“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 (it took seven years), all of them gathered at Shiloh and the priests set up the tabernacle there, shifting it from Gilgal. In Shiloh it remained as the centre of worship for 369 years right through the book of Judges and Ruth. Shiloh means being whole and healthy, sound and secure and in abundance. Here Hannah prayed for her miracle son Samuel, and then dedicated him. Samuel was the first of the prophets of Israel. In the new covenant, Jesus is our Shiloh and we are the temple of the Holy Ghost, born of the Spirit and joined one spirit with the Lord. Shiloh is in us. Thank You Lord, Hallelujah!
