The Tablets of the Law, the Golden Manna Pot and Aaron's rod.
The Table of Shewbread
The Table of Shewbread
was prepared from Shittim Wood and covered with pure gold. At every
Sabbath priests baked new unleavened bread, which were set on the table
in two piles. There were 12 pieces of bread. The table also had a Golden
Bowl for the drink offering. On top of the bread were golden vessels
for the sweet incense.
Golden Incense Altar
The Golden Incense Altar
was made from Shittim Wood and it was covered with gold. This Incense
Altar was set facing towards the veil, on the other side of which was
the Ark of the covenant. On the incense altar burnt sweet incense every
morning and evening. The smoke of the incense spread all over the
sanctuary reaching up to the Most Holy.
The Altar of Burnt Offering
On the altar of burnt
offerings the fire was never extinguished.
Laver of Brass
The Laver of Brass was
filled with clean water and priests washed their hands and feet with
this water each time they went into the sanctuary to deliver the
service.
The Veil
The veil separated the
Holy from the Most Holy.
The High Priest
The clothes of the high
priest were comprised of different garments. The Ephod was made from
gold, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen. The
girdle of the ephod, which is upon it, shall be of the same, according
to the work thereof; even of gold, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and
fine twined linen. On two onyx stones were engraved the names of the
twelve tribes of Israel (Names of the sons of Israel). Onyx-stones were
put on the shoulders of the high priest. So the high priest carried the
twelve tribes of Israel on his shoulders;
And thou shalt put the two stones upon the
shoulders of the ephod for stones of memorial unto the children of
Israel: and Aaron shall bear their names before the LORD upon his two
shoulders for a memorial,
Exodus
28:12.
The chestplate was made of the
same material as the ephod. The chestplate was square, and on it, four
lines of 12 different jewels were set in gold. On the jewels were
written the names of the twelve tribes of Israel. The chestplate was
attached to the ephod with gold rings. The chestplate was placed on the
heart of the high priest, and in this way the high priest carried on his
heart the twelve tribes of Israel. On the chestplate were also Urim
(Hebrews : lights) and Thummim (Hebrew : perfection), which were
implements of answers of God;
And Aaron shall bear the names of the
children of Israel in the breastplate of judgment upon his heart, when
he goeth in unto the holy place, for a memorial before the LORD
continually. And thou shalt put in the breastplate of judgment the Urim
and the Thummim; and they shall be upon Aaron's heart, when he goeth in
before the LORD: and Aaron shall bear the judgment of the children of
Israel upon his heart before the LORD continually,
Exodus 28:29 30.
The robe of the Ephod was made
of woven work, all of blue, and the hem of the ephod was embroidered
pomegranates of blue and purple and crimson on its hem, all around on
its hem; also bells of gold shall be among them all around. Like this
the nation of Israel was always able to hear where high priest moved.
They put the miter on the head of the high priest, and they put the holy
crown on the miter, which was engraved with the text: HOLINESS TO THE
LORD. Then he wore a Linen undergarment, which reached from the loins
until his thighs; And beneath upon the hem of it thou shalt make
pomegranates of blue, and of purple, and of scarlet, round about the hem
thereof; and bells of gold between them round about: A golden bell and a
pomegranate, a golden bell and a pomegranate, upon the hem of the robe
round about. And it shall be upon Aaron to minister: and his sound shall
be heard when he goeth in unto the holy place before the LORD, and when
he cometh out, that he die not. Exodus
28:33-35.
Only the high priest had the
right to go to the Most Holy once a year and he would take with him
blood, which he sprinkled onto the mercy seat for the sake of the sins
of the nation of Israel. In this way God set and prescribed the high
priest to deliver the cleansing of the sins of the nation of Israel. The
high priest went to the Most Holy and took the blood of the offering
animal to the Most Holy and sprinkled blood onto the mercy seat and
before it, and in this way he delivered atonement to the nation of
Israel. However, the high priest had also to reconcile his own sins,
because he was also a sinner.
The Messiah Yeshua is
the High Priest of the New Covenant and He is sinless and He has
sacrificed Himself and shed His blood with one offering for the sake of
all sins.
The Lord Messiah Yeshua
carries on His shoulders and in His heart the people of the New Covenant
congregation through His eternal and perfect love. As with the help of
the gold bells, the Old Covenant congregation heard where high priest
moved; so the nation of the New Covenant knows the moving of the Lord
through the Holy Spirit ( Yeshua is the High Priest of the New
Covenant).
