And all thyine wood.—Errors respecting man’s inherent immortality. Thyine wood is a sweet‐smelling wood; wood is a symbol of human traditions. The sweetest of all human theories is the declaration that when a man dies he is not dead at all. (1 Cor. 3:12.) Very shortly men will begin to come back from the dead, “the last first” (Matt. 19:30; 20:16); and stories that they have been in some fabulous hell or in Heaven will be at a considerable discount. And all manner vessels of ivory.—Stories of death‐bed repentance and dreams, used to decorate unscriptural doctrines. Ivory was and is used in the harness of horses. It was also used to decorate beds. (Amos 6:4.) Horses symbolize teachings, and beds symbolize creed‐beds. The application fits, whichever way the symbol is applied.—Jer. 23:28. And all manner vessels of most precious wood.—Errors that appeal to the heart of the natural man.—1 Cor. 3:12. And of brass.—Copper; errors respecting the nature of man, created perfect and to be re‐created in the same likeness.—Gen. 1:31; Rev. 21:5. And Iron, [And marble].—Errors respecting the “iron rule” and when it is to be exercised.—Dan. 2:40; Rev. 2:27. 18:13. And cinnamon, and spice, and odours, and ointments.—Errors respecting the nature and work of the Holy Spirit. These principal spices represent things which go to make up the anointing which we receive to become priests and kings with Christ.

We have the understanding of all the knowledge received of God.”—Z. ’07‐349. And frankincense.—Errors respecting the kind of praise proper to offer. Much of the hymn‐book theology is bad. And wine.—Errors respecting our privilege of draining the Lord’s cup of sorrow now, that we may drink the cup of joy with Him hereafter.—Matt. 20:22; 26:27. And oil.—Errors with reference to the anointing of the Royal Priesthood.—Psa. 133:1‐3; 1 Pet. 2:5. And fine flour.—Errors as to why the true wheat are so repeatedly crushed, broken and sifted—until “nothing of earth is seen.” And wheat.—Errors as to who are the true wheat. A sister on her first service of Truth literature at a church door was asked by the pastor, “What are you doing around here?” Startled, the Sister replied, “I am looking for the wheat.” The pastor replied, with some anger, “Go away! There is no wheat here.” And beasts.—Cattle; errors as to the nature of sacrifices with which the Lord is pleased.—Psa. 66:15.
