Understanding The Tabernacle

Understanding the Tabernacle
2 Onyx Stones
12 Different Jewel's
The First things made was the Ark of the Covenant or the Dwelling Place of God
The Mercy Seat was placed on the Ark of the Covenant
Two Promises Given By God!
1. Meet with the Priest
2. Commune With the Priest
It is at this place that Father will meet with the New Testament Priest and Commune
with them also!
We come to the throne of grace to obtain “Mercy & Grace” for the generation who
can’t come to God for themselves. Hebrew Chapter 4!
The next thing made was the Table of Shewbread Exodus 25:23‐30
This is the only piece of furniture that had a crown.
There were twelve loaves of shewbread placed on the table.
This table was symbolic of Jesus Christ!
The table also had feet.
Isaiah 52:7 How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that
bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace; that bringeth good tidings
of good, that publisheth salvation; that saith unto Zion, Thy God
reigneth!
The Candlestick was the next piece of furniture Exodus 25:31‐40
This piece of furniture speaks of the Holy Ghost who brings lights to the
Holy Place who shine light on Jesus who gives us our supply.
This lamp could never go out !
It is the exact same way today, He must always burn in our hearts!
We must reconnect with the light and presence of the Holy Ghost
All of our help comes form the Holy Ghost
John 16:7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if
I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him
unto you.
John 16:8 And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of
righteousness, and of judgment:
John 16:9 Of sin, because they believe not on me;
John 16:10 Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more;
John 16:11 Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.
John 16:12 I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now.
John 16:13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all
truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he
speak: and he will shew you things to come.
John 16:14 He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto
you.
John 16:15 All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that he shall take
of mine, and shall shew it unto you.
John 16:16 A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye
shall see me, because I go to the Father.
Zechariah 4:6 Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of
the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might,H2428 nor by power,H3581 but by my
spirit,H7307 saith the LORD of hosts.
Might H24238

Power H3581

human strength
strength (of angels)
power (of God)
strength (of animals)

Without the Holy Ghost there is no light in the Holy Place.
We must have a personal relationship with the Holy Ghost so
that we can see everything that is ours through our Lord and
Savior Jesus Christ.
The Golden Altar of Incense is the next piece of furniture
True prayer can’t take place until the Holy Spirit reveals Jesus and the suppy
that is available through Him.
The incense was to also burn daily!
This tells us that we must be in prayer daily through the illumination of the
Holy Spirit.
The Holiest of All (The Spirit of Man)
a) The Ark of the Covenant
The Holy Place (The Soul of Man)
a) The Golden Altar of Incense EMOTION
b) The Table of Shewbread WILL
c) The Seven Branch Candlestick MIND
The Outer Court (The Body of Man)
a) The Brazen Altar FLESH/BONE
b) The Brazen Laver WATER
God’s approach to man is from “The Holiest of All” of
the spirit to man to the “Holy Place” or the soul of man
gives direction to the body of man.
Counting the Furniture from the Holiest of All to the
outer Court is”

•The Tabernacle was established so that God could dwell with and
communicate with the nation.
• Remember, it was the nation that rejected God’s offer to make
them a Kingdom of Priest
• God still want to be among them for the sake of fellowship and
protection
Exodus 25:8 And let them make me a
sanctuary; that I may dwell among
them.
• The tabernacle provides a way for God to dwell but He will only dwell on His on
terms
• The complete pattern for the tabernacle come from God and it must be followed
to the letter
• The tabernacle furniture arranged in the 1‐3‐2 pattern which is the numerical value
132 which is the number for ELOHIYM which this the plural form of GOD indicates
that the dwelling and everything about the dwelling is for Him.
• Man was created with the purpose of dwelling with and having fellowship with
God!
•Father God has never changed His mind!
•And now He dwells IN man!
•Could it be since the Priestly pattern was changed that the church isn’t walking in
the divine power of God?
• The tabernacle was built by the entire nation, they brought their offerings
unto God for the purpose of building the vision
• God did not allow Israel to spoil the Egyptians so that they would first be rich,
but for the purpose of the vision
• Exodus 25:2 Speak unto the children of Israel, that they bring me an
offering: of every man that giveth it willingly with his heart ye shall)
take my offering.
• These people were moved to give because they realized that what they had
didn’t come because of their greatness but because of God
• We haven’t pleaded with God to give us the resources that would help the
vision happen, instead we pray for our own issues

