The preacher uses the image of the Jewish high priest who enters the most sacred part of the sanctuary each year on the Day of Atonement (“Yom Kippur”) to offer a sacrifice “with the blood of others” (25) for his sins, and another for the sins of the people.
On the other hand, he states that the high priest Jesus Christ entered once and for all “not into a sanctuary made by human hands, but into heaven itself” (24), and he did so “now… at the end of time… to destroy sins once and for all with his sacrifice” (26).
