* Truly , then , the first tabernacle also had ordinances of service , and the earthly holy place . * For the first tabernacle was prepared , in which was both the lampstand and the table , and the setting out of the loaves , which is called holy . * But behind the second veil is a tabernacle , that called Holy of Holies , * having a golden altar of incense , and the ark of the covenant covered around on all sides with gold , in which was the golden pot having the manna , and Aaron 's rod that budded , and the tablets of the covenant ; * and above it the cherubs of glory overshadowing the mercy-seat (about which now is not time to speak piece by piece ). * And these having been prepared thus , the priests go into the first tabernacle through all , completing the services . * But into the second the high priest goes alone once in the year , not without blood , which he offers for himself and the ignorances of the people ; * the Holy Spirit signifying by this that the way of the Holies has not yet been made manifest , the first tabernacle still having standing ; * which was a parable for the present time , according to which both gifts and sacrifices are offered , but as regards conscience , not being able to perfect the one serving , * but only on foods and drinks , and various washings , and fleshly ordinances , until the time of setting things right has been imposed .
