Exodus 25-27 God gives specific instructions for the construction of the ark and tabernacle. The detail given is nothing short of amazing! The finished product must have been something to behold. The value, just from a human perspective, was enormous. Add to the gold and finery the spiritual significance, and you end up with something that is truly priceless!
Isn't that the whole idea? What God designs cannot be bought. His creations exceed the worth of this world. Consider this concept as He says that our bodies are a living temple; that He dwells within each of us! As spectacular as the tabernacle and ark of the covenant were -- as priceless as they were -- they pale in significance to that which has been designed and completed through the work of our Savior at Calvary! As precious as gold is, it becomes as worthless as the dust beneath our feet in comparison to the cleansing blood of Jesus!
