The table of showbread
The table of showbread speaks of Jesus the Bread of
Life. The table of showbread in Numbers 4:7 is called "the table of the
Presence." This is where the Presence of God begins to manifest through
the Word.
The frankincense which the priest sprays on the
bread has sweet fragrance but tastes bitter—this speaks of persecution in the
life of the believer who has been nourished by the Word.
