35 - The Tabernacle items.

Kathleen's thoughts

Exodus 27 -31

What a interesting read today. As you can see Chareen has placed wonderful video clips on the tabernacle and its sure worth the watch. It explains most of our readings.

One of the interesting reads was from chapter 31: 1-6 We often think how did these people know how to make all these beautiful things for the Lord. The craftsmanship was outstanding especially working with all the different metals let alone spinning yarns to make the beautiful linens and embroidery. These verses clears that up.

The Lord also spoke to Moses; Look, I have appointed by name Bezalel son of Uri, son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah. I have filled him with God's spirit,with wisdom, understanding, and ability in every craft...to design artistic works in gold, silver, and bronze...to cut gemstones for mounting, and to carve wood for work in every craft. I have also selected Oholiab son of Ahisamach,of the tribe of Dan, to be with him. I have placed wisdom within every skilled craftsman in order to make all that I have commanded you.

The spices and oils that had to be made for anointing in Exodus 30: 22- 37 with the specific instructions of weight and measurements.

The Holy anointing oil - Tell the Israelities; This will be My holy anointing oil throughout your generations...IT MUST NOT BE USED FOR ORDINARY ANOINTING ON A PERSON'S BODY, AND YOU MUST NOT MAKE ANYTHING LIKE IT USING ITS FORMULA. IT IS HOLY, AND IT MUST BE HOLY TO YOU. This apply's to the incense that burns in front of the testimony.

Breast plate Exodus 28: 21 The 12 stones are to corresponds to the names of Israel's sons. Each stone must be engraved like a seal, with one of the names of the 12 tribes.
