April 27–May 3: “Holiness to the Lord”Exodus 35–40; Leviticus 1; 4; 16; 19Leaving Egypt—as important as that was—didn't fully accomplish God's purposes for the children of Israel. Even a comfortable life in the promised land wasn't God's ultimate goal for them. These were only steps toward what God really wanted for His people: “Ye shall be holy: for I the Lord your God am holy” (Leviticus 19:2). How did God plan to make His people holy after they had lived in captivity for generations? He commanded them to create a place of holiness in the wilderness—a tabernacle. He gave them covenants and laws to guide their actions and change their hearts. And He commanded them to make animal sacrifices to teach them about atonement for their sins. All of this was meant to point their minds, hearts, and lives toward the Savior. He is the true path to holiness, for the Israelites and for us. We have all spent some time in the captivity of sin, and we are all invited to leave sin behind and follow Jesus Christ, who has promised, “I am able to make you holy” (Doctrine and Covenants 60:7).Ideas for Teaching ChildrenExodus 35:20–29; 36:1God has given me gifts to help with His work.
This Sunday, Tyler Wilhelm, our Youth Director, walked through the building of the tabernacle, where God's people respond with generosity and faithful obedience. As the work is carried out exactly as the Lord commanded, we're reminded that God cares about both our hearts and our faithfulness in the details. every piece coming together reflects His holiness, order, and intentional design. We also see a connection back to Genesis 1. Just as God finished creation and saw that it was good, the tabernacle is completed in a similar way. It's a reminder that God is forming something through His people. Not only are we called to give, but to participate in what He is building for His glory. Want to watch a version of this message?

Stephen Angliss | At the conclusion of Exodus, God dwells with His people in the Tabernacle as a result of His grace in response to their adultery, and in response to the faith which they showed through their obedience. As we end our expositional series on Exodus, we see how Exodus forms the bedrock of the entire story of the Bible, and how it outlines the Gospel narrative of how God saved a sinful people and dwelt with them. Join us to find out how Exodus should shape the way you view God, the Bible, and your walk with the Lord.
7 key takeaways from this study The world reeks of death, but God creates a distinct aroma of life. The unique incense in the Mishkan/Temple and the “soothing aroma” of burnt offerings contrast with the stench of death from sin (beginning in Genesis 3, developed in Romans 5). God's presence and appointed patterns (incense, offerings, festivals) mark out a different “smell” in the world. The Tabernacle is a beachhead of Heaven on earth. Like D‑Day or Incheon, God establishes a beachhead in history through Avraham, Israel, and the Mishkan, then breaks out into the nations. Israel is not an accidental or failed project; it is God's chosen instrument to bring life and blessing to all nations. Redemption is a cycle and a journey, not a one‑off event. The seven festivals (Pesach, Matzot, Shavuot, Yom Teruah, Yom Kippur, Sukkot, Shemini Atzeret) form a yearly pattern of ransom, reform, and regeneration. Israel's journey from Egypt to the Land pictures our own journey from bondage to freedom, from old life to being “born again” as a new people. Yeshua is both the Pesach Lamb and the fragrance of life. His blood on the “doorposts” blocks the destroyer and the wrath against the kingdom of oppression. In 2Corinthians 2, believers become the “fragrance of Messiah” — to some, an aroma of life; to others, an aroma from death to death. The “ministry of death” and the “ministry of the Spirit” are connected, not enemies. The Torah engraved on stone exposes sin and death (ministry of death/condemnation), but within it is also the pattern of reconciliation (sacrifices, priesthood, appointments). In Messiah and by the Spirit, that same pattern reaches its fullness: the Word written on hearts, not just on stone (2Corinthians 3; Romans 7–8). Believers are now the living Mishkan and a letter from Messiah. We are living stones (1Peter 2) and living sacrifices (Romans 12), a spiritual house and royal priesthood. Our lives function as a letter and as incense — visible and fragrant testimony of whom we've been with and who indwells us. True tikkun olam (renewing of the world) begins from the inside out. Material help (food, housing, etc.) is vital but incomplete if the inner “hole” in people is never addressed. God planted Israel — and now the enlarged people of God — to bring inner transformation (by the Spirit, through the Word and Messiah), not just external patching of problems. The rock song “That Smell” has a refrain common to reflections about the interplay between self-destruction and death: “Can’t