THE ENTRANCE OF THE TABERNACLE ITSELF
The five pillars at the entrance of the tabernacle were made of acacia wood and overlaid with gold, but stood on five sockets of bronze (Exod. 26:36, 37), and not silver sockets as the four pillars (Exod. 26:31-33) between the Holy place and the Holy of Holies.
The reason why these five pillars stood on bronze sockets was because they were placed just outside the tabernacle itself - at the entrance. Therefore, they are regarded as part of the court where the rest of the court's sockets were of bronze (Exod. 27:17).
Brass speaks of judgement, and five of grace. It is only by the grace of God, that in Christ we have already been judged and that we now have access to the holy places and the most holy presence of God, and to be allowed to have fellowship with a Holy God.
About this Plan
At the beginning of our study of the tabernacle, a choice must be made: Do we begin at the Holy of Holies as we see the Bible does in Exodus 25, or with the silver foundation of the tabernacle itself, or do we start with the courtyard, the outer fencing of the tabernacle? We start our study of the tabernacle beginning at the silver foundation of the tabernacle’s construction.
