One of the most loved Psalms of the Bible is Psalm 23. In it, David speaks of fellowship with God in the daily experiences of life. He finds God preparing a table for him which speaks of nourishment and fellowship. A table signifies satisfaction. It also signifies fellowship, a kind of oneness. There is a saying like this: “The crown of fellowship is eating together.” The feasts of Israel are times of fellowship around a meal. Jesus often reclined with people around the table. The New Testament commands us as Believers to show hospitality to everyone, but especially to those who cannot return the favor. According to the predictions of the Bible there is yet a great time of fellowship still ahead at the marriage supper of the Lamb. In the experience of Israel, we see that in the place of meeting, the Tabernacle, the LORD designed a table, THE TABLE OF FELLOWSHIP. The description is given to us in Exodus 25:23-30.
