The tabernacle, also known as the Tent of Meeting, served as the central place of worship and the dwelling place of God's presence among the Israelites during their wilderness journey. The completion signifies obedience and dedication to God's commands, reflecting the importance of following divine instructions precisely. The tabernacle's construction involved skilled artisans and the use of precious materials, symbolizing the value and holiness of God's dwelling place. This completion also prefigures the ultimate dwelling of God with humanity through Jesus Christ, who "tabernacled" among us (<a href="/john/1-14.htm">John 1:14</a>).<p><b>The Israelites did everything just as the LORD had commanded Moses.</b><br>This phrase emphasizes the faithfulness and obedience of the Israelites in executing God's commands. It highlights the importance of adhering to divine instructions without deviation, a theme prevalent throughout the Pentateuch. The Israelites' obedience here contrasts with their earlier disobedience, such as the incident with the golden calf (Exodus 32). This obedience is a model for believers, illustrating the blessings and presence of God that follow when His people live according to His will. The phrase also underscores Moses' role as a faithful mediator between God and the people, a type of Christ who perfectly fulfills the Father's will (<a href="/john/6-38.htm">John 6:38</a>).<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_israelites.htm">The Israelites</a></b><br>The people of God who were delivered from Egypt and tasked with constructing the tabernacle according to God's instructions.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/m/moses.htm">Moses</a></b><br>The leader of the Israelites who received the commandments and instructions from God on Mount Sinai.<br><br>3. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_tabernacle.htm">The Tabernacle</a></b><br>The portable sanctuary where God would dwell among His people, serving as a central place of worship and sacrifice.<br><br>4. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_tent_of_meeting.htm">The Tent of Meeting</a></b><br>Another term for the tabernacle, emphasizing its role as a place where God would meet with Moses and the Israelites.<br><br>5. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_lord.htm">The LORD (Yahweh)</a></b><br>The covenant name of God, who provided the detailed instructions for the construction of the tabernacle.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><b><a href="/topical/o/obedience_to_god's_commands.htm">Obedience to God's Commands</a></b><br>The Israelites' completion of the tabernacle as commanded by God underscores the importance of obedience in our walk with God.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/g/god's_presence_among_his_people.htm">God's Presence Among His People</a></b><br>The tabernacle symbolizes God's desire to dwell among His people, reminding us of His continual presence in our lives.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/a/attention_to_detail_in_worship.htm">Attention to Detail in Worship</a></b><br>The meticulous construction of the tabernacle teaches us to approach worship with reverence and care, honoring God with our best.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/c/community_in_action.htm">Community in Action</a></b><br>The collective effort of the Israelites in building the tabernacle highlights the importance of community and cooperation in fulfilling God's purposes.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/f/foreshadowing_of_christ.htm">Foreshadowing of Christ</a></b><br>The tabernacle points to Jesus, who is the ultimate fulfillment of God's presence with humanity, encouraging us to seek a deeper relationship with Him.<div class="vheading2">Lists and Questions</div><a href="/top10/lessons_from_exodus_39.htm">Top 10 Lessons from Exodus 39</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/extrabiblical_proof_of_tabernacle's_build.htm">Exodus 39:32-43: Is there any extrabiblical evidence supporting the construction of such an elaborate tabernacle and its components as described?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/how_did_they_get_goat_hair_for_curtains.htm">Exodus 26:7-8 - Given their nomadic desert life, where would they obtain enough goat hair and weaving resources for eleven large curtains?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/evidence_for_exodus_33_7-11_tent.htm">Is there any archaeological or historical evidence for a distinct 'Tent of Meeting' as described in Exodus 33:7-11, given that later passages describe the Tabernacle differently?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/purpose_of_the_bronze_laver.htm">What was the purpose of the bronze laver?</a><a name="commentary" id="commentary"></a><div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/pulpit/exodus/39.htm">Pulpit Commentary</a></div><span class="cmt_sub_title">Verses 32-43.</span> - Everything was brought to Moses for his approval - not perhaps all things at once, but each as it was finished - and was judged by him "according to the pattern which he had seen upon the mount' (<a href="/exodus/25-40.htm">Exodus 25:40</a>; <a href="/exodus/26-30.htm">Exodus 26:30</a>, etc.)..
