What was the Ark Of The Covenant?

In Exodus 25, God told the Israelites to construct an 'ark,' and to place the ark in the Tabernacle.

But what was the purpose of the Ark?

And what was the significance of the 'mercy seat' that was on its top?

These questions will be the focus of today's study.

Questions That We'll Answer:
A) What do we know about the ark's construction and origins?
B) What was the ark's history as it was moved from place to place?
C) And finally, where is the ark today? Egypt? Ethiopia? Where?

Does God care how we worship Him? 

According to Exodus 28, the answer is YES.

In the last fifteen chapters of Exodus, we read about the construction of the Tabernacle. In these chapters, God gave the people some meticulous, specific details for the Tabernacle's components and design.

He also gave specific details for the clothing of the priests - including a phrase they were to wear on their foreheads, "HOLINESS TO THE LORD."

Questions That We'll Answer:
A) What was the significance of God meeting with His people in the tabernacle?
B) In what way did the Tabernacle reflect or anticipate Heaven?
C) How are you and I considered "priests" as NT believers?

The 'golden calf' was a bad idea.

Coming down the mountain, Moses heard the sound of fighting below.

But it wasn't fighting - it was a bunch of people praising an idol.

The people had broken God's law. Terribly. Egregiously.

And to demonstrate the severity of what they'd done, Moses shattered the 10 Commandments before their eyes.

Questions That We'll Answer:
A) What were the people thinking? And why did Aaron help?
B) Were the people trying to replace Jehovah altogether?
C) What was the immediate punishment that they received?

When Exodus began, Israel was laboring over a building project - Pharaoh's.

By the time Exodus ends, an entirely different building project is in view (God's).

In our final study of the Book of Exodus, we consider the Tabernacle.

The Tabernacle was a game changer for the people of Israel. With that said, what was this tent designed for? What was its purpose?

Other Questions That We'll Answer:
A) Why was God so specific about the Tabernacle's construction?
B) Why was Moses not permitted to enter into the Tabernacle (Ex. 40)?
C) Ultimately, what did the Tabernacle point toward?
