The 1st physical/temporal old covenant Tabernacle (blueprints are given to Moses Ex chapters 25-31 & 35-40) for building the Tabernacle. It was a foreshadow/glimpse of the heavenly Tabernacle.

Ex 25:40 See that you make them [exactly] after their pattern which was shown to you on the mountain. (Also see Heb 8:5)

(MY NOTE: The Lord instructs Moses to follow His blueprints when constructing the Wilderness Tabernacle)

Heb 9:
10 For they [the gifts, sacrifices, and ceremonies] deal only with [clean and unclean] food and drink and various ritual washings, [mere] external regulations for the body imposed [to help the worshipers] until the time of reformation [that is, the time of the new order when Christ will establish the reality of what these things foreshadow—a better covenant].

(MY NOTE: The physical/temporal old sin management administration covenant. Will be in effect "UNTIL" Christ's eternal/Spiritual new better sin management administration covenant is established0

11 But when Christ appeared as a High Priest of the good things to come [that is, true spiritual worship], He entered through the greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not a part of this [material] creation.

(MY NOTE: After His resurrection Christ enters the heavenly tabernacle not made by man)

12 He went once for all into the Holy Place [the Holy of Holies of heaven, into the presence of God], and not through the blood of goats and calves, but through His own blood, having obtained and secured eternal redemption [that is, the salvation of all who personally believe in Him as Savior].

(MY NOTE: Christ bring His perpetual sin cleansing/removing God blood one time/ETERNAL for all time offer)

13 For if the sprinkling of [ceremonially] defiled persons with the blood of goats and bulls and the ashes of a [burnt] heifer is sufficient for the cleansing of the body,

14 how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal [Holy] Spirit willingly offered Himself unblemished [that is, without moral or spiritual imperfection as a sacrifice] to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works and lifeless observances to serve the ever living God?

(MY NOTE: Christ's superior sin offering can cleanse the conscience from dead works & lifeless observances to serve the ever-living God)

15 For this reason He is the Mediator and Negotiator of a new covenant [that is, an entirely new agreement uniting God and man], so that those who have been called [by God] may receive [the fulfillment of] the promised eternal inheritance, since a death has taken place [as the payment] which redeems them from the sins committed under the obsolete first covenant.

(MY NOTE: Christ is Mediator & Negotiator of a NEW ETRNAL sin management covenant rendering the 1st obsolete)

16 For where there is a will and [d]testament involved, the death of the one who made it must be established,

(MY NOTE: Christ's sin atoning death is history's inflection point that establishes a NEW sin management covenant)

17 for a will and testament takes effect [only] at death, since it is never in force as long as the one who made it is alive.

(MY NOTE: Christ death retires the old physical/temporal covenant & brings in the new Spiritual/Eternal covenant)

18 So even the first covenant was not put in force without [the shedding of] blood.

19 For when every commandment in the Law had been read by Moses to all the people, he took the blood of the calves and goats [which had been sacrificed], together with water and scarlet wool and with a bunch of hyssop, and he sprinkled both the scroll itself and all the people,

20 saying, “This is the blood of the covenant [that seals and ratifies the agreement] which God ordained and commanded [me to deliver to] you.”

MY NOTE: It's Jesus sinless God blood that sealed & ratified the NEW covenant)

21 And in the same way he sprinkled both the tabernacle and all the containers and sacred utensils of worship with the blood.

22 In fact under the Law almost everything is cleansed with blood, and without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness [neither release from sin and its guilt, nor cancellation of the merited punishment].

23 Therefore it was necessary for the [earthly] copies of the heavenly things to be cleansed with these, but the heavenly things themselves required far better sacrifices than these.

24 For Christ did not enter into a holy place made with hands, a mere copy of the true one, but [He entered] into heaven itself, now to appear in the very presence of God on our behalf;

(MY NOTE: Christ enters into the heavenly tabernacle in the presents of God the Father)

25 nor did He [enter into the heavenly sanctuary to] offer Himself again and again, as the high priest enters the Holy Place every year with blood that is not his own.

(MY NOTE: Christ enters into the heavenly Holy Place ONCE with His own perpetually cleansing God Blood)

26 Otherwise, He would have needed to suffer over and over since the foundation of the world; but now once for all at the consummation of the ages He has appeared and been publicly manifested to put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself.

(MY NOTE: Jesus ONE-time sinless God Blood sacrificial offering is an eternally perpetual sin cleanser)

27 And just as it is appointed and destined for all men to die once and after this [comes certain] judgment,

28 so Christ, having been offered once and once for all to bear [as a burden] [e]the sins of many, will appear a second time [when he returns to earth], not to deal with sin, but to bring salvation to those who are eagerly and confidently waiting for Him.

(MY NOTE: Soon very soon Jesus will return for His bride/church) Amen
