The relation of the Boards to the Tabernacle, to its holy vessels, and to the ministrations of the priests therein, supplies the key to their distinctive significance. Without these Boards there had been no tabernacle to house. Moreover, without them the beautiful Curtains could not have been displayed.

Upon the golden Boards, held together by the golden bars, resting in their silver sockets, were sustained all the weight of the Curtains and Coverings. In Him has been completely realized what was typified by Eliakim — read carefully. It is this which brings out the meaning of the other numerals here. Six is the number of man and eight that of a new order or a fresh beginning. Ephesians The massive framework of the golden Boards was to the Curtains and Coverings, suspended from them, what the poles are to a tent. Thus what the Lord Jesus Himself was, and is, viz. In the first two chapters, the great foundations of faith are laid.

He is also presented to us as the Son of Man, partaker of flesh and blood in order to die; the Firstborn from the dead; all things put under Him; anointed above His fellows; not ashamed to call them brethren. On these great truths respecting. Twenty of the acacia Boards, overlaid with gold, were used for the south side of the Tabernacle v. Thus have we another hint here of the distinctive significance of our present type — it is the person of the Lord Jesus with His two natures; Divine and human. It was these which gave increased stability to the whole structure.

Here we have presented to us, a corner-stone as foundation, and a corner-stone crowning the building: the beginning and the end. The whole strength of the edifice depending on the firmness of the foundation corner-stone; and the whole compactness, and knitting together of the building as one depending on the head-stone of the corner. God laid the foundation in the death of His Son; He completed the building in His resurrection.

The walls of living stones rest securely on this Rock of Ages, and are bound everlastingly together on the top-stone. The corner-boards of the Tabernacle may have some reference to these blessed truths. Most beautifully did they prefigure the God-man in His voluntary humiliation, dependent upon and in subjection to the Father. As the perfect Servant He was upheld and sustained by the hands of God the Father from above, the Spirit below ministering to Him. Thus we see, once more, there is a spiritual significance to the minutest detail in these Tabernacle types.

These are described in much detail in vv. The boards were also sustained in their upright position and linked together by five bars of shittim wood, overlaid with gold, which ran through rings or staples of gold inserted in the boards. The middle bar of the five ran the whole length of the Tabernacle, uniting all the twenty boards together; the other four bars, of which two were placed above, and two below the middle bar, are not described as running all the length, but perhaps only extended half the distance, namely, fifteen cubits each.

A similiar number of bars coupled the boards composing the north side, and also the west end of the.

They served to give unity to the structure by securely linking the Boards together. Though totally distinct, yet are His two natures perfectly and forever joined together, though none of us can say where nor understand how they meet. May the Spirit of God continue to unfold to us the glories of our Divine Savior..

Outside of this, as we shall yet see, D. Thus there was really a Tabernacle within a tabernacle. Inside the framework of the golden-covered boards, ceiled by the lovely curtains sad their coverings, were the two inner rooms. The first compartment would thus be thirty feet by fifteen, and the innermost, a separate apartment of fifteen feet by fifteen. In the verses which form the basis of our present study, we find Jehovah giving instructions to Moses concerning the Veil.

He is told of what material it must be made, the manner of its workmanship, and where and how to hang it. Its presence before the holy of holies invested it with a peculiar sanctity and the light from the lampstand shining upon it would reveal its varied beauties. It announced, in the language of symbolry, that the way of approach to God was not then made known. But inasmuch as it was a curtain and not a wall of stone or metal, there was more than a hint given of its temporary nature, and that ultimately a way of access would be revealed.

Seven things will now engage our attention: — 1. The eye of God, who is light, could rest upon that Holy One, and find every ray of His own perfect Being reflected in this lowly but lovely Son of man. Hebrews would give us the anti-type. This seems to intimate that our attention now is to be concentrated more on what was prefigured by the blue and purple and scarlet rather than on what was foreshadowed by the linen itself.

A NEW WITNESS FOR GOD.

The colors told of Heaven, the Cross and the Throne. Probably the colors were used so freely that little of the white linen would be visible. This is specifially defined for us by the Holy Spirit in. The one side of it was seen by human eyes, as the Levites ministered in the Sanctuary; the other side was beheld only by Jehovah.

The Veil, therefore, was a fitting type that Christ incarnate was perfect God and perfect Man. The colors which were embroidered upon it told of the perfections of His person. Its purpose was to shut out the priests of Israel from the holy of holies, where Jehovah had His earthly throne. The object of a veil is to hide. Leviticus was the warning which it consistently gave forth. Thus the Veil foreshadowed the moral glories of the Savior, but at the same time showed, by the very display of such heavenliness of character, how far fallen man was away from God.

The perfect Manhood of Christ exhibited the only humanity which can approach unto God, which can live in His presence. The flawless life of Christ made the more evident the awful distance between the thrice holy God and depraved and guilty sinners.

BE THE FIRST TO KNOW

Men might admire the beauty of the Veil; as men may today admire the human character of Christ after the flesh, and the teaching of His earthly life. It was not the object of the Veil to give access to God; for it was that which prevented it. Typically, the Veil, in O. It did not suggest that there was no way, but simply that the way was not then revealed.

This, too, foreshadowed the coming Substance, yet also bore testimony to the temporary nature of that dispensation. It announced that the way for sinful man to go to God was by sacrifice, yet the one Aaron offered was not that which opened up the real way to God. The Veil unrent signified that the way into the Holiest was not yet revealed. The sacrifice by which Aaron went in once a year foreshadowed the perfect Sacrifice, and his admittance typified the entrance of our Great High Priest into the Heavenly Sanctuary.

But if the unrent Veil signified that the true way was not yet made known, it also implied it would be made known. Faith, then, using what was a figure for the time then present, and what had been imposed on Israel until the time of reformation looked forward to the time of the revelation of the true Sacrifice and the manifestation of the true way of approach to God. Turning now to the N. This rending of the Veil declared that. The sacrifice of Christ is the true ground of approach to God.

His death, His blood, has opened up the way to His presence. The rending of the Veil of the Temple when Christ died, was the sign that the way to God which faith had been taught to look forward to had been opened up.

The typical significance of the cherubim here is a double one, accordingly as we view the Veil itself in its twofold aspect.
