What is the significance of the tabernacle in relation to Christ?

Answered in 1 source

The tabernacle serves as a type, foreshadowing Christ as the ultimate meeting place between God and man.

The tabernacle represents Christ, illustrating how He is the true mediator between God and humanity. In the passage, every element of the tabernacle points to aspects of Christ’s work. The Levitical duties symbolized the complexities of approaching a holy God, which is fulfilled in Christ, who is our mediator. John 1:14 declares, 'And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us,' indicating that Christ Himself became the ultimate tabernacle where God dwells with His people. Every aspect of worship in the tabernacle finds its ultimate reality and fulfillment in Jesus.
