Interpretation of Hebrews Chapter 9 Verse 24
In Hebrews 9:24, the author is explaining the superiority of Jesus’ sacrifice over the Old Testament sacrifices. In the Old Testament, the high priest would enter the holy place made with hands, a physical structure, to offer a blood sacrifice on behalf of the people. But in Jesus’ case, he entered into heaven itself to appear before the face of God and offer himself as the perfect and once-for-all sacrifice for the sins of humanity. Jesus’ sacrifice was not merely a pattern or a symbol, but a real and effective atonement for sin.
