School of

Tabernacle & Worship

Exo. 25:9; 26

A. PURPOSE OF THE COURSE

Tabernacle truths are embedded in the Holy Bible. The Hebrew word mishkan means ‘dwelling-place’ or tabernacle. While wandering in the desert Moses built the temporary place of worship called tabernacle, according to the pattern shown to him by God. The Feast of Tabernacles commemorates this time of wandering before the Israelites entered the land of Canaan. The martyr Stephen spoke about the tabernacle as “tabernacle of the covenant.”

 

At Emet, we deal with questions like, “Why did God give Moses the instructions to build a tabernacle? What was the idea behind the tabernacle? Did the tabernacle symbolize the presence of God? What is the significance of each element or item in the tabernacle? Why did God ask Moses to build the Holy Place and the Holy of Holies?” The student is taken step by step into the construction part as well as the spiritual-significance to understand God’s overall intention in having the tabernacle in the midst of His people Israel. The showbread, the continuously burning lamp-stand, offering of incense and the priest entering the Holiest of Holies once in year as part of the ceremony of the Day of Atonement had their own significance and played a major role in the spiritual life of the Israelites.

 

We urge students to enrol in this course to find answers to all those questions above as our faculty would lead them into the real-meaning of tabernacle worship. The diligent student will find it amazing that the Word of God has supreme power in all that was done through Moses, David & Solomon in the building of the tabernacle and the temple!
