Today's verse gives us a vision of the layout of Israel's camp in the desert, along with a lesson for our lives. First, the Tabernacle was located in the center of the camp, serving as a reminder that God is our focal point. The remaining tribes, beginning with the Levites, surrounded the Tabernacle. Each tribe had its own flag, proudly bearing an insignia representative of the tribe's unique character. This contains a lesson for our lives. God is our unifying central focus, even as we tap into our own personal strengths. Eventually the Tabernacle came to rest for 369 years in Shiloh, where it served as the spiritual center of life. Today, modern Shiloh is a blossoming community filled with archeological treasures, but with a serious threat. The people of Shiloh have withstood horrendous terror attacks. Shiloh Israel Children's Fund heals the trauma of terrorism in the lives of innocent children who have lost loved ones or witnessed the horror of terrorism first-hand.
