The Hebrews writer pulls out another big word: covenant.
The true High Priest
Hebrews 8:1-5
The new covenant is superior
Hebrews 8:6-13
Description of the Tabernacle
Hebrews 9:1-10
Its fulfillment in Christ
Hebrews 9:11-22
Christ’s sufficient sacrifice
Hebrews 9:23-28, 10:1-18
True worship
Hebrews 10:19-21
Rejection of Christ fatal
Hebrews 10:26-31
The believer’s reward
Hebrews 10:32-39
Examples of faith
Hebrews 11:1-10
Now the writer to the Hebrews goes over the agreement that God made with the Jews - the covenant. He gave them a pattern for a tabernacle, and the Temples were built along similar lines. The writer is telling us that these were copies of a heaven;y reality, and that there is a new and better covenant in Jesus.
Then he says a daring thing - that we can wander in to the Holy of Holies, the most sacred place in the Tabernacle or the Temple, walk freely in because Jesus has opened the way for us. Now Jew would dare do that.
This we have to take on faith, and so he begins listing the heroes of the past who have demonstrated faith. He’s leading up to something, and what it is, we’ll find out tomorrow.