you smell that smell? … The smell of death surrounds you.” Scripture similarly uses the senses to contrast the smell of death versus the aroma of life. This picture is rooted first in Gan Eden, the Garden of Eden. When Adam and Chavah (Eve) chose the tree of the knowledge of good and evil as their source of wisdom, sin entered and death spread to all humanity (Genesis 3; Romans 5:12). Since then, the world has carried a spiritual stench. Decay, corruption, and suffering permeate human history. Humanity tries to mask that smell. Medieval plague doctors stuffed their beak-like masks with flowers and herbs to cover the odor of death. Modern professionals who deal with death use ointments and tricks of the trade to do the same. In the same way, people attempt to paper over spiritual death — pleasure, distraction, ideology, even religion without transformation. Yet Scripture presents a different kind of aroma. Not a mask, but a change at the root. God introduces קָרְבָּנוֹת korbanot (things that “draw near,” offerings) and קְטֹרֶת ketóret (incense) in the מִשְׁכָּן Mishkan, (“dwelling place,” Tabernacle). These are not mere rituals. They become signs of Heaven's answer to the smell of death. Unique aromas in the Mishkan The Torah gives a precise, non-copyable recipe for the incense on the golden altar in the Holy Place (Exodus 30:34–38). That fragrance must never become a common household scent. It belongs exclusively to the presence of God. When someone smells that aroma, there should be only one association: the dwelling place of the Holy One, blessed be He. In the Heichal (Holy Place), just before the פָּרֹכֶת paróchet (veil) that guards the קֹדֶשׁ הַקֳּדָשִׁים Kódesh HaKodashim (Holy of Holies), the golden altar sends up a continual column of smoke. This is not about air freshening. It is a constant symbol of heavenward attention, prayer, and worship. Outside, in the courtyard, another aroma rises from the מִזְבֵּחַ הָעוֹלָה mizbeach ha’olam (altar of burnt offering), the bronze altar. The Torah calls those offerings a רֵיחַ נִיחוֹחַ reach nichóach (“soothing aroma to the LORD,” Leviticus 1:9, 13, 17). From a human nose's point of view, burning animal flesh, hide, and hooves is not soothing. Yet in God's economy, it is the people's total gift — coming in, going up in smoke — that pleases Him. Therefore, two key aromas emerge: The bronze altar: the whole burnt offering, life laid down. The golden altar of incense: continual fragrance of worship and intercession. Both speak to the same reality. The smell of death fills the world, but God establishes particular, holy aromas that signal reconciliation and life. The Mishkan as a demonstration of life The Mishkan is not just a religious structure. It is a visible, mobile demonstration of life. It is the dwelling place of the Creator of heaven and earth, the One who gives and restores life. The people bring offerings. They draw near. They receive cleansing and communion. The presence of God in their midst redefines the camp. Later, King David longs for a more permanent resting place for the Divine Name. He notes the mismatch: he lives in a house of cedar, while the ark of God remains under tent curtains (2Samuel 7:2). Eventually, the בֵּית הַמִּקְדָּשׁ Beit HaMikdash (“House of the Dwelling,” the Temple) in Jerusalem becomes that resting place. Even then, Scripture insists that no building can truly contain God. Solomon prays: “But will God indeed dwell on the earth? Behold, heaven and the highest heaven cannot contain You, how much less this house which I have built!” 1Kings 8:27 NASB95 Still, God chooses to cause His Name to dwell there. 1Kings 8 describes the cloud of glory filling the house, echoing the cloud that once filled the Mishkan (Exodus 40:34–35). The Temple becomes a focal point for all nations. Solomon prays that foreigners who come and pray toward this house would be heard in heaven, so that “all the peoples of the earth may know Your name” (1Kings 8:41–43). This is already the blueprint for a “house of prayer for all nations” (Isaiah 56:7; cited in Matthew 21:13). Israel's sanctuary is never meant to be a private club. It is the visible evidence that Heaven is taking up residence on earth. Israel as God's beachhead On D‑Day, Allied forces established a beachhead in Normandy, France, to free Europe from Nazi Germany. It was not enough to land. They had to break out or be crushed on the shore. Similarly, in the Korean War, U.N. forces nearly lost the peninsula, pushed back to Busan. The landing at Incheon became a new beachhead, which allowed a breakout that trapped the enemy. Israel is Heaven's beachhead on earth. God calls Avraham out of Ur, promises him a land, seed, and blessing for all families of the earth (Genesis 12:1–3). That calling grows into a nation, enslaved in מִצְרַיִם Mitzrayim (Egypt), then redeemed at Pesach (Passover, Exodus 12). Pesach marks the beginning of months (Exodus 12:1–2). It is the start of a