Reality Check

It's been almost a year since going to Israel, Jordan and Egypt. I've obviously not finished posting everything from that trip here, and much is happening currently. So this blog is now going to cover current events (at least the ones that are in my little corner of the universe) in nearly real-time.

If you discover any errors in my descriptions of the sites in Israel and Egypt, please feel free to leave a comment.

The Tabernacle

Inside the Ark of the Covenant
Inside the Ark of the Covenant

Very near Solomon's Pillars in Timna, there is a full-scale replica of the ancient Hebrew Tabernacle. It's lovingly kept by a group dedicated to preserving the history and the traditions of the bible, specifically the Torah.

Wikipedia has an excellent article here about the Tabernacle, better than I could write myself. The book of Exodus is the place to read about God's design for the Tabernacle, or "Tent of Meeting," There's another site that shows how the symbolism of all the parts of the tabernacle point to the future coming of the Messiah, Jesus.
