The Tabernacle is a very important subject in the Bible. There are more than 50 complete chapters dealing solely with it. That is more than the total numbers of chapters in the gospels of Matthew and Mark. It is important to us too, as a copy, a shadow, and a pattern of heavenly things, as Hebrews 8:5 indicates. The Tabernacle also illustrates the preparations we need to make if we want to enter God’s presence.
The three parts of the Tabernacle each correspond to the three fold nature of man. The Outer court corresponds to the body, the Holy Place illustrates man’s soul, and the Holy of the Holies represents man’s spirit.
