The tent of the god or god’s was, as with mountains or lush gardens, the place where heaven and earth intersected and where divine decrees were issued. This was a common cultural idea, perhaps akin to how many people think of the church – church is a place you’d expect to meet God or where God can be found.
Moses was told to construct the tabernacle and its equipment according to the pattern shown to him by Yahweh on the holy mountain. (Exodus 25: 9, 40; 26: 30). The implication is that the tabernacle on earth was to be a copy of the heavenly tent and in accord with the religious principle of “ as in heaven, so on earth.” Ref: Michael Heiser’s book THE UNSEEN REALM.
Now listen to the beauty of this: The heavenly tent prototype was the heavens themselves, as Isaiah 40:22 tells us. ( ” It is he who sits above the circle of the earth and its inhabitants are like grasshoppers; who stretches out the heavens like a curtain, and spreads them like a tent to dwell in” [ ESV]. This kind of language is also why the earth is referred to as God’s footstool (Isaiah 66:1). Yahweh sits above the circle of the earth, in his heavenly tent, on his throne above the waters which are above “the firmament”, and rests his feet on the earth which is his footstool ( Job 9: 8 Psalm 104 :2) As Eden was the place where humanity experienced the presence of God, so too was the tabernacle. M. Heiser.
Comments: Friends and foes, let it be known that GOD (The one true God), whose sacred “once unspeakable name” of YHWH IS REAL. I want to ask a simple question, and think about it before you answer. What other literature from supposed other “gods” can claim things things that are said in the above scriptures? I would like to see the literature, but don’t bother because it doesn’t exist, only confusing variations, deceptions, and imitations. All mockery of God beware: Read Revelation 22:18 and Deuteronomy 4:2, GOD WILL NOT BE MOCKED. Frankie.
People: Are you not tired of this wretched world? Are you not tired of the politicians? Are you not tired of “ The Destroyers,” like Putin, Xi, Kim Jung, Iran, Joe Biden, most of the Democrat party including some Republicans? … THE WOKE ZOMBIES OF THE WORLD? the climate change looney birds? GEORGE SOROS, Anthony ‘Falsey’ Fauci, Bill Gates, Al Gore, half wit AOC? Klaus Schwab and his WEF? HOLLYWOOD in general? just to name a few. Know this if you don’t know anything else, what you won’t hear on the news is this: All of this corruption of government and the global agenda is a platform for the soon coming Antichrist… also a period of time known as the Tribulation. Not that I’m any better than you, but I feel sorry for you if you are unaware. The tides of war and deception are coming. If you are not ready, you will be swept away, and you won’t know what hit you. There are only two sides to be on. One is God’s, and the other is Satans. Frankie The Earthman.
