Shabbat and the building of the Tabernacle (Exodus 35-37)

As we continue going through the book of Exodus, Richard Agee discusses the building of the tabernacle according to God’s instructions in Exodus 35-37. He emphasizes that the artisans were not to follow their own artistic interpretations, but precisely follow God’s commands as revealed to Moses.

Mr. Agee also notes the importance of precision in the tabernacle’s construction and furnishings. He discusses the significance of the showbread table and the bread placed on it. Agee also highlights the importance of purity in the garments for the high priest and references how our actions should reflect God. He puzzles over some of God’s actions in the Bible but emphasizes following God’s instructions. He conclude by stressing that we should understand biblical passages in context rather than relying on isolated phrases.
