Day 118: Building the Tabernacle and Sacred Offerings - Immerse Bible Reading Experience

Welcome to Immerse: The Daily Bible Reading Experience. Today's episode covers Day 118, where Moses gathers the community of Israel and relays God's commandments. The focus is on observing the Sabbath and preparing sacred offerings for the Lord. Moses instructs the Israelites to bring various precious materials and skilled craftsmanship to construct the tabernacle and its furnishings, including the ark, the table, and the sacred garments for the priests. Detailed descriptions of the materials and construction techniques emphasize the importance of purity and devotion in worship. The episode concludes with the people's overwhelming generosity, providing more than enough materials to complete the sanctuary as commanded by the Lord.

QUICK START GUIDE
3 ways to get the most out of your experience

1. Use Immerse: Beginnings instead of your regular chapter and verse Bible. This special reader’s edition restores the Bible to its natural simplicity and beauty by removing chapter and verse numbers and other historical additions. Letters look like letters, songs look like songs, and the original literary structures are visible in each book.
2. Commit to making this a community experience. Immerse is designed for groups to encounter large portions of the Bible together
   for 8 weeks–more like a book club, less like a Bible study. By meeting every week in small groups and discussing what you read in open,
   honest conversations, you and your community can come together to be transformed through an authentic experience with the Scriptures.
3. Aim to understand the big story. Read through “The Stories and the Story” (p. 483) to see how the books of the Bible work together to tell God’s story of his creation’s restoration. As you read through Immerse: Beginnings, rather than ask, “How do I fit God into my busy life?” begin asking, “How can I join in God’s great plan by living out my part in his story?”
