The Most Holy Place

Ezekiel 40:48~41:26
Angel has shown Ezekiel the inner sanctuary, it is "the Most Holy Place".
The structure surrounding the temple was built in ascending stages, so that the rooms widened as one went upward.
On the walls at regular intervals all around the inner ad outer sanctuary were carved cherubim and palm trees. Each cherubim had two faces: the face of a man toward the palm tree on one side and the face of a lion toward the palm tree on the other.


Why?
These Chapters were written some years after the rest, in 573BC. Ezekiel began with a vision of god in the pains of Babylon. It ends with a vision of God returning in glory to a new Temple - God in the midst of his people once again never to depart.
Faces of a man and a lion, seems like characters of Jesus Christ who is the king of kings and is a real man came to this earth.
How?
Jesus Christ is the Lord!
