I've been thinking about the Tabernacle and temples lately and doing some studying of them. Symbolically, what all things to you think that they are trying to communicate to us? Or in other words, what all things are pictured by these patterns?

Well the way I see it, in the beginning God walked and talked to man in the garden, after the fall there was only one place on earth where God would come to walk and talk to man, where he placed his name the temple mount. The ritual for a Preist to do to be clean and holy to go into the Holy of Holies is very complex. The new earth will be koshered and peopled by Holy People (Image of God) Re 21:22 But I saw no temple in it, for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple. Re 20:6 Blessed and holy is he who shares in the first resurrection! Over such the second death has no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and they shall reign with him a thousand years. So when we are in this promised land, we will be working as now as the governing body according to our good works here on this earth. IMO

IMO I tend to think that the temple mount is probably where the garden of Eden was. One of the things that I've been interested in lately regarding the tabernacle and temples is the measurements. I think that these measurements and patterns are prophetic and are in addition to other things, elaborate calendars. Have you ever looked into anything like that? I was reading a bit about Ezekiel's temple recently. Understanding Ezekiel's temple is supposed to make the House of Israel sorry and ashamed of all of their sins.

S As I read Ezekiel, I think Israel has taken up Christianity! When the Temple is seen God has gathered Israel out of the nations and given them a heart of flesh and the House of Israel shall know the Lord.

It appears that the House of Israel seeing and understanding the pattern or plan of the temple depends upon their behavior. It also seems that it is possible to understand the things contained therein way before the physical structure is built.
Ezekiel 40:2 In the visions of God brought he me into the land of Israel, and set me upon a very high mountain, by which was as the frame of a city on the south. 3And he brought me thither, and, behold, there was a man, whose appearance was like the appearance of brass, with a line of flax in his hand, and a measuring reed; and he stood in the gate. 4And the man said unto me, Son of man, behold with thine eyes, and hear with thine ears, and set thine heart upon all that I shall shew thee; for to the intent that I might shew them unto thee art thou brought hither: declare all that thou seest to the house of Israel.
Ezekiel 43:10 Thou son of man, shew the house to the house of Israel, that they may be ashamed of their iniquities: and let them measure the pattern.
11 And if they be ashamed of all that they have done, shew them the form of the house, and the fashion thereof, [/u]and the goings out thereof, and the comings in thereof, and all the forms thereof, and all the ordinances thereof, and all the forms thereof, and all the laws thereof: and write it in their sight, that they may keep the whole form thereof, and all the ordinances thereof, and do them.
12 This is the law of the house; Upon the top of the mountain the whole limit thereof round about shall be most holy. Behold, this is the law of the house.

Yes a repentant Israel, they will be ashamed. As I said I see Israel practicing Christianity (Behaviors like Christian behavior) before the prophesy of redemption. The visions of abominations. God's justus, God's dealing with Israel, gathering of the flock. 24 For I will take you from the nations, and gather you from all the countries, and bring you into your own land. 25 ΒΆ I will sprinkle clean water upon you, and you shall be clean from all your uncleannesses, and from all your idols I will cleanse you. 26 A new heart I will give you, and a new spirit I will put within you; and I will take out of your flesh the heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh. 27 And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes and be careful to observe my ordinances. 28 You shall dwell in the land which I gave to your fathers; and you shall be my people, and I will be your God. As Sha'ul says "All Israel shall be saved." The redemption. IMHO, the second comming. wherein we don't have to say "Know the Lord."
I may all wrong, but this is way I see it.

Thanks. Any thoughts on when the plan of the temple of Ezekiel will be seen or understood by the House of Israel? Also, what all messages do you think are being conveyed by the tabernacles and temples? In addition to other things, could they be clocks?
