Items in the Tabernacle Example
God used the prime number 5 in the construction of His sanctuaries. In these
examples, He used 5+5 =10 which is related to His “1” concept. An example of
this is found in 2 Chronicles 3:10-13. Here, God designed the wings of the
cherubim in the “Holy Place” in the sanctuary to be 5 cubits in length.
"10 And in the most holy house he made two cherubim of image work, and overlaid
them with gold.
11 And the wings of the cherubim were twenty cubits long: one wing of the one
cherub was five cubits, reaching to the wall of the house: and the other wing
was likewise five cubits, reaching to the wing of the other cherub.
12 And one wing of the other cherub was five cubits, reaching to the wall of the
house: and the other wing was five cubits also, joining to the wing of the other
cherub.
13 The wings of these cherubims spread themselves forth twenty cubits: and they
stood on their feet, and their faces were inward.”
In this Scripture, the 10 cubits for wings of each cherubim is sequenced as 5 +
5. There are numerous examples in the Bible where God used the prime number 5
this way. Many of these examples pertain to Yahweh’s Tabernacle numbers where
prime numbers are preferred.
Lavers Example
For example, consider the arrangement of the items in the Holy Place of the sanctuary in 2 Chronicles 4:6-8.
“6 He made also ten lavers, and put five on the right hand, and
five on the
left, to wash in them: such things as they offered for the burnt offering they
washed in them; but the sea was for the priests to wash in.
7 And he made ten candlesticks of gold according to their form, and set them in
the temple, five on the right hand, and five on the left.
8 He made also ten tables, and placed them in the temple, five on the right
side, and five on the left. And he made an hundred basons of gold.”
Again, the prime number 5 is a special number that God used in His temples.
These and other temple numbers are contained in the book “Yahweh’s Temple
Numbers.”
