This structure was crucial for their worship and served as a symbol of God's covenant with His people, emphasizing the importance of holiness and order in their community. Exodus 26 specifically outlines the construction of the Tabernacle's framework, including the exact number of boards needed for each side to ensure everything was built according to God's precise design.
