Tabernacle Research Paper

152 Words1 Page

The tabernacle was considered to be the place where God’s presence dwelled among the Israelites, where the divine and earthly realms met, so to speak. “The purpose for the desert tabernacle was clear from the beginning (25:8). It was not like our churches, stadiums, or arenas, where large groups gather for various purposes. It was God’s way of living in the midst of his people” Arnold and Beyer 81). The tabernacle’s design physically represented a gradual increase in gradations of holiness, so to speak. From the outer courtyard (which was meant to create a barrier from the irreverent realm) to the Holy of Holies (only entered once a year on Yom Kippur by the High Priest). “This large tent, however, would now be God’s dwelling place.

    For my diversified experience let’s take a journey to a Jehovah Kingdom Hall. Now, openly admitting, entering the Kingdom Hall my social perception as a Christian differ with a Jehovah witness, because of the adverse views people has of Jehovah witnesses. Individuals say that Jehovah witnesses are rude, inconsiderate, imbeciles, and I do not know why individuals reason or feel this way about Jehovah witnesses. To assume that Jehovah witness goes door to door teaching the gospel, showing an example of what Christians do, some might find it annoying, and those who do not may find it motivating. Nonetheless, my paper will give brief information to explain certain reasons for Jehovah witness’s actions and beliefs.

    In fact, the parable does not make sense unless it is an allegory. To start off, the fence and the tower are the temple and the wine-press is the altar. All three of these things point to the temple which makes perfect sense since the parable was given in the temple.

    Therefore, the Pharaoh is afraid to the Israelites. He thinks they are a threat to the nation. However, among the monumental events of this part of Israel’s history are: the birth, preservation, and preparation of Moses (Ex 2). The birth of Moses, his formation in the Egyptian court, his escape to Midian, the vocation and mission received by God (2,1-7,7), are a preparation to lead God’s people out of Egypt to the promise land. In addition, the call of Moses in the burning bush (Ex 3;4) is another remarkable event and beside these are the miracles performed by Moses and Aaron, following the orders of God to force the resistance of the Pharaoh to let the Hebrews go (Ex 7:8; 12:51).
