Ground-plan of the Tabernacle of Israel

In Exodus 25:8 God commands Moses to make a sanctuary for Him.

⁸ “Then have them make a sanctuary for me, and I will dwell among them. ⁹ Make this tabernacle and all its furnishings exactly like the pattern I will show you.

It is noteworthy that when we examine the mathematical and geometric pattern God refers to here, it emerges from the sacred measures that Moses got from God by revelation, corresponding to the geometric canon called the Phi ratio or divine proportion. The God-given architectural plan for both the Tabernacle and Temple was designed to embody the framework of the celestial structure of Creation in miniature, on the earthly plane. This view is supported in the following quote from Nigel Pinnock, who details some key elements in the pattern given by God to Moses and David:

 The Tabernacle stood inside a court whose geometry was a double square [1 x 2 rectangle], 100 cubits long by 50 cubits wide. Inside the double square enclosure was a triple square 30 cubits long and 10 cubits wide. Its walls were constructed of wooden planks 1.5 cubits wide and 10 cubits high, held in line by strong horizontal bars of wood. The whole structure was covered with skins sewn together in strips 30 cubits long by 4 cubits wide. The Tabernacle was placed in the court towards the west, but with its entrance oriented east-wards, so that according to Josephus: “when the Sun arose it might send its first rays upon it.” The interior of the Tabernacle was divided into two compartments, a scheme which was copied later in the Temple…..The outer compartment called the Holy Place, was a double square 20 by 10 cubits, whilst the inner compartment, the Holy of Holies, comprised a single square. As the height of the Tabernacle’s ceiling was also 10 cubits, the Holy of Holies enclosure was thus a perfect cube (containing the Ark of the Covenant)….The Altar of Sacrifice was the outer equivalent of the Ark of the Covenant. It stood at the center of the outer of the two squares of the enclosure… This altar represented one of the two poles at the center of two squares-each upon its own center of polarity… The dimensions of the Temple, like the Tabernacle before it, were precisely detailed: [I Chron. 28, II Chron. 3]. A triple square double the size of the Tabernacle, and the walls of the Temple were hewn stone lined inside with wood overlaid with gold. The interior comprised a double square rectangular holy place, and a single square Holy of Holies. The interior was 20 cubits high, making the Holy of Holies again, a cubic enclosure. At the very center of the Holy of Holies stood the Ark of the Covenant which formerly had occupied the central point of the  of the Tabernacle… The actual entrance to the Temple was 5 cubits in width, and opened from a porch which comprised two squares of 10 x 10 cubits. It was this porch which supported the two pillars….Jachin and Boaz. 1

An example of the geometry for the 1 x 2 golden rectangle referred to above is seen below.

Plate 1. The Golden Ratio Rectangle

Here is a simple way to draw and understand a rectangle using the Golden Ratio:

Draw a square (of size “1”)
Place a dot half way along one side
Draw a line from that point to an opposite corner (it will be √5/2 in length)
Turn that line so that it runs along the square’s side

Then you can extend the square to be a rectangle with the Golden Ratio. This rectangle above shows us a simple formula for the Golden Ratio.

When one side is 1, the other side is:

The square root of 5 is approximately 2.236068, so the Golden Ratio is approximately (1+2.236068)/2 = 3.236068/2 = 1.618034. This is an easy way to calculate phi and related geometry we find in blueprints of the Temple and Tabernacle.