journey from bondage to freedom, from one kingdom to another. Yet, before Israel can enter the Land, the first generation must die in the wilderness. The second generation enters. In that sense, Israel must be “born again” before entering the rest of the Land (cf. Numbers 14; Deuteronomy 1–2). From this angle, the cycle of the מוֹעֲדִים mo'adim (appointed times) — Pesach, Chag HaMatzot (Unleavened Bread), Shavuot (Pentecost), Yom Teruah (Feast of Trumpets), Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement), Sukkot (Feast of Tabernacles), and Shemini Atzeret — traces a pattern of ransom, reforming and regeneration. Heaven is not just visiting. Heaven is establishing a front line. That beachhead pushes outward until it fills the earth. Ministry of death and the ministry of the Spirit Paul in 2Corinthians 2–3 writes that God “manifests through us the sweet aroma of the knowledge of Him in every place” (2Corinthians 2:14, NASB95). Believers become a fragrance of מָשִׁיחַ, Mashiach (Messiah, Christ) to God (2Corinthians 2:15–16): To those being saved, an aroma from life to life. To those perishing, an aroma from death to death. This is the same theme as the Mishkan. The same incense that delights God may expose death in those who reject Him. Paul contrasts two kinds of “letter” using Greek terms: γράμμα grámma: the written letter, that which is engraved or inscribed. ἐπιστολή epistolḗ: a letter or epistle, a communication sent. In 2Corinthians 3, he speaks of “the letter” (grámma) that kills, but “the Spirit” that gives life (2Corinthians 3:6). He points to the “ministry of death, in letters engraved on stones” — the tablets given to Moshe (Moses, 2Corinthians 3:7). This ministry came with glory. Israel could not stare at Moshe's shining face (Exodus 34:29–35). Yet Paul does not pit Torah against the Spirit. Instead, he uses a classic Hebrew קַל וְחֹמֶר kal va-chomér (light and heavy) argument. If the ministry that condemns comes with glory, how much more will the ministry of the Spirit overflow with glory (2Corinthians 3:8–9). The תּוֹרָה Torah (instruction) on stone reveals sin and pronounces death. It says, “Here is life, here is death. Choose life!” (Deuteronomy 30:19). At the same time, embedded in the Torah are the patterns for reconciliation — offerings, priesthood, the Day of Atonement. The “ministry of death” exposes the need. The “ministry of the Spirit” accomplishes the inward change. Paul says: Not that we are adequate in ourselves… but our adequacy is from God, who also made us adequate as servants of a new covenant, not of the letter but of the Spirit. 2Corinthians 3:5–6, NASB95 The בְּרִית חֲדָשָׁה brit chadasháh (new covenant) promise in the Prophets includes God writing His Torah on hearts, giving a new spirit and a new heart, and cleansing from iniquity (Jeremiah 31:31–34; Ezekiel 36:25–27). This as fulfilled in Messiah Yeshua. From tablets of stone to tablets of the heart In 2Corinthians 3, Paul changes imagery. He says the believers themselves are his “letter” (epistolḗ), not written with ink but “with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of human hearts” (2Corinthians 3:3). The transformation of people becomes a visible epistle, read by all. This directly connects back to Moshe. Moses' face reflected God's glory because he spoke “face to face, just as a man speaks to his friend” (Exodus 33:11). That relationship left a visible mark. Israel asked him to veil his face because the radiance unsettled them. Paul explains that a spiritual veil still lies over many hearts when Moshe is read. Only in Messiah is it removed (2 Corinthians 3:14–16). When a person turns to the Lord: Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. 2 Corinthians 3:17 NASB95 Then, with unveiled face, believers behold the glory of the Lord “as in a mirror” and are “being transformed into the same image from glory to glory” (2Corinthians 3:18). The pattern of Moshe, whose face shone, becomes the pattern of all who walk in Messiah by the Spirit. This does not cancel Israel's calling. Instead, it fulfills it. The Torah's goal is not abolished. It reaches its τέλος télos (goal/destination) in Messiah, who embodies Israel's mission and opens it to the nations (cf. Romans 10:4; Romans 11). ‘Living sacrifice,’ ‘living stones’ Apostles Paul and Peter address this in Romans 6–12 and 1Peter 2. Romans 6 describes identification with Messiah's death and resurrection. Believers are buried with Him through immersion and raised to walk in newness of life (Romans 6:3–4). Romans 7 faces the tension: the righteous standard of the Torah confronts human inability, leading to the cry, “Who will set me free from the body of this death?” (Romans 7:24). Romans 8 announces the answer in Messiah and the Spirit. Romans 9–11 then wrestles with Israel's calling. Did God plant Israel only to abandon her? Paul answers “no.” Israel is like an olive tree. Natural branches may be cut off for unbelief. Wild