Best of Blog (9): The Wilderness Tabernacle

tabernacle model Under the category of neat links, there is a good looking model of Israel's wilderness tent
sanctuary at the Glen Cairn Museum WebSite. The model attempts to reconstruct the tabernacle based on its biblical descriptions in the Pentateuch, where, by the way, it receives more verses devoted to it than to any other object. According to the biblical description, the tabernacle contained the ark, an incense altar, a table, a seven-light menora, an eternal light, Aaron’s staff, the vessels that are used by the priests, a container of manna, and a scroll written by Moses.

There is a neat QuickTime movie about it all that is rather fun to watch. To see the movie, click here.
