Question:
Heb. 9:12
12
Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us. (Hebrews 9:12)
. Is it legitimate to infer that this verse speaks of our Lord, entering the holies as
a
separate spirit before He rose and ascended? Mαθ.
Answer:
Not only is there not a tittle of scriptural evidence pointing in that direction; but other scriptures speak of His entrance, not in that transitional condition, but when become forever high priest after the order of Melchizedek. Compare especially
Heb. 6:20
20
Whither the forerunner is for us entered, even Jesus, made an high priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec. (Hebrews 6:20)
. Nor is this all. For the verse itself precludes all but one entrance to this end, though all admit our Lord’s presence in the disembodied state in Paradise. But the word here is that “by His own blood He entered
once for all
into the holies, having found an everlasting redemption.” This is simple, plain, and decisive.
