Embracing Heaven’s gift of new garments: New Covenant and a fresh start (Exodus 28; Hosea 14; Hebrews 4)

A richly textured, oil palette knife–style digital painting depicts the Mishkan (Tabernacle) in a desert setting, glowing with warm, golden light. In the foreground are shimmering priestly garments with a jeweled breastplate, alongside symbolic spiritual armor including a helmet and shield. To the right, a radiant seven-branched menorah casts illuminating light across the scene. Flowing Hebrew script reading קֹדֶשׁ לַיהוָה (“Holy to the Lord”) appears across the upper portion of the image and is echoed on the turban crown. Dynamic, vivid brushstrokes evoke awe, holiness, and spiritual renewal. A text overlay in the lower left corner reads, “Embracing Heaven’s gift of new garments: New Covenant and a fresh start (Exodus 28; Hosea 14; Hebrews 4).” A Hallel.info watermark appears in the lower right corner.
