7You are to make curtains of goat hair for the tent over the tabernacle—eleven curtains in all. 8Each of the eleven curtains is to be the same size—thirty cubits long and four cubits wide.b
9Join five of the curtains into one set and the other six into another. Then fold the sixth curtain over double at the front of the tent.
10Make fifty loops along the edge of the end curtain in the first set, and fifty loops along the edge of the corresponding curtain in the second set. 11Make fifty bronze clasps and put them through the loops to join the tent together as a unit.
12As for the overlap that remains of the tent curtains, the half curtain that is left over shall hang down over the back of the tabernacle. 13And the tent curtains will be a cubitc longer on either side, and the excess will hang over the sides of the tabernacle to cover it.
14Also make a covering for the tent out of ram skins dyed red, and over that a covering of fine leather.
“Came from long-haired goats and most likely was black in color. It was a coarse material that often was used to weave tents. Felt would be a modern equivalent.” (Kaiser)
“Skins that had all the wool removed and then were dyed red; it was like our morocco leather.” (Kaiser)
The inside of the Tabernacle was like heaven!
And was obscured from all except those who entered through the doorway, curtains.
In the same way heaven will be obscured from all those who reject Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. They will be on the outside, knocking, Lord let us in!
Matthew 7:23 Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you workers of lawlessness!’
Will you see the inside of heaven?
Blessings, David
