Here is a type and shadow that has to do with the shewbread, and the body of Christ being broken.  I wrote this several years ago, and it may be hard to follow, but I think it is pretty cool.

It is written in 1 Corinthians 12:27 “Now ye are "the body of Christ", and members in particular.” And it is written in 1 Corinthians 10:17 "For we being many are"one bread", and "one body": for we are all partakers of that "one bread."

Have you pondered how we like the bread of His body were also meant to be humbled and "broken" in order to feed the multitudes?
Jesus showed this in his own body…. “Jesus took bread, and blessed, and"brake it", and gave to them, and said, Take, eat: this is "my body.”
 

Jesus Christ is that Manna come down from heaven, the very Bread of Life, which is God’s Word of Life made flesh in Jesus. And if we are enjoined "in" Christ by the Baptism of the Holy Spirit, we also become bone of His bone, and flesh of His flesh as written….Ephesians 5:30-32

And if Christ truly dwells "in" you, and you"in" Christ, then you also become a part of that "body" having the Living Word of God dwelling "in" you. But like the Lord showed in His own body, we too are to become a "living sacrifice", as we too are to be "humbled" and "broken" by the Lord our God.

Peter learned this breaking and sifting process first hand after he denied the Lord 3 times, but was later converted by the renewing and anointing of the Holy Spirit.

Jesus would later ask Peter if he loved Him 3 times, which had to break Peter’s heart, as I know it would of mine. But what was Jesus’ reply to Peter, after Peter told Jesus “you know I love you” Jesus said feed my sheep. And of course Jesus was not talking about feeding livestock here but rather feeding the flock of the Lord His words.

So how did Peter, and how do we also feed His sheep? We take that bread which the Lord has blessed, and broken and given to us; even that Living Bread which dwells in us; and so we speak His words He has given us to feed the multitudes. 

There is a deep mystery shown in the numbers in the feeding of the multitudes by Jesus, which I will not get into right now. But after the multitudes had come unto desert place the disciples asked Jesus to send them away for they had nothing to eat. But what really tickled me in this story was Jesus’ reply to his disciples saying, “you give them something to eat.” 

Now I’m sure the disciples had no idea what Jesus was really talking about in the "spiritual sense" at the time, or even the true "symbolism" of the miracle He was about to perform. But we see the same sign of Jesus taking the bread and blessing it, and then the "breaking" of the loaves of bread. Then we see Jesus giving that broken bread to his disciples in order to feed the multitudes.

In the 2 separate feedings the Lord would use a total of 12 loaves. These 12represent the “shewbread,”(showbread) or hollowed bread placed on the pure table in the OT; (which was only lawful for the priesthood to eat.) There were 12 loaves total, placed in 2 rows, 6 in each row…..

Leviticus 24:5-9 “And thou shalt take fine flour, and bake "twelve cakes" thereof: two tenth deals shall be in one cake.6 And thou shalt set them in "two rows", six on a row, upon the pure table before the Lord.
7 And thou shalt put pure frankincenseupon each row, that it may be on the bread "for a memorial," even an offering made by fire unto the Lord.8 Every sabbath he shall set it in order before the Lord continually, “being taken from the children of Israel” by an "everlasting covenant."
9 And it shall be Aaron's and his sons'; and they shall eat it in the holy place: for it is most holy unto him of the offerings of the Lord made by fire by a perpetual statute.”

Now what is also interesting is how the word showbread or shewbread ( H6440) is used in the Hebrew, and it’s meaning, like the bread of "His presence".

The KJV translates Strongs H6440 in the following manner: before (1,137x), face(390x), presence (76x),  countenance (30x), from (27x), person (21x), of (20x), ...me(18x), , ...him (16x), open (13x).  

This opens up my mind to a lot of scriptures concerning seeing the Lords face, countenance and glory, and feeling His presence. 
 

Like the Lords "presence" dwelling in the midst of his people, which is Christ "in us", the Manna of God come down from heaven, the Bread of Life= the Word of Life. What is also interesting is the mention of putting on the "pure oil"and frankincense on the bread for a"memorial", just as Jesus said the Holy Spirit (anointing Oil) would bring all His words to your "remembrance" (for a memorial) which is also for a “everlasting covenant,” as the Lord said His Spirit would be with us “forever.”

But by that same Living Manna, which is "the presence" of the Living Word of God in us (Christ in us) we too can also feed the multitudes that same Bread of Life. Which if a man receives and eats by faith, he also shall live forever.(everlasting covenant)
John 6:51 “I am the "living bread" which came down from heaven: if any man eat of "this bread", he shall live "for ever": and "the bread" that I will give is "my flesh", (the Word was made flesh) which I will give for the life of the world.

Often in the OT when making an offering with bread, the offering was to be"broken" as it was also with many of the animal sacrifices, which were to be cut into "pieces" symbolizing "the body broken".

Exodus 29:17 “And thou shalt cut the ram in pieces, and wash the inwards of him, and his legs, and put them unto his pieces, and unto his head.”

