Keep in mind the differences we have spoke about in lessons past. One being that the instructive words of the Book of Hebrews defines for us the differences between Jesus Christ’s Great Atonement as the “Gospel” or Good news for Christian believers, while also holding out the realities of His all-inclusive Redemption/reformation/correction as they apply to the annulling of the Old Covenant. BUT we also spoke about the future establishing of that “New Covenant” with the house of Israel, with its promises to be fulfilled only “..after those days…” (of Jacob’s trouble/ the great tribulation. See Jeremiah 31 with Hebrews 8:7-12). That is to say after their repentance, (when Israel is restored) then restoration’s promises are extended in the Millennium and beyond.

Paul has been shedding intense light on the mysteries of the Gospel’s higher calling unto the heavenlies (Hebrews 3:1), and that by revealing the Scriptural mysteries of Jesus Christ in Heaven’s Tabernacle as the High Priest in Ministry there at the right hand of God. Those truths being shadowed, specifically in Abraham’s ancient Covenant and His blessing by that royal priest Melchizedek.

Now in the 9th Chapter VERSE 1, Paul continues to discover unto those Hebrew Christians the typical meanings of those two veiled tabernacles (compartments); the holy place and the holiest place, and their furnishings ordained in the service of God as it relates to this earth. To what Paul refers to as a Worldly sanctuary, as they were made of this earthly material, made by the hands of man, and located in this realm, being temporarily suitable to this worldly earthly system. But they are just copies of that which is needed in the spiritual realm, and are therefore worthless in the augmenting of the spiritual system and therefore are no longer acceptable to God and thus were shortly to vanish away. (Those earthly gifts and offerings before God had ceased with Christ’s Atonement, essentially having been annulled as they had no benefit in them any longer.)

VERSE 2 Paul briefly reviews the Tabernacle of Moses and its furnishings (as these with their practical application would be well known to the Hebrew Christians, but to most modern day Christians, little is understood of them from either the earthly or the spiritual application) before revealing their deeper spiritual and prophetic meanings, in that it had two tabernacles (besides the enclosed surrounding court yard). That is to say, two veiled compartments, wherein “…the first (veiled compartment) was the candlestick, and the table, and the shewbread; which is called the holy sanctuary (place).” First, there is the more basic understanding that these two pieces of furniture both typify Jesus Christ, in that He is the illuminating Light of the World Who is to bring us out from the darkness of the World (John 8:12) and in the case of the Table of shewbread, He also is the Bread of life (John 6) in that He is also the heavenly sustenance to strengthen the heart in service to God.

But going beyond that understanding, we can see that this first tabernacle, the holy place, may also be seen as the typing of two bodies of people set before the Lord; Peoples with two different destinies. The Lampstand/Menorah with its 7 branches are representative of the 7 Churches of Gospel participants in the heavenly calling; Christ the High Priest having trimmed and kindled them by the Holy Spirit (Exodus 30:7) is seen as He is in the midst of the 7 Lampstands, the 7 Churches of Revelation 1:12,13,20 with Revelation 1:4 and 5:6 and “… the 7 spirits (Specific ministering Angels under the authority of Jesus Christ) which are before his throne…” With “And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven spirits of God sent forth into all the earth” (to minister to His Churches of the heavenly calling according to His will). Who, in Moses’ typing were yet nonexistent in that The Holy Ghost this signifying, the way into the holiest of all was not yet made manifest, while as the first tabernacle was keeping its standing” VERSE 8.

Now that which is represented in the holy place is a future people, those who will come into and walk in the Light of the Son of God with....
