Melchizedek's Tabernacle of Victory.Welcome to Melchizedek's Tabernacle of Victory. Listen as Derick discusses biblical issues in a way that brings Wisdom and Truth directly from God's Word, directly to you! This week's show is called "The Lord Our Banner." Tune in and hear Derick as he continues to bring clarity to the Word of God. This episode focuses on the theme of “the Lord, our banner,” presenting it as a message of victory, protection, and spiritual authority. It draws on Isaiah 13, Revelation 12, and Deuteronomy 20 to describe spiritual conflict, the casting down of Satan, and the believer's overcoming through the blood of the Lamb and testimony.The teaching also explains the symbolic meaning of the woman clothed with the sun, the moon under her feet, and the crown of twelve stars, connecting these images to the church, God's people, and spiritual authority. It ends by encouraging believers not to fear battle, but to trust God's presence, stand firm in faith, speak God's word, and resist false doctrine.https://www.talknetworkradio.com/hosts/mtov/mtov-podcasts

As we celebrate the Feast of Tabernacles 2026, let us see what this prophetically means.  Listen each day to learn what it means to "Tabernacle" with God.  

A nation of former slaves builds a tent in the desert, and the Bible gives it more space than the creation of the universe. Inside that tent, the God of heaven chooses to dwell in the middle of a camp. And at the entrance, an endless river of blood. Bulls, goats, lambs, day after day, year after year. Then the prophets speak, and what they say is shocking. God desires mercy, not sacrifice. He takes no delight in burnt offerings. So did the God who commanded the altar ever actually want what happened on it?In this episode, Johnny Ova sits down with Dr. Nathan MacDonald, Professor of the Interpretation of the Old Testament at the University of Cambridge and one of the world's leading scholars on Israelite worship, the priesthood, and the Tabernacle. Together they walk into the tent at the center of Israel's story: what sacrifice actually accomplished, why the presence of God was both a gift and a danger, what really happened when a worshiper laid his hand on the animal, and how the family of Aaron quietly rose from cultic servants to the most powerful men in the nation.In this episode you will learn:Why sacrifice feels so alien to modern readers, and what it meant in a world where meat never came neatly packagedWhat Israel's neighbors believed sacrifice accomplished, and how Israel's understanding was differentWhy the prophets seem to reject the very sacrifices the Torah commandsThe two names of the Tabernacle, and how each one unlocks what it was forWhy the Bible spends more time on this tent than on creation itselfWhat the deaths of Nadab, Abihu, and Uzzah reveal about holinessWhat laying a hand on the animal may have actually meantThe different types of sacrifices, and what each one was designed to doHow Aaron's family went from cultic servants to ruling the nationThe hidden rivalry between the priests and the Levites buried in the textMeet Our Guest:Dr. Nathan MacDonald is Professor of the Interpretation of the Old Testament at the University of Cambridge and Fellow of St John's College.The Making of the Tabernacle and the Construction of Priestly Hegemony: https://global.oup.com/academic/product/the-making-of-the-tabernacle-and-the-construction-of-priestly-hegemony-9780198813859Priestly Rule: Polemic and Biblical Interpretation in Ezekiel 44Deuteronomy and the Meaning of MonotheismNot Bread Alone: The Uses of Food in the Old TestamentStay in touch with Johnny:Website: johnnyova.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@thejohnnyovaCheck out Johnny's latest book on the Book of Revelation: https://a.co/d/hiUkW8H

