EXODUS CH 26 The Tabernacle MOSES IS STILL ON MOUNT SINAI IN THE PRESENCE OF GOD RECEIVING INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO CONSTRUCT THE TABERNACLE AND HOLY FURNITURE
Ex 26:1“Moreover, you shall make the tabernacle with ten curtains of fine twined linen and blue and purple and scarlet yarns; you shall make them with cherubim skillfully worked into them. 2The length of each curtain shall be twenty-eight cubits, and the breadth of each curtain four cubits; all the curtains shall be the same size. 3Five curtains shall be coupled to one another, and the other five curtains shall be coupled to one another. 4And you shall make loops of blue on the edge of the outermost curtain in the first set. Likewise you shall make loops on the edge of the outermost curtain in the second set. 5Fifty loops you shall make on the one curtain, and fifty loops you shall make on the edge of the curtain that is in the second set; the loops shall be opposite one another. 6And you shall make fifty clasps of gold, and couple the curtains one to the other with the clasps, so that the tabernacle may be a single whole.
CHERUBIM – DIGNITY, HONOR, TERROR … IMAGES WOVEN INTO EACH OF THESE PANELS … WARNING !! IF YOU HAVE NO BUSINESS IN THE TABERNACLE … BEWARE!
Ex 26:7“You shall also make curtains of goats’ hair for a tent over the tabernacle; eleven curtains shall you make. 8The length of each curtain shall be thirty cubits, and the breadth of each curtain four cubits. The eleven curtains shall be the same size. 9You shall couple five curtains by themselves, and six curtains by themselves, and the sixth curtain you shall double over at the front of the tent. 10You shall make fifty loops on the edge of the curtain that is outermost in one set, and fifty loops on the edge of the curtain that is outermost in the second set.
THIS IS THE OUTSIDE OF THE CURTAINS – GOATS’ HAIR. GOD WILL BE IN THAT PLACE, THE TENT THAT WILL BE MOVING WITH THE PEOPLE. WITHOUT THE TABERNACLE MOSES HAS TO GO UP THE MOUNTAIN TO MEET WITH GOD – THE TABERNACLE ALLOWS GOD TO TRAVEL WITH HIS PEOPLE.
11“You shall make fifty clasps of bronze, and put the clasps into the loops, and couple the tent together that it may be a single whole. 12And the part that remains of the curtains of the tent, the half curtain that remains, shall hang over the back of the tabernacle. 13And the extra that remains in the length of the curtains, the cubit on the one side, and the cubit on the other side, shall hang over the sides of the tabernacle, on this side and that side, to cover it. 14And you shall make for the tent a covering of tanned rams’ skins and a covering of goatskins on top.
15“You shall make upright frames for the tabernacle of acacia wood. 16Ten cubits shall be the length of a frame, and a cubit and a half the breadth of each frame. 17There shall be two tenons in each frame, for fitting together. So shall you do for all the frames of the tabernacle. 18You shall make the frames for the tabernacle: twenty frames for the south side; 19and forty bases of silver you shall make under the twenty frames, two bases under one frame for its two tenons, and two bases under the next frame for its two tenons; 20and for the second side of the tabernacle, on the north side twenty frames, 21and their forty bases of silver, two bases under one frame, and two bases under the next frame. 22And for the rear of the tabernacle westward you shall make six frames. 23And you shall make two frames for corners of the tabernacle in the rear; 24they shall be separate beneath, but joined at the top, at the first ring. Thus shall it be with both of them; they shall form the two corners. 25And there shall be eight frames, with their bases of silver, sixteen bases; two bases under one frame, and two bases under another frame.
