Discovery BoxHebrews 9:3 
Context9:3 And after the second curtain there was a tent called the holy of holies.
Hebrews 6:19
Context6:19 We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, sure and steadfast, which reaches inside behind the curtain, 1
Hebrews 10:20
Context10:20 by the fresh and living way that he inaugurated for us 2 through the curtain, that is, through his flesh, 3
1 sn The curtain refers to the veil or drape in the temple that separated the holy place from the holy of holies.
2 tn Grk “that he inaugurated for us as a fresh and living way,” referring to the entrance mentioned in v. 19.
3 sn Through his flesh. In a bold shift the writer changes from a spatial phrase (Christ opened the way through the curtain into the inner sanctuary) to an instrumental phrase (he did this through [by means of] his flesh in his sacrifice of himself), associating the two in an allusion to the splitting of the curtain in the temple from top to bottom (Matt 27:51; Mark 15:38; Luke 23:45). Just as the curtain was split, so Christ’s body was broken for us, to give us access into God’s presence.
