The Sanctuary and Tabernacle represents YAH with us (Immanuel). It also prophetically represents Messiah and what month He should be born. Notice that Ex 19:1 says the third month YAH came down to talk to Israel and give them His commandments. This conversation continue into Exodus 24:16-18 we are told Moses goes up into the mountain 40 days and 40 nights.
They would now be in the forth month when YAH in Exodus 25:1 instructs Israel to make him a sanctuary to put the tabernacle into. In the 4th month Messiah would be conceived.

In the third month, when the children of Israel were gone forth out of the land of Egypt, the same day came they into the wilderness of Sinai.
18 And Moses went into the midst of the cloud, and gat him up into the mount: and Moses was in the mount forty days and forty nights.
And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, that they bring me an offering: of every man that giveth it willingly with his heart ye shall take my offering.
3 And this is the offering which ye shall take of them; gold, and silver, and brass,
4 And blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen, and goats’ hair,
5 And rams’ skins dyed red, and badgers’ skins, and shittim wood,
6 Oil for the light, spices for anointing oil, and for sweet incense,
7 Onyx stones, and stones to be set in the ephod, and in the breastplate.
8 And let them make me a sanctuary; that I may dwell among them.
9 According to all that I shew thee, after the pattern of the tabernacle, and the pattern of all the instruments thereof, even so shall ye make it.
And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
2 On the first day of the first month shalt thou set up the tabernacle of the tent of the congregation.
