He Tabernacled Among Us

We continue our study of the Tabernacle of Moses:

• Psalms 40:6-8
• Galation 3:24
• Matthew 5:17, 18
• 1 Peter 1:11
• Psalms 29:9

The Tabernacle was a portable tent that consisted of three (3) parts:

1. The Outer Court (entrance was on the east)
2. The Altar of Sacrifice (faced the east)
3. The Tabernacle itself was located at the west part of the court and was divided (by a veil) into two chambers:
   1. The first chamber was called the Holy Place, it contained the Table, Lampstand, and Altar of Incense. Only priest were allowed in this section.
   2. The second chamber was called the Holy of Holies. it contained the Ark of the Covenant.  Only the High Priest was allowed in this section.

Everyting in the tabernacle was portable so that when the cloud of glory (sh' chinah) moved, they moved with with it.
