The Reverend Archer Ellsworth examines the nature of the tabernacle, a small and portable earthen dwelling which housed the Israelites during the Biblical era. A portable yet distinctive dwelling, the tabernacle would accompany the Jews through their exodus from Egypt, and into the lands of Canaan. For the most part, the tabernacle is mentioned in the Book of Exodus, which details its physical characteristics and purpose as mobile housing and a gathering place for the transitory Jewish peoples. Most vitally, God ordered Moses to remove adornments from the tabernacle while continuing to use it throughout his people's journeys in the unsettled countryside and into the Promised Land. Ellsworth Archer (1863 - 1944) was an author, preacher and committed Christian who spent his life in study of the Bible. Working in San Joaquin County, California for most of his adulthood, he was active in the church community of the state and would assist in the establishment of multiple churches.
A brilliant scientist and his former student (and financial benefactor) build a rocket and travel to Mars, where they find a civilization identical to that of Biblical-era Egypt.
