similar to the prayer of Jesus. This can also be identified
through the prayer of Peter and Paul. The only difference
between the New Testament prayer and Moses’ prayer relies
upon the Most Holy Place. Only Moses was allowed to
enter the Old Testament’s Most Holy Place. Not even the
high priest Aaron was allowed to en-ter the Most Holy Place
(Leviticus 16:2). He was only allowed to enter the Most Holy
Place on the 10th of July.
However, because of Jesus’s death, we are all able to
approach the Most Holy Place. The Most Holy Place is not
only exclusive to the high priests. Anyone can experience the
Glory of God. The Lord has opened the way for us.
“by a new and living way opened for us through the curtain,
that is, his body” (Hebrews 10:20)
The Tabernacle of Moses does not exist anymore. There
no longer is the temple that was built over the 7-year period
by Solomon. No more temple of Zerubbabel, or the temple
of Herod. The only temple that remains is us. The temple of
the Old Testament has crumbled down, but the bodies of the
believers have been transformed into a temple today.
