The Tabernacle, Temple, And Sanctuary: The Book Of Numbers

This is the forth book in this series that began with an in-depth look at how God views details, communicates with this world, and decides what process to use. Which of course turned out to be far different than the process most of us would have used for situations similar to those Moses encountered. The first book in this series looked at God's way of doing what needs to be done, and why He created and followed His specific plan. Of course this series of books looked at aspects recorded in scripture about the Tabernacle. How the materials were collected, specific design details, who did the work, and how the Tabernacle was constructed. Much of that information is found in dozens, maybe hundreds of other books about the Tabernacle. But there are details setting this book apart from every other book written about the Tabernacle. This book takes a verse by verse, story by story, chapter by chapter look at the Tabernacle. In other words, this book presents a picture of the Tabernacle from God's point of view. Which the beginning of this series pointed out, is much different than any human perspective. The vast majority of lessons Moses taught are contained in the series of events he recorded. Those lessons are only locked away due to our ignorance and reluctance to review those events and look at them as a whole. When we do, the lessons, as well as procedure become obvious. After all, how can anyone understand any story without first reading every event contained in the book? God's way of teaching can only be summed up as common sense no one can argue with. Jesus proved that point whenever He left His accusers speechless. The same Spirit who inspired Jesus, inspired Moses. The sooner we accept the fact, God knew exactly what He was doing, and told Moses how to teach those lessons, the sooner we can begin to follow those lessons and become the priests God always needed in this world. Moses showed how Aaron was to train his sons. And parents not associated with the Levitical priesthood were expected to train their children. Moses covered a vast array of lessons showing the relationship between the priesthood and family. Moses also recorded stories showing how the enemy attacks first the outskirts of the camp, then moves his way in to attack on the family level. When we look to the New Testament, we see how the priesthood introduced during that first Passover in Egypt was revealed as a priesthood practiced and developed first on the family level, then progresses to the community level. This book wasn't intended to be a guide to the priesthood centered on the family, but close observation, careful study, prayer, and patience revealed lessons every modern priest needs. Not in traditional terms of a priest, pastor, minister, reverend, or any other label the world has cast upon it, but at the family level where it began in Eden, and Jesus restored at the cross. The organized world of Christianity may not agree with the role of the priest at the family level, but look around and decide. Look at the divorce rate. Look at a list of best selling books. Look at Internet dating sites. Look at the number of sites specializing in Christian singles. Look at the divorce rate in churches. Look at the most popular talk shows on television. Have they helped or hurt the family structure? Has the concept of a priesthood based on a chosen few equipped with a university education worked? Now consider the fact, the vast majority of those few choice people decided to enter that field of work under the strain of an enormous debt. Would they have accumulated that debt if they knew Moses offered more than they could learn in a life time of university education? But Moses never thought of charging a dime. Moses offered a free education at God's command.
