The Curtain, His Body

Heb 10:19-20 Therefore, brothers, since we have confidence to enter the Most Holy Place by the blood of Jesus, by a new and living way opened for us through the curtain, that is, his body,

Confidence of faith is one of the themes of Hebrews. Confidence but not presumption. Heb 4:16 Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.  Formerly one could not approach God with confidence.

The tabernacle was a shadow of that which was to come. It's fulfillment is found in Christ. The curtain separating the Holy Place from the Most Holy Place represents the body of Christ. When his body was torn so was the curtain. "When Jesus had cried out again in a loud voice, he gave up his spirit. At that moment the curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. The earth shook and the rocks split." Mt 27:50,51

Formerly "your iniquities have separated you from your God; your sins have hidden his face from you, so that he will not hear." Is 59:2 But the curtain having been torn for those who have put their faith in the blood of Christ there no longer exists a barrier, a separation between man and God.