1Co 12:1 Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I would not have you
ignorant.
1Co 12:2 Ye know that ye were Gentiles, carried away unto these dumb
idols, even as ye were led.
1Co 12:3 Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the
Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is
the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost.
1Co 12:4 Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.
1Co 12:5 And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord.
1Co 12:6 And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God
which worketh all in all.
1Co 12:7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit
withal.
1Co 12:8 For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of
knowledge by the same Spirit;
1Co 12:9 To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the
same Spirit;
1Co 12:10 To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another
discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation
of tongues:
1Co 12:11 But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every
man severally as he will.
From the beginning when the Spirit moved over the
earth, He is responsible for the movement in the
Kingdom of God!
Let Him Move!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Who are the men that built the tabernacle and how do they fit into the plan?
The Spirit gave them: Wisdom, Understanding, and Knowledge
Bezaleel – from the tribe of Judah was chief builder
The number of his name is 153
The Number 153
•I am the Lord thy God
Ani YHVH Elohikah
•The Passover

•Side, Part [John 21.6]
merai
His name means; In the shadow of God or God is my protection
For I am the LORD thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Saviour: I gave Egypt for thy
ransom, Ethiopia and Seba for thee. Isaiah 43.3 (Verse Total is 153)
Simon Peter went up, and drew the net to land full of great fishes, an hundred and
fifty and three: and for all there were so many, yet was not the net broken.
John 21.11 (The number of fish is 153)
The number of fish in the nets has to do with the end time harvest. I believe that
Bezaleel name and number of his names gives the church great insight into how God
will built His end time church and reach the end time harvest.
We need the Spirit to anoint us with; Wisdom, Understanding and Knowledge!

make due use of it; knowledge of the best ends and the
best means; discernment and judgment; discretion;
sagacity; skill; dexterity.
We speak also not in wise words of man's wisdom, but in
the doctrine of the spirit. ‐‐Wyclif (1 Cor. ii. 13).

The Twelve Tribes Camped in order around the tabernacle!
On the East ‐‐‐‐ The Priest Dwell in front of the gate which is the only
way in or out. The gate represent Jesus in all of His splendor and the fact
that He is the only way to the Father!
Behind the Priest
Judah, Issachar and Zebulon

On the North‐‐‐‐‐ Dan, Asher and Naphtali
On the South ‐‐‐‐‐ Rueben, Simeon and Gad
Rev 4:5 And out of the throne proceeded lightning's and thundering and
voices: and there were seven lamps of fire burning before the throne, which
are the seven Spirits of God.
Rev 4:6 And before the throne there was a sea of glass like unto crystal: and
in the midst of the throne, and round about the throne, were four beasts full of
eyes before and behind.
Rev 4:7 And the first beast was like a lion, and the second beast like a calf,
and the third beast had a face as a man, and the fourth beast was like a flying
eagle.
Also See: Ezekiel Chapter 1
The encampment around the tabernacle was represented by the lead tribe
Judah, Ephraim, Dan and Rueben
Judah = Lion
Ephraim = Ox
Dan = Eagle
Rueben = Man
See Handout for encampment diagram
The encampment does not allow the people to see clearly the
pattern!
It is only seen from God’s vantage point.
When Moses goes up on the mount he can see what is coming and
how man will truly be able to commune with God!
The Cross!
In front of each set of tribes were one
of the divisions of the Priesthood
Aaron and Sons
In Front of Judah
Merarites
In Front of Dan
Gershonites
In Front of Ephraim
Kohathites
In Front of Rueben
•Merari means Bitter
•Gershon means Exile
•Kohath means Assembly
Gen 46:11 And the sons of Levi; Gershon,
Kohath, and Merari.
• Merari was responsible for the solid
framework of the buildings, the pillars, with
the sockets of silver and brass
• The Gershonites care for the curtains, hanging
and coverings which they carried during the
journeys
• The Kohathites carried the holy vessels
We saw the fact that the entire nation was positioned
around the Tabernacle in the form of the Cross! (See
Diagram)
The new diagram reveals the fact that the furniture in
the Tabernacle is across
Set up in the form of the Cross! (See Diagram)
This Cross can not be seen even from higher elevations
because it is hidden under the badger skins.
This is the presence and power of the cross inside our
hearts.

• The Ark does not work if it doesn’t
have the presence of God dwelling
on it!
• It is only an empty box
• God dwells there because it is
designed for Him in the way He
wants it to be designed
Looking at the Numbers
Ark‐ chest measured
2 ½ cubits in length, by 1 ½ cubits width, by 1 ½ cubits height, or 2 ½
cubits x 1 ½ cubits x 1 ½ cubits.
The Mercy Seat fit as a perfect lid on the top of the box‐like Ark
2 x 1 ½ = 3 Number for the Godhead
2 x 2 ½ = 5 Number for the Atonement, for Grace
Circumference of the end, 1 ½ + 1 ½ + 1 ½ + 1 ½ = 6 Number for Man

