Make a curtain of blue, purple and
scarlet yarn and finely twisted linen, with cherubim worked into it
by a skilled craftsman. Hang it with gold hooks on four posts of
acacia wood overlaid with gold and standing on four silver bases.
hang the curtain from the clasps and place the ark of the Testimony
behind the curtain. The curtain will separate the Holy Place from
the Most Holy Place. Put the atonement cover on the ark of the
Testimony in the Most Holy Place. Place the table outside the
curtain on the north side of the tabernacle and put the lamp stand
opposite it on the south side.
EXODUS 26:31-35 NIV
And when Jesus had cried out again
in a loud voice, he gave up his spirit,
At that moment the curtain of the
temple was torn in two from top to bottom. The earth shook and the
rocks split.
MATTHEW 27:50-51 NIV
Read the intricate details in the
first scripture. It is a step by step description of how
to erect the temple curtain. The acacia wood (and it must be
acacia wood) must be overlaid with
gold and have cherubim worked into
it by a skilled craftsman. The details paint a
very specific picture.
The New Testament scripture very
simply reveals that Christ made the temple curtain unnecessary.
The best laid plans of mice and men (to
swipe from John Steinbeck) are/were inferior.
How often are you working from the
Exodus blueprint when the truth is that
there is a better plan?
