Hebrews 9:8 in context

  1. 6Now these things having been thus prepared, the priests go in continually into the first tabernacle, accomplishing the services;
  2. 7but into the second the high priest alone, once in the year, not without blood, which he offereth for himself, and for the errors of the people:
  3. 8the Holy Spirit this signifying, that the way into the holy place hath not yet been made manifest, while the first tabernacle is yet standing;
  4. 9which is a figure for the time present; according to which are offered both gifts and sacrifices that cannot, as touching the conscience, make the worshipper perfect,
  5. 10being only (with meats and drinks and divers washings) carnal ordinances, imposed until a time of reformation.
