In the Old Testament, God wanted the Isrealites to be close to Him. So He had Moses build the Trinity a tabernacle, which means dwelling place. Only the Levites could go into the Tabernacle. They had different jobs, but the priests interceded for Israel and would ask God to forgive Israel. But when Jesus was on the cross, the veil was ripped in half, and now we can 'go into the tabernacle'. We can talk to God on our own.

We genuflect in the presence of Jesus at the tabernacle, or before the sacred host when exposed, as Catholics believe this is the real presence of Jesus. Catholics bow in front of the altar, since it a consecrated sign of Jesus,but genuflect when Jesus is present there in the bread and wine, or at the tabernacle, where the body of Jesus in the form of bread is kept for distribution to the sick.
The activities and rituals in the tabernacle, such as the sacrificial system and the role of the high priest, foreshadowed Jesus Christ's ultimate sacrifice and mediating role. The tabernacle served as a dwelling place for God's presence among His people, paralleling how Jesus embodies God among humanity. The sacrificial lamb, which was offered for the atonement of sin, symbolizes Christ as the "Lamb of God" who takes away the sins of the world. In this way, the tabernacle's practices pointed to the fulfillment of God's redemptive plan through Jesus.