branches (from the nations) may be grafted in. Yet the root — God's covenantal work in Israel — supports all (Romans 11:17–24). God did not create Israel “to be nothing.” He created Israel to fill the earth with blessing. Then Romans 12 begins: Therefore I urge you, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living and holy sacrifice, acceptable to God…. Romans 12:1 NASB95 This is Mishkan language. Instead of animal life going up in smoke, the believer becomes a living sacrifice. Life is placed on God's altar. The mind is renewed. Behavior changes (Romans 12:1–2). This is the practical outworking of Mishkan lessons in everyday discipleship. Similarly, 1Peter 2:4–10 speaks of coming to Messiah as a “living stone” rejected by men but choice and precious to God. Those who come to Him become “living stones… built up as a spiritual house for a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ” (1Peter 2:4–5 NASB95). Peter applies titles from Exodus 19 — “a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God's own possession” (1Peter 2:9) — to this community. This is not replacement but expansion. God takes the original calling of Israel and extends it through Messiah to Jew and Gentile together, without revoking Israel's promises (Romans 11:28–29). The Mishkan pattern is now embodied in a people, not just a building. True tikkun olam: Reformation from the inside out The modern interpretation of תיקון עולם tikkún olám (repair of the world) often focuses on social, political, or environmental repair. These are not unimportant. Feeding the hungry, housing the homeless, and protecting the vulnerable echo the Torah's concern for the widow, orphan, and stranger. However, this study stresses that if tikkun olam stays external, it never truly repairs the world. It may become a sophisticated game of “whack‑a‑mole,” hitting surface problems while deeper issues in the human heart remain untouched. Housing a person without addressing the “hole” within may leave the core problem unsolved. Likewise, nations may shift policies without healing the underlying rebellion, idolatry, and fear. Through Israel and through Messiah, God's plan is ransom, reform, and regeneration. This involves: Cleansing from sin and death (Pesach, Yom Kippur). Ongoing formation as a holy people (Torah, Shabbat, mo'edim). Final renewal of creation with new heavens and a new earth, where death and pain are no more (Isaiah 65–66; Revelation 21:1–4). This work begins in the heart, by the Spirit, through the Word. It then flows out into practical mercy, justice, and witness. Guarding the Word and avoiding counterfeits The study also warns about those who “peddle the word of God” for profit (2Corinthians 2:17). The Greek term there describes a dishonest merchant. Such teachers may start well, building trust with correct first steps, then make a subtle or dramatic leap into error. If hearers are not grounded in Scripture, they may follow. In an age of YouTube prophets and endless online content, discernment becomes essential. Believers are urged to sow to the Spirit rather than the flesh (Galatians 6:8), which includes prioritizing serious engagement with the written Word over sensational voices. The TaNaKh and New Testament together, read in context, with attention to continuity and fulfillment. The Mishkan, the festivals, the prophets, the Gospels, and the epistles form one coherent story. That story centers on Messiah Yeshua and God's desire to dwell among His people and renew the world. The aroma that remains The bronze altar of the Mishkan speaks of what goes up in smoke — old life, old bondage, old attachments. The golden altar of incense speaks of what continues — prayer, worship, intercession. Revelation portrays an altar of incense and speaks of “the prayers of the saints” rising before God like incense (Revelation 5:8; 8:3–4). Some of those saints are martyrs, killed for bearing witness behind enemy lines. Their lives were not wasted. Their aroma still rises. For those in Messiah, life in this age may still carry the smell of death all around. Yet, in the midst of that, God creates a new fragrance. The people of God, Jew and Gentile, become: Living sacrifices on the altar. Living stones in the temple. Letters written by the Spirit. Incense rising before the throne. To some, that aroma will expose death and provoke hostility. To others, it will signal life, hope, and the nearness of the Kingdom. In either case, the fragrance belongs to Him. As Paul writes: For we are a fragrance of Christ to God among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing. 2Corinthians 2:15 NASB95 In a world saturated with the smell of death, God is forming a people who carry the fragrance of life, rooted in Israel's calling, fulfilled in Messiah, and empowered by the Spirit. The post From smell of death to fragrance of life: The Gospel in Israel’s Tabernacle (Exodus 12; 2Corinthians 2–3) appeared first on Hallel Fellowship.

