THE FIRST TABERNACLE

The Tabernacle was a symbol of the visible Church of God on earth. It is the Tabernacle and its worship that David so frequently refers in the Psalms. THE FIRST TABERNACLE There was a Tabernacle in the camp of the Israelites previous to the erection of the one that is generally known by that name. This was doubtless the dwelling, or the headquarters of Moses, and the place where the public business of the nation was transacted. Exodus 33:7-10: Reference To The Tabernacle verse 7: And Moses took the tabernacle, and pitched it without the camp, afar off from the camp, and called it the Tabernacle of the congregation. And it came to pass, that every one which sought the LORD went out unto the tabernacle of the congregation, which was without the camp. verse 8: And it came to pass, when Moses went out unto the tabernacle, that all the people rose up, and stood every man at his tent door, and looked after Moses, until he was gone into the tabernacle. SACRED PLACES " THE TABERNACLE " "The TABERNACLE Set Up" verse 9: And it came to pass, as Moses entered into the tabernacle, the cloudy pillar descended, and stood at the door of the tabernacle, and the LORD talked with Moses. MIRACLES " MIRACLES In The Upper Regions, And In The Atmosphere" verse 10: And all the people saw the cloudy pillar stand at the tabernacle door: and all the people rose up and worshipped, every man in his tent door.
