According to the Hebrew Bible, the tabernacle (), also known as the Tent of the Congregation (, also Tent of Meeting), was the portable earthly dwelling of God used by the Israelites from the Exodus until the conquest of Canaan. Moses was instructed at Mount Sinai to construct and transport the tabernacle with the Israelites on their journey through the wilderness and their subsequent conquest of the Promised Land. Based on , biblical literalists hold that after either 480 (Masoretic version) or 440 years (Septuagint version), Solomon's Temple in Jerusalem superseded it as God's dwelling-place.
