In this episode, we follow construction of the sanctuary, which was sometimes called the tent of meeting, looking at the dimensions, materials used and symbolism contained therin.

Overview of the Sanctuary
We actually start looking at the sanctuary from the outside in, so we begin in the camp. The camp was the area surrounding the tent where the people of Israel lived and how they went to the sanctuary.
We read Exodus 27:9-19 to hear what God had to say about dimensions, materials, metals and construction.
We start in the camp outside of the actual sanctuary, what the camp was, who was in the camp and what it looked like as the Israelites traveled to the sanctuary for their daily services.
Damon discussed the 12 tribes of Israel and who was in them (based on the 12 sons of Jacob) as well as the significance of the number 12 and how Revelation mirrors Exodus at times.
We discuss the daily service at the sanctuary to bring a sacrifice for their sins and the symbolism of walking 2/3 of a mile to the sanctuary carrying the unblemished lamb to atone for their sins.
The walk to the sanctuary was clean with no distractions, like the wilderness after the Exodus from Egypt. The camp was setup as a miniature desert/wilderness to give the Israelites the time to reflect on their sins and come to repentance. They were met at the gate by the High Priest to take them into the sanctuary for atonement. This was symbolic of the modern time Christians are to have with Jesus, our High Priest, who we walk with daily.
We talk about how everything in the sanctuary points to Jesus in reality and symbolism.
We discussed the acacia wood that made up the posts that held the exterior linen, which created the perimeter of the sanctuary. We look at what that represented not only as the Israelites walked to the sanctuary but what it symbolized in terms of the Gospel and the righteousness of Jesus that covers our sins before God.
We also talk about the significance of entering through the East Gate as well as the materials of the thread used to create the screen or veil that covered the gate which also had symbolism pointing toward Jesus.
Damon talks about how language in the New Testament