Joshua BoydEvery Light Has a SourceWalk Through the Bible: The TabernacleAs we continue our study of the Tabernacle and the golden lampstand, we turn our attention from the light to the oil that made the light possible. The lampstand was commanded to burn continually—but every light has a source.The Oil for the LampIn Exodus 27:20–21, God commanded the Israelites to bring pure olive oil so the lamps could remain continually lit. Significantly, the oil was supplied by the people. If the oil stopped flowing, the light went out.The Tabernacle was never merely about furniture, rituals, or sacrifices. God revealed its purpose in His command to Moses: build Me a sanctuary “so I can live among them.” The Tabernacle pointed toward God's continuing desire to dwell with His people.Revelation shows the fulfillment of that desire. In the New Jerusalem, there is no need for the sun or moon because God's glory illuminates the city and the Lamb is its light (Revelation 21:22–25). God Himself is the ultimate source of light.Not by Might, but by My SpiritZechariah 4 gives us another picture of the lampstand. Zechariah sees a golden lampstand continually supplied with oil from two olive trees. Unlike the Tabernacle, where people continually replenished the oil, this lampstand was connected directly to its source.When Zechariah asks what the vision means, God answers:“Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit.”The oil points us toward the Holy Spirit. Our spiritual light isn't sustained by our intelligence, strength, determination, or ability. The Holy Spirit is our source.We aren't called to manufacture the light—we're called to stay connected to the source.Keep Your Oil FullJesus' parable of the ten bridesmaids in Matthew 25:1–13 reinforces this truth. Five were prepared with enough oil; five allowed their supply to run out. When the bridegroom arrived, only those who were prepared were ready.The lesson is both future and present: keep your lamp lit and your oil full.The cares and distractions of life can slowly drain us. We can continue moving for a while on our own strength, but eventually we discover that we've been “riding the gas light.”How Do We Stay Filled?Ephesians 5:18–20 gives us a practical answer:Be filled with the Spirit.Sing psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs.Make music to the Lord from your heart.Continually give thanks to God.Notice Scripture doesn't simply say to listen to worship—it tells us to participate. Singing, worshiping, and giving thanks turn our attention away from ourselves and back toward our source.When we feel like everything depends on our strength, wisdom, or ability, it's time to reconnect:Not by my might.Not by my power.But by His Spirit.Bringing the Oil TogetherThere is also something powerful about believers gathering together. Just as the congregation brought oil for the Tabernacle, believers today gather with the Spirit of God dwelling within them.We can receive from God individually, but there is something special about coming together hungry for His presence. We aren't simply an audience—we participate together in worship, revelation, ministry, and the presence of God.Keep the Lamp BurningDon't wait until Sunday to worship. Keep a song in your heart throughout the week. Give thanks to God. Stay connected to the Holy Spirit.We don't know the day or hour of Christ's return, but we also need His light for today—for our families, our jobs, our church, and every decision before us.Every light has a source.If we want our light to continue shining, we must remain connected to ours.Keep your oil full.Keep your lamp lit.Stay filled with the Spirit.ScripturesExodus 25:31–40 • Exodus 27:20–21 • Zechariah 4:1–6 • Matthew 25:1–13 • Ephesians 5:18–20 • Revelation 21:10, 22–25

Father, Open Financial Doors for Kingdom Purpose! "But remember the Lord your God, for it is he who gives you the ability to produce wealth, and so confirms his covenant, which he swore to your ancestors, as it is today." Deuteronomy 8:18 “Supply follows vision.” In other words, markets don't awaken to need; they awaken to a picture of what could be. So, paint it vividly, because "clarity is the magnet that moves resources." God wants to bless us as we align our hearts and ambitions with His purposes, and we become instruments of His provision. As we examine the divine relationship between faith and finances, we can draw inspiration from the story of His people and their journey to fulfill His grand designs. In Deuteronomy 8:18, we are reminded, “But remember the LORD your God, for it is he who gives you the ability to produce wealth.” This verse emphasizes that our financial capabilities are gifts from God — tools for His kingdom. Likewise, 2 Corinthians 9:8 assures us that “God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.” As we navigate our financial landscapes, let us keep Philippians 4:19 close to our hearts: “And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus.” Ephesians 3:20 says, "Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to His power that is at work within us." Imagine standing at the threshold of abundance, knowing that your financial increase isn't just for personal gain but for the purpose of uplifting others. As you encounter challenges, remember that each obstacle can lead to a greater testimony of God's faithfulness. Position your heart to be a conduit of blessing; when you give generously, you embody His love and resourcefulness. As you strive to fulfill the divine calling on your life, the financial doors will swing wide, pouring forth blessings that will overflow into the lives of others. Today, I declare over you that doors of financial opportunity shall be opened wide for you! Just as God provided for the Tabernacle in Exodus, pouring out resources that exceeded expectations, He will do the same in your life. Step into this vision with faith, and let your actions reflect the trust you place in His providence. Allow your journey of faith to inspire those around you as you walk in obedience and generosity. Amen. Philippians 4:19 says, "And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus." Amen. Prayer for the Day!Heavenly Father, thank You for the promise of abundance and the privilege of serving Your kingdom. Lord, release the resources You've assigned to us to fulfill Your purposes. Help us to see the opportunities around us with eyes of faith and to act boldly according to Your direction. May we become channels of blessing, exemplifying Your love through our generosity. In Jesus name, Amen. https://maglife.org

