Hebrews 8:5
_ _ Who — namely, the priests.
_ _ serve unto the example — not “after the example,” as Bengel explains. But as in Hebrews 13:10, “serve the tabernacle,” that is, do it service: so “serve (the tabernacle which is but) the outline and shadow.” The Greek for “example” is here taken for the sketch, copy, or suggestive representation of the heavenly sanctuary, which is the antitypical reality and primary archetype. “The mount” answers to heaven, Hebrews 12:22.
_ _ admonished — The Greek especially applies to divine responses and commands.
_ _ to make — “perfectly”: so the Greek.
_ _ See — Take heed, accurately observing the pattern, that so thou mayest make, etc.
_ _ saith he — God.
_ _ the pattern — an accurate representation, presented in vision to Moses, of the heavenly real sanctuary. Thus the earthly tabernacle was copy of a copy; but the latter accurately representing the grand archetypical original in heaven (Exodus 25:40). |
Hebrews 8:5
Who serve — The temple, which was not yet destroyed. After the pattern and shadow of heavenly things — Of spiritual, evangelical worship, and of everlasting glory. The pattern — Somewhat like the strokes pencilled out upon a piece of fine linen, which exhibit the figures of leaves and flowers, but have not yet received their splendid colours and curious shades. And shadow — Or shadowy representation, which gives you some dim and imperfect idea of the body, but not the fine features, not the distinguishing air; none of those living graces which adorn the real person. Yet both the pattern and shadow lead our minds to something nobler than themselves: the pattern, to that holiness and glory which complete it; the shadow, to that which occasions it. Exodus 25:40. |
- the example:
Hebrews 9:9 Which [was] a figure for the time then present, in which were offered both gifts and sacrifices, that could not make him that did the service perfect, as pertaining to the conscience;
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:
Hebrews 10:1 For the law having a shadow of good things to come, [and] not the very image of the things, can never with those sacrifices which they offered year by year continually make the comers thereunto perfect.
Colossians 2:17 Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body [is] of Christ.
|
- See:
Exodus 25:40 And look that thou make [them] after their pattern, which was shewed thee in the mount.
Exodus 26:30 And thou shalt rear up the tabernacle according to the fashion thereof which was shewed thee in the mount.
Exodus 27:8 Hollow with boards shalt thou make it: as it was shewed thee in the mount, so shall they make [it].
Numbers 8:4 And this work of the candlestick [was of] beaten gold, unto the shaft thereof, unto the flowers thereof, [was] beaten work: according unto the pattern which the LORD had shewed Moses, so he made the candlestick.
1 Chronicles 28:12 And the pattern of all that he had by the spirit, of the courts of the house of the LORD, and of all the chambers round about, of the treasuries of the house of God, and of the treasuries of the dedicated things:
1 Chronicles 28:19 All [this, said David], the LORD made me understand in writing by [his] hand upon me, [even] all the works of this pattern.
Acts 7:44 Our fathers had the tabernacle of witness in the wilderness, as he had appointed, speaking unto Moses, that he should make it according to the fashion that he had seen.