Circumference of the top, 2 ½ + 1 ½ + 2 ½ + 1 ½ = 8 Number of Resurrection and
Fatness and Oil
The Top & Bottom of Ark, 4 x 2 ½ = 10 the Number of the Law, Order, Judgment
The two ends together, 8 x 1 ½ = 12 the Number of Perfect Government, Order of
Israel
The Height of the Ark was 1 ½ cubits; the same height as the Table of Shewbread,
and the Grate of the Brazen Altar in the Outer Court.
Looking at the Numbers
The three articles, one in the Outer Court, the Holy Place, and the Holiest of All are
connected in the same height; the same truth.
Brazen Altar grate, 1 ½ cubits
Mercy Seat 1 ½ cubits

•This is the place of Conversion
•This is the place where our lives are sacrificed
•This is the place where the word of God is revealed
•This is the place of fellowship
• All tribes could come in the outer court
• The outer requirement is to bring an offering
1. All had to enter the Gate with Thanksgiving
2. All had to have an attitude of Praise in the court
3. The first encounter is with Jesus and His cross
4. The offering has to do with Jesus Sacrificed and their grateful
5. The Priest had to perform all services in the outer court
The Brazen Altar
Romans 12:1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye
present your bodies a livingG2198 sacrificeG2378 (Thusia) , holy, acceptable unto God,
which is your reasonable service.
A large portion of the church has not moved beyond this point in their approach to
God!
They are converted, They sacrifice, They acknowledge Priestly leadership
and They give of their resources!
When we meet these believers they are limited in their knowledge of God and His
kingdom realities. It can shock us that they are so limited!
We think they need to be in another church, when they only need to move forward
to the next piece of furniture.
If we can, it is our job to help them read the bible with purpose.
The Brazen Laver

Heb 9:24 For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with
hands, which are the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in
the presence of God for us:
The Holy Spirit is also a Priest because HE PRAYERS for us from within us!
Heb 9:24 For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with
hands, which are the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in
the presence of God for us:
Rom 8:34 Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea
rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also
maketh intercession for us.
The Altar was made of wood
Humanity
Shittim Wood(Can’t Decay)
Foursquare
Complete Balance
4 is the number for the earth (Prayer and the Gospel must touch the
entire earth, all four corners)
There were Four horns placed on each corner
Power
Authority
Kingship
The horn was used in the anointing process (A horn of Oil)
Oil represent the Holy Spirit
The vessel praying prays with Power, authority with a Kingdom mindset
Must be anointing by the Holy Spirit!
A small crown is place on the golden Altar which speaks of the Kingdom
and those who engage in prayer must have a kingdom prayer focus.
The two golden rings were different from the other furniture in that they
had four rings.
•In transit the Altar would swing from side to side, much like a censor in
someone's hand
•The swinging means this principle must be in operation even in our travel
and movement of ministry
•The two rings indicate that it takes the Holy Spirit and Jesus to help us in
our prayer life
Because of where the Altar is positioned when the tabernacle is
constructed, we can see that it is the closes thing to the Ark of the
Covenant and the glory of God!
This is also the end of the Holy Place before entering into the Most
Holy Place.
Speaking of the prayer that the Priest would have to offer
in the end times
Holy Place measurements
10 x 10 x 20 = 2000 cubits
The church age has been for 2000 years and we are at the
end
Rev 8:1 And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in
heaven about the space of half an hour.
Rev 8:2 And I saw the seven angels which stood before God; and to them were
given seven trumpets.
Rev 8:3 And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden
censer; and there was given unto him much incense, that he should offer it
with the prayersG4335 of all saints upon the golden altar which was before the
throne.
Rev 8:4 And the smoke of the incense, which came with the prayers of the
saints, ascended up before God out of the angel‘s hand.
Morning and Evening the Priest had to attend to the Altar
Psa 55:17 Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I pray, and cry aloud:

and he shall hear my voice.
The two things that had to happen daily by the Priest was to supply the Oil
for the lamps and the burning of the Incense
Five Ingredients in the sweet Incense:
Stacte‐ is a fragrant sap gum from a tree.
Stacte means “to drop or to distill”
It had to be crushed fine to be apart of the Incense
Onycha‐ was a ground shell taken from the red sea
It fragrance came from what it ate
It had to be crushed fine also
Galbanum‐ was also a sap that came from a plant
A bitter sap used to drive away insects
If had to be crushed fine also
Frankincense‐ white in color and comes from the sap of a tree
White (Purity and righteousness)
Salt‐ acts as both a seasoning and a preservative
Pure, tasty and grace (The lasting affect of the salt)
Incense had to be:
Sweet‐ Christ’s ministry was filled with sweetness
Pure‐ Christ was absolutely pure
Holy‐ Christ ministered in absolute holiness and sinlessness
Perpectual‐ Jesus ministers in the power of an endless life. He ever lives to
make intercession for us
Perfume‐ Jesus was fragant in His whole being

• Jesus was crushed
– He had to experience bitterness
– The fragrance came forth from HIS life
– He is the righteous one
– He is the one that is keeping us
Amen!

us as believers and our success in
life?