Join hosts Shelly and June Volk on For Zion's Sake as they explore the deep significance of the fall feasts, focusing on Yom Kippur (the Day of Atonement). Reading from Leviticus 23 and Leviticus 16, Shelly and June walk through the high priest's duties, the cleansing rituals, and the symbolic roles of the two goats—the sin offering and the scapegoat. Discover how this most holy day on the Hebrew calendar serves as an intricate, prophetic picture of the complete, once-and-for-all atonement accomplished through Jesus the Messiah. Key Takeaways: The Sacredness of Yom Kippur: Known as the Day of Atonement, Yom Kippur is the most holy day on the Hebrew calendar, observed with fasting, complete rest, and deep self-denial. Meaning of Yom Kippur: Derived from the Hebrew word Kaphar (meaning "to cover"), the day centers on seeking atonement and repentance before God. The Role of the High Priest: High Priest Aaron had to first offer sacrifices for himself and his household before he could intercede and make atonement for the assembly of Israel. The Two Goats: One goat served as a blood sacrifice on the mercy seat inside the veil, while the live goat (the scapegoat) bore the confessed iniquities, transgressions, and sins of the people away into the wilderness. Foreshadowing of Messiah: The yearly sacrifices of the Old Covenant were preliminary patterns showing God's specific plan for redemption, ultimately fulfilled permanently through the cross. Scripture References: Isaiah 62:1 – "For Zion's sake I will not keep silent, and for Jerusalem's sake I will not keep quiet..." Leviticus 23:26–32 – The commandment regarding the Day of Atonement as a perpetual statute. Leviticus 16:3–22 – Detailed instructions for the High Priest, the Tabernacle sacrifices, and the two goats.

From Sunday 9/20, CrossLife lead pastor Ricky Massengale continues our study through Hebrews. This passage from Hebrews chapter 9 contrasts the levitical tabernacle of the Old Testament with the new covenant through Christ.

Fr Adrian Crowley reflects on the Holy Spirit as helper, counsellor, comforter and advocate, and tells the story of a young Karol Wojtyla spending six hours prostrate before the tabernacle in an unfamiliar convent chapel the night before he was made a bishop. He closes with love poured out for Mary in the words of Padre Pio and the Curé of Ars, and a meditation on the kind of faith Jesus called great enough to work miracles.

The Tabernacle is a love story of a holy God longing to dwell with His people. We usually see the Tabernacle as a collection of instructions, measurements, and sacred furnishings. Yet woven through its curtains, patterns and sacrifices is a divine mystery. Long before Bethlehem, God was already painting the portrait of His Son, the fulfilment of it all. The Tabernacle is the canvas; Jesus is the portrait.

