Exo. 25:8-9 “And let them make me a sanctuary; that I may dwell among them. According to all that I shew thee, after the pattern of the tabernacle, and the pattern of all the instruments thereof, even so shall ye make it.”
The three parts of the Tabernacle of God namely the Outer Court, the Holy Place and the Holy of Holies represented the three dispensations of God’s dealing with mankind which are the dispensation of Law, Grace and the Millennial Reign.
The Outer Court had two sides that were 100 x 5 and two sides that were 50 x 5. The total area being 500 + 500 + 250 + 250 = 1500 square cubits. We know from history that the total period of the Law went for approximately 1500 years! On the other hand, the Holy Place has an area of 20 cubits x 10 cubits x 10 cubits (or a volume of 2000 cubic cubits). This represents the 2000 years of the church age or the Grace Period. And I’m sure you can guess the area of the Most Holy. Representing the Millennial Reign age it measures 10 x 10 x 10 cubits (1000 cubic cubits). We know from passages in Revelation 20 that Lord’s kingdom on earth will last 1000 years before the eternal order is inaugurated. Pretty amazing plan and design of God wouldn’t you say?
