Nowhere in the Bible is there such a detailed picture of the LORD Jesus Christ than is found in the Mosaic Tabernacle. Among all the books written by Reverend Hicks, none is as important or as far-reaching in influence as this book, for it presents the Stature, the Image, the Perfection of the Son of God that all believers in Jesus Christ must strive to attain. The Mosaic Tabernacle is God's blueprint of His Only Begotten Son in Whom God put all Wisdom, Understanding, and Knowledge. By studying the types and shadows of all that God put in the first Tabernacle, and also by studying the earthly ministry of the High Priest, we gain a greater understanding of the heavenly things that are found in the Living Tabernacle of the LORD Jesus Christ, the second and more perfect Tabernacle, and His ministry. He is our spiritual High Priest, after the eternal order of Melchizedek, and He is the most Precious Gem that God ever gave to mankind. Thousands of this book are in print. It has been translated into many languages so that its message reaches around the world to acquaint people with Jesus in a greater way. It is also the most detailed study of the literal Mosaic Tabernacle in print.

Women of African Ancestry Shine With the Beauty, Value, and Uniqueness of Precious Jewels. If any race of women should recognize that their value is far above rubies, pearls, and sapphires, says author Terri McFaddin, it is those of African ancestry. Like precious gemstones formed within the earth, we have endured hard times, the heat of adversity, and intense pressures, and have come out of the fire as a rare and beautiful treasure. We have made tremendous progress in the struggle for racial equality. Yet many women of color do not fully understand their true worth and God-given potential. Exploring vital biblical truths, Sapphires and Other Precious Jewels empowers us to recognize and fully embrace the qualities that make us precious, valuable, and strong–sapphires of great price. Explore the Treasured Qualities of Black Women Through the Twelve Jewels in the Breastplate of the High Priest. As you examine the scriptural principles drawn from Exodus 28, you’ll discover, perhaps for the first time, that your beauty is both natural and spiritual, that God created and affirms your beauty and uniqueness, and that he calls you to demonstrate and celebrate the extraordinary ways in which you are fearfully and wonderfully made.
