The table was made of acacia wood and overlaid with pure gold, symbolizing purity and divinity. It held the bread of the Presence, representing God's provision and fellowship with His people. The act of placing the table signifies obedience to God's specific instructions given in <a href="/exodus/25-23.htm">Exodus 25:23-30</a>.<p><b>in the Tent of Meeting</b><br>The Tent of Meeting, also known as the Tabernacle, was the portable earthly dwelling place of God among the Israelites. It served as the central place of worship and sacrifice during their wilderness journey. The Tent of Meeting was where Moses would meet with God, and it symbolized God's presence with His people. This setting underscores the importance of worship and communion with God.<p><b>on the north side of the tabernacle</b><br>The specific placement of the table on the north side indicates the order and precision in the worship practices of Israel. The north side was opposite the lampstand, which was on the south side, creating a balanced and symmetrical layout within the Holy Place. This arrangement reflects the orderliness of God's creation and His instructions for worship.<p><b>outside the veil</b><br>The veil separated the Holy Place from the Most Holy Place, where the Ark of the Covenant was kept. The veil represented the barrier between God and humanity due to sin. Only the high priest could enter the Most Holy Place once a year on the Day of Atonement. The positioning of the table outside the veil signifies that while God's presence was near, full access was not yet available. This foreshadows the tearing of the veil at Christ's crucifixion (<a href="/matthew/27-51.htm">Matthew 27:51</a>), symbolizing the new access to God through Jesus, our High Priest.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/m/moses.htm">Moses</a></b><br>The leader of the Israelites, chosen by God to deliver His people from Egypt and to guide them through the wilderness.
