Leviticus 16:17

16:17 Nobody is to be in the Meeting Tent ¹  when he enters to make atonement in the holy place until he goes out, and he has made atonement on his behalf, on behalf of his household, and on behalf of the whole assembly of Israel.

Hebrews 4:14

Jesus Our Compassionate High Priest

4:14 Therefore since we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast to our confession.

Hebrews 9:24

9:24 For Christ did not enter a sanctuary made with hands – the representation ²  of the true sanctuary ³  – but into heaven itself, and he appears now in God’s presence for us.

Revelation 8:3

8:3 Another ⁴  angel holding ⁵  a golden censer ⁶  came and was stationed ⁷  at the altar. A ⁸  large amount of incense was given to him to offer up, with the prayers of all the saints, on the golden altar that is before the throne.

¹ tn Heb “And all man shall not be in the tent of meeting.” The term for “a man, human being” (אָדָם, ’adam; see the note on Lev 1:2) refers to any person among “mankind,” male or female.

² tn Or “prefiguration.”

³ tn The word “sanctuary” is not in the Greek text at this point, but has been supplied for clarity.

⁴ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

⁵ tn Grk “having.”

⁶ sn A golden censer was a bowl in which incense was burned. The imagery suggests the OT role of the priest.

⁷ tn The verb “to station” was used to translate ἑστάθη (Jestaqh) because it connotes the idea of purposeful arrangement in English, which seems to be the idea in the Greek.

⁸ tn Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation. Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.
