Hebrews 11:9

11:9 By faith he lived as a foreigner ⁷  in the promised land as though it were a foreign country, living in tents with Isaac and Jacob, who were fellow heirs ⁸  of the same promise.

Hebrews 8:5

8:5 The place where they serve is ⁹  a sketch ¹⁰  and shadow of the heavenly sanctuary, just as Moses was warned by God as he was about to complete the tabernacle. For he says, “See that you make everything according to the design ¹¹  shown to you on the mountain.” ¹² 

[9:6]  ¹ tn Grk “the first tent.”

[9:2]  ¹ tn Grk “the first,” in order of approach in the ritual.

[9:2]  ² tn Grk “in which [were].”

[9:2]  ³ tn Grk “which,” describing the outer tent.

[9:8]  ¹ tn Grk “the first tent.” The literal phrase “the first tent” refers to either (1) the outer chamber of the tabernacle in the wilderness (as in vv. 2, 6) or (2) the entire tabernacle as a symbol of the OT system of approaching God. The second is more likely given the contrast that follows in vv. 11-12.

[9:11]  ¹ tn Grk “But Christ, when he came,” introducing a sentence that includes all of Heb 9:11-12. The main construction is “Christ, having come…, entered…, having secured…,” and everything else describes his entrance.

[11:9]  ¹ tn Or “settled as a resident alien.”

[11:9]  ² tn Or “heirs with him.”

[8:5]  ¹ tn Grk “who serve in,” referring to the Levitical priests, but focusing on the provisional and typological nature of the tabernacle in which they served.

[8:5]  ² tn Or “prototype,” “outline.” The Greek word ὑπόδειγμα (Jupodeigma) does not mean “copy,” as it is often translated; it means “something to be copied,” a basis for imitation. BDAG 1037 s.v. 2 lists both Heb 8:5 and 9:23 under the second category of usage, “an indication of someth. that appears at a subsequent time,” emphasizing the temporal progression between the earthly and heavenly sanctuaries.

[8:5]  ³ tn The word τύπος (tupos) here has the meaning “an archetype serving as a model, type, pattern, model” (BDAG 1020 s.v. 6.a). This is in keeping with the horizontal imagery accepted for this verse (see sn on “sketch” earlier in the verse). Here Moses was shown the future heavenly sanctuary which, though it did not yet exist, became the outline for the earthly sanctuary.
