Tabernacle Talks Today

Blurb

The tabernacle was where God dwelt with Israel. That in itself is a wonderful fact and worthy of our interest. But the tabernacle was far more than that, although the children of Israel did not know it.

All the Old Testament in general was written with us today in view, for our instruction and admonition (Romans 15:4, 1 Corinthians 10:6,11). The tabernacle in particular was a figurative representation, a picture of things in the heavens, a shadow of coming good things, of heavenly things (Hebrews 8:5, 9:23, 10:1).

In picture after picture we have brought before us the wonders and glories of Christ and of us His Church. As seen in verse after verse, particularly in the book of Hebrews, God used the tabernacle to help explain many of the great truths of the New Testament.

So, in a most wonderful way the tabernacle does talk today: it is most worthy of our careful study.