The three most precious artifacts in the Tabernacle were the Ark of the Covenant, the Table for Bread, and the Lampstand, sometimes called the Menorah. All were made of gold, and all were near God's presence in the Holy of Holies. This is because each piece of furniture symbolizes a means by which God is present with His people. The Lampstand—a literal means of giving light—also symbolizes the many ways in which God reveals Himself to those who, by faith, follow Him. Join us to discover why God can only be known because He makes Himself knowable.
Now that the covenant between God and Israel has been confirmed, the time has come for it to be consummated. God is beginning the process of moving into the midst of His people, and by His grace, He chooses to allow Israel to be involved in this process. Instead of creating a dwelling place for Himself, God calls for His people to generously offer back what He has given them, in doing so, He creates a bond far greater than proximity to a tent could ever offer.
Pastor Glenn Lawson preaches through Exodus 25, in which God commands the Israelites to build a Tabernacle to house His presence and commune with His people. What is the New Testament version of the Tabernacle? How does He want to commune with us today?

The Promise of the Tabernacle - Exodus 25-31 (January 26, 2025) by Michael B. Linton
The Tabernacle (Exodus): The Tabernacle was more than a physical structure or a fancy tent. It was a reminder of the reality of God's presence with his people and their relationship with him. This message resonates through the pages of scripture all the way to us today. The construction details, while tedious, were never meaningless. Every curtain, stake, and crossbar pointed to something far greater than itself. And in that perfect design, an invitation remains for us to draw near. Recorded on Jan 26, 2025, on Exodus 25-27 by Ted Selker. This message is part of our Exodus series called Journey to Freedom. Exodus is a story of liberation — of God working to rescue and redeem a people for himself, freeing them from slavery and leading them to the land he promised to the family of Abraham and Sarah. Exodus is also a picture of the gospel and the Christian life. In Christ, we, too, are freed from captivity to sin and death and led through the wilderness of life by God's Word and Presence as we make our way to the Promised Land of the world to come. Join us as we make this journey to find true and lasting freedom.

More Than a Song - Discovering the Truth of Scripture Hidden in Today's Popular Christian Music
Send us a textWhen my mom shared Jonathan Traylor's song "The Table" with me, I knew I wanted to use it as a launching point on the podcast closest to my debut novel release, "A Seat at the Table." I contend that the world sees a "seat at the table" as an opportunity for power and influence. But what does Scripture say about having a seat at the table of Christ? That is what we'll explore in this episode.Let's examine a table in the Old Testament and the table of the Last Supper in the New Testament.In this episode, I discuss the following:Taking a B.I.T.E. out of Scripture – this week's Bible Interaction Tool Exercises include: Read in contextExploring a themeSpecial Episode GiftMy debut novel, A Seat at the Table - Learn MoreHow to evaluate the tables you are sitting atMy newest endeavor, Story Sessions, where I use a story as inspiration to study Scripture (much like I do on the podcast)Exploring the theme of tables in ScriptureExploring the Table of the Bread of Presence in the context of the design/construction of The Tabernacle - Exodus 25-31The Tabernacle was God's dwelling place among His people - Exodus 25:8The Bread of the Presence was a part of the priests' regular interaction with God - Exodus 25:30, Leviticus 24The 12 loaves of bread on the Table of the Bread of Presence represented the 12 tribes.

General Theme for the Week: Lessons from the Tabernacle - How We Have Communion with God Through Christ Today's Lesson: The Ark, the Table of the Bread, and the Lampstand On this edition of One Single Story, Pastors Stephen Mizell and Chris Rexroad discuss the following questions: Why do you think it is important that we recognize how the Tabernacle and each piece of furniture points towards Jesus? How do you see Jesus in the Ark of the Covenant? How do you see Jesus in the Table of the Bread of the Presence? How do you see Jesus in the lampstand? The reading for the day is Exodus 25.

In the second movement of Exodus, Moses walks straight into God's fiery presence on Mount Sinai without fear. But by the end of the scroll, he can't enter God's presence. What changed? Right after confirming their covenant with Yahweh, Israel turns around and commits idolatry by making and worshiping a golden calf. It's a choice that ruptures their relationship with Yahweh and even their connection to Moses. In this episode, join Jon and Tim as they explore the final portion of the third movement of Exodus.View full show notes from this episode →Timestamps Part one (00:00-12:00)Part two (12:00-28:45)Part three (28:45-51:42)Referenced ResourcesInterested in more?
