The Earthly Sanctuary
1 Then indeed, even the first covenant had ordinances of divine service and athe earthly sanctuary.
2 For a tabernacle was prepared: the first part, in which was the lampstand, the table, and the showbread, which is called the1 sanctuary;
3 aand behind the second veil, the part of the tabernacle which is called the Holiest of All,
4 which had the agolden censer and bthe ark of the covenant overlaid on all sides with gold, in which were cthe golden pot that had the manna, dAaron’s rod that budded, and ethe tablets of the covenant;
5 and aabove it were the cherubim of glory overshadowing the mercy seat. Of these things we cannot now speak in detail.
Limitations of the Earthly Service
6 Now when these things had been thus prepared, athe priests always went into the first part of the tabernacle, performing the services.
