    First, the tabernacle is a symbol of the body or soul of a person. There are three stages.

    Stage One: The Courtyard: Passover and Feasts of Unleavened Bread: Spring -New Creation

    This stage a priest makes a sacrifice, cleanses his body, and puts on priestly garments.

    Physical meaning: The sacrifice is a lamb, the cleansing is the Red Sea,

    Spiritual meaning: The sacrifice is Jesus, the cleansing is baptism, the garments are righteousness

    Stage Two: The Holy Place: Pentecost: Summer -Sanctification

    Physical meaning: table of shewbread, candlestick, incense

    Spritual meaning: fellowship, light (holy spirit by reading the bible), prayers. (These are actions of service which each Jew and Christian can perform)

    Stage Three: The Most Holy Place: Feast of Tabernacles: Fall -Final Redemption

    Physical Meaning: Law – manna – Aron’s Staff

    Spiritual Meaning: Holy Spirit – Jesus’s body – Priestly authority and leadership

    It also took one full year from the time Moses held the passover until the completion of the sanctuary. Likewise, there are many devotionals such as "The bible in a year". Symbolically we create the tabernacle within us each and every year.

    The Tabernacle holds the Body of Christ. The High Priest of the Church is Christ, the Head of his Body.

    These are so full of types of the Messiah that I’m not sure one could list them in a few pages.
    The tabernacle alone is loaded with many many images.

    A few would include:
    The tablernacle is made of dull materials, not much to look at and yet it housed great spritiual treasure. God’s Spirit itself rested on it.
    The tabernacle was a way for God to be with us
    In Revelation God is said to dwell with man

    As far as the high priest
    Jesus is the ultimate prophet priest and king
    the jewels on the high priests urim and thummin are like the jewels of the foudnation of heven
