WISH IT WAS STILL IN PRINT

Years ago the study of the Old Testament was the consuming passion of men and women who believed with Augustine that "the New Testament lies hidden in the Old, and the Old [Testament] is made plain in the New." They knew they could not fully understand the teaching of Christ and the apostles without first mastering the writings of Moses and the prophets. Now, however, it would be difficult for anyone well versed on the subject much less a written volume which explains the meaning and significance of the Tabernacle and its furnishings. Therefore the need to reprint a competent work on the symbolism and theology of the Tabernacle is no longer an option but a necessity.Dirk Dolman's Simple Talks on the Tabernacle provides students of the Word with a rare combination of good exposition and the application of devotional truth latent in Israel's sanctuary and worship. It reveals Christ in the relative unattractiveness (to the natural eye) of His humanity as well as the significance of His work.It has rightly been said that our study of the Scriptures should lead us to worship. As we contemplate the mysteries of Christ contained in the Old Testament, our study should enrich our understanding of the teaching of the Gospel spelled out in greater detail in the New Testament. The result should be praise and adoration, and gratitude in loving service, this book points us in that direction.