One of the most tragic realities in modern Christianity is that many do not truly understand the Old Testament. Too often, it gets neglected and treated as an optional preamble to the New Testament. However, this collection of books, written over centuries and centuries, informed not only Jewish belief and practice but also pointed to the coming Messiah. These scriptures provided the foundation from which Jesus taught and the Apostles drew extensively. One of the core problems, I think, is that we fail to see the Old Testament narrative as our story. The people seem so distant and different from us, the circumstances almost alien, and the stories and characters confusing. We can, sadly, sometimes be a people with amnesia. An individual who can't access their memories changes; their personality and moods often aren't what they once were. Similarly, our biblical amnesia can mean that we start to change; our spiritual personality is off-center. Sandra Richter, an Old Testament scholar, puts it this way when addressing the consequences of us not understanding this part of Scripture. The first, and to me most heartbreaking, [problem] is that most Christians have not been taught that the Old Testament is their story. This has the consequence that, The Church does not know who she is, because she does not know who she was. I bring this up because this twelfth chapter of Hebrews contains some important, but often difficult, applications. If we dont understand where the author is coming from, we can misunderstand and misapply the principles this chapter gives us. So, I think it would be good to take stock of where weve come from. While we walk through Hebrews 12 together, please keep this in the back of your mind; you are in this story too. To make sure that we are grounded and ready for the applications this passage has in store for us, we need to do some review. Hebrews was originally written as a letter, potentially as a transcription of a sermon, to Jewish Christians in the middle of the 1st century. It was written primarily to show four things: Jesus is preeminent above all things Jesus is the fulfillment of Gods promises Jesus established a new and better covenant Offer a warning against falling away from Jesus Said a different way: Jesus is better than anything, because He is God Therefore, Jesus could fulfill all of Gods promises Therefore, Jesus satisfied the old covenant and made a better one Therefore, we should cling to Jesus because He is our only hope Remember how this letter opens. It starts by pointing to just how much better Jesus is. 1:1 Long ago, at many times and in many ways, God spoke to our fathers by the prophets, 2but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom He appointed the heir of all things, through whom also he created the world. 3He is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of His nature, and He upholds the universe by the word of His power. (Heb 1:1-3a) Ultimately, Jesus is better than everything else because He is God. He radiates Gods glory and is the exact imprint of His nature. The universe was created through Him and is upheld by Him. The letter then goes on to unpack how Jesus is better than anything else the Hebrew people have encountered as the chosen people of God. Were going to fly through this, but please refer back to Shauns sermons if youd like to dive deeper into any of these. According to the text, Jesus is better than: The prophets (1:1-3) The angels (1:4-14; 2:5-9) Moses (3:1-6) The Land of Promise and Joshua (4:1-8) The Sabbath Rest (4:8-13) The Levitical Priesthood (4:14-5:6; 7) The Old Covenant (8:1-13) The Tabernacle and Temple (9:1-10) The Sacrificial System (9:11-10:18) Thats quite a list! And I want us to pause and recognize how revolutionary this was for the people of the time. This would be similar to somebody coming into our church and saying, Im better than Calvin or Luther. In fact, Im greater than Paul, John, Matthew, and the rest of the apostles. I am better than a church service. Even more, Im elevated above baptism and the Lord's Supper. I know Wyomingites can be a reserved bunch, but Im pretty sure there would be a riot. When Jesus stepped into history, was born of a virgin, died a criminals death, and then rose in grand victory, He defied all 1st-century Jewish expectations of the Messiah and, indeed, the entire notion of what it meant to be Gods people. But it goes even further! The author of Hebrews not only gives us this grand language about Jesus being really awesome (thats a technical theological word, by the way), but also explains how Jesus fulfills Gods promises made in prophecy. No other New Testament book has a higher density of Old Testament quotations than Hebrews. The author constantly points back to the prophets who promised a Messiah to save both Israel and the world. We see that Jesus would: Become incarnate as a human (2:5-8) Be a priest outside of the Levitical priesthood (5:6) Establish a new covenant (8:6-12) Do away with the sacrificial system (10:5-7) Die on a cross (12:2) These are just a few examples, but they get us to the heart of the matter. The author is trying to get his audience to see that Jesus is the one theyve been waiting for, the one of promise. He lived the perfect and sinless life that they could not, and yet died the death that they deserved. Put in more personal terms, Jesus lived the perfect and sinless life that I cannot, and yet He died the death that I deserve. This gave Him the ability to satisfy the Old Covenant on our behalf, pay our penalty, and then rise to new life, conquer death, and make a way for us to enter again into the presence of God. Hebrews tells us of this new covenant. 6 But as it is, Christ has obtained a ministry that is as much more excellent than the old as the covenant he mediates is better, since it is enacted on better promises. 7 For if that first covenant had been faultless, there would have been no occasion to look for a second. ... 12 For I will be merciful toward their iniquities, and I will remember their sins no more. 13 In speaking of a new covenant, he makes the first one obsolete. And what is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to vanish away. (8:6-7, 12-13) Brothers and sisters, there could be no better news than this. Because of Jesus, our sins are no longer remembered, and we receive Gods mercy. We no longer stand condemned by the Law, but have been restored to a relationship with the living God. Remember, this is the story of all Gods people. Try as we might to live up to the Law, we cannot. But Jesus did. And then He ushered in a new covenant. But we must be careful, however. The author also has warnings for us. You can hear this writer's pleading to his readers in the opening of the second chapter. 2:1 Therefore we must pay much closer attention to what we have heard, lest we drift away from it. 2 For since the message declared by angels proved to be reliable, and every transgression or disobedience received a just retribution, 3 how shall we escape if we neglect such a great salvation? It was declared at first by the Lord, and it was attested to us by those who heard, 4 while God also bore witness by signs and wonders and various miracles and by gifts of the Holy Spirit distributed according to his will. (Heb 2:1-4) Pay attention! the author is shouting. Dont drift away! Look at what happened in Israels past when they walked away from God and tried to forge their own path. Remember the golden calf. Remember the exile in Babylon. Jesus rose and spoke to us! Hear how many people testified about what they saw. Remember the miracles. We have a better covenant now! Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life. Consider what happened to those who ignored the old covenant. What will happen to us now if we neglect the better covenant? We still hear the author's plea nearly 2,000 years later. Dont let go. Whatever you do, dont let go of Jesus. You can write this progression of thought as a formula. Remember it; I promise it will be important later on. Jesus is better

