ISV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ The Messiah Has a Better MinistryNow the main point in what we are saying is this: we do have this kind of high priest, who sat down at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in heaven ² and who serves in the sanctuary, the true tent set up by the Lord and not by any human. ³ For every high priest is appointed to offer both gifts and sacrifices. Therefore, this high priest had to offer something, too. ⁴ Now if he were on earth, he would not even be a priest, because other men offer the gifts prescribed by the Law. ⁵ They serve in a sanctuary that is a copy, a shadow of the heavenly one. This is why Moses was warned when he was about to build the tent: “See to it that you make everything according to the pattern that was shown you on the mountain.”
