Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Hebrews 9:1-14

Hebrews 9:1-2 Chronicles : . The two ministries are now contrasted, in order to show that the OT institutions were imperfect, and pointed beyond themselves to that real access to God which we have obtained through Christ. Hebrews 9:1-Deuteronomy : . The first covenant was associated with a system of worship ordained by God Himself, although its sanctuary was “ of this world”— i.e. composed of visible and material elements. A Tabernacle was set up which consisted of two parts, divided by a... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Hebrews 9:5

And over it the cherubims of glory shadowing the mercy-seat; on the cover of the ark at each end was a cherub of beaten gold; these and the cover of the ark were all of one piece, they had their feet on the ledge of the cover, or its crown, at each end; their faces looked towards each other, and their wings touched each other in the extreme part of them, and so on the cover formed the mercy seat see Exodus 25:17-22; and Exodus 37:6-9; Exodus 40:20. Their form is described by Ezekiel, Ezekiel... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Hebrews 9:6

The Spirit now proceeds to the second adjunct of the Mosaical administration, having stated the places of them, even the Aaronical priests’ services in them. Now when these things were thus ordained; when the tabernacles were made and reared, and the utensils rightly disposed in them, and all things set in God’s own order, now the priests went always into the first tabernacle, accomplishing the service of God; into the holy place or sanctuary within the first veil, described, Hebrews 9:2. Not... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Hebrews 9:1-5

CHRIST IS THE END OF THE LAWCRITICAL AND EXEGETICAL NOTESTHE writer proceeds to compare, or rather contrast, the ordinances of ministration under the two priesthoods. 1. The older ceremonial indicated that the way into the holiest was not made plain. In Christ it is made plain. 2. The whole service of Judaism was outward and ceremonial. That of Christ is spiritual. 3. The older sacrifices were of unwilling beasts. That of Christ was the sacrifice of His own will, “His own consenting... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Hebrews 9:1-5

Hebrews 9:1-5 Worship in Spirit and Truth. I. Apart from revelation men have not the idea of God as Lord, Spirit, Father; and even after the light of Scripture has appeared, God is to many only an abstract word, by which they designate a complex of perfections rather than a real, living, loving, ever-present Lord, to whom we speak and of whom we ask the blessings that we need. Without revelation prayer is regarded not so much as asking God in order to receive from Him, but as an exercise of... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Hebrews 9:1-28

Hebrews chapter 9.In the eighth chapter of the book of Hebrews, he makes mention of the prophecy in Jeremiah where God said that in those days He was going to make a new covenant with the people, not like the old covenant which was written on the tables of stone. He was going to write His law on the fleshly tablets of their hearts. Now, in the declaration that God is going to make this new covenant, it means that the first covenant would be set aside in order that He might establish the new... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Hebrews 9:1-28

Hebrews 9:2-6 . A tabernacle wherein was the candlestick. For a description of this portable temple, which disdains borrowing figures from the Egyptian temples, though they had some figures analogous to the jews, see the sixteen last chapters of the book of Exodus, and the book of Leviticus for its rituals. The candlestick having seven lamps, he names first, for without light the inner court could not be clearly seen; and so of the other mystical glories already explained as above.... read more

Hebrews 9:1-10The first covenant had also ordinancesThe ancient tabernacleThe writer now proceeds to compare the old and the new covenants with reference to their respective provisions for religious communion between man and God, his purpose being to show the superiority of the priestly ministry of Christ over that of the Levitical priesthood.In the first five verses he gives an inventory of the furniture of the tabernacle pitched in the wilderness; in the next five he describes the religious... read more
