Glory of the LORD – Filled the Tabernacle

“Then the cloud covered the tent of meeting,

and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle.

Moses was not able to enter the tent of meeting because the cloud had settled on it,

and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle”.

-Moses (Exodus 40:34-35)

 

Context

God gave specific instructions about the construction, contents, and anointing of the tent of meeting – where God would dwell among the sons of Israel (Exodus 25:8). When Moses finished setting up the tent according to all of the instructions, then the cloud covered the tent of meeting and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle.

 

Thoughts

I think it had to be a heart pounding experience know and seeing that God was right there in the tent of meeting, dwelling among them. Do you think God dwells among us today?
