Show moreThis book for children was written to encourage children to engage with the Old Testament scriptures, with a particular focus on the nature and purpose of the Tabernacle. In this, the third edition, the woodcuts of the former editions have been replaced by steel engravings. The subject of the Tabernacle in the wilderness is initially considered in the form of a series of questions, which the author answers with quotations from the Bible. The book offers guidance to moral conduct and advice on how to value material objects, and gives an overview of spiritual teachings concerning sin and atonement. The book concludes with a chapter about the Ark of the Covenant, which continues to describe the architecture of the Tabernacle and its functions. by Frank H. White. Show less
