two veils, and that in Hebrews 6, being the first of which he speaks, must be the first veil, which hung before the Holy, and in Exodus was called a curtain.
When He entered within the veil, He entered His tabernacle, of course the Holy, as that was the first apartment; and our hope, as an anchor of the soul, enters within the veil, i.e., the atonement of both apartments, including both the forgiveness and the blotting out of sins.
Those who hold that Christ entered the Holy of Holies at, and has been ministering therein ever since His ascension, also believe, as of course they must, that the atonement of the Gospel Dispensation is the antitype of the atonement made on the tenth day of the seventh month under the law.
If this is so, the events of the legal tenth day, have had their antitypes during the Gospel Dispensation.
The first event in the atonement service of that day, was the cleansing of the Sanctuary, as we have seen from Leviticus 16.
Then, upon their theory, the Sanctuary of the new covenant was cleansed in the early part of the Gospel Dispensation.
Evidence is not wanting that neither the earth nor Palestine, their Sanctuaries, was then cleansed.
I call them their Sanctuaries, for they are not the Lord's.
But if the Lord's new covenant Sanctuary was then cleansed, the 2300 days ended then; but if they are years, which we all believe, they extend 1810 years beyond the 70 weeks, and the last of those 18 weeks was the first of the new covenant or Gospel Dispensation.
The fact that those days reach 1810 beyond the 70 weeks, and that the Sanctuary could not be cleansed till the end of those days, is demonstration that the antitype of the legal tenth day is not the Gospel Dispensation; Again, if the atonement of that day is typical of the atonement of the Gospel Dispensation, then the atonement made in the Holy, Hebrews 9:6, previous to that day, was finished before the Gospel Dispensation began.
It has been shown that that atonement was made for the forgiveness of sins , and I have found no evidence that such an atonement was made on tenth day of the seventh month.
The Gospel Dispensation began with the preaching of Christ, and if it is the antitype of the legal tenth day,
