INTRODUCTION The Earthly Sanctuary Hebrews 9:1-10 1. The main points in The Epistle To The Hebrews are rather simple... a. The superiority of Christ - He 1:1-7:28 b. The superiority of the New Covenant - He 8:7-10:18 2. In the transition passage of He 8:1-6, we find... a. The first point summarized - He 8:1 b. The second point introduced - He 8:2-6 3. In demonstrating the superiority of the New Covenant, three points are made... a. The New Covenant is based upon “better promises” b. The New Covenant pertains to a “better sanctuary” c. The New Covenant provides a “better sacrifice” Mark A. Copeland 4. In He 8:7-13 we read of the “better promises”... a. Foretold through the prophet Jeremiah - cf. Jer 31:31-34 b. In which God promised a closer relationship with His people, made possible by the forgiveness of sin 5. In chapter nine, our attention is now drawn to the matter of the “better sanctuary” provided by the New Covenant... a. To appreciate the author’s argument, we must be acquainted with the sanctuary of the first covenant b. Therefore we find a brief discussion concerning “The Earthly Sanctuary” - He 9:1-10 [We could turn back to the books of Exodus and Leviticus to read about the earthly sanctuary, but in our text we find a helpful and concise summary. Beginning with...] I. THE EARTHLY SANCTUARY: ITS DESCRIPTION (1-5) A. THE HOLY PLACE... (2) 1. This was the first part of the tabernacle, in which the priests entered daily 2. Inside of it were... a. The lamp stand - cf. Exo 25:31-40; 26:35 1) Placed next to the south wall of the tabernacle 2) Made of gold and had seven lamps for burning olive oil 3) It was never allowed to go out b. The table and the show bread - Exo 25:23-30; 26:35; Lev 24:5-9 1) A table overlaid with gold 2) On which were kept twelve loaves of bread, in two rows of six 3) Fresh loaves were brought in each Sabbath, and the old were eaten by the priests - cf. 1 Sam 21:3-6; Mt 12:3,4 Sermons From Hebrews 66
Mark A. Copeland B. THE HOLIEST OF ALL... (3-5) 1. This was the part of the tabernacle behind the veil, also called “The Most Holy” - Exo 26: 31-33 2. This innermost room of the tabernacle, the holiest place in the worship of Israel, had... a. The golden altar of incense (golden censor, KJV) 1) The golden altar of incense was actually in the Holy Place, just on the other side of the veil separating the two rooms - Exo 30:1-10 a) On this altar sweet spices were continually burned with fire taken from the brazen altar (which was outside the tabernacle) b) The morning and evening services were begun by the high priest offering incense on this altar c) Once a year, the High Priest would take a censer of burning coals from this altar along with incense into The Most Holy Place - Lev 16:12 2) It is appropriate to say The Most Holy Place “had” the golden altar... a) For the smoke of the daily incense would permeate through the veil, and as such be “a perpetual incense before the LORD” - Exo 30:8 b) The annual ceremony on the Day of Atonement connected in a tangible way the altar of incense with The Most Holy Place - Lev 16:12 b. The ark of the covenant 1) A chest made of acacia wood, about four feet long by two and half feet high and wide - Exo 25:10-16 2) Covered with gold, it was the most sacred thing in the tabernacle 3) In it contained... a) The golden pot that had the manna - Exo 16:32-34 b) Aaron’s rod that budded - Num 17:1-11 c) The tablets of the covenant - Deu 10:1-5 4) Covering the ark was the mercy seat - Exo 25:17-22 a) This lid, covered with gold, was topped with two cherubim (with wings stretched upward, and their faces “toward each other and toward the mercy seat.”) b) The Lord was said to appear in a cloud above the mercy seat - Lev 16:2; Num 7:89; 2 Kin 19:5 [As stated by the author himself, “of these things we cannot now speak in detail”. But a little more is now said regarding the ritual of the earthly sanctuary...] II. THE EARTHLY SANCTUARY: ITS RITUAL (6-7) A. THE RITUAL OF THE HOLY PLACE... (6) 1. Every morning and evening, the priests would go into The Holy Place “performing the services”... a. They would trim the lamps on the lamp stand - Exo 27:20-21 b. They would offer incense on the altar of incense - Exo 30:7-8 2. On the Sabbath, the priests would replace the show bread - Lev 25:4-9 -- But none went into The Most Holy Place during these daily services B. THE RITUAL OF THE MOST HOLY PLACE... (7) 1. Once a year, only the high priest entered The Most Holy Place - Lev 16:2 a. On the Day of Atonement Sermons From Hebrews 67
