THE PERFECT OFFERING

Every component of the temple of Moses was an offering first (Exodus 35.) This included what was in the holy of holies, specifically, the Ark which was made one with the Cherubim, and it's contents. In the old, these offerings were restricted to the High priest, the only persons whose appointment, garment and preparations met the high standards of this offering. Israel's covenant was unable to avail this offering which to us was availed at the death of Christ, when He gave himself up as our high priest and tore the veil, the seal that withheld us. This perfect offering, represented by the ark, Cherubim and its contents - living bread, the law/righteousness and the anointing of priesthood/budded rod of Aaron, are not just offerings of men to GOD, but also His gift, His grace to men. The two are one and make the grory of God, also the Angel of the covenant ~ the perfect offering.
