21 Then he brought the Ark into the tabernacle and put the curtain+ of the screen in place and shut off approach to the ark of the testimony,+ just as Jehovah had commanded Moses.

2 And Jehovah proceeded to say to Moses: “Speak to Aaron your brother, that he should not at all times come into the holy place*+ inside the curtain,+ in front of the cover* which is upon the Ark, that he may not die;+ because in a cloud+ I shall appear over the cover.+

6 Then the priests brought in the ark+ of the covenant of Jehovah to its place,+ to the innermost room of the house, the Most Holy, to underneath the wings of the cherubs.+

3 But behind the second curtain+ was the tent [compartment] called “the Most Holy.”*+

12 he entered, no, not with* the blood+ of goats and of young bulls, but with his own blood,+ once for all time into the holy place and obtained* an everlasting deliverance* [for us].+

24 For Christ entered, not into a holy place made with hands,+ which is a copy of the reality,*+ but into heaven itself,+ now to appear before the person of God for us.+
