And after the second veil, the tabernacle which is called the Holiest of all;
And behind the second curtain was the most sacred room of all, they called it the Holy of Holies.
There was one room so sacred, it had double security just to get there.
📚 Historical Context
In the Old Testament, the Tabernacle was a portable sanctuary that the Israelites constructed as instructed by God, serving as a place where He dwelt among them and symbolizing His holiness and separation from sin. The second veil divided the Holy Place from the Most Holy Place, called the Holiest of All, which housed the Ark of the Covenant and was accessible only to the High Priest once a year on the Day of Atonement. The book of Hebrews uses this description to illustrate the limitations of the old covenant and to point to the fulfillment brought by Christ.
