Hebrews 9:23-26 Therefore, it was necessary for the copies of the heavenly things i.e., the Tabernacle, its furniture and utensils, etc. to be ceremonially cleansed by these things i.e., the blood of animal sacrifices, but the heavenly things themselves i.e., the church, both on earth and in heaven require better sacrifices than these i.e., the sacrifice of Christ.

AUV⁽ⁱ⁾ ²³ Therefore, it was necessary for the copies of the heavenly things [i.e., the Tabernacle, its furniture and utensils, etc.] to be [ceremonially] cleansed by these things [i.e., the blood of animal sacrifices], but the heavenly things themselves [i.e., the church, both on earth and in heaven] require better sacrifices than these [i.e., the sacrifice of Christ]. ²⁴ For Christ did not enter the Holy of Holies made by hand, which is [only] a counterpart of the true one, but into heaven itself, where He now appears in God’s presence for us. [See verse 12]. ²⁵ Nor was it necessary for Him to offer Himself [to God] often, like the head priest does, who enters the Holy of Holies year after year with blood that belongs to others [i.e., the blood of animal sacrifices]. ²⁶ For then He would have had to suffer often since the creation of the world; but now at the end of the ages [i.e., the final period of world history] He has been revealed once [for all] to remove sin by sacrificing Himself.
