Ezekiel 42:13

Study

       

13 And he said to me: The chambers of the north, and the chambers of the south, which are before the separate building: they are holy chambers, in which the priests shall eat, that approach to the Lord into the holy of holies: there they shall lay the most holy things, and the offering for sin, and for trespass: for it is a holy place.

Commentary

 

Holy of holies

  

The glorification of the Lord's humanity even till it became the divine good which is Jehovah, is described in the internal sense by the process of expiation in Exodus 16 when Aaron entered into the of holy of holies within the veil. In the respective sense, the same process describes the regeneration of mankind, even unto celestial good, which is the good of the inmost heaven. See Veil. It represents the very essential divine good and truth in the Lord's divine human, to which truth from the human was conjoined. The golden altar, the table for the shew-bread, the candlestick, the propitiatory, the ark, and most intimately, the testimony signify the same thing.

See Veil.
