Hebreos 9:21 Meaning and Commentary

Hebrews 9:21

Moreover, he sprinkled likewise both the tabernacle
Not at the same time that he sprinkled the book and the people, for then there was no tabernacle; but afterwards, at the time that it was set up, when it was anointed with oil, ( Exodus 40:9 ) and though no mention is there made of blood, yet Josephus, in agreement with the apostle, asserts ^F9, that the tabernacle, and its vessels, were not only anointed with oil, but sprinkled with the blood of bulls and goats, as well as the garments of Aaron, and his sons: the tabernacle was typical of the church, in which God dwells, being purified and cleansed by the blood of Christ; and this shows, that there is no coming into the presence of God, the place where he dwells, without blood.

And all the vessels of the ministry;
which were used in the service of the tabernacle these may denote the vessels of grace and mercy, the elect of God, whose hearts are sprinkled by the blood of Christ from an evil conscience, and whose garments are washed in it, and made white by it.

Hebreos 9:21 In-Context

19 Porque cuando Moisés terminó de promulgar todos los mandamientos a todo el pueblo, conforme a la ley, tomó la sangre de los becerros y de los machos cabríos, con agua, lana escarlata e hisopo, y roció el libro mismo y a todo el pueblo,

20 diciendo: ESTA ES LA SANGRE DEL PACTO QUE DIOS OS ORDENO.

21 Y de la misma manera roció con sangre tanto el tabernáculo como todos los utensilios del ministerio.

22 Y según la ley, casi todo es purificado con sangre, y sin derramamiento de sangre no hay perdón.

23 Por tanto, fue necesario que las representaciones de las cosas en los cielos fueran purificadas de esta manera, pero las cosas celestiales mismas, con mejores sacrificios que éstos.
