Commentary on Exodus 29:43

Theological / Devotional

There I will meet. Knowing the trials of Israel in their wanderings through the wilderness, God encouraged them with the assurance of His presence. At its dedication the tabernacle was filled with the “glory” of the Lord (ch. 40:34). The presence of the Shekinah was the true consecration of the tabernacle, for all things else about it were but types and figures (see on Gen. 3:24). Thus God not only “put his name there” (Deut. 12:21), but His visible presence as well.
