The Tabernacle of Israel: Its Structure and Symbolism

by James Strong

Written by the famous developer of Strong's Exhaustive Concordance, this thorough, illustrated exposition is a classic work on the Tabernacle. What was the Tabernacle of Israel really like? What significance does it hold for Christians today? What can be discovered in the Ark and its cherubic figures? A detailed examination of the Tabernacle, this book explores its intricacies—a central part of Jewish life in the Old Testament. After a brief history, James Strong explains the various parts of the construction with all its accessories and their relationship. He concludes with an explanation of the aesthetic analogies and spiritual symbols which this elaborate and elegant structure portrays.

Excellent resource for studying the tabernacle and its symbolism. A little sluggish to simply read cover to cover, but rich with detail and illustrations. Great for research.
