Showbread Institute
The Showbread Institute[1] (in Hebrew - Machon Lechem Hapanim מכון לחם הפנים) is a research institute dedicated to researching the biblical Showbread (also called Shewbread, Face Bread.[2]).
Founded in 2018 and located in Karnei Shomron, Israel, the Showbread Institute is run by Eliezer Meir (Les) Saidel,[3] a Temple researcher and master baker.
Using multiple modern scientific disciplines, coupled with an in-depth study of scripture and commentaries, the ShowBread Institute is attempting to reconstruct the biblical Showbread and uncover its secrets and hidden symbolism.
