1. Christ, the high priest (11,12)

The tabernacle Moses built teaches God's holiness and man's sinfulness. Only God can open a way for sinful men to come to him. The sacrificial system points to Jesus. He is our great high priest who entered the Most Holy Place in heaven, the very throne room of God, to make atonement for our sins. Earthly priests entered the Most Holy Place in the earthly tabernacle once a year with the blood of an animal sacrifice, but Jesus entered into the presence of God once for all. By his own blood, he obtained our eternal redemption.

2. The cleansing blood (13,14)

The blood of bulls and goats could not clear the conscience of worshipers from guilt; but the blood of Jesus, shed on the cross for our sins as he offered himself unblemished to God, cleanses our consciences from acts which lead to death, so that we may serve the living God without fear, in holiness and righteousness.

Application: Lord, cleanse me today with the blood of Christ and help me to serve you.
One Word: The blood of Christ cleanses
