32 Thus all the work of the tabernacle of the tent of meeting was completed ; and the sons of Israel did according to all that the Lord had commanded Moses ; so they did . 33 They brought the tabernacle to Moses , the tent and all its furnishings : its clasps , its boards , its bars , and its pillars and its sockets ; 34 and the covering of rams' skins dyed red , and the covering of porpoise skins , and the screening veil ; 35 the ark of the testimony and its poles and the mercy seat ; 36 the table , all its utensils , and the bread of the Presence ; 37 the pure gold lampstand , with its arrangement of lamps and all its utensils , and the oil for the light ; 38 and the gold altar , and the anointing oil and the fragrant incense , and the veil for the doorway of the tent ; 39 the bronze altar and its bronze grating , its poles and all its utensils , the laver and its stand ; 40 the hangings for the court , its pillars and its sockets , and the screen for the gate of the court , its cords and its pegs and all the equipment for the service of the tabernacle , for the tent of meeting ; 41 the woven garments for ministering in the holy place and the holy garments for Aaron the priest and the garments of his sons , to minister as priests . 42 So the sons of Israel did all the work according to all that the Lord had commanded Moses . 43 And Moses examined all the work and behold , they had done it; just as the Lord had commanded , this they had done . So Moses blessed them.

(Read Exodus 39:32-43)
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, Revelation 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 What, then, will be the splendour of His appearance, when the cloud shall be withdrawn, and his faithful worshippers shall see him as he is!
