Concise Complete
The priests' garments. (1-31) The tabernacle completed.
(32-43)
Verses 1-31 The
priests' garments were rich and splendid. The church in its infancy was thus
taught by shadows of good things to come; but the substance is Christ, and the
grace of the gospel. Christ is our great High Priest. When he undertook the work
of our redemption, he put on the clothes of service, he arrayed himself with the
gifts and graces of the Spirit, girded himself with resolution to go through the
undertaking, took charge of all God's spiritual Israel, laid them near his
heart, engraved them on the palms of his hands, and presented them to his
Father. And he crowned himself with holiness to the Lord, consecrating his whole
undertaking to the honour of his Father's holiness. True believers are spiritual
priests. The clean linen with which all their clothes of service must be made,
is the righteousness of saints,
revelation 19:8.
Verses 32-43 The
tabernacle was a type or emblem of Jesus Christ. As the Most High dwelt visibly
within the sanctuary, even on the ark, so did he reside in the human nature and
tabernacle of his dear Son; in Christ dwelt all the fulness of the Godhead
bodily,
colossians
2:9. The tabernacle was a symbol of every real Christian. In the soul of
every true follower of the Saviour the Father dwells, the object of his worship,
and the author of his blessings. The tabernacle also typified the church of the
Redeemer. The meanest and the mightiest are alike dear to the Father's love,
freely exercised through faith in Christ. The tabernacle was a type and emblem
of the heavenly temple, Re 21:3. What, then, will be the splendour of His
appearance, when the cloud shall be withdrawn, and his faithful worshippers
shall see him as he is!
