He will come in and go out, and find pasture.' (John 10:9) 'I am the gate whoever enters through me will be saved. This entrance itself is a picture of the Lord Jesus. There was only one way into the court and this was through an entrance on the east side.

The first thing that we see was that the tabernacle's outer court was enclosed by a curtain fence. All the other articles used in the service of the tabernacle, whatever their function, including all the tent pegs for it and those for the courtyard, are to be of bronze.' For the entrance to the courtyard, provide a curtain twenty cubits long, of blue, purple and scarlet yarn and finely twisted linen - the work of an embroiderer - with four posts and four bases. The north side shall also be a hundred cubits long and is to have curtains, with twenty posts and twenty bronze bases and with silver hooks and bands on the posts. The south side shall be a hundred cubits long and is to have curtains of finely twisted linen, with twenty posts and twenty bronze bases and with silver hooks and bands on the posts. Let's start with the gate.Įxodus 27:9-19 'Make a courtyard for the tabernacle. Specifically, we'll look at the gate to the tabernacle, the brazen altar and the bronze laver.

This study will focus on the first of these three areas - the outer court. They also point to three different dispensations within the plan of God. The three areas, as we saw (and you hopefully remember!) speak of different aspects of salvation in Christ. We saw in the previous study that the tabernacle was split into three different areas - the outer court, the holy place and the holy of holies.
