Tabernacle Shadows of the Better Sacrifices

Examines over 700 Scriptures from the Old and New Testaments. This book is a complete study including diagrams, illustrations and a Scriptures index. For over 500 years God's presence was manifested to the nation of Israel through this tent of meeting called the "Tabernacle." It was demonstrated during their wilderness wanderings by a pillar of fire by night over the "Most Holy" room of the Tabernacle and a cloud by day. Here Moses would actually speak with God, and the high priest would learn of God's judgments through the mysterious stones, the Urim and Thummim. As fantastic as that was, it was God's plan to have the Tabernacle arrangement teach many wonderful and important lessons. The Apostle Paul states that the Tabernacle and the priests who served it are but an example or shadow of heavenly (spiritual) things. This book briefly considers some of the lessons that the Tabernacle symbolically teaches us.
