So earth on heaven you said?
On earth as it is in heaven.
Well, like mirrored images.
And once again, that's a cultural context.
So like, for instance, the building of the tabernacle.
God gives Moses all these instructions to do these things, and he tells him, these are reflections...
of the bigger real thing in heaven.
So the temple was supposed to reflect the heavenly temple.
This ephod that they were told to make and wear mirror images the priest in heaven, what he wears.
And it says that the inner sanctum, the holiest of holies, is gated up.
It's boxed off.
That's where the presence of God is.
That is the Garden of Eden.
And it says that to get in there, they have these huge curtains, and it has the cherubim depicted standing there.
what says that the cherubim guard the way to the tree of life.
So you have to get through the cherubim to get into the holiest of holies, Eden.
So all these things were mirrored images of what was going on in heaven, like a shadow.
And when Moses talks about the stages of building those, it says that there were six stages.
Well, it is mirroring creation.
And in the seventh and final stage, it says that God, His presence, come and rested in the tabernacle.
