Temple of God and its symbolic and spiritual meanings

[visionary]

There will be a whole lot of shaking going on, when the Lord comes to your mind in a real tangible way, all doors will be opened in your mind, there will be nothing secret, everything will be exposed, and all the lies that have held your mind locked in lies will be loosed, so that you can believe the truth in all its majesty and beauty of Holiness. Revelations of truth, coming to stark clarity before your understanding, so that you may truly repent forever of believing all the lies you have been told. It will be easier to handle if you go to the Lord and learn now, than it will be, to be overwhelmed in that day with the realities of the truth will come tearing down like the curtain in the Temple of God, the moment Yeshua died. For to deny what is happening that day, to deny the truth that has comes clearly to your mind, for your salvation, will be to turn away from the last chance of salvation.

Acts 16:26 And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken: and immediately all the doors were opened, and every one's bands were loosed.

With that in mind, lets move forward into the Temple of God. Here is a quick review of what to look forward to when you enter the two rooms in the Temple of God

Hebrews 9:2-4 For there was a tabernacle made; the first, wherein was the candlestick, and the table, and the shewbread; which is called the sanctuary.3 And after the second veil, the tabernacle which is called the Holiest of all; 4 Which had the golden censer, and the ark of the covenant overlaid round about with gold, wherein was the golden pot that had manna, and Aaron's rod that budded, and the tables of the covenant;

As we enter into the Holy Place where God dwells with His Only Begotten Son, and the Holy Spirit we will notice in the first compartment or the Holy place three pieces of furniture, representative of what is available to help you learn and partake in the workings of your salvation. As priests, your task is to be a living example, a witness before the world, and offering to the world the opportunity to partake also of the salvation offered. This is where you, as a priest for our Lord and Savior are to pray, go before God for answers, direction, and guidance in spiritual matters. Each article in the Holy Place are for daily ministering done in the light of the Holy Spirit.

What do you make of the two Cherubims on the Mercy seat?


Heb 9:5 "And over it the cherubims of glory shadowing the mercyseat; of which we cannot now speak particularly"

Somebody connected them with the Cherubims that guarded the tree of life in garden of Eden. He made a connection again between the tree of life in the garden of Eden and the Ten commandments that are in the ark of the covenant in the Holy of Holies. I thought that was interesting! And I hear the same words that were used for Adam for keeping the garden where the same ones used for the priests and the keeping of the utensils of the Temple!

The words translated "tend and keep" in Genesis might better be rendered "worship and guard" - they're the same words used in Leviticus when the priests duties are laid out!

Also

That the verse in John 1:1 in the beginning was the word…. that the Hebrew meaning for that "word" apparently can be translated Holy of Holies or inner shine. Therefore in the beginning was the Holy of Holies……

Very interesting stuff indeed!

You have just outlined our duty as priests....as per the Priest's duties in the Holy Place of the Temple :amen:

1Pe 2:9
But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light

Which is why i beleive the Temple holds major doctrines!

[visionary]

The Lord keeps enlarging the picture, until we get the picture and put it in our hearts.

I like what you found so far, it fits, and as we know the harmony of the Word of God is like a three part harmony, they may sound like different tunes by themselves but to gether they make beautiful music unto the Lord.

...and like the two witnesses they are the key that unlocks the little book, so that we may prophecy again.

[Sephania]

Visionary why do you keep saying "comes to our minds" This reminds me of the Omega Code, Scary. :eek:

[visionary]

comes to our minds.....

In studying the ultimate purpose of God wanting to indwell in the Temple (us) we would have to experience Him coming to our minds in very real way.

We are to prepare our hearts and minds to meet with in a personal way the almighty God.

Isaiah 26:3 Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee

It is in the last days of earth’s history that the concept that the Lord has wanted perfected in the minds of men, is that it is possible to obey His laws perfectly, through the power of the Holy Spirit, in the example of our Lord Yeshua.

This can only be done with the constant dwelling on the Holy Spirit, which has to be invited in to stay.

Romans 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

1 Corinthians 1:10 Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Yeshua Messiah, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.

Philippians 3:15 Let us therefore, as many as be perfect, be thus minded: and if in any thing ye be otherwise minded, God shall reveal even this unto you

Since we have clouded and befuddled minds full of this worldly religion, our minds relates everything it understand to what we already believes or have yet to be convicted of. If the conviction goes against what we believe, it takes longer to convert, if conversion will occur. This is where controversy lies. If you have ever found yourself without the peace that passes all understanding, then prayerfully re-examine that which you believe. The Holy Spirit is pressing an important conviction of truth upon you for your salvation. The controversy will end when you stop wrestling with the Word of God to fit what you have already been told. The controversy will end when you allow God to lead you into all truth. Unless you are lucky to be like Paul with a Damascus experience, it will be extremely hard for you to believe that you are fighting God's work. God wants there to be no question in anyone’s mind when he returns. He is calling every one to come talk with Him now.

