A Symbol of 'God With Us'
One commentator, Matthew Henry, explains that the entire Tabernacle, including this beautifully crafted entrance screen, served as a visible testimony of God's love and His desire to dwell with His people. This physical structure powerfully foreshadows the ultimate 'Emmanuel' (God with us), Jesus Christ, who 'tabernacled among us' as the living Word (John 1:14).
