Shekinah means 'God's divine presence'.

After God told Moses to lead the Israelites out of Egypt in search of the promised land (Israel), he also instructed him to build a tabernacle, a portable temple, which God would dwell within as they travelled. “It is a key belief in Judaism that God led the Jews out of Egypt.”