Leviticus 1:6 “And he shall flay the burnt offering, and cut it into his pieces.”

Leviticus 2:6 “Thou shalt part it in pieces, and pour oil thereon: it is a meat offering.”

Leviticus 6:21 “In a pan it shall be made with oil; and when it is baken, thou shalt bring it in: and the baken pieces of the meat offering shalt thou offer for a sweet savour unto the Lord.”

Also the offering was to be anointed with"oil and frankincense" symbolizing the anointing oil of the Holy Spirit....

Leviticus 2:1-10 “And when any will offer a meat offering unto the Lord, his offering shall be of fine flour; and he shall pour oil upon it, and put frankincense thereon:
2 And he shall bring it to Aaron's sons the priests: and he shall take thereout his handful of the flour thereof, and of "the oil" thereof, with all the "frankincense" thereof; and the priest shall burn "the memorial "of it upon the altar, to be an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the Lord:"

Now notice the "remnant" that remained was to be for the High priest and His sons....

3 And the "remnant" of the meat offeringshall be Aaron's and his sons': it is a thing "most holy" of the offerings of the Lord made by fire.

Also notice the bread was to be unleavened and anointed with oil....

4 And if thou bring an oblation of a meat offering baken in the oven, it shall be "unleavened" cakes of fine flour mingled “with oil,”or "unleavened "wafers "anointed with oil.” 5 And if thy oblation be a meat offering baken in a pan, it shall be of fine flour "unleavened", mingled with “oil.”
6 Thou shalt "part it in pieces", and pour "oil" thereon: it is a meat offering.
7 And if thy oblation be a meat offering baken in the fryingpan, it shall be made of fine flour “with oil.”
8 And thou shalt bring the meat offering that is made of these things unto the Lord: and when it is presented unto the priest, he shall bring it unto the altar.
9 And the priest shall take from the meat offering a "memorial" thereof, and shall burn it upon the altar: it is an offering made by fire, of a "sweet savour "unto the Lord.
10 And that which is "left" (the remnant that remains) of the meat offering "shall be Aaron's and his sons': it is a thing most holy of the offerings of the Lord made by fire.”

You can see in the "similitude" of this offering what the Holy Spirit was "signifying" in the feeding of the multitudes by Jesus, when "the remnant"that was "left" was gathered back up by the disciples of the Lord.”

But the body of Christ was meant to be "broken" in order to feed the multitudes. 

Matthew 21:44 “And whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be "broken": but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder."

So fall upon the Rock children, and be “broken”(humbled,) so that the Rock doesn't fall down on you.😊

Be good and be blessed

Very good post brother, there is nothing I could even add to that, I did actually have a few questions for you that maybe you can help me with but I would prefer to take those up with you by PM if you do not mind.

God richly bless you

So fall upon the Rock children, and be “broken”(humbled,) so that the Rock doesn't fall down on you.😊

Be good and be blessed

I will add this insight into the meaning of the “shew-bread”

The “shew”-bread was to “show,”or to“reveal” something to the Lords anointed priesthood.

Notice what Jesus says….

Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will ((shew you))things to come.

He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall ((shew it))unto you.
All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that he shall take of mine, and shall ((shew it))unto you.
These things have I spoken unto you in proverbs: but the time cometh, when I shall no more speak unto you in proverbs, but I shall ((shew you)) plainly of the Father.”
 
So it is by the Holy Spirit that the Son will “show us” the many mysteries of the Kingdom.  This is the “hidden manna” or the “hidden wisdom” as Paul called it.
 
And Like Paul said, these mysteries are “revealed” to us by the Holy Spirit.
 
But God hath ((revealed them))unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.
Which in other ages was not made known unto the sons of men, as it is now ((revealed))unto his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit;
 
Peace and God bless

Notice the connection of the Lord breaking bread with His disciples, and their eyes being opened to understand…

Luke 24:30-45

King James Version

30 And it came to pass, as he sat at meat with them, he took bread, and blessed it, and brake, and gave to them.

31 And “their eyes were opened,”and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight.

32 And they said one to another, Did not our heart burn within us, while he talked with us by the way, and while “he opened to us the scriptures?”

33 And they rose up the same hour, and returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven gathered together, and them that were with them,

34 Saying, The Lord is risen indeed, and hath appeared to Simon.

35 And they told what things were done in the way, and how “he was known of them in breaking of bread.”

36 And as they thus spake, Jesus himself stood in the midst of them, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you.

37 But they were terrified and affrighted, and supposed that they had seen a spirit.

38 And he said unto them, Why are ye troubled? and why do thoughts arise in your hearts?

39 Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have.

40 And when he had thus spoken, he shewed them his hands and his feet.

41 And while they yet believed not for joy, and wondered, he said unto them, Have ye here any meat?

42 And they gave him a piece of a broiled fish, and of an honeycomb.

43 And he took it, and did eat before them.

44 And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me.

45 Then “opened he their understanding,” that they might understand the scriptures,”

Jesus said in ….

Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will “sup with him, and he with me.”

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
