When was Jesus Born

WHEN WAS JESUS BORN?: M. M. NINAN
The problem here is that in all the Old Testament descriptions of the
tabernacle, the incense table is placed right in front of the opening of
the veil on its left side.
Ex. 30:6-7 Put the altar in front of the curtain that is before the ark of
the Testimony–before the atonement cover that is over the Testimony–
where I will meet with you. “Aaron must burn fragrant incense on the
altar every morning when he tends the lamps.
Here “in front of the curtain” does not define the place exactly. Most
descriptions give the impression that it was outside the veil inside the
assembly area along with the shew table and the candlebra.
Now look at the description of the tabernacle in Heb. 9
Heb 9:1- 7 Now the first covenant had regulations for worship and
also an earthly sanctuary. A tabernacle was set up. In its first room
were the lampstand, the table and the consecrated bread; this was
called the Holy Place. Behind the second curtain was a room called the
Most Holy Place, which had the golden alter of incense and the goldcovered
ark of the covenant. This ark contained the gold jar of manna,
Aaron’s staff that had budded, and the stone tablets of the covenant.
Above the ark were the cherubim of the Glory, overshadowing the
atonement cover. But we cannot discuss these things in detail now.
When everything had been arranged like this, the priests entered
regularly into the outer room to carry on their ministry. But only the
high priest entered the inner room, and that only once a year, and
