Now when these things were thus ordained, the priests went always into the first tabernacle, accomplishing the service of God.
So once everything was set up this way, the priests would regularly go into the first part of the tabernacle to do their daily worship duties for God.
The priests had their routine down, showing up consistently to serve God in the sacred space.
📚 Historical Context
In the Old Testament, God instructed Moses to build the tabernacle as a portable sanctuary for the Israelites to worship and offer sacrifices during their wilderness journey. The priests were required to enter the outer section, known as the Holy Place, on a regular basis to perform daily rituals and maintain the sacred services as part of God's covenant with His people. This system illustrated the separation between a holy God and sinful humanity, emphasizing the need for ongoing mediation through the priesthood.
