Nemo (nemoslibrary) | 1505 comments The Tabernacle is Christ

174 ... This tabernacle would be Christ who is the power and the wisdom of God, who in his own nature was not made with hands, yet capable of being made when it became necessary for this tabernacle to be erected among us. Thus, the same tabernacle is in a way both unfashioned and fashioned, uncreated in preexistence but created in having received this material composition.
175. What we say is of course not obscure to those who have accurately received the mystery of our faith. For there is one thing out of all others which both existed before the ages and came into being at the end of the ages. ... This one is the Only Begotten God, who encompasses everything in himself but who also pitched his own tabernacle among us.
