    1Now here is the main point: We have such a high priest, who sat down at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens.

    2He serves in the holy place and the true tabernacle, which was set up by the Lord and not by man.

    3Every high priest is appointed to offer gifts and sacrifices, and so it was necessary for this one also to have something to offer.

    4If he were on earth, he would not be a priest, since there are already priests who offer gifts according to the law.

    5These priests serve a copy and shadow of the heavenly things, just as Moses was warned when he was about to set up the tabernacle. For God said, 'See that you make everything according to the pattern shown to you on the mountain.'