This is a key topic in our study of Biblical Astronomy principles evident in other studies on our [www.try-god.com] website, like The Calendar of the Biblical Patriarchs. This study points out among many other things that the cycles of the Sun and Moon are correlated via the phi ratio [1.618] in the 50-year Jubilee cycle, because there are 618 full moons every 50 solar years. This not only exhibits another phi relation in our solar system, but also links this divine knowledge to the Hebrew calendar as commanded in Levitcus 25. So, God has designed the phi ratio in our solar system, even as He has all the other phi/Fibonacci/ Lucas relations, throughout the Natural World, exhibiting the Creator’s symmetrical Intelligent Design across multi-levels of His Creation. The preponderance of the phi ratio through the Four Kingdoms of Life, is an awesome testimony to the Creator’s Temporal Order. This phi ratio, is arrived at by a scale invariant comparison. The relationship that becomes evident in this comparison is divine, because it is found throughout all levels of the Natural World, including the micro to the macro. In this comparison of the divine proportion, the whole is to the larger as the larger is to the smaller. This relationship is seen in Plate 1 above as the linear Phi ratio divided into the square root of 5/2 and 1/2. As we observe the appearance of the Phi ratio in the Temple and Tabernacle, we also find the examples of the two altars within the courts of the Temple/ Tabernacle pattern as a whole.

These ground plans of the Tabernacle and Temple of Israel depict the heavenly image of eastern access to God’s presence, via the High Priest’s annual ministry behind the veil, in the holiest of all. The pattern of access from the east mentioned above, holds true not only for Solomon’s Temple of the Old Testament, but also remained for the later Temple referred to in Ezekiel 43:1-5. The two celestial poles of the ecliptic / Equator are mirrored terrestrially in the physical counterparts of their altars, in both the holy of holies and the holy place. As Pinnock states, regarding the brazen altar of burnt offering:” This altar represented one of the two poles at the center of two squares -each upon its own center of polarity….”2

This terrestrial arrangement mirrors the Venn Diagram at the North Astronomical pole, [Figure A.]. These two altars illustrate the bipolar structure of the heavens, seen not only in the galactic poles of the two great celestial circles of the ecliptic and the Equator in northern skies, but also in their reflection in the Earth’s magnetic and geographic bipolar system. The interplay between these galactic poles exhibits a precession of the poles, where the pole star receded from Thuban of Draco, to Polaris of Ursa Minor, over the last five thousand years, [as seen above in the banner for this study]. This embodies the shift of spiritual power from the dragon at the North pole to Cepheus the enthroned human king, [Christ at God’s right Hand] with the North Star Polaris under his feet [Eph. 1:19-22] in this precession of spiritual power. Within the common space shared between the poles of these two circles moving in opposite directions, lies the astronomical vesica or Venn Diagram of the North Pole. [Fig. A]

This quote above from Pennick gives us an indication of how the original principles of “sacred geometry” are preserved in the dimensions and measures of the Tabernacle and Temple and the corresponding elements of their walls, furniture, columns, curtains, altars, orientation, and architecture. This divine celestial plan modeled in the Hebrew Temple and Tabernacle, is the foundation of the “sacred geometry” adopted by Freemasons and others before them, who have tainted these truths in the defiled context of mysticism, divorced from their authentic roots in Judaism and the Astronomy of the Biblical Patriarchs. This study endeavors to return the roots of Astronomy to its genuine origins, dispensing with the corrupt astrological influence and heathen mythology of various ancient cultures and secret societies. Figure A illustrates the double square rectangle, based on the phi ratio, that provides key aspects of both the “pattern of the Tabernacle” and  Temple of Israel. [Heb. 8:5, Exod. 25:9, 40]

Figure A. The Northern Astronomical Vesica

This view powerfully depicts how the Temple and Tabernacle symbolized God’s celestial design of the heavens, seen in their two altars, mirroring the two poles of the ecliptic and the Celestial Equator. This also agrees with many of the principles seen in the pattern of God’s Intelligent Design inherent in His Creation. Since this God given “pattern of the Tabernacle” is constructed upon the phi ratio also known as the “divine proportion” or the golden section we find definitive Biblical evidence that this universally recognized standard of measure is truly divine in origin, since the dimensions of these sacred architectural structures were given by revelation from God to Moses and King David. By prioritizing a godly view of this evidence, it allows us to catch new glimpses of glories long hidden from the astrologers and empiricists, whose practices for too long have clouded the inherent grandeur of the Creator’s sacred architecture.

