1. Jesus is priest of the true tabernacle (1-5)

The system of worship given in the Law of Moses prescribed many different types of sacrifices and offerings, and it gave precise instructions for how to build the tabernacle (tent) and its furnishings. This tabernacle was a symbol of the real, spiritual tabernacle, which is God's throne room in heaven. The priestly service Jesus performs is not in a copy, but in the true tabernacle, where he sits at the right hand of God.

2. A new covenant (6-13)

The new ministry carried out by Jesus comes with a new covenant, which makes the old covenant obsolete. The blessings of the new covenant were prophesied by Jeremiah and are quoted here. Fundamentally, it would be based on forgiveness of sins (12). God writes this covenant on our hearts by the Holy Spirit and we can have a one-to-one relationship with God.
