'Place' in the Bible

taking a place by so much better than the angels, as he inherits a name more excellent than they.

For to which of the angels did God ever say, "You are my son! Today I have fathered you"? And in another place he says, "I will be his father and he will be my son."

Now of the things we are saying this is the chief point: We have such a high priest, who has taken his place at the right hand of God's high seat of glory in heaven,

and ministers in the Holy place and in the true tabernacle which not man, but the Lord pitched.

The place where they serve is a sketch and shadow of the heavenly sanctuary, just as Moses was warned by God as he was about to complete the tabernacle. For he says, "See that you make everything according to the design shown to you on the mountain."

For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second.

Behind the second curtain was the part of the tent called the Most Holy Place,

Above it were the cherubim of glory overshadowing the place of atonement. (We cannot discuss these things in detail now.)

The Holy Spirit was indicating by this that the way into the Most Holy Place had not yet been disclosed as long as the first part of the tent was still standing.

Because they are only rules of the flesh, of meats and drinks and washings, which have their place till the time comes when things will be put right.

For Christ did not enter a holy place made with hands, a mere copy of the true one, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us;

Nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest entereth into the holy place every year with blood of others;

Then he said, See, I have come to do your pleasure. He took away the old order, so that he might put the new order in its place.

And every priest takes his place at the altar day by day, doing what is necessary, and making again and again the same offerings which are never able to take away sins.

By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither he went.

They were stoned, they were sawn asunder, they were tried by temptation, they were killed with the sword. They went from place to place in sheepskins or goatskins, enduring want, oppression and cruelty.
