Study Note: - The placing of the Tabernacle

Judah etc. on the East side, Reuben etc. on the South side, Ephraim etc. on the West side and Dan etc. on the North side.

Thus every tent of the families of Israel was pitched facing the Tabernacle, showing in the type that the Tabernacle, (for us the Local Church), was central to every aspect of their lives.

The east side:- The place of the sun-rising represents those who live in the daily expectation of the coming of the Lord Jesus first for His Church then as the "Sun of Righteousness" to "arise with healing in His wings" Mal. 4; 2, Heb. 9; 28.

From the North comes Gold. Job 37; 22, (J. N. D.) That is the acceptance of trouble, and learning from it makes us spiritually rich. Job said "I know that when I am tried I shall come forth as GOLD", (Job 23:10.)

Around the Tabernacle: - Levites were to camp, and they were a safeguard to the rest of the tribes, to protect them from the wrath of a holy God. Because of their Godly lives and ministry, because they lived close to God, and especially because of their intercession, they were a protection and a blessing.

They represent those who are spiritual, Gal. 6:1, such as Epaphroditus Philippians 3;25-29, Epaphras Col.4;12, those of the house of Chloe 1Cor.1;11, Stephanas 1Cor. 16;15, whom we may take as examples. Such are a protection and a blessing to the less spiritual members of the local Church.

Imagery: - TV My Shepherded

The TV is my shepherded,

Do nothing for His names sake,

Because it requiretth all

My spare time.

The things of the world

Study of Gods word.

They comfort me.

Yea, though I live to be 100,

As long as it works.

Surely
no good thing,

Will come of my life.

Perspective: - Enjoy Fellowship

One of the distinctive features of Christianity is the importance we give for fellowship. The entire Christian life is a life of relationship. Jn.17:5. Relationship with Christ brings us in to fellowship with the Father and the Holy Spirit and that in turn in to our
fellowship with one another. 1Jn. 1:3. Both the relationship goes hand in hand. We can not have one with out the other. John says, But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another. 1Jn.1:7a. Thats why backslidden Hebrew believers forsook fellowship. Heb.10:25

He has just reached the city from Damascus where he met with the Lord. The believers of Jerusalem knew about him only as a Jewish fanatic who persecuted Christians. Luke writes that, He tried to join the disciples; but they were all afraid of him, and did not believe that he was a disciple. Act.9:26

We can well imagine Saul going to each house and how the scared believers closed doors for him. Nevertheless he was not offended by their unwillingness to accept him. He tried, went more houses, and made every effort to have fellowship with the saints. Do we have this zeal for finding a co-believer to have fellowship with them?

Through out his life Saul/Paul had this passion. To Romans he wrote later, For I long to see you, that I may impart to you, some spiritual gift, so that you may be established-that is, that I may be encouraged together with you by the mutual faith both of you and me. Rom.1:11, 12.

Notice the result of fellowship Paul refers here: mutual edification and encouragement. Right fellowship is a blessing for each other. No wonder the Hebrew writes exhorts, Not to forsake the assembling of ourselves together. Heb.10:25. There is growth, joy and life. Is it true in our fellowship?