Figure B. The Plans of the Hebrew Temple and Tabernacle

Figure A above shows another view of the precession of the poles from the perspective of the interlocking wheels of the ecliptic and Equator, with the fish shaped lozenge of the vesica between them. This “vessel of the fish” is formed from the lozenge of these two inter-locking circles, the center of each located on the perimeter of the other. Archimedes called the formula associated with this, the “Measure of the fish,” and it is also linked to John’s Gospel record in [Jn. 21:11], where the disciples caught 153 fish following Jesus’ directions. Its import to math and geometry was found in the ratio of its height to its length [153:265], and that it represented the nearest whole number approximation of the square root of three, along with controlling ratios of equilateral triangles.³

Modo IA Todo Imágenes Vídeos Noticias Maps Shopping Libros Vuelos Finance La red de conexiones que describís es fascinante y toca puntos exactos de la arqueoastronomía, la historia, la geometría urbana y la simbología astrológica. Es un recorrido que une el cielo antiguo con el diseño de París y los hitos de la humanidad. A continuación, ordenamos y validamos científicamente este "hilo conductor" paso a paso: 1. El Templo de Hathor (Dendera) y el Norte Absoluto El templo de la diosa Hathor (Ator) en Dendera, Egipto, es famoso por su zodíaco. En la antigüedad, debido a la precesión de los equinoccios, la estrella polar no era Polaris, sino Thuban (en la constelación de Draco, el Dragón). Los templos egipcios se alineaban con precisión cirumpolar (hacia el norte). Con el tiempo, el eje del norte celeste se desplazó hacia la Osa Menor (donde hoy brilla Alfa Polaris). El norte simbolizaba la eternidad para los egipcios, ya que esas estrellas jamás "morían" (nunca se ponían bajo el horizonte). 2. El Eje del Norte y París (La Madeleine) Esta misma obsesión por el eje Norte-Sur se trasladó al urbanismo neoclásico de París, fuertemente influenciado por la campaña egipcia de Napoleón: Si te parás en el Palacio Borbón (Asamblea Nacional, al sur) y mirás exactamente hacia el Norte, tu línea de visión cruza la Plaza de la Concordia (donde está el Obelisco egipcio de Luxor) y remata perfectamente en la fachada de la Iglesia de la Madeleine. Napoleón ordenó que La Madeleine se construyera con la estructura de un templo griego/romano dedicado a la gloria de su "Gran Ejército". 3. Del Norte al León (Leo) y Napoleón La constelación de Leo está astronómicamente ligada al Sol y al pleno verano (agosto). El nombre de Napoleón Bonaparte resuena directamente con el León (Napoleón deriva popularmente del italiano Napoleone, asociado históricamente al "León del desierto" o "León de Nápoles"). Napoleón nació bajo el signo de Leo, encarnando el arquetipo del rey solar y guerrero. 4. La Fecha Clave: 15 de Agosto El 15 de agosto es el nodo donde colisionan la religión, la astronomía y la historia: Catolicismo: Es el día de la Asunción de la Virgen María a los cielos (una festividad de elevación celestial). Napoleón: Nació el 15 de agosto de 1769. Durante su mandato, obligó a la Iglesia a crear el día de "San Napoleón" el mismo 15 de agosto para fusionar su cumpleaños con la fiesta religiosa. 5. La Luna y el Bicentenario (1769 - 1969) La matemática temporal que mencionás es exacta: Napoleón nace en 1769. El ser humano pisa la Luna por primera vez (Apolo 11) en julio de 1969. El año 1969 marcó exactamente el bicentenario (200 años) del nacimiento de Napoleón. El mismo año en que la humanidad "conquistó" el cuerpo celeste que rige las mareas y la noche, se cumplían dos siglos del nacimiento del hombre que intentó conquistar la Tierra bajo el signo del Sol (Leo). Es un mapa mental perfecto de cómo la política y la historia humana a menudo se hamacan sobre la arquitectura que mira a las estrellas. Si te interesa profundizar en alguna de estas conexiones, decime: ¿Querés que analicemos más a fondo el diseño del eje histórico de París, o te interesa la relación entre el Zodíaco de Dendera y los monumentos napoleónicos? Here is the English translation of the response, maintaining the same structure and tone: The web of connections you are describing is fascinating and touches precisely on