Leviticus 26:11

11 I will put my tabernacle among you, and I will not reject you,

Leviticus 26:11 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 26:11

And I will set my tabernacle amongst you
Which God had directed them to make, and they had made, and also erected; but here he promises to fix and establish it among them, that so it might continue as a place for the public worship of him, and where he would take up his residence, and grant them his presence; so the Targum of Jonathan,

``I will put the Shechinah of my glory among you:''
and my soul shall not abhor you;
though in themselves, and because of their sins, loathsome and abominable; the Targums of Onkelos and Jonathan are,
``my Word shall not abhor you;''
and the whole may have respect to Christ, the Word made flesh, and tabernacling among them; the tabernacle being a type and emblem of the human nature of Christ, in which the fulness of the Godhead dwells bodily, and is the true tabernacle which God pitched and not man, ( John 1:14 ) ( Colossians 1:9 ) ( Hebrews 8:2 ) .

Leviticus 26:11 In-Context

9 "'I will turn toward you, make you productive, increase your numbers and uphold my covenant with you.
10 You will eat all you want from last year's harvest and throw out what remains of the old to make room for the new.
11 I will put my tabernacle among you, and I will not reject you,
12 but I will walk among you and be your God, and you will be my people.
13 I am ADONAI your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, so that you would not be their slaves. I have broken the bars of your yoke, so that you can walk upright.
