REVELATION ITS GRAND CLIMAX AT HAND!/ChapterTwenty Five - The Temple Sanctuary

 The temple here mentioned cannot be any literal temple in Jerusalem, since the last of these was destroyed by the Romans in 70 C.E.  The apostle Paul, however, showd that even before that destruction, there had appeared another temple sanctuary  that would endure right up to our day. This was the great spiritual temle that fulfilled the prophetic types provided by the tabernacle  and later by the temples built in Jerusalm.  It is "the true tent, which Jehovah put up, and not man," and its High Priest is Jesus, whom Paul describes as having already "sat down at the right hand of the throne of the Majestey in the heavens." Its Most Holy is the location of Jehovah's presence in heaven itself. - HEBREWS 8:1,2; 9:11, 24.