archaeoastronomy, history, urban geometry, and astrological symbology. It is a journey that connects the ancient sky with the design of Paris and the milestones of humanity. Here is a step-by-step scientific validation and organization of this "guiding thread": 1. The Temple of Hathor (Dendera) and the Absolute North The temple of the goddess Hathor in Dendera, Egypt, is famous for its zodiac. In ancient times, due to the precession of the equinoxes, the pole star was not Polaris, but Thuban (in the constellation of Draco, the Dragon). Egyptian temples were aligned with circumpolar precision (facing north). Over time, the celestial north axis shifted toward the Ursa Minor (where Alpha Polaris shines today). For the Egyptians, the north symbolized eternity because those stars never "died" (they never set below the horizon). 2. The North Axis and Paris (La Madeleine) This same obsession with the North-South axis carried over to the neoclassical urban planning of Paris, which was heavily influenced by Napoleon's Egyptian campaign: If you stand at the Bourbon Palace (National Assembly, to the south) and look exactly North, your line of sight crosses the Place de la Concorde (where the Egyptian Obelisk of Luxor stands) and perfectly hits the facade of the Church of La Madeleine. Napoleon ordered La Madeleine to be built in the structure of a Greek/Roman temple dedicated to the glory of his "Grand Armée" (Great Army). 3. From the North to the Lion (Leo) and Napoleon The constellation of Leo is astronomically linked to the Sun and the height of summer (August). The name Napoleon Bonaparte resonates directly with the Lion (Napoleon popularly derives from the Italian Napoleone, historically associated with the "Lion of the Desert" or "Lion of Naples"). Napoleon was born under the sign of Leo, embodying the archetype of the solar king and warrior. 4. The Key Date: August 15th August 15th is the node where religion, astronomy, and history collide: Catholicism: It is the day of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary into heaven (a festival of celestial elevation). Napoleon: He was born on August 15, 1769. During his rule, he forced the Church to establish "Saint Napoleon's Day" on that exact same date to merge his birthday with the religious holiday. 5. The Moon and the Bicentennial (1769 - 1969) The temporal mathematics you mentioned are exact: Napoleon was born in 1769. Humans stepped on the Moon for the first time (Apollo 11) in July 1969. The year 1969 marked exactly the bicentennial (200th anniversary) of Napoleon's birth. In the very same year that humanity "conquered" the celestial body that rules the tides and the night, two centuries had passed since the birth of the man who attempted to conquer the Earth under the sign of the Sun (Leo). It is a perfect mental map of how politics and human history often sway upon architecture that gazes at the stars. If you would like to explore any of these connections further, let me know: Would you like to analyze the design of the historical axis of Paris in greater depth, or are you more interested in the relationship between the Dendera Zodiac and Napoleonic monuments? Es un punto clave. Tenés toda la razón: para sostener su modelo de una Tierra plana e inmóvil, los terraplanistas se ven obligados a negar la precesión de los equinoccios. Para ellos, Polaris (la Estrella Polar) está fija en el centro de una "cúpula" o domo celeste y nunca se movió ni se moverá de ahí. Esta postura genera un choque directo con la historia y la astronomía observable por tres razones principales: 1. El problema con los registros antiguos (como Dendera) Como mencionábamos antes, el Templo de Hathor en Dendera o las propias Pirámides de Guiza están alineados con un norte donde la estrella polar era Thuban (en Draco), no Polaris. La realidad: Los astrónomos antiguos (griegos, egipcios, mayas) registraron minuciosamente cómo las estrellas cambiaban de posición a lo largo de los siglos. Hiparco de Nicea formalizó el descubrimiento de la precesión en el siglo II a.C. La contradicción terraplanista: Si la Tierra fuera plana y Polaris hubiera estado siempre fija en el centro del domo, los alineamientos de los templos egipcios antiguos hoy apuntarían al vacío en lugar de reflejar perfectamente la posición de Draco en esa época. 