Image Learning about the Mishkan in Parashas Terumah and Tetzaveh is very challenging especially if there is lacking a three dimensional model of the mishkan. But we have found a valuable resource to help us along the way.

 

Here comes Artscroll's "The Mishkan" software which is the best out there that helps visualize the intricate details of the construction of the Mishkan. A picture speaks a thousand words as the saying goes.
