Hebrews 8:2
_ _ minister — The Greek term implies priestly ministry in the temple.
_ _ the sanctuary — Greek, “the holy places”; the Holy of Holies. Here the heavenly sanctuary is meant.
_ _ the true — the archetypal and antitypical, as contrasted with the typical and symbolical (Hebrews 9:24). Greek “alethinos” (used here) is opposed to that which does not fulfil its idea, as for instance, a type; “alethes,” to that which is untrue and unreal, as a lie. The measure of alethes is reality; that of alethinos, ideality. In alethes the idea corresponds to the thing; in alethinos, the thing to the idea [Kalmis in Alford].
_ _ tabernacle — (Hebrews 9:11). His body. Through His glorified body as the tabernacle, Christ passes into the heavenly “Holy of Holies,” the immediate immaterial presence of God, where He intercedes for us. This tabernacle in which God dwells, is where God in Christ meets us who are “members of His body, of His flesh, and of His bones.” This tabernacle answers to the heavenly Jerusalem, where God’s visible presence is to be manifested to His perfected saints and angels, who are united in Christ the Head; in contradistinction to His personal invisible presence in the Holy of Holies unapproachable save to Christ. John 1:14, “Word ... dwelt among us,” Greek, “tabernacled.”
_ _ pitched — Greek, “fixed” firmly.
_ _ not man — as Moses (Hebrews 8:5). |
Hebrews 8:2
A minister — Who represents his own sacrifice, as the high priest did the blood of those sacrifices once a year. Of the sanctuary — Heaven, typified by the holy of holies. And of the true tabernacle — Perhaps his human nature, of which the old tabernacle was a type. Which the Lord hath fixed — Forever. Not man — As Moses fixed the tabernacle. |
Hebrews 8:2
(2) A minister of the (a) sanctuary, (3) and of the (b) true tabernacle, which the Lord pitched, and not man.
(2) They of Levi were high priests in an earthly sanctuary, but Christ is in the heavenly.
(a) Of heaven. (3) They of Levi exercised their priesthood in a frail tabernacle, but Christ bears about with him another tabernacle, that is, his body, which God himself made everlasting, as shall later be declared in (Hebrews 9:11).
(b) Of his body. |
- minister:
Hebrews 9:8-12 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: ... Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption [for us].

Exodus 28:35 And it shall be upon Aaron to minister: and his sound shall be heard when he goeth in unto the holy [place] before the LORD, and when he cometh out, that he die not.

Romans 15:8 Now I say that Jesus Christ was a minister of the circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises [made] unto the fathers:
|
- the sanctuary:
- or, holy things
|
- the true:
Hebrews 9:11 But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building;
Hebrews 9:23-24 [It was] therefore necessary that the patterns of things in the heavens should be purified with these; but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these. ... For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, [which are] the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us:
|
- which:
Hebrews 11:10 For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker [is] God.
2 Corinthians 5:1 For we know that if our earthly house of [this] tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.
