History of the Mishkan

Hi,

"When the Jews entered the land, they established the Mishkan (tabernacle) in Gilgal for fourteen years, while they conquered and divided up the land. From there they went to Shiloh, where they built a stone building and spread the roof curtains of the Mishkan atop the building; there was no roof. The Mishkan stood in Shiloh for 369 years. When Eli died, it was destroyed, and they came to Nov and built a sanctuary there. When Shemuel died that was destroyed, and they came to Givon and built a sanctuary there. From Givon they came to the Eternal House; the days of Nov and Givon were 75 years."

(Rambam, Mishneh Torah, Hilchot Beit haBechirah 1:2)

המצפה לישועה,
Mordechai
