This was necessary as the act of laying the sins on the goat had rendered him unclean (Keil and Delitzsch 1980:405). Aaron would…
is it not already supposed to be a sacred place without the incense . This leads me into my next topic of the "body of Christ" that it is kept in the tabernacle on the altar.

citizens, a possession at best to used for men’s pleasure and disposal. Not having a child of her own would have lowered her status, regardless of her position. David’s Tabernacle/Tent was a house of worship. It was David’s intention to build a permanent home to house the presence of God.
