“And let them make me a sanctuary; that I may dwell among them.”
Exodus 25:8 (KJV)
Commentary on Exodus 25:8
The purpose statement: 'Let them make me a sanctuary; that I may dwell among them.' The Hebrew מִקְדָּשׁ (miqdash, sanctuary) means 'holy place,' emphasizing separation unto God. The goal is not merely a building but God's dwelling presence—'I may dwell (שָׁכַן, shakan) among them.' This prefigures the incarnation: 'The Word became flesh and dwelt (ἐσκήνωσεν, 'tabernacled') among us' (John 1:14).
