DISCUSSION QUESTIONS

This is a study guide commentary, which means that you are responsible for your own interpretation of the Bible. Each of us must walk in the light we have. You, the Bible, and the Holy Spirit are priority in interpretation. You must not relinquish this to a commentator.

These discussion questions are provided to help you think through the major issues of this section of the book. They are meant to be thought provoking, not definitive.

1. Why does the author of Hebrews discuss the ancient tabernacle of the wilderness?

2. Why is Heb_9:9 theologically significant?

3. Is there a real physical tabernacle in Heaven that Christ actually entered and offered a sacrifice?

4. What two connotations of "covenant" does the author use in Heb_9:15-18?
