Definition: "Almirah" appears in several biblical references. The specific verse reference isn't easily accessible, but historically, it's likely associated with a place or structure that served as a sanctuary for religious rituals during times of great political or religious tension. In general, "Almirah" has been used metaphorically to refer to an altar where sacrifices and offerings were made in reverence. It also might be associated with the practice of holding the tabernacle, which was the main dwelling place of God for several centuries after Jesus's death. The Hebrew term "almirah" means "altar," referring to this place as a symbol of God's presence. Here are some key points from various biblical verses about "Almirah": - In the Book of Exodus (Numbers 28:14-30), God commands the Israelites not to defile any part of the tabernacle or altar that they may offer their sacrifices. Instead, He says "I will make an altars for you in the place where I have placed My name among all living things." - In the Book of Leviticus (Lev 24:13), God commands Moses to remove the tabernacle from Mount Sinai and to build a new one with a higher altar. This was to be the place where He would provide sacrifices for the Israelites, not just their offerings. - In the Book of Daniel (Daniel 9:6), it is mentioned that God will have His tabernacle or "Almirah" (Taberah) raised up as a place where worshipers are welcomed to worship and sacrifice. This suggests that a new place for religious services would be established in heaven, beyond what God had previously commanded them. - In the Book of Isaiah (Isa 53:10), it is mentioned that the "Almirah" will be a place for worship of the God of Israel, as well as an offering place for sacrifices. In summary, the word "almirah" in biblical references refers to a designated area or structure where religious rituals and sacrifices were performed by God's people during times of great political and religious tension. It often symbolized the presence of God's name in a sacred setting.
