Some have supposed that the manhood of Christ is hereby represented, Hebrews 10:19, others have taken it for the ceremonial law: Ephesians 2:14. And others have thought it means the visible heaven. Acts 3:21
REFLECTIONS
May it be my happiness never to read or hear of this Jewish tabernacle, without always being enabled by the Holy Ghost, to connect with it and to keep in view that precious consideration, that we have such an high priest, (as the apostle speaks), who is a minister of the sanctuary and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord pitched and not man. Blessed Jesus! May I behold in thee everything realized. Thou art indeed the tabernacle, the mercy-seat, the ark, the covering, the door, the curtains, the all in all. How richly furnished, how full and satisfying, how completely suited to all my wants in this wilderness state! Lord help me by the sweet and constraining influences of thy blessed Spirit, to be continually coming to thee for the supply of all my need. And now the vail is broken down, and true believers have boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus, oh! may it be my portion to draw nigh with a true heart in full assurance of faith. May I live upon thee, and to thee, and by thee: and may thy blood and righteousness from which I derive pardon, and mercy, and peace, and wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption, be so completely mine in this live, that it may form my everlasting source of consolation and rejoicing to all eternity in another.