Revelation 3:20 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.

Then there is a fulfillment of the Day of Atonement, Face to Face experience, that I believe is like God opening everyone's mind in one day, for some it will be like Yeshua coming in and chasing out all the buyers and sellers to create a house of prayer. For others it will be a renwing and transforming experience.

When the high priest stood before God on the Day of Atonement, he was said to be "face to face" with God. Because of this, the Day of Atonement became known by the phrase "face to face." "Face to face" is a terminology used in:

1 Corinthians 13:9-12 For we know in part; and we prophesy in part. But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away. When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things. For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.

[Sephania]

So when Sha'ul said in a twinkling, we shall all be changed, he didn't mean our bodies but minds? The corruptable putting on the incorrubtable is not speaking of the flesh.

Following that vein then do you think that Yeshua came back in a resurrected immortal bodies with the wounds or did he just come into their minds and was revealed there?

Because Sha'ul said we would be like him.

[visionary]

Many people talk of the two comings of Yeshua, and I believe it is because of the confusion between Him coming to the mind and then the literal return. The face to face of Yeshua coming to the mind in a mighty way is at the Day of Atonement (reality) prophectic fulfillment, which changes everyone, for some it will be the Judgment Day, for others who have gone over their book of life with Yeshua during the Feast of Trumpets (good thing we keep them) will find the Day of Atonement the uniting, as a bride with the groom in matrimony.

It is interesting that they are told to go buy from them that sell at this time. Does this not place it at the time when you can not go out and buy or sell unless you have the mark?...."And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut," (Luke 5 parable)

Now the Bride may present herself spotless before the groom.

1 John 4:17 Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world.

The coming of Messiah as our high priest to the most holy place, for the cleansing of the sanctuary, brought to view in Daniel 8:14; the coming of the Son of man to the Ancient of Days, as presented in Daniel 7:13; and the coming of the Lord to His temple, foretold by Malachi, are descriptions of the same event; and this is also represented by the coming of the bridegroom to the marriage, described by Messiah in the parable of the ten virgins, of Matthew 25.

When Yeshua returns at the second coming, then we will be changed physically.

So the way that I see it at this time, is that first our minds are changed on the Day of Atonement fulfillment (sealed Holy forever), and we will be physically changed at His coming.

[queenm04]

The coming of Messiah as our high priest to the most holy place, for the cleansing of the sanctuary, brought to view in Daniel 8:14; the coming of the Son of man to the Ancient of Days, as presented in Daniel 7:13; and the coming of the Lord to His temple, foretold by Malachi, are descriptions of the same event; and this is also represented by the coming of the bridegroom to the marriage, described by Messiah in the parable of the ten virgins, of Matthew 25.
Thanks for sharing.

Two weeks back got a wild thought that a virtuous woman could mean the bride to meet Him when He comes!

Pr 31:18
She perceiveth that her merchandise is good: her candle goeth not out by night.
And connected this particular Scripture with the five virgins who always had the oil ready.

Mt 25:2
And five of them were wise, and five were foolish.
Mt 25:3
They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them:
Mt 25:4
But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.
Mt 25:5While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.
Mt 25:6
And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.
Mt 25:7
Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.
Mt 25:8
And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out.

And the church is also referred to as a woman, the bride. JUST A THOUGHT! But I think it’s worth considering! Oh that i may be like a virtouos woman also in the things of the Spirit! Be ever ready to meet the bridegroom:crossrc:

[Shimshon]

This "woman" would be well known even before Yeshua's life by her hebrew name of the "Daughter of Tziyon"

[queenm04]

This "woman" would be well known even before Yeshua's life by her hebrew name of the "Daughter of Tziyon"
Israel, converted Israel is His bride. The Church, converted gentiles who believe in His Son, and obey His commandments is the bride. Also thinking of the woman praised / described in Songs of songs, Think this is a thread in itself!

