Exodus Chapter 26 - Coverings
In Exodus 26: The Tabernacle of Moses was very important to God because He went into great detail in its design. If the Tabernacle was important to God, it should be important to us. God also went through great detail just how the curtains and coverings were to be made.
Most men did not see the glory inside Jesus the coming Saviour, even while in His presence. They did not see the glory under the skin, just as most of the Children of Israel never saw the glory inside the Tabernacle.
Exodus 26
1. "And the Tabernacle you shall make with ten panels of twisted linen, and indigo and purple and crimson, with cherubim desiner's work you shall make them.(Note:The cherubim were embroidered so that most of the cherubim faced outward. Only a small number of embroidered cherubim could be seen from inside the tabernacle tent). The length of the panel is twenty-eight cubits, and a width of four cubits to the one panel, a single measure for all the panels. Five of the panels shall be joined to each other and the other five joined to each other. And you shall make indigo loops along the edge of the outermost panel in the set, and thus shall you do on the edge of the outermost panel in the other set. Fifty loops you shall make in the one panel and fifty loops youoshall make in the outermost panel which is in the other set, the loops opposite one another. And you shall make fifty golden clasps, and you shall join the panels to one another with the clasps, that the 2. Tabernacle be one whole. And you shall make 3.goat-hair panels for a tent over the Tabernacle, twelve panels you shall make them. The length of the one panel, thiery cubits, and a width of four cubits to the panel, a single measure for the twelve panels. And you shall join five fo the panels by themselves and six of the panels by themselves, and you shall double over the sixth panel at the from of the tent.
1.panels of twisted linen. The cloth panels, yeri 'ot, invoke a term generally used for tent coverings, and we are repeatedly reminded that this portable sanctuary, however splendid in gold and silver and bronze and acacia wood, is a tent, 'ohel. The twisting of linen evidently refers to a special technique in the weaving process devised to give the individual threads extra strength with cheribim, designer's work. These cherubim are woven as a tapestry design into the cloth. The Hebrew for "designer,: hoshev, indicates a person with special skill or someone who makes a purposeful plan (mashashavah)
2. that the Tabernacle be one whole, More literally, "that the Tabernacle be one.: This phrase leads Abraham ibn Ezra to muse over how unity in the greater world is constituted by interlocking of constituent parts that became transcendent whole as in the unity of microcosm and macrocosm. All the instructions for the design of the Tabernacle--however much the learned interpreters differed in explaining the concrete architectual details--point to a perfect symmetry of nicely interlocking parts, postsfitting into sockets, claps into loops, with crossbars shooting from end to end on both sides of the structure, and the dimensions of every component carefully measured.
3. The goats hair cover was pegged to the ground outside with bronze pegs, bronze represents the judgement of sin. We are reminded of the bronze snake in the wilderness lifted up for sin as a type of Christ. There was no bronze inside the tabernacle showing that in Christ there is no fear of judgement because his perfect love drives out fear, therefore there is no condemnation in Christ Jesus
THE OUTER COVERINGS - Which formed the "OHEL" the large tent that spread over it thus protecting it from the sun and rain..
THE RAMS-SKINS COVERING - This was the inner of the two coverings, dyed red not by expensive Phoenician scarlet but probably a household dye made out of some sort of food. This coloured side would have been facing inward
THE OUTER COURT -The linen around the Outer Court was held into place with silver hooks and bronze anchors. Bronze represents judgment, and silver represents a ransom paid. “Moses made a bronze serpent, and put it on a pole; and so it was, if a serpent had bitten anyone, when he looked at the bronze serpent, he lived” Numbers 21:9 (NKJV).
