The Tent in the Desert

The Tabernacle is a symbol of Israel's relationship with God in the Old Testament-through the nation's time in the wilderness, God's presence could be found within the carefully constructed structure. Peter Currie's The Tent in the Desert walks modern readers through a comprehensive understanding of the Tabernacle, putting in simple terms the significance of its detailed construction and its centrality to ancient Jewish life. Through conversation with the gospels, classic hymns, and biblical commentary, Currie demonstrates the centrality of sacrifices in one's relationship with God-and how Jesus, the Ultimate Sacrifice, is central to our salvation.
