Book of Hebrews - Chapter 9 - Verse 8

The verse "The Holy Ghost this signifying, that the way into the holiest of all was not yet made manifest, while as the first tabernacle was yet standing:" speaks to the significance of the Old Testament tabernacle in relation to access to God's presence. In this verse, the Holy Ghost is signifying that the way into the holiest place, symbolizing God's presence, was not fully revealed or made clear while the first tabernacle was still standing. The tabernacle was a physical structure where the Israelites offered sacrifices and worshiped God, but it also served as a symbol of the separation between God and humanity, as access to the holiest place, where God dwelt, was restricted to only a select few priests. This verse highlights the temporary nature of the Old Testament system of worship through sacrifices and rituals, pointing to the future revelation of Jesus Christ as the ultimate way to access God's presence and salvation. Through his death and resurrection, Jesus opened the way for all believers to come boldly before God's throne and experience His presence directly, fulfilling the promise of a new and living way into the holiest of all.
