When Moses was about to make the Tabernacle, God reminded him many times to "make all things according to the pattern shewed to thee on the mount." (Heb.8:5, Exod.25:9,40)
The reason for this is because it is a pattern of "heaven itself"(Heb.8:5; 9:24) The Tabernacle of Moses is a "model" of the "true Tabernacle, which the Lord pitched, and not man." The Bride of Christ is being build according this patten. When the journey of the children of Israel (Phase 2) is placed along side of the Tabernacle of Moses, the pattern is the same. It is a second witness that God is being faithful to His Blueprint. (Deut.19:15, Matt.18:16, 2 Cor.13:1)