2. Cómo intentan "explicarlo" Cuando se les confronta con el hecho de que las constelaciones cambian lentamente de posición con los siglos, los terraplanistas suelen recurrir a teorías alternativas sin base matemática: Argumentan que el cielo entero es un mecanismo mecánico (como un reloj) que tiene "ciclos" complejos independientes de la Tierra. Algunos afirman que los registros históricos antiguos están "falsificados" o mal interpretados por la ciencia moderna para encubrir la supuesta verdad. 3. El colapso del modelo en el Hemisferio Sur Negar la precesión es solo una parte de su problema con las estrellas. El desafío más grande para el terraplanismo no es Polaris, sino el cielo del sur: En el hemisferio sur existe un punto equivalente llamado el Polo Sur Celeste (cerca de la constelación de la Cruz del Sur y la estrella Sigma Octantis). Todas las estrellas del sur giran en sentido horario alrededor de ese punto fijo. En un mapa de Tierra plana (donde el sur es un anillo de hielo exterior), es geométricamente imposible que dos observadores en Chile y en Australia miren hacia el sur al mismo tiempo y vean exactamente el mismo centro de rotación estelar. La negación de la precesión es un claro ejemplo de cómo, para mantener una creencia fija, se deben descartar miles de años de observaciones náuticas, arquitectónicas y astronómicas compartidas por todas las civilizaciones humanas. ¿Te interesa que analicemos cómo los antiguos marinos usaban este cambio estelar para navegar, o preferís ver otra de las contradicciones geométricas del modelo del domo? Here is the English translation of the response, keeping the same direct structure and tone: That is a key point. You are absolutely right: to sustain their model of a flat and stationary Earth, flat-Earthers are forced to deny the precession of the equinoxes. To them, Polaris (the Pole Star) is fixed at the center of a "dome" or celestial vault and has never moved, nor will it ever move from there. This stance creates a direct clash with history and observable astronomy for three main reasons: 1. The Problem with Ancient Records (like Dendera) As mentioned earlier, the Temple of Hathor in Dendera or the Pyramids of Giza themselves are aligned with a north where the pole star was Thuban (in Draco), not Polaris. The reality: Ancient astronomers (Greek, Egyptian, Mayan) meticulously recorded how the stars changed positions over the centuries. Hipparchus of Nicaea formalized the discovery of precession in the 2nd century BCE. The flat-Earth contradiction: If the Earth were flat and Polaris had always been fixed at the center of the dome, the alignments of ancient Egyptian temples would today point to empty space instead of perfectly reflecting the position of Draco during that era. 2. How They Attempt to "Explain" It When confronted with the fact that constellations slowly shift positions over centuries, flat-Earthers usually resort to alternative theories without mathematical backing: They argue that the entire sky is a mechanical apparatus (like a clock) that has complex "cycles" independent of the Earth. Some claim that ancient historical records are "falsified" or misinterpreted by modern science to cover up the supposed truth. 3. The Collapse of the Model in the Southern Hemisphere Denying precession is only one part of their issue with the stars. The biggest challenge for flat-Earthers is not Polaris, but the southern sky: In the Southern Hemisphere, there is an equivalent point called the Celestial South Pole (near the Southern Cross constellation and the star Sigma Octantis). All southern stars rotate clockwise around that fixed point. On a flat-Earth map (where the south is an outer ring of ice), it is geometrically impossible for two observers in Chile and Australia to look south at the same time and see the exact same center of stellar rotation. The denial of precession is a clear example of how, to maintain a fixed belief, one must discard thousands of years of nautical, architectural, and astronomical observations shared by all human civilizations. Would you be interested in analyzing how ancient sailors used this stellar shift to navigate, or would you prefer to look at another geometric contradiction of the dome model?
