So, in essence, by this inheritance the concept of Christianity [messiah]
remained dormant; deliverance must come through the Hebrew nation or
from the seed of Abraham.

the old covenant and promise given to Abraham. The messianic message
transcended across generational lines and predetermined a just end.
Hebrews, Muslims and now Christians anticipate a just conclusion
according to their thinking. According to past traditions, each sect desires a
just conclusion to the same prophecy. The difference in belief is the means

fulfill the messianic mission.
So, “The Holy Spirit was showing by this that the way into the Most Holy
Place had not yet been disclosed as long as the first tabernacle was still
standing. This is an illustration for the present time, indicating that the gifts
and sacrifices being offered were not able to clear the conscious of the
worshipper. They are only a matter of food and drink and various
