العبرانيين ٩:٢١

Greek, "And, moreover, in like manner." The sprinkling of the tabernacle with blood is added by inspiration here to the account in Exo 30:25-30; Exo 40:9-10, which mentions only Moses' anointing the tabernacle and its vessels. In Lev 8:10, Lev 8:15, Lev 8:30, the sprinkling of blood upon Aaron and his garments, and upon his sons, and upon the altar, is mentioned as well as the anointing, so that we might naturally infer, as JOSEPHUS has distinctly stated, that the tabernacle and its vessels were sprinkled with blood as well as being anointed: Lev 16:16, Lev 16:20, Lev 16:33, virtually sanctions this inference. The tabernacle and its contents needed purification (Ch2 29:21).

The apostle, having declared the Old Testament dispensation antiquated and vanishing away, proceeds to let the Hebrews see the correspondence there was between the Old Testament and the New; and that whatever was excellent in the Old was typical and representative of the New, which therefore must as far excel the Old as the substance does the shadow. The Old Testament was never intended to be rested in, but to prepare for the institutions of the gospel. And here he treats, I. Of the tabernacle, the place of worship (Heb 9:1-5). II. Of the worship and services performed in the tabernacle (Heb 9:6, Heb 9:7). III. He delivers the spiritual sense and the main design of all (Heb 9:8 to the end).

9:21 he sprinkled blood: See Exod 24:3-8; Lev 16:14-19.
