Synopsis

Christians often wonder whether it is worth their time to read and study the seemingly odd narratives about God’s instructions for the tabernacle in the second half of the book of Exodus. The answer, according to Daniel R. Hyde, is an emphatic yes. In God in Our Midst: The Tabernacle and Our Relationship with God, Rev. Hyde shows that the tabernacle narratives have much to teach us about God Himself, about sin, about redemption in Christ, and about how we are to live for God today. Above all, by interpreting these narratives according to solid hermeneutical principles and New Testament revelation, Rev. Hyde shows that these passages reveal Christ. Ultimately, Hyde says, it is good to read the tabernacle narratives because they are part of our family history. We need to read and meditate on that history because we have the same God, the God who told His old covenant, “I will dwell in your midst,“ and who tells us that Christians are the true tabernacle, the dwelling place of God under the new covenant (Eph. 2:22).

Anyone who hikes in the desert knows how hard it can be to navigate such terrain and how important it is to prepare. I learned this once when I and several friends decided to explore some of Joshua Tree National Park’s more than one-thousand square miles. Wandering into the wastes, none of us though......more

Goodreads review by Christina on July 24, 2020

A decent introduction to the old testament tabernacle and it's relationship to the story of scripture and Christ however I found it both full of opinions that were not backed by scripture and less academic then I was looking for. I made it 60% of the way through and finally stopped realizing I wasn'......more

Goodreads review by Leah on June 08, 2020

another book from long ago I hadn't added on good reads (until now). Who would disagree with Professor David P Murray telling us in his foreword, "I expect any interpretation to start with the original context and park there for a while." Murray also looks for "…a book that follows Jesus' and His dis......more

Goodreads review by Marven on June 07, 2020

This is a fine book. Daniel’s style is fine as well, quite readable. I think I was looking for more depth and this seemed an introduction. Further, I stumbled over what I saw as Daniel’s opinions taking the place of solid exegesis of passages, in example, he belabours his comparison of the temple to......more
