Thematic Bible: Holy place


Thematic Bible



And Yahweh said to Moses, "Tell your brother Aaron [that] he should not enter at any time into the sanctuary {behind} the curtain {in front of} the atonement cover that [is] on the ark, so that he might not die, because I appear in the cloud over the atonement cover. "Aaron must enter the sanctuary with this: {a young bull} as a sin offering and a ram as a burnt offering.

And Aaron will bear the names of the {Israelites} in the breast piece of judgment on his heart, when he comes to the sanctuary, for a remembrance before Yahweh continually.


And Aaron and his sons must eat the remainder of it; they must eat it [as] unleavened bread in a holy place--in the tent of assembly's courtyard they must eat it.


The priest {who offers the sin offering} must eat it in a holy place--in the tent of assembly's courtyard.

Any male among the priests may eat it; it [is] {a most holy thing}. But any sin offering [from] which {some of} its blood is brought to the tent of assembly to make atonement in the sanctuary must not be eaten; it must be burned in the fire.'"



And after the second curtain [was] a tent called the holy of holies,


And he made the curtain of blue and purple and crimson [yarns] and finely twisted linen, [the] work of a craftsman; he made it [with] cherubim. And he made for it four acacia pillars, and he overlaid them with gold, [with] their gold hooks, and he cast for them four silver bases.


"And you will make a curtain of blue and purple and crimson [yarns] and finely twisted linen, [the] work of a skilled craftsman; he will make it [with] cherubim. And you will put it on four acacia pillars overlaid with gold [with] their gold hooks on four silver bases. And you will put the curtain under the clasps, and you will bring the ark of the testimony there inside the curtain, and the curtain will separate for you between the holy and the {most holy place}.
