Listen "Exodus 25: ☧ w/ His Guards to Descend on Ark, Table, Lamp"
Episode Synopsis
Rev. Scott Adle, pastor of Good Shepherd Lutheran Church in Collinsville, Illinois, joins host Rev. AJ Espinosa to study Exodus 25.
“The cherubim shall spread out their wings above, overshadowing the mercy seat with their wings, their faces one to another; [...] There I will meet with you.” This is what the Garden of Eden looked like. Far from old-school IKEA directions, Exodus 25 actually describes in detail the physical location where God became physically manifest in the heart of the Israelite camp. Contributions and construction were not legalistically compelled, but freely given as a gracious picture of heaven—of Jesus Christ Himself. He is the true temple who makes the church the true Israel. Before Him, even angels bow and hide their faces.
