Moses was given a pattern of the heavenly Sanctuary/Tabernacle that embodies and represents God's plan of salvation in symbols and types. (Ex 25:8-9; Heb 8:5)

1Viewed from above the east gate entrance, the Sanctuary furnishings (including the courtyard) are arranged in the shape of a cross.2The Ark of the Covenant contains God's law, the 10 commandments, protected by 2 'covering angels' (Lucifer; Eze 28:14). The mercy seat on the Ark is God's throne in heaven (Ex 25:17-22).
