Exodus 39 - The Priests are Bedecked with Jewels

image source

Robes were created for the priests of the finest red, blue and purple wool for when they were in the Holy place. God designed every inch of these garments including gold strips which were hammered and cut into thin strips and then worked into the linen and wool. Fine embroidery was done and precious gems were mounted in four rows across the breast plates.

A basin was placed between the Tent and the altar where Aaron and his sons washed their hands and feet before entering into the Holy place.

A cloud covered the Tent and the Lord's presence within it caused a dazzling light. The Israelites could witness the glowing presence of God within the cloud during the day and a burning fire above it during the evenings.

Thank you so much for visiting me today. May God richly bless you and the reading of His word.
