The Bread and Table
"He made ten tables and placed them in the temple, five on the south side and five on the north." (2 Chronicles 4:8)
"Make a table of acacia wood--two cubits long, a cubit wide and a cubit and a half high. Overlay it with pure gold and make a gold molding around it. Also make around it a rim a hand-breadth wide and put a gold molding on the rim. Make four gold rings for the table and fasten them to the four corners, where the four legs are. The rings are to be close to the rim to hold the poles used in carrying the table. Make the poles of acacia wood, overlay them with gold and carry the table with them. And make its plates and dishes of pure gold, as well as its pitchers and bowls for the pouring out of offerings. Put the bread of the Presence on this table to be before me at all times." (Exodus 25:23-30)
"No one has seen the Father except the one who is from God; only he has seen the Father. I [Jesus] tell you the truth, he who believes has everlasting life. I [Jesus] am the bread of life." (John 6:46-48)
