“And the whole congregation of the children of Israel assembled together at Shiloh, and set up the tabernacle of the congregation there. And the land was subdued before them.”
Joshua 18:1 KJV
After the Israelites had conquered the land, all of them gathered at Shiloh, and the priests set up the tabernacle. Shiloh means wholeness, secure or abundance. After seven years of conquest, the Israelites moved the tabernacle that Moses had constructed in the wilderness, from Gilgal to Shiloh, where it remained for 369 years. Shiloh was the ancient pre-Jerusalem capital of Israel and the origins of the prophets can be traced back here. Shiloh is where Hannah prayed to have a son and then dedicated Samuel to God. Samuel was the first of the prophets of Israel. Jesus is our Shiloh as Jacob prophesied before dying and the sceptre will not depart from Him. Jesus is the origin of all prophecy as He is the Aleph and the Tav and has finished the work of the Cross and now all things are being subdued under His feet! Amen!
