Exodus 40:1-38 - ”God’s Dwelling” - Brent Stephens / October 30, 2022

In the final chapter of Exodus, the Lord once again speaks to Moses, giving him the order to erect the tabernacle of the tent of meeting (Exodus 40:1-2). Keep in mind that the tabernacle has been an ongoing project for Moses. The items that fill the tabernacle have been described and constructed previously in the story (See section on Exodus 25-27, 30, and section on Exodus 31, 35-39 in this study guide). The Lord tells Moses to place these items in certain locations within the tabernacle. Upon completion, the Lord will fill the tabernacle with His presence and dwell with Israel.
