1 The Sanctuary: Hope in Hebrews Richard M. Davidson Andrews University Theological Seminary
2 Resources Richard M. Davidson, Christ s Entry Within the Veil in Hebrews 6:19-20: The Old Testament Background, Andrews University Seminary Studies 39 (2001): See also Richard M. Davidson, Inauguration or Day of Atonement? AUSS 40 (2002): Felix H. Cortez, The Anchor of the Soul that Enters within the Veil : The Ascension of the Son in the Letter to the Hebrews, Ph.D. dissertation, Andrews University, Davidson s Website:
3 The Book of Hebrews: Authorship No author mentioned in the Epistle Critical scholars deny Pauline authorship Evidence for Pauline authorship: SDA Bible Commentary Testimony of Albert VanHoye (via Roberto Badenes) Perhaps Paul s scholarly Magnum Opus to the Jews (in contrast to his occasional letters dashed off spontaneously)
4 Target Audience of Hebrews Jewish Christians in the Diaspora (Greek speaking, who had LXX [Septuagint, or Greek translation of the OT] as their Bible) Problem: They were tempted to forsake Christianity and apostasize
5 Central Theme of Hebrews Don t Forsake Jesus! If they forsook Jesus, where could they go? The OT types pointing to Jesus have met their reality in Him He is the Better Joshua, Moses, blood, covenant, priest, sacrifice, sanctuary, etc.
6 Basic Contours of Sanctuary Typology in Hebrews I. Christ s Death = the Antitypical Fulfillment of the entire OT sacrificial system The daily (tamid): (Heb 10:1-4,11-12) The red heifer (Heb 9:13) bulls and goats (9:13;10:4) = summary of entire sacrificial system in OT (Psalm 50 [49 LXX]:13; Isa 1:11) Even the Day of Atonement sacrifices (Heb 9:25-26) All OT sacrifices coalesce into the One once-for-all sacrifice of Christ, BASED UPON Psalm 40:6-8
7 Basic Contours of Sanctuary Typology in Hebrews II. Christ s Ascension to Heaven (31 AD) Traditional SDA Position: Christ Began His High Priestly Intercessory Ministry (in the Holy Place of the Heavenly Sanctuary) at His ascension (31 AD) Albion Ballenger ( ), evangelist in Great Britain, president of Welsh and Irish Missions Ballenger taught that Christ entered the Most Holy Place of the Heavenly Sanctuary in 31 AD and began the Day of Atonement ministry Ballenger s key text was Heb 6:19-20
8 Basic Contours of Sanctuary Typology in Hebrews When Christ Ascended to Heaven in 31 A.D.: --Was it to start the Day of Atonement, as Albion Ballenger claimed (based upon Heb 6:19-20) or as the 991- page Glacier View document and later detractors claim (based upon Heb 9:12)? --Or is there evidence within the text for a different typological background?
9 Basic Contours of Sanctuary Typology in Hebrews Christ s Ascension: --Three main passages in Hebrews speaking of Jesus entering the sanctuary: Heb 6:19-20; 9:12; and 10: The literary structure of the central section of Hebrews shows the relationship of these passages to each other
10 Chiastic Literary Structure of Heb 6:19-10:20 A. The Veil (6:19-20) B. The Priesthood (7:1-25) C. The Sacrifice (7:26-28) D. The Sanctuary (8:1-5) E. The Covenant (8:6-13 F. The Sanctuary (9:1-10) F. The Sanctuary (9:11-14) E. The Covenant (9:15-22) D. The Sanctuary (9:23-28) C. The Sacrifice (10:1-10) B. The Priesthood (10:11-18) A. The Veil (10:19-20)
11 Chiastic Literary Structure of Hebrews 6:19 10:20 This structure was adapted from an unpublished paper by William Shea Note how the two entrance passages of Heb 6:19-20 and Heb 10:19-20 match each other as parallel A members in the chiasm. Heb 6:19-20 = Heb 10:19-20 Scholars generally recognize that these two passages refer to the same event But scholars almost always see this event as the antitype of the OT Day of Atonement, when Jesus entered within the veil of the Most Holy Place Is the majority opinion of scholars correct?
12 Chiastic Literary Structure of Hebrews 6:19 10:20 What is the OT background event? Heb 6:19-20 does not tell us explicitly But Heb 10:19-20 is the KEY! This passage identifies Christ s work as He enters as evgkaini,zw (enkainizo, v. 20) = to inaugurate! This word group evgkaini,zw [enkainizo] is used in a technical sense in the Septuagint (LXX) which was the version of the OT from which the author of Hebrews consistently quoted
13 The Inauguration of the Sanctuary evgkaini,zw [Enkainizo] Throughout the Pentateuchal references to sacrifices (LXX), the word group evgkaini,zw [enkainizo] is found in only ONE chapter: Numbers 7 (vv. 10, 11, 84, 88) which describes the INAUGURATION of the sanctuary, as its services started up. The word evgkaini,zw [enkainizo] NEVER refers to the Day of Atonement in the OT!
