But we cannot now speak about these things in detail. 6 When these things were arranged this way, the priests would regularly enter the first room of the tabernacle to perform their ministry. 7 But only the high priest entered the second room, and only once a year, never without blood, which he offered for himself and for the sins the people had committed in ignorance. 8 By this, the Holy Spirit was showing that the way into the Most Holy Place had not yet been disclosed as long as the first tabernacle was still standing.
