Exodus 40:34-35
Excerpted from: The Covenants, Grace and Law (Part 13)The glory of God is, first of all, a reference to the infusion of light that appeared above and in the tabernacle when God took up residence there from time to time.
That is to what Paul is referring in Romans 5. That gives a starting point for those who understand what he is talking about here—the glory of God. What we have to do is update this, that is, bring it up into the time of Christianity. God was dwelling in the tabernacle, a type of the church. That light was a symbol of the Divine Nature emanating from there because God was present. The implication in Paul's writing in Romans 5 is that the Christian's hope is that he shall be (in an eternally growing degree) a possessor of the same glory.
Exodus 40:34-36
Excerpted from: Examples of Divine JusticeThen we find that the Fire was over it at night. So we have the erection of the Tabernacle, and God symbolically taking up residence within it. It was as though it was His house.
