[Leviticus 1] The Sacrifice of Christ in Our Behalf. In this chapter, we see that the Tabernacle is completed, and instructions regarding the different sacrifices are handed down by God to Moses. Each one of these sacrifices is minutely described, and no deviation or variation of offering up is acceptable – on pain of death. […]

[Exodus 40] The Tabernacle is Erected, and the Cloud Descends. In the final chapter of Exodus, Moses washes Aaron and his sons to prepare them for service. The Ark and other items of sacred furniture are set up. Then the cloud descends to remain with and guide the people through the wilderness. All of this […]

[Exodus 39] Putting on Christ. In this chapter, we read of the priestly garments prepared for Aaron and his sons to serve in the priesthood. They speak of our service before the Lord as kings and priests unto Him. We wear the ephod of His righteousness to enter His presence for ourselves and others just […]

[Exodus 38] Outer Court Access Brings Inner Court Glory. In this chapter, the account of fashioning the Tabernacle of Moses continues. Bezaleel builds the Altar of Burnt Offering, the Laver for Washing, and other things that speak to us of the sacrifice of Christ and the place of His word to wash the believer in […]

[Exodus 37] The Furnishing of the Holy of Holies. In this chapter we observe Bezaleel as he constructs the Ark of the Covenant, the Table of Shewbread, the Lampstand, and the Altar of Incense.

In this chapter, the resources to construct the Tabernacle are gathered, and the people set to work under the supervision of Bezaleel, God’s master craftsman. The opening verses of this time of working and gathering begin with a strong emphasis on the Sabbath lest the people […]

[Exodus 34] Living with an Unveiled Face. In this chapter, Moses returns for a sixth and final time to the top of the mountain to meet with God. He remains there without food or water for 40 days, and upon his return, his face shines with supernatural glory. What does this tell us about the […]

[Exodus 33] Show Me Your Glory. In this chapter, God offers to send the people into the land of promise – but refuses to go with them. The people genuinely repent, and God agrees to accompany them. In the aftermath of these events, Moses desires to see God’s face and experiences, perhaps the most profound […]

[Exodus 32] The People Choose the Golden Calf. In this chapter, Moses delays returning from Sinai, and the people fall into sin, worshipping a golden calf to take them back to Egypt. For us, this is an example of what idolatry is in a modern sense and a warning to stand fast in times of […]
