The Door

The Door (Ex 27:16) God allowed man an entrance.

Ex 27:16 "For the gate of the court there shall be a screen thirty feet long, woven of blue, and purple, and scarlet thread, and fine woven linen made by a weaver. It shall have four pillars and four sockets.

Only One Entrance- No one could enter by any other way except this gate. Any Israelite approaching the Tabernacle leading his sacrifice and desiring atonement knew that there was no way to reach the bronze altar but through the gate that faced east.
