What does the Bible say about the glory of God filling the tabernacle?

Answered in 1 source

The glory of God filling the tabernacle signifies His presence and is a representation of Christ as the true tabernacle.

In Exodus 40:34-38, we see the glory of the Lord filling the tabernacle after Moses completes the work of building it. This event signifies the presence of God among His people and illustrates Christ as the true tabernacle. Just as the cloud represented the presence of God to the Israelites, Jesus embodies that presence fully, as He is the glory of God incarnate. He fulfills the typology of the tabernacle, confirming that His church, made up of His elect, also serves as a dwelling place for His glory, filled with the Holy Spirit after Christ's redemptive work is finished.
