Description
God gave the Israelites the tabernacle as a place to worship him, but also as a wonderful picture that points to Jesus.
Although God had rescued his people out of slavery in Egypt, they rebelled against him and worshiped other gods. So God gave Moses rules to teach his people how to love God and each other. He also gave him instructions for how to build a movable temple for the Lord.
This tent provided a way for the Israelites to serve and worship God his way, in reverence and awe. But the tabernacle was also full of symbols that pointed to Jesus - when God became a man and lived among his people.
Danika Cooley, homeschool mom and curriculum developer, shows how understanding this place of worship is as important for Christians today as it was for the Israelites.
The Who, What, Why series explores the lives, concepts, and movements that have shaped the lives of God's people throughout history. Featuring an engaging narrative, beautiful illustrations and a timeline of key dates, this series introduces young people to big topics through simple questions.

This is what I love - Danika does not just present isolated Bible stories but shows how the Old Testament points to Christ. If you want a Gospel-centered resource, you will love these books.
