The Furniture of the Tabernacle

This passage describes the special tent, or tabernacle, that God told the Israelites to build as a place of worship. It was called a worldly sanctuary because it was made from materials found on earth and was only temporary. The tabernacle was like a palace for God, the King of Israel, and had special rooms and furniture. Each part of the tabernacle teaches us something about God, about Jesus Christ, and about how people can come close to God.

v. 1: The apostle begins by explaining that the first covenant had rules for worship and an earthly sanctuary. This sanctuary was a physical place made by people, but it was a symbol of something greater (Hebrews 9:1 ^a).
