Notes
The earthly Most Holy Place was not open to everyone (see study note on Hebrews 9:3). Now, however, God's presence in heaven (9:11, 24) is accessible because of the sacrificial death of Jesus (9:11–10:18).
The author of Hebrews repeats words and ideas from Hebrews 4:14–16 to highlight and summarize the main section (4:14–10:18). This also introduces the advice that follows. The message of Hebrews is clear: The new covenant, established by the superior work of Jesus, provides a better foundation for approaching God and staying strong in the Christian faith.
