Exodus 40:29

Key Reflection

In Exodus 40:29, Moses sets up the screen at the entrance of the tabernacle, which served as a barrier between the holy and most holy places within the sanctuary. This screen, made of fine linen and embroidered with cherubim (Exodus 26:31-35), would have been understood by the original audience as a symbol of divine presence and separation, safeguarding the holiness of God's dwelling place while allowing for the necessary access of priests to perform their duties.
