February 1 :: Exodus 27-28; Matthew 21:1-22

God uses really specific materials in the sanctuary. It must be rich with meaning. But what does it mean? Here is some info, website listed below on meaning of colors ::

Scarlet (used for curtains/veils in the sanctuary) :: Jesus was obedient in giving up His life for the forgiveness of our sins...through His blood.
Purple (curtains) :: royalty.
Blue (curtains) :: to remind Israel of the 10 commandments.
White (curtains) :: Jesus' sacrifice made our sins white as snow.

Check out Lynda Peterson's article for more interpretations & info of the meaning of colors used in the sanctuary :: http://www.hisgloryringministries.com/tn-colorssanctuary-1.html

This is perhaps what the sanctuary might have looked like ::
