John 7:1-2
After these things Jesus walked in Galilee: for he would not walk in Jewry, because the Jews sought to kill him. Now the Jews' feast of tabernacles was at hand.
2nd Peter 1:14
"Yea I think it meet, as long as I am in this Tabernacle, to stir you up by putting you in remembrance; Knowing that shortly I must put off this Tabernacle, even as our Lord Jesus Christ hath shewed me."
He was talking about his decease. He knew that his tabernacle (Body) was a temporary Holy temple, a temporary home in his wilderness sojourn to the promised land. Just as Christ had shown Him when He died and put off the temple or tabernacle, and ascended up to God. Flesh and blood cannot inherit the Kingdom of God! The man of God is a Spirit, and he's not at home in this body of flesh, for he longs to be in his real home which is in the consummation. The Kingdom of God we dwell in spiritually while we inhabitate earth is just the temporary habitation. God marvelously ties all these truths together very neatly in His Holy Word.
2nd Corinthians 5:1
"For we know that if our earthly house of this Tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven:"
That's what the Israelites coming out of bondage to Egypt and their wilderness journey in tabernacles, was pointing to. Those temporary houses (tabernacles) were a type. As Israel had to dwell in temporary tabernacles, so does the Israel of God in their flesh. but not alone, for God tabernacles with us. He dwells within us, and we in Him. He has fulfilled his prophesy of tabernacles.
