Hebrews 8:3-5

Evangelical Heritage Version

³ For every high priest is appointed to offer gifts and sacrifices, and for that reason this priest also needed to have something that he offered.

⁴ If this priest were on earth, he would not even be a priest, because there are priests^[a] who are designated by the law to offer gifts. ⁵ They serve at a place that is a copy and shadow of the heavenly sanctuary, a place exactly like that about which Moses was told when he was about to complete the tent.^[b] For God said, “See to it that you make everything according to the pattern shown to you on the mountain.”^[c]
