The Symbolic Veil

Nor let us forget Gethsemane, where “His sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground.” At His circumcision, at Gethsemane, at the cross, we see the blood-sprinkled veil. And all this for us; that the blood which was thus required at His hands should not be required of us.
