Hebrews 9:3-14

3BehindG3326 1the secondG1208 veilG2665 there was a 2tabernacleG4633 which is calledG3004 the 3HolyG40 of HoliesG40, 4havingG2192 a goldenG5552 45altarG2369 of incenseG2369 and 6the arkG2787 of the covenantG1242 coveredG4028 on allG3840 sidesG3840 with goldG5553, in whichG3739 was 7a goldenG5552 jarG4713 holdingG2192 the mannaG3131, and 8Aaron’sG2 rodG4464 which buddedG985, and 9the tablesG4109 of the covenantG1242; 5and aboveG5231 it were the 10cherubimG5502 of gloryG1391 11overshadowingG2683 the mercyG2435 seatG2435; but of theseG3739 thingsG3739 we cannotG3756 nowG3568 speakG3004 in detailG3313.

6NowG1161 when theseG3778 thingsG3778 have been soG3779 preparedG2680, the priestsG2409 12are continuallyG1223G3956 enteringG1524 the 13outerG4413 14tabernacleG4633 performingG2005 the divineG2999 worshipG2999, 7but into 15the secondG1208, onlyG3441 16the highG749 priestG749 enters 17onceG530 a yearG1763, 18not withoutG5565 taking bloodG129, whichG3739 he 19offersG4374 for himselfG1438 and for the 2021sinsG51 of the peopleG2992 committed in ignoranceG51. 822The HolyG40 SpiritG4151 is signifyingG1213 thisG3778, 23that the wayG3598 into the holyG40 placeG40 has not yetG3380 been disclosedG5319 while the 24outerG4413 tabernacleG4633 is stillG2089 standingG4714, 9whichG3748 is a symbolG3850 for the presentG1764 timeG2540. AccordinglyG2596 25bothG5037 giftsG1435 and sacrificesG2378 are offeredG4374 which 26cannotG1410G3361 makeG5048 the worshiperG3000 perfectG5048 in conscienceG4893, 10since they relate onlyG3440 to 27foodG1033 and 28drinkG4188 and variousG1313 29washingsG909, 30regulationsG1345 for the 31bodyG4561 imposedG1945 untilG3360 32a timeG2540 of reformationG1357.

11But when ChristG5547 appearedG3854 as a 33highG749 priestG749 of the 34goodG18 thingsG18 35to comeG1096, He entered throughG1223 36the greaterG3173 and moreG5046 perfectG5046 37tabernacleG4633, 38not madeG5499 with handsG5499, that is to say, 39not of thisG3778 creationG2937; 12and not throughG1223 40the bloodG129 of goatsG5131 and calvesG3448, but 41throughG1223 His ownG2398 bloodG129, He 42enteredG1525 the holyG40 placeG40 43onceG2178 for allG2178, 44having obtainedG2147 45eternalG166 redemptionG3085. 13For ifG1487 46the bloodG129 of goatsG5131 and bullsG5022 and 47the ashesG4700 of a heiferG1151 sprinklingG4472 thoseG3588 who have been defiledG2840 sanctifyG37 for the 48cleansingG2514 of the fleshG4561, 14howG4214 muchG4214 moreG3123 will 49the bloodG129 of ChristG5547, whoG3739 throughG1223 5051the eternalG166 SpiritG4151 52offeredG4374 HimselfG1438 withoutG299 blemishG299 to GodG2316, 53cleanseG2511 54your conscienceG4893 from 55deadG3498 worksG2041 to serveG3000 56the livingG2198 GodG2316?