[queenm04]

I read that the same words that the Almighty used to tell the priests to "guard and keep" the tabernacle items (when translated in... will check) were the same words that He used when giving Adam the instructions for the garden.
The Almighty having written the Ten commandments by the finger of His hand they must have been so valuable!
The Cherubims had were on top of the Ark of the covenant, which had the Ten commandments, Aaron’s rod that budded, and the Golden pot of Manna
The Ark of the Covenant, having amongst others the laws of the Almighty was not put in the Outer court, nor the Holy Place but was put in the Holy of Holies!
Somebody mentions that the Ten Commandments are a contract between God and His people,



Could the Ten Commandments be God’s identity?

[queenm04]

In the past week one pastor told me King David was the only king that made mention of Tabernacle items when He prayed. And He was called the man after the Almighty’s own heart! Two more people mentioned these on separate occasions, that King David was called a man after God's own heart. I thought this was interesting!
When leafed through the Bible I came across Psalms 89, verse 14 says

14
Justice and judgement are the habitation of thy throne: mercy and truth shall go before thy face
Ps 85:10 says Mercy and truth are met together; righteousness and peace have kissed each other.

I read somewhere that Psalms 85:10 refers to the mercy seat in the Holy of Holies.

Is God’s throne made up of Mercy and Truth?

Isa 16:5

And in mercy shall the throne be established: and he shall sit upon it in truth in the tabernacle of David, judging, and seeking judgement, and hasting righteousness.

If so,

If so can we say His son demonstrated Mercy on the cross! While He also said that He was they way the truth and the life? Which makes mercy and truth?

John 14:6

Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

When discussing all this with a friend yesterday I remembered a pastor visited me one Sabbath morning, and said this out of nowhere. He said that he got a great revelation, and read Hosea 4:1 and Hosea 4:6

Ho 4:1

Hear the word of the LORD, ye children of Israel: for the LORD hath a controversy with the inhabitants of the land, because there is no truth, nor mercy, nor knowledge of God in the land.

And said that here a controversy means a serious case! The Almighty had a serious case against His people, that no truth no mercy nor knowledge was found in them.

Ho 4:6
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.
And he said the knowledge of the Almighty produces mercy and truth out of a person. And thought that was amazing exposition!

From all this came the Name of Jesus Christ and the Kingdom of God. That the kingdom of God is righteousness, joy, and peace.

Ro 14:17
For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.

Eph 1:20
Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places,
Eph 1:21

Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come:

That the Name of Jesus Christ is not only a Name! But also a powerful concept, (concept is an understatement) it means Saviour and Messiah! Which themselves are attributes of Mercy and Truth,

And The Name of Jesus, the bible says,

Eph 1:20
Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places,

Eph 1:21

Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come

If the throne of the Almighty is made up of Mercy and Truth, and justice and judgement what is far above His throne?

Can we safely say the Name of Jesus Christ and His deeds was God’s throne made audible?

Any more insights on thesd …? :prayer:

As we enter into the Holy Place where God dwells with His Only Begotten Son, and the Holy Spirit we will notice in the first compartment or the Holy place three pieces of furniture, representative of what is available to help you learn and partake in the workings of your salvation.

Ps 24:3
Who shall ascend into the hill of the LORD? or who shall stand in his holy place?

Ps 24:4
He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully. :prayer:

The lampstand (called the menorah or candlestick) was beaten and fashioned out of a single block of gold and had three branches coming out of each side of the central shaft. The seven lamps on top of the branches were likely round saucers with pinched rims which held the wick and olive oil.

Exodus 25:31-35 And thou shalt make a candlestick of pure gold: of beaten work shall the candlestick be made: his shaft, and his branches, his bowls, his knops, and his flowers, shall be of the same. 32 And six branches shall come out of the sides of it; three branches of the candlestick out of the one side, and three branches of the candlestick out of the other side: 33 Three bowls made like unto almonds, with a knop and a flower in one branch; and three bowls made like almonds in the other branch, with a knop and a flower: so in the six branches that come out of the candlestick. 34 And in the candlesticks shall be four bowls made like unto almonds, with their knops and their flowers.35 And there shall be a knop under two branches of the same, and a knop under two branches of the same, and a knop under two branches of the same, according to the six branches that proceed out of the candlestick.

All the furniture in the Holy place is made of wood overlaid with gold symbolizing that Yeshua came as flesh and is overlaid with the presence of God. The ornaments on the Golden Candlestick add up to 66 ornaments. One for each book of the Bible.

Rev 1:12-20 And I turned to see the voice that spake with me. And being turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks; 13 And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle. 14 His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire; 15 And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters. 16 And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth went a sharp two edged sword: and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength. 17 And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last: 18 I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death. 19 Write the things which thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter; 20 The mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches: and the seven candlesticks which thou sawest are the seven churches.

