Photos by mwk: on the map, in Google Earth (KML)

Hi, I'm doing a research for a Christian exhibition in Hong Kong and looking for photos of the Tabernacle replica. Your photo is great and I'm wondering if I can use it for display in the exhibition. Please feel free to contact me at elimyan@gmail.com Thanks a lot!

Regards, Elim

IT'S A VERY ICE PLACE

This has a divine look, very prime... Nice.

The lake and sun very nice.Thanks..

explendid view,just nice

[Ark of the Convenant] The ark of the convenant is topped by two cherubim whose wings touch. The gold-covered box contains replicas of the Ten Commandments, a plate of manna and Aaron’s blossomed staff. It is not known what exactly manna is, so coriander seeds were put in a container as Exodus 16:31 describes the miraculous food as „white, like coriander seeds“.

[In the Holy of Holies] A veil divides the Holliness and the Holy of Holies. In the past (also in Temple Period I and II) the Holy of Holies was entered only on the Day of Atonement and solely by the High Priest. It holds the Ark of the Covenant. - As Jesus died at the cross, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom (Matthew 27:51). Wasn’t it a sign of God’s pain that his son was killed?

[God’s desert dwelling] Timna Park, five kilometeres from Yotvata, where the Israelites camped. This detailed replica of Israel’s ancient tabernacle in its native surrondings brings to life God’s will to dwell among his people. The tabernacle was the place where the people experienced God’s presence. Since the Israelites broke camp 42 times in their 40 years of wandering, the Tabernacle’s long wall panels are equipped with bars and rings to make for efficient disassembly, movement and reassembly. - Read Exodus and Leviticus and you will see how fascinating the story of the tabernacle is.

[Ammonite specimen] The stony cast of this ammonite specimen shows the typical ammonitic suture. The specimen is approx. 25 centimeters in diameter. Unfortunately it was not possible for me to classify the ammonite.

[Wall in detail] There are hundreds or even thousands of ammonites in one specific sediment layer. The specimens are all of the same size, approx. 20 to 40 centimeters in diameter. This mass burial implies a rapid sedimentation.
