How do we know that Christ is represented by the showbread?

Answered in 1 source

The showbread is called the 'bread of God,' symbolizing Christ as the true Bread of Life that sustains us.

The identification of Christ with the showbread is evident in John 6, where Jesus refers to Himself as the Bread of Life. The term 'showbread' suggests it is the bread that symbolically represents God's presence. Each loaf on the table, made from fine flour, signifies the spiritual nourishment Christ provides for His people. Christ being the Bread of Life means He satisfies the deepest spiritual hunger and offers eternal life to all who partake in Him. The physical elements of the showbread rituals reinforce our understanding of Christ as the source of spiritual sustenance.