The light from the lampstand is the seven spirits of the Holy Spirit and the angels which have brought the messages from heaven to earth. The enlightenment that comes to our minds as we read the Scripture is by the power of the Holy Spirit.

[visionary]

Revelation 4:5 And out of the throne proceeded lightnings and thunderings and voices: and there were seven lamps of fire burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God.

Just as it was in the beginning, so it is in the beginning for everyone who has started on the spiritual journey, we are drawn to the light and we also see the light is good.

Genesis 1:2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. 4 And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.

It is the oil of anointing by the Holy Spirit upon our minds that keeps the lights of truth burning within our hearts and it will lead us into the Temple of God where our Ark of Salvation is found.

Psalm 43: O send out thy light and thy truth: let them lead me; let them bring me unto thy holy hill, and to thy tabernacles.

That is why it is so important to fill your mind with the Word of God daily, prayerfully asking for God’s Anointing Spirit upon it so that it may lighten up your life with the glory of Him who is able to save us from sin. We are the temple of God, and we are to be all that we find in the example and sample of the Holy and Most Holy Place that God has provided in His Word.

Matt 4:14 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, 15 The land of Zabulon, and the land of Nephthalim, by the way of the sea, beyond Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles; 16 The people which sat in darkness saw great light; and to them which sat in the region and shadow of death light is sprung up. 17 From that time Yeshua began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

Notice that the candle stick is over against the side of the table of shewbread. Light shining down upon the unleaven bread of the Word of God bringing light to all the bounty that the Lord has set before us.

Exodus 26:35 And thou shalt set the table without the veil, and the candlestick over against the table on the side of the tabernacle toward the south: and thou shalt put the table on the north side.

By the positioning of the candlestick by the table of shewbread, it is symbolic of importance of needing the light of the Holy Spirit to understand the Words of the Lord. As it was in Revelation, where we are to see Yeshua in the midst of the candlesticks, so are we to see the light upon the Word of God because it is Yeshua.

John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. 4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men. 5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not. 6 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. 7 The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe. 8 He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light. 9 That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world. 10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not. 12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: 13 Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. 14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

By the light of the Holy Spirit we come to know and understand the truth. The Spirit of God moves upon the word, and we see God's Holy, educating Spirit upon His Word which will lead you into all truth. A light, a new and precious light, shines forth from every page. For those that never had this experience though you may have been a student of the Word for many years, pray like never before that Yeshua will grant you this precious light that you may be born again of the spirit and see the light

John 3:1 There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews: 2 The same came to Yeshua by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him. 3 Yeshua answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. 4 Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born? 5 Yeshua answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. 6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. 7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again. 8 The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit. 9 Nicodemus answered and said unto him, How can these things be? 10 Yeshua answered and said unto him, Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things? 11 Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness. 12 If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things? 13 And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven. 14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: 15 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.

[visionary]

Truth is there revealed, and words and sentences are made bright and appropriate for the occasion, as the voice of God speaking to the soul. Pray for this experience, where God reveals to your heart the truth that you need to grow spiritually closer to Him who is able to save you in these last hours of earth’s history. Wake up, it is time to walk in the newness of the light that is given this world in these last hour’s of earthly history.

John 11:9 Yeshua answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world.10 But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth, because there is no light in him. 11 These things said he: and after that he saith unto them, Our friend Lazarus sleepeth; but I go, that I may awake him out of sleep.

We should not for one moment think that we have all the truth, that we understand the main pillars of our faith, and that we may rest on this knowledge to save us. The truth is an advancing truth, and we must walk in the increasing light. Especially is needed the knowledge of what God wants us to know to be prepared for the last hour’s of earth’s history. Pray that your conscience is laid like an open book before God, that He may do with it as He wills.

2 Corinthians 4:1 Therefore seeing we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we faint not; 2 But have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully; but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God. 3 But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: 4 In whom the God of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Messiah, who is the image of God, should shine unto them. 5 For we preach not ourselves, but Messiah Yeshua the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Yeshua' sake. 6 For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Yeshua Messiah.

God shines His light upon those Words that we need for our time. May God open up our minds to the original truth from the beginning. It has been known as the old truth from the old testament, but it will always be the eternal truth found in Yeshua in the light of the Holy Spirit that we are walk in.

1 Corinthians 4:5 Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord come, who both will bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and will make manifest the counsels of the hearts: and then shall every man have praise of God.