Today we wrap up our thirty-something weeks in the book of Exodus. We've seen glimpses of Jesus throughout this journey and as we bring things to a close, we see Him even clearer. The Old Testament unlocks the New Testament, and it's beautiful to see the progression of the Lord's presence here on earth. First in the Tabernacle, then in the Incarnate Christ, and finally His Spirit coming to live within us as believers.

The miraculous conception and birth of the Blessed Virgin Mary removed the shame of barrenness from her parents, Saints Joachim & Anna. She was a precursor of the One Who would come through her to remove the shame of us all, our Lord Jesus Christ. To honor this most blessed among women, we look to the types fulfilled by her in the Old Testament. She is the fulfillment of the Ark of the Covenant, the burning bush, and the golden candle stand in the Tabernacle. As we do so, we remember that when we consider the Mother of God, she either reveals something wondrous about her Son our Lord, or we see something of our most true selves because of Him.

Are you a gospel trumpet? That is the dominant image which Spurgeon employs for his sermon from 1 Thessalonians 1:8 about sounding forth the word of the Lord. The sermon builds to some applications which are very specific to the Metropolitan Tabernacle in Spurgeon's time, and we need to take that into account as we reach them. However, they can easily be turned to help us in our own situations, and the principles which lie behind them are broadly true. So, we are urged to consider the trumpeters themselves, the kind of men who make God's word to sound out, with Spurgeon ranging across Paul's description of the Thessalonian believers in his letters to them. This is really a brief study in Christian character. Then we turn to the trumpets, and see how it is that they give forth such a penetrating sound, and here we are in the realm of Christian experience and obedience. Thirdly, Spurgeon insists that there was a pressing present need for just such a trumpet-blast as sounded from the Thessalonian believers, and here the flavour of the hour begins to bleed through, but in a way that I think makes the modern reader add his, “Amen!” to the preacher's assessment. Finally comes the question of whether or not his immediate congregation had an obligation to sound forth that trumpet-note. While some of the qualities and opportunities Spurgeon identifies are very tightly tied to the Tabernacle gathering, they raise questions and challenges for every church and each believer as to how we respond to the need of the present hour.

Are you a gospel trumpet? That is the dominant image which Spurgeon employs for his sermon from 1 Thessalonians 1:8 about sounding forth the word of the Lord. The sermon builds to some applications which are very specific to the Metropolitan Tabernacle in Spurgeon's time, and we need to take that into account as we reach them. However, they can easily be turned to help us in our own situations, and the principles which lie behind them are broadly true. So, we are urged to consider the trumpeters themselves, the kind of men who make God's word to sound out, with Spurgeon ranging across Paul's description of the Thessalonian believers in his letters to them. This is really a brief study in Christian character. Then we turn to the trumpets, and see how it is that they give forth such a penetrating sound, and here we are in the realm of Christian experience and obedience. Thirdly, Spurgeon insists that there was a pressing present need for just such a trumpet-blast as sounded from the Thessalonian believers, and here the flavour of the hour begins to bleed through, but in a way that I think makes the modern reader add his, "Amen!" to the preacher's assessment. Finally comes the question of whether or not his immediate congregation had an obligation to sound forth that trumpet-note. While some of the qualities and opportunities Spurgeon identifies are very tightly tied to the Tabernacle gathering, they raise questions and challenges for every church and each believer as to how we respond to the need of the present hour.

