From Mr. E. B. Pond THE TABERNACLE ΑΝ ITS TEACHINGS. WITH NOTES ON THE CLEANSING OF THE SANCTUARY. "For there was a tabernacle made...... which was a figure for the time then present." "But Christ being come an High Priest of good things-to come by a greater and more perfect Tabernacle not made with hands......by his own blood he entered in once into the [antitypical] Holy Place [Tabernacle], having obtained eternal redemption for us." Heb. 9: 2, 9, 11, 12. SUPPLEMENT TO FEB. NO. "ZION'S WATCH TOWER." PITTSBURGH, PA., U. S. A. 1882. THIS pamphlet is prepared for thinking christians; especially those, who "by reason of use, have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.” (Heb. 5: 11-14.) The author has sought to present, not so much the details of the Tabernacle structure and its furniture, as an explanation of the teachings, and of the significance of the typical sacrifices. The former have been frequently described at length by other writers. In the interpretation of the types we accept as correct, only such interpretation, as is found in harmony with the other features of the same type, and with the plan and Word of God in general. When we find this, and we believe it to be the case in those explanations offered in this little work, then we feel sure that we have the truth on the subject. As many of the thoughts are new, the readers will generally be more benefited by a second or third reading than by the first. This pamphlet is dedicated to the Priests and Levites of the Gospel Age-The body of Christ, and Household of Faith-praying the God of all grace that it may be blest to such as have an "ear to hear." Pittsburgh, Pa., U. S. A., Feb'y 1, 1882. THE AUTHOR. |
