Hebrews 9:8-12

8By this the Holy Spirit indicates that the way into the holy places is not yet opened as long as the first section is still standing

9(which is symbolic for the present age). According to this arrangement, gifts and sacrifices are offered that cannot perfect the conscience of the worshiper,

10but deal only with food and drink and various washings, regulations for the body imposed until the time of reformation.

11But when Christ appeared as a high priest of the good things that have come, then through the greater and more perfect tent (not made with hands, that is, not of this creation)

12he entered once for all into the holy places, not by means of the blood of goats and calves but by means of his own blood, thus securing an eternal redemption.
