This was doubtless dwelling, or headquarters of Moses, and place where public business of nation was transacted. Exodus 33:7-10: Reference To The Tabernacle verse 7: And Moses took tabernacle, and pitched it without camp, afar off from camp, and called it Tabernacle of congregation. And it came to pass, that every one which sought LORD went out unto tabernacle of congregation, which was without camp. verse 8: And it came to pass, when Moses went out unto tabernacle, that all people rose up, and stood every man at his tent door, and looked after Moses, until he was gone into tabernacle. SACRED PLACES " THE TABERNACLE " "The TABERNACLE Set Up" verse 9: And it came to pass, as Moses entered into tabernacle, cloudy pillar descended, and stood at door of tabernacle, and LORD talked with Moses.

Crawford In Hebrews 11:1-12 an explanation of faith takes place. In this passage, we start with a definition of faith, “Now faith is substance of things hoped for, evidence of things not seen. (Hebrews 11:1)”. The remaining verses proceed to describe situations where faith was exercised, and results of exercised faith. When we think about definition of faith, we should realize that faith demands belief in something before it occurs. Faith is necessary in order to believe in creation of all things by God, as stated in Genesis 1:1 (Hebrews 11:3). Scientist, philosophers, and common person constantly try to rationalize creation of universe; however, in end for Christian, faith is necessary to believe Biblical account of creation. Several people of Bible had exercised their faith in God. Abel, Enoch, Noah, Abraham, and Sarah are specifically sited; these are just a few people. The faith that these individuals exhibited is required of all of us who have chosen to accept Christ and please God (Hebrews 11:6). If we take Noah for example, God spoke to him and asked him to build Ark. Noah acted on God’s request. (Genesis 6:13-22).
