Eidershiem's book is very good. There is also "Made According to the
Pattern", by C.W. Slemmings (Christian Literature Crusade, Ft
Washington AP.) which is packed full of detail.
The PPH used to carry my favorite, which I lost somewhere (probably
*borrowed* permanently) called, "The Tabernacle in the Wilderness". It
might have been by Bro. Ken. Reeves, but I can't rightly remember, nor
can I find my PPH catalog at the moment. Always meant to replace it.
One very popular reference (actually, a number of references) which I
will not use are those by Kevin Conner. Quite honest;y, I havent read
all the way through them (there is one extensivly on the Tabernacle,
and another on the Temple), but I have a prejudice. I have seen a
number of cases in which churches which left sound doctrine, the
church started to use Conner's books right away, as a sort of
transition. My suspicion is that they were favorites of the people who
got their ears, and then finally their hearts.
