This part of the Bible describes how the tabernacle was built and how God manifested His glory in it. The tabernacle was a place of worship, representing God’s presence among His people—just like the Garden of Eden originally did. The tabernacle’s construction reminds us that serving God involves effort. God provided wisdom and skills to workers like Bezalel and Oholiab, as well as the materials needed to glorify Him. The completion of the tabernacle and the arrival of God’s glory within it show His faithfulness when we follow His instructions. It also represents God’s desire to live among His people and foreshadows Jesus, who “tabernacled” among us (John 1:14). Today, we are God’s tabernacles when we worship Him with true devotion.
