The "five" refers to the number of bars used to support the frames of the tabernacle. The use of five bars on each side signifies stability and strength, ensuring the structure's integrity. Biblically, the number five often symbolizes grace, which can be seen in the context of God's provision for His people. The tabernacle itself is a type of Christ, representing God's dwelling among His people, and the bars can be seen as a metaphor for the support and strength found in Christ.<p><b>and five for those on the rear side of the tabernacle</b><br>The rear side of the tabernacle, also supported by five bars, highlights the uniformity and balance in God's design. This rear section faced the west, which in biblical symbolism often represents the end or completion. The consistent use of five bars on all sides emphasizes the completeness and perfection of God's plan. The tabernacle's structure, including its rear, points to the completeness of Christ's work and His role as the ultimate mediator between God and humanity.<p><b>to the west</b><br>The orientation of the tabernacle is significant. The entrance faced east, meaning the rear faced west. In ancient Near Eastern culture, east was often associated with the direction of the rising sun and new beginnings, while west symbolized the setting sun and the end of a journey. This orientation can be seen as a reflection of the journey of faith, beginning with new life in God and moving towards the fulfillment of His promises. The westward orientation of the tabernacle's rear may also symbolize the hope of eternal rest and completion in God's presence, as seen in the eschatological promises throughout Scripture.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/m/moses.htm">Moses</a></b><br>The leader of the Israelites, who received the instructions for the tabernacle from God on Mount Sinai.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_tabernacle.htm">The Tabernacle</a></b><br>A portable sanctuary used by the Israelites as a place of worship during their journey through the wilderness.<br><br>3. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_west_side_of_the_tabernacle.htm">The West Side of the Tabernacle</a></b><br>The specific location mentioned in this verse, indicating the rear of the tabernacle structure.<br><br>4. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_israelites.htm">The Israelites</a></b><br>The people of God who were commanded to construct the tabernacle according to the divine specifications given to Moses.<br><br>5. <b><a href="/topical/m/mount_sinai.htm">Mount Sinai</a></b><br>The place where Moses received the instructions for the tabernacle and the Ten Commandments from God.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><b><a href="/topical/o/obedience_to_god's_instructions.htm">Obedience to God's Instructions</a></b><br>The detailed instructions for the tabernacle highlight the importance of obedience to God's commands.
