He "that stretcheth out the heavens as a curtain, and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in."(Is.40:22)
God stretches it out from end to end for a purpose so it is the Fellowship of God with Man we look for at present; without this fellowship our access to it is impossible. So firstly we accept the volume of the tabernacle describes the fullness of Christ. Three heavens is rather internalised as it were, and set spiritual significance of the physical form, the numbers materials, colours in focus.
The tabernacle of Moses was made with ten curtains of fine twined linen, and blue, and purple, and scarlet; the ground of these curtains was fine linen, twined or doubled. Fine linen as applied to the church, signifies the clothing of the saints with the righteousness of Christ, "And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints./And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God." (Re.19:8-9). This blessedness is incorporated in the everlasting covenant.
Here is a quote, "there were four sorts in every thread, one thread of fine linen, and three of wool, and every thread was doubled six times; lo, the four sorts, when they were twined together, there were twenty four double to a thread;''which if so, must make a stuff of a very great consistence and stiffness". We shall come across the command number Four and the usage doubled as in the case of the curtain one the east side, "And thou shalt couple five curtains by themselves, and six curtains by themselves, and shalt double the sixth curtain in the forefront of the tabernacle." This doubling is repeated on the breastplate of the high priest so significance of it cannot be coincidental. Grace and truth insisted upon whosoever enters therein. Grace and truth came by Jesus Christ
