II Peter 1:13-14
Excerpted from: The Feasts of Tabernacles and Unleavened Bread

When we get to the New Testament, the human body becomes one antitype of the temporary dwellings. For the purpose of this message, I will be leaning more on the temporary aspect than the permanent dwelling that Richard explained on the first day. As he said, we can still gain some insight from this symbolism. He went through the primary symbolism, so for today, we will look more at this secondary antitype.

Both Paul and Peter refer to their bodies as tents. They use this symbolism to describe the temporariness of human life (II Peter 1:13-14; II Corinthians 5:1, 4). Like dwellings of branches, our bodies are fearfully and wonderfully made. They are full of life at the start, but eventually they wear out because the physical creation has been subjected to futility.