26“You shall make bars of acacia wood, five for the frames of the one side of the tabernacle, 27and five bars for the frames of the other side of the tabernacle, and five bars for the frames of the side of the tabernacle at the rear westward. 28The middle bar, halfway up the frames, shall run from end to end. 29You shall overlay the frames with gold and shall make their rings of gold for holders for the bars, and you shall overlay the bars with gold. 30Then you shall erect the tabernacle according to the plan for it that you were shown on the mountain. MOSES SAW THIS IN HEAVEN … YAHWEH’S THRONE ROOM
31 “And you shall make a veil of blue and purple and scarlet yarns and fine twined linen. It shall be made with cherubim skillfully worked into it. 32And you shall hang it on four pillars of acacia overlaid with gold, with hooks of gold, on four bases of silver. 33And you shall hang the veil from the clasps, and bring the ark of the testimony in there within the veil. And the veil shall separate for you the Holy Place from the Most Holy. 34You shall put the mercy seat (COVERING LID) on the ark of the testimony in the Most Holy Place. 35And you shall set the table outside the veil, and the lampstand on the south side of the tabernacle opposite the table, and you shall put the table on the north side. INSIDE THE TENT ENCLOSURE – RECTANGULAR AND OPEN TO THE SKY
36“You shall make a screen for the entrance of the tent, of blue and purple and scarlet yarns and fine twined linen, embroidered with needlework. 37And you shall make for the screen five pillars of acacia, and overlay them with gold. Their hooks shall be of gold, and you shall cast five bases of bronze for them. BRONZE WAS VERY VALUABLE AND VERY HIGH TECH FOR THAT TIME IN HISTORY BECAUSE IT HAD TO BE MADE … SMELTED FROM COPPER AND TIN … THIS IS ALL OCCURRING AT THE END OF THE BRONZE AGE BEFORE THE WORLD SLID BACK INTO THE IRON AGE. COPPER FROM CYPRUS, TIN FROM AFGHANISTAN, THERE WAS A WORLD-WIDE INFRASTRUCTURE THAT ALLOWED THE BABYLONIANS AND EGYPTIANS TO IMPORT BOTH AND SMELT THEM INTO BRONZE. IN THE 12th CENTURY BC THIS INFRASTRUCTURE COLLAPSED … THAT’S ONE REASON WHY WE DON’T HAVE GOOD ARCHEOLOGICAL RECORDS FROM THAT TIME … IT WAS POST APOCALYPTIC … CIVILIZATION HAD COLLAPSED … THAT’S THE BACKGROUND FOR THE EXODUS & INVASION OF THE PROMISED LAND … BRONZE WAS ALMOST TREATED AS MAGICAL … A RELIC OF THAT LOST “BRONZE AGE” CIVILIZATION. THINK, FLOOD, EARTH REPOPULATED, TOWER OF BABEL, EARTH DIVIDED BY LANGUAGE/CULTURE, ABRAHAM CALLED & THE NATION OF ISRAEL PLANTED IN PALESTINE, WORLD-WIDE 7 YEAR FAMINE, JOSEPH & EGYPT SAVE THE WORLD, ISRAEL GROWS INTO A NATION IN EGYPT WHILE THE REST OF THE WORLD REGRESSES INTO THE IRON AGE, THEN THE EXODUS ...
BACK TO MOSES ON MT SINAI … GOD IS GIVING VERY, VERY SPECIFIC INSTRUCTIONS REGARDING HOW THE PEOPLE WERE TO WORSHIP HIM. ISRAEL IS NOT CALLED TO BE CREATIVE – THEY’RE CALLED TO OBEDIENCE. SCRUPULOUS INSTRUCTIONS … WHAT I (YAHWEH) WANT … NUMBER OF CLASPS, ETC. ISRAEL’S COVENANT WITH GOD IS TO DO WHAT THEY’RE TOLD TO DO … DO NOT TAKE OVER PAGAN WORSHIP SITES … DESTROY THEM!!
CREATIVITY DISTRACTS AND DETRACTS FROM WORSHIP … THIS IS WHAT HAPPENED WITH THE CHURCH AND CONTRIBUTED TO THE REFORMATION. THE FOCUS IS SUPPOSED TO BE ON THE WORD OF GOD.
GOD WANTS TO BE WITH HIS PEOPLE … TRAVELING WITH THEM … IN THEIR MIDST. IT ALL STARTS IN THE DESERT WITH ABRHAM’S DESCENDANTS FOLLOWING GOD.
AND THAT WILL WRAP UP EX CH 26