14 The Inauguration of the Sanctuary The immediate context of evgkainizw [enkainizo] in Heb 10:20 verifies this identification Heb 9:18: evgkaini,zw [enkainizo] clearly means inaugurate or dedicate and describes the setting up of the sanctuary services and NOT the Day of Atonement Thus Heb 10:19-20 and its chiastic parallel passage (Heb 6:19-20) refer to INAUGURATION and not Day of Atonement
15 The Inauguration of the Sanctuary This is a fulfillment of Dan 9:24: anoint the Most Holy Place It doesn t matter which veil Heb 6:19-20 and Heb 10:20 refer to (second or first), contra Ballenger and more recent detractors, since at the inauguration of the sanctuary Moses (acting in his priestly function before the ordaining of Aaron) went into both the Holy Place and the Most Holy Place (Exod 40:9-10; Num 7:1)
16 The Inauguration of the Sanctuary Heb 9:12 The Blood of goats and calves what does this refer to? A goat and (bull) calf were indeed sacrificed at the time of Day of Atonement (Lev 16:6, 15) Does Heb 9:12 therefore refer to the Day of Atonement? NO! Not if one looks at the original Greek
17 The Inauguration of the Sanctuary Heb 9:12 Goat = tra,goj [tragos] Calf = mo,scoj [moschos] In the LXX the word mo,scoj [moschos] is used for both the inauguration and the Day of Atonement (7 times in Lev 16 and 17 times in Num 7 & 8) In the LXX there are TWO words for goat used in reference to the sacrificial system: Tra,goj [tragos] and ci,maroj [chimaros] Which one is used for the Day of Atonement in Lev 16? Ci,maroj [chimaros]! Not tra,goj [tragos]
18 The Inauguration of the Sanctuary Tra,goj [tragos](the Goat of Heb 9:12) In the LXX the word appears in only ONE chapter of the Pentateuchal material describing sanctuary rituals: Numbers 7 (13 times) The setting of Num 7 = Inauguration of the sanctuary! Heb 9:19 verifies this interpretation of Heb 9:12, as it uses the same two words calves and goats, (mo,scoj [moschos] and tra,goj [tragos]) clearly in the context of the inauguration of the covenant (v. 18)
19 The Inauguration of the Sanctuary Heb 9:12 and the Word ta. a[gia ( The Holies ) The term ta hagia does not refer to the Most Holy Place by itself In LXX usage (also Pseudepigrapha, Philo, and Josephus) ta hagia NEVER refers to the Most Holy Place by itself It is the regular term for the entire sanctuary as a whole In the LXX ta hagia appears109 times referring to the sanctuary, and 106 times refers to the entire sanctuary, and 3 times refers to the Holy Place (1 Ki 8:8; 2 Chr 5:9,11) See Carl Cosaert, A Study of ta. a[gia in the LXX, Pseudepigrapha, Philo, and Josephus, and Its Implications in Hebrews, Nazarene Theological Seminary, 2000; idem, The Use of Agios for the Sanctuary in the OT Pseudepigrapha, Philo, and Josephus, AUSS 42/1 (Sp 2004):
20 The Inauguration of the Sanctuary Summary: When Christ entered the heavenly sanctuary, He entered to inaugurate it, to officially start up the services as Priest- King. He went into the entire sanctuary, as in the type (Num 7:1; Exod 40)
21 The Inauguration of the Sanctuary He sat down at the right hand of the Father (Heb 1:3; 8:1; 10:12; 12:2) This is a description based upon Ps 110:1: Sit at My right hand until I make your enemies a footstool. This is clearly a FUNCTIONAL description and not primarily locational, since in v. 5, the Father is at the Son s right hand!
22 The Inauguration of the Sanctuary To sit at the right hand or to sit on the throne is the biblical way of indicating royal STATUS See 1 Kgs 8:14-15, 20: The king is standing (blessing the people) but says, I sit on the throne of Israel Cf. 1 Kgs 1:35,46; 2:12;1 Chr 29:23; Jer 17:25 Christ s sitting at the right hand of the Father in the heavenly sanctuary is a statement of His kingly status, and does not box Him in the Most Holy Place Christ was installed as both King and Priest
23 The Basic Contours of Sanctuary Typology in Hebrews III. Christ s Ongoing Priestly Work in the Heavenly Sanctuary in the First Century ( When the Epistle to the Hebrews Was Written) = the antitypical equivalent of the tamid (regular/continual) Holy Place ministry Heb 7:25-27 Intercession (=tamid) Heb 10:11-14 daily (=tamid) Heb 13:10-12 daily (=tamid)
24 The Basic Contours of Sanctuary Typology in Hebrews IV. Christ s Future Work (from the Perspective of the First Century A.D.) = the work of Day of Atonement Heb 9:23-27: Judgment is still future Heb 10:25-31 Future Investigative followed by Executive judgment God s professed people are judged Yoma = The Day [of Atonement] (v. 25)! Cf. the tractate of the Jewish Mishnah on the Day of Atonement entitled Yoma
25 The Basic Contours of Sanctuary Typology in Hebrews Conclusions: The basic contours of sanctuary typology in Hebrews are consistent with Leviticus, with Daniel, with Revelation, and with the SDA doctrine of the investigative judgment based on these passages The author of Hebrews does not indicate the exact time of the future Day of Atonement judgment; for this we need to go to Daniel 8 & 9
26 The Practical Message of Hebrews: Sanctuary Hope! Our hope can NOW enter into the heavenly sanctuary!! Heb 6: 19-20: We have this hope, a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul, a hope that enters the inner shrine behind the curtain, 20 where Jesus, a forerunner on our behalf, has entered, having become a high priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek. We have this hope hope in our High Priest, Jesus Christ, in the heavenly sanctuary!
27 We have this Hope! We have this hope that burns within our hearts, Hope in the coming of the Lord. We have this faith that Christ alone imparts, Faith in the promise of His Word.
28 We have this Hope! We believe the time is here, When the nations far and near Shall awake, and shout and sing Hallelujah! Christ is King! We have this hope that burns within our hearts, Hope in the coming of the Lord.
