Verse 21
Moses did not only sprinkle the book of the covenant with blood, but the tabernacle itself, yearly, on the atonement day, as is charged, Leviticus 16:14,Leviticus 16:16,Leviticus 16:17. For as the altar and persons were to be atoned for, so was the tabernacle itself, Hebrews 9:18,Hebrews 9:20. First they were sprinkled, and then anointed, Leviticus 8:10,Leviticus 8:11, as the gospel tabernacle was in the truth of it, 1 Corinthians 6:11. All the garments and vessels of that priesthood were thus to be purified, typifying how unclean all the persons ministering with them, and atoned for in and by them, were; and how polluting all things, and polluted by them, till they were purified by the blood of Christ.
