Moses' Tabernacle
It was around 1450 B.C. The Hebrews were taken into
Egyptian bondage for 430 years. God heard the cry of His
people and sent Moses to lead the Hebrews out of Egypt.
So Moses went as God instructed and after a series of
10 plagues the children of Israel were out of Egypt.
Moses led them through the Red Sea and after 3 months
they came to the wilderness of Sinai.
At Mount Sinai, God commanded Moses to come up the
mountain and gave him the law and commands and detail
instructions to build the Tabernacle.
The Tabernacle was a portable structure for the
Israelites to worship God.
See for yourself how the Tabernacle was put together.

Solomon's Temple
480 years after the Exodus, at around 970 B.C.,
Solomon began to build the first temple. He had spent 7
years building it. The Temple was a most spectacular and
expensive construction project. The entire interior,
even the floors, were all covered with pure gold.
Essentially, Solomon's Temple was similar to the
Tabernacle in its basic layout and design, but on a
larger scale. Solomon increased the number of sacred
vessels in use. For example, he built not one lampstand,
but 10, as well as 10 tables of showbread. He also
constructed 10 special carts to transport the basins
from place to place within the Temple. The molten sea, a
large reservoir of water resting on 12 oxen, was for the
priests to purify themselves before attending to their
sacred duties. The two bronze pillars standing at the
entrance were also a hallmark of Solomon's Temple.
This interactive 3D model renders Solomon's Temple.
It is carefully reconstructed even down to the most
minutest detail. Now after 2,500 years since the Temple
was destroyed, you can once again experience its glory
and beauty.

Noah's Ark
In the book of Genesis, God saw that the earth was
corrupt and filled with violence, and He was about to
destroy the earth with flood of waters. He instructed
Noah to build an ark to escape the Flood. Apart from
Noah's family, the Ark was intended to receive and keep
animals that were to fill the earth again and all the
food which was necessary for them.
It was around 2460 B.C. when the Flood came and
destroyed the world. After the Flood, the Ark rested on
Mount Ararat. For centuries, many expeditions had been
searching for the Ark on the mountain. But today you can
explore it right here.
