The apostle shows to the Hebrews the typical reference of their
ceremonies to Christ. The tabernacle was a movable temple, shadowing
forth the unsettled state of the church upon earth, and the human nature
of the Lord Jesus Christ, in whom the fullness of the Godhead dwelt
bodily. The typical meaning of these things has been shown in former
remarks, and the ordinances and articles of the Mosaic covenant point
out Christ as our Light, and as the Bread of life to our souls; and
remind us of his Divine Person, his holy priesthood, perfect
righteousness, and all-prevailing intercession. Thus was the Lord Jesus
Christ, all and in all, from the beginning. And as interpreted by the
gospel, these things are a glorious representation of the wisdom of God,
and confirm faith in Him who was prefigured by them.
Hebrews 9:1-5
Now the first covenant had regulations for worship and also an earthly sanctuary. 2 A tabernacle was set up. In its first room were the lampstand and the table with its consecrated bread; this was called the Holy Place. 3 Behind the second curtain was a room called the Most Holy Place, 4 which had the golden altar of incense and the gold-covered ark of the covenant. This ark contained the gold jar of manna, Aaron’s staff that had budded, and the stone tablets of the covenant. 5 Above the ark were the cherubim of the Glory, overshadowing the atonement cover. But we cannot discuss these things in detail now.
