philsull, What did the tearing of the temple curtain (veil) symbolize? It symbolised Christ gaining open access to God for us. Sinners previouisly could not appraoch God in the Holy of holies and the Highh Priest entered only onece a year with great trepedation. See Epehsians 2:18; cf Hebrews 9:8; 10:19-22. It also prefigured the coming destruction of the Temple in 70 A.D. "The time is coming when neither on this mountain, nor in Jersualem will you worship the Father." (John 4:21) See also cf John 4:23-24; Hebrews 9:11; Rev 21:22. Emmaus |
