recorded by Ezekiel as eight cubits. Yeshua is the entrance or way to GOD and the number eight speaks of a fresh start or a new beginning. As seven is the completion of a matter, the number eight perfects it. The seventh day brings to an end a week, while the eighth starts its cycle all over again.

The posts located by the entrance are symbolically speaking of Yeshua Himself, and the measurement was two cubits. The number two stands for witness, therefore, a testimony of the New Covenant or B’rit Chadashah of reconciliation between the Lord GOD and man. Proverbs 8:34-35 states: “Blessed is the man who listens to me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors. For whoever finds me finds life, and obtains favor from the LORD“(NKJV).

He is now reconciled to God and his understanding is legally enlightened by his Creator. Man is assigned the number six; being created on the sixth day in the image and likeness of God (Genesis 1:26-28). It must be stressed here that man is not GOD, neither will he someday be God, but he is the symbol of his perfect unity with GOD. Because
