass that was designed with blues and a beige color. As I made my way into the church their was an entry room where a man and a women and what seemed to be their two children greeted me and handed me a pamphlet that described what was going to take place in that days Sunday school and mass, then I made my way to another pair of doors where I could hear the choir singing, as I opened the doors the inside of the church was a tan wood looking color all around and had matching tan benches with burgundy red bedding to match the carpet, the thing that stood out most to me when I walked in was the large cross that was in the very front that shined very bright as if the sun was hitting it to give the whole church light, when I looked below the cross, the choir was singing and beside it was a women playing a piano with so much passion and in front of them was a the pastors book stand also a matching tan color with his bible.
