Having made it clear that there is only one sacrifice for sin, the writer continues with the picture of the most holy place in the temple, where only the high priest could enter each year with the blood of the sacrifice for sins. He reminds the believers that they now worship God in his presence as if they were standing in the most holy place.

# through the curtain
2017-06-21 20:45:09 +00:00
2017-06-21 20:50:04 +00:00
The curtain in the earthly temple represents the separation between people and God's true presence. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])

# by means of his flesh
2017-06-21 20:45:09 +00:00
2017-06-21 20:50:04 +00:00
Here "flesh" stands for the body of Jesus, and his body stands for his sacrificial death. AT: "by means of his death" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy]])
# we have a great priest over the house of God
This must be translated in such a way as to make it clear that Jesus is this "great priest."
# over the house
"in charge of the house"
# the house of God
This speaks about God's people as if they were a literal house. AT: "all the people of God" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])
# let us approach
Here "approach" stands for worshiping God, as a priest would go up to God's altar to sacrifice animals to him. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy]])
# with true hearts
"with faithful hearts" or "with honest hearts." Here "hearts" stands for the genuine will and motivation of the believers. AT: "with sincerity" or "sincerely" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy]])
# in the full assurance of faith
"and with a confident faith" or "and trusting completely in Jesus"
# having our hearts sprinkled clean
This can be stated in active form. AT: "as if had he made our hearts clean with his blood" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-activepassive]])
# hearts sprinkled clean
2017-09-29 17:00:38 +00:00
Here "hearts" stands for the conscience, the awareness of right and wrong. Being made clean stands for being forgiven and being given the status of righteousness. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit]])
2017-06-21 20:50:04 +00:00
# sprinkled
Sprinkling was a symbolic action done by the priests by which they applied the benefits of the covenant to people and to objects. See how you translated this in [Hebrews 9:19](../09/18.md). (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/translate-symaction]])
# having our bodies washed with pure water
This can be stated in active form. AT: "as if he had washed our bodies in pure water" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-activepassive]])
# our bodies washed with pure water
2017-06-24 00:15:21 +00:00
If the translator understands this phrase as referring to Christian baptism, then "water" is literal, not figurative. But if water is taken as literal, then "pure" is figurative, standing for the spiritual purity that baptism is said here to accomplish. The "washing" stands for the believer being made acceptable to God. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])