Exodus 40:1–3 (NKJV)1 Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: 2 “On the first day of the first month you shall set up the tabernacle of the tent of meeting. 3 You shall put in it the ark of the Testimony, and partition off the ark with the veil.Exodus 40:16–38 (NKJV)16 Thus Moses did; according to all that the Lord had commanded him, so he did.17 And it came to pass in the first month of the second year, on the first day of the month, that the tabernacle was raised up. 18 So Moses raised up the tabernacle, fastened its sockets, set up its boards, put in its bars, and raised up its pillars. 19 And he spread out the tent over the tabernacle and put the covering of the tent on top of it, as the Lord had commanded Moses. 20 He took the Testimony and put it into the ark, inserted the poles through the rings of the ark, and put the mercy seat on top of the ark. 21 And he brought the ark into the tabernacle, hung up the veil of the covering, and partitioned off the ark of the Testimony, as the Lord had commanded Moses.22 He put the table in the tabernacle of meeting, on the north side of the tabernacle, outside the veil; 23 and he set the bread in order upon it before the Lord, as the Lord had commanded Moses. 24 He put the lampstand in the tabernacle of meeting, across from the table, on the south side of the tabernacle; 25 and he lit the lamps before the Lord, as the Lord had commanded Moses. 26 He put the gold altar in the tabernacle of meeting in front of the veil; 27 and he burned sweet incense on it, as the Lord had commanded Moses. 28 He hung up the screen at the door of the tabernacle. 29 And he put the altar of burnt offering before the door of the tabernacle of the tent of meeting, and offered upon it the burnt offering and the grain offering, as the Lord had commanded Moses. 30 He set the laver between the tabernacle of meeting and the altar, and put water there for washing; 31 and Moses, Aaron, and his sons would wash their hands and their feet with water from it. 32 Whenever they went into the tabernacle of meeting, and when they came near the altar, they washed, as the Lord had commanded Moses. 33 And he raised up the court all around the tabernacle and the altar, and hung up the screen of the court gate. So Moses finished the work.34 Then the cloud covered the tabernacle of meeting, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle. 35 And Moses was not able to enter the tabernacle of meeting, because the cloud rested above it, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle. 36 Whenever the cloud was taken up from above the tabernacle, the children of Israel would go onward in all their journeys. 37 But if the cloud was not taken up, then they did not journey till the day that it was taken up. 38 For the cloud of the Lord was above the tabernacle by day, and fire was over it by night, in the sight of all the house of Israel, throughout all their journeys.

Patrick opens with hard-hitting questions on salvation and evangelization, confronting listeners with challenging truths from Scripture about who really enters heaven. He weaves a vivid analogy likening salvation to hitting a dartboard’s center, pressing the urgency of embracing the Catholic faith fully and honestly wrestling with its demands. Addressing topics from holy death and prayers for the dead to reverence at Mass and the nuances of valid Catholic marriage, Patrick moves fast, never shying from uncomfortable realities or pressing listeners to think deeper about their journey. Email - Why do we evangelize when more people can be saved without evangelization? (00:38) Diane - I pray for the holy souls all the time. Is it wrong for me to pray for mine and my husband's soul since no one else will? (13:22) Joe - I think it is appropriate to genuflect before the Tabernacle. I am assuming there is no Church stance on this, so it is an opinion issue. (23:07) Carol – What is your opinion on the necessity of the convalidation of a marriage later in life after 36 years of marriage? I’m trying to return to Church. (30:49) Patrick in Florida - I had a mass offered for my father this weekend. They only mentioned his name in the prayers of the faithful. Does this count as indeed being offered for him?

What happens when we stop asking what we want and start seeking the place where God chooses to dwell? 1 Kings Chapter 8 reveals one of the most powerful moments in the entire Bible: the dedication of Solomon's Temple and the moment the glory of God fills the House. In this chapter of Prophets of Israel Daily, Ari Abramowitz and Jeremy Gimpel explore the meaning of the Shechina, the cloud that fills the Temple, and why this moment connects directly back to the Tabernacle in the wilderness. In this chapter learn: • Solomon brings the Ark of the Covenant into the Holy of Holies. • The cloud of the Shechina fills the Temple and the priests cannot stand to minister. • Jeremy and Ari explore the connection between Solomon's Temple and the Tabernacle of Moses. • Why did Solomon describe the Arafel (עֲרָפֶל) and the cloud surrounding the Temple? • David's dream of building the Temple is finally fulfilled through his son Solomon. • Why Jerusalem became the place God chose for His dwelling place. • The Ark and the tablets of the Ten Commandments connect the Temple back to Sinai. • A powerful reflection on how one generation carries the dream while another generation fulfills it.

Scott Stripling's team put out a press release about their latest season at Shiloh. Roughly 400 news stories followed. What his team actually found is more interesting. Since 2017 they've been excavating a building whose dimensions, orientation, and dating all match what we'd expect of the tabernacle and Scott is careful to say it's a strong candidate, not a confirmed identification. He's running the largest dig team in the Middle East, largely funded by people who want the Bible confirmed. What keeps that from shaping the conclusions? His answer is worth hearing.