Everything has a time and place in prophecy and in its fulfillment, and we are to know not only where we are but what we are to be doing in this time so that we show not only God that we listened to His voice but also tell the world that it takes faith to walk the walk with God.

Ephesians 1:17 That the God of our Lord Yeshua Messiah, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him:18 The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,

It has been since the beginning and is the expectation of all for the great day when we manifest the character in Messiah in us. When that is achieved this old world is over.

Romans 8:19 For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.

So How can this be achieved? Did God lay out a plan for achieving the manifestation of the sons and daughter of God?

The table of shewbread was built of acacia wood and overlaid with solid gold, the table had a surface of 3 x 1.5 feet. Twelve fresh unleaven loaves of bread were placed on the table on before the Sabbath and were replaced by fresh unleaven bread before the following Sabbath. The high priestly line would eat the replaced bread.
1 Samuel 21:5 And David answered the priest, and said unto him, Of a truth women have been kept from us about these three days, since I came out, and the vessels of the young men are holy, and the bread is in a manner common, yea, though it were sanctified this day in the vessel. 6 So the priest gave him hallowed bread: for there was no bread there but the shewbread, that was taken from before the LORD, to put hot bread in the day when it was taken away.

[visionary]

David anointed to be King over the twelve tribes, with those that were with him, partook of this unleaven bread before the next battle because they were very hungry. There are twelve loaves of unleaven bread which was called shewbread (representing all twelve tribes) on the table. May all those who hunger and thirst after righteousness come in and partake of the Lord’s table.

There is also a description of the setting of the Table of Shewbread. It reminds me of the day when we will be invited to sit at the table all set up for the Wedding Feast.

Exodus 25:29 And thou shalt make the dishes thereof, and spoons thereof, and covers thereof, and bowls thereof, to cover withal: of pure gold shalt thou make them.30 And thou shalt set upon the table shewbread before me always.
Matthew 22:1-14 And Yeshua answered and spake unto them again by parables, and said, 2 The kingdom of heaven is like unto a certain king, which made a marriage for his son, 3 And sent forth his servants to call them that were bidden to the wedding: and they would not come. 4 Again, he sent forth other servants, saying, Tell them which are bidden, Behold, I have prepared my dinner: my oxen and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready: come unto the marriage. 5 But they made light of it, and went their ways, one to his farm, another to his merchandise: 6 And the remnant took his servants, and entreated them spitefully, and slew them. 7 But when the king heard thereof, he was wroth: and he sent forth his armies, and destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city. 8 Then saith he to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not worthy. 9 Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye shall find, bid to the marriage. 10 So those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was furnished with guests. 11 And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment: 12 And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless.13 Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness, there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.14 For many are called, but few are chosen.

David anointed to be King over the twelve tribes, with those that were with him, partook of this unleaven bread before the next battle because they were very hungry. There are twelve loaves of unleaven bread which was called shewbread (representing all twelve tribes) on the table. May all those who hunger and thirst after righteousness come in and partake of the Lord’s table.

And now we know that this unleaven bread represents Yeshua who is the Word of God, our manna, the living Word in the flesh. There is no leaven found in His Word. We also now see that the table preparation is to be made for the great wedding feast.

John 6:33,35,48,51 For the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world. 35 And Yeshua said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst. 48 I am that bread of life 51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.

Leaven in Scripture is a type of sin and what God is saying, "I not only want you out of Egypt, but I want Egypt out of you. It is not good enough to get you out of the world. I want the world out of you".
Matthew 16:11 How is it that ye do not understand that I spake it not to you concerning bread, that ye should beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees? 12 Then understood they how that he bade them not beware of the leaven of bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.

Luke 12:1 In the mean time, when there were gathered together an innumerable multitude of people, insomuch that they trode one upon another, he began to say unto his disciples first of all, Beware ye of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.

John 8:12 Then spake Yeshua again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life. 13 The Pharisees therefore said unto him, Thou bearest record of thyself; thy record is not true. 14 Yeshua answered and said unto them, Though I bear record of myself, yet my record is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I go; but ye cannot tell whence I come, and whither I go. 15 Ye judge after the flesh; I judge no man. 16 And yet if I judge, my judgment is true: for I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me. 17 It is also written in your law, that the testimony of two men is true. 18 I am one that bear witness of myself, and the Father that sent me beareth witness of me. 19 Then said they unto him, Where is thy Father? Yeshua answered, Ye neither know me, nor my Father: if ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also. 23 And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world. 32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
