VAIL, THE SACRED
Torrey's New Topical Textbook
Moses commanded to make
Made by Bezaleel for the tabernacle
Suspended from four pillars of shittim wood overlaid with gold
Hung between the holy and most holy place
Designed to conceal the ark, mercy seat, and the symbol of the divine presence
Made by Solomon for the temple
Was rent at the death of our Lord
THE HIGH PRIEST
Alone allowed to enter within
Allowed to enter but once a year
Could not enter without blood
ILLUSTRATIVE
Of the obscurity of the Mosaic age
Of the flesh of Christ which concealed his divinity
(Rending of,) of the death of Christ which opened heaven to saints
