Read for This Week’s Study
Exodus 25:8-9,40; Hebrews 8:1-6; Leviticus 16:21,29-34; Leviticus 23:26-32; Hebrews 9:23-28; Daniel 7:1-28:1-28:9-10.
Memory Text:
“We have such a High Priest, who is seated at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens, a Minister of the sanctuary and of the true tabernacle which the Lord erected, and not man” (Hebrews 8:1-2, NKJV).
Shortly after the disappointment of October 22, 1844, some of the Millerites came to understand that the 2,300-day prophecy didn’t deal with the second coming of Jesus but with Christ’s work in the heavenly sanctuary.
The cleansing of the sanctuary in heaven was the fulfillment of the earthly cleansing of the earthly sanctuary. To understand this important truth better, look at the parallel between Daniel 7:1-28:1-28 and Daniel 8:1-27:1-27:
Daniel 7:1-28:1-28
Daniel 8:1-27:1-27</a> Babylon —— Media-Persia Media-Persia Greece Greece Rome Rome Judgment in heaven Cleansing of the sanctuary
These parallels show the nature of the cleansing of the sanctuary, the pre-Advent judgment. This week we explore Christ’s ministry in heaven.
*Study this week’s lesson, based on chapters 22–24 and 28 of The Great Controversy, to prepare for Sabbath, May 25.
