In the context of <a href="/hebrews/9.htm">Hebrews 9</a>, it refers to the ritual practices of purification and consecration described earlier in the chapter. The author of Hebrews is drawing a parallel between the Old Covenant practices and the New Covenant established through Jesus Christ. The "same way" suggests a consistency in the necessity of blood for purification, a theme deeply rooted in the sacrificial system of the Old Testament.<p><b>he sprinkled with blood</b><br>The act of sprinkling blood was a significant ritual in the Old Testament, symbolizing purification and atonement. In Leviticus, the high priest would sprinkle blood on the altar and other sacred objects to cleanse them from impurity and sin. This act foreshadows the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus, whose blood was shed for the atonement of humanity's sins. The sprinkling of blood signifies the sanctification and dedication of objects and people to God.<p><b>the tabernacle</b><br>The tabernacle was the portable sanctuary used by the Israelites during their wanderings in the desert, as described in Exodus. It was the dwelling place of God among His people and the center of Israelite worship. The tabernacle's construction and the rituals performed there were detailed and specific, emphasizing the holiness required to approach God. The sprinkling of blood on the tabernacle underscored its sanctity and the need for purification before entering God's presence.<p><b>and all the vessels used in worship</b><br>The vessels used in worship included items such as the altar, the Ark of the Covenant, the lampstand, and various utensils. Each of these had specific functions in the worship and sacrificial system. The consecration of these items with blood highlighted their sacred purpose and the necessity of purity in worship. This practice pointed to the greater reality of Christ's sacrifice, which purifies not just physical objects but the hearts of believers, enabling true worship in spirit and truth.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_tabernacle.htm">The Tabernacle</a></b><br>A portable earthly dwelling place for the divine presence, used by the Israelites from the time of Moses until the building of the Temple in Jerusalem.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/m/moses.htm">Moses</a></b><br>The leader of the Israelites who, according to the Old Testament, was commanded by God to build the tabernacle and perform the rituals of purification.<br><br>3. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_vessels.htm">The Vessels</a></b><br>Sacred objects used in the worship and rituals within the tabernacle, which were also sprinkled with blood as part of the purification process.<br><br>4. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_blood.htm">The Blood</a></b><br>Symbolic of purification and atonement, used in the Old Testament sacrificial system to cleanse and sanctify both people and objects.<br><br>5. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_old_covenant.htm">The Old Covenant</a></b><br>The agreement established between God and the Israelites, which included laws and rituals for worship and atonement, including the use of blood for purification.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><b><a href="/topical/t/the_necessity_of_blood_for_purification.htm">The Necessity of Blood for Purification</a></b><br>The use of blood in the Old Testament rituals underscores the seriousness of sin and the need for atonement.

The incident here mentioned belongs, of course, to a later date. It is not expressly recorded in Scripture, but is related by Josephus (<span class= "ital">Ant. iii.</span> 8, ? 6); and, apart from internal probability, might almost be concluded from the narrative of the Pentateuch itself. In <a href="/context/exodus/40-9.htm" title="And you shall take the anointing oil, and anoint the tabernacle, and all that is therein, and shall hallow it, and all the vessels thereof: and it shall be holy.">Exodus 40:9-15</a> we read of the divine injunction that Moses should put the anointing oil not only upon Aaron and his sons, their garments, and the altar, but also upon the Tabernacle and its vessels. In <a href="/context/leviticus/8-10.htm" title="And Moses took the anointing oil, and anointed the tabernacle and all that was therein, and sanctified them.">Leviticus 8:10-12</a> is recorded the fulfilment of this command; but in the later verses of the same chapter we read that the altar was sprinkled with the blood of the sin-offering (<a href="/hebrews/9-15.htm" title="And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.">Hebrews 9:15</a>), and that Moses sprinkled Aaron and his sons and their garments with "the anointing oil and the blood which was upon the altar." Manifestly we may infer that the Tabernacle and its vessels were included in the latter ceremony. Whatever was connected with the covenant which God made with His people must be sprinkled with the blood, which at once typified purification (<a href="/hebrews/9-14.htm" title="How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?">Hebrews 9:14</a>; <a href="/hebrews/9-24.htm" title="For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, which are the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us:">Hebrews 9:24</a>), and ratified the covenant (<a href="/hebrews/9-15.htm" title="And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.">Hebrews 9:15</a>; <a href="/hebrews/9-17.htm" title="For a testament is of force after men are dead: otherwise it is of no strength at all while the testator lives.">Hebrews 9:17</a>). . . . <div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/pulpit/hebrews/9.htm">Pulpit Commentary</a></div><span class="cmt_sub_title">Verse 21.</span> - <span class="cmt_word">Moreover the tabernacle and all the vessels of the ministry be sprinkled in like manner with the blood.</span> This refers to a subsequent occasion, the tabernacle not having been constructed at the time of the inauguration of the covenant, - probably to the dedication of the tabernacle, enjoined <a href="/exodus/40.htm">Exodus 40</a>, and described <a href="/leviticus/8.htm">Leviticus 8</a>. It is true that no sprinkling of the tabernacle or its furniture with blood is mentioned in the Pentateuch; only the anointing of them with oil (<a href="/leviticus/8-10.htm">Leviticus 8:10</a>). But the garments of Aaron and his sons are said on that occasion to have been sprinkled with the blood as well as with the anointing oil (Hebrews 8:30), and Josephus ('Ant.,' 3:08. 6) says that this blood-sprinkling was extended also to the tabernacle and its vessels (<span class="greek">τήν τε σκηνὴν καὶ τὰ περὶ αὐτὴν</span> <span class="greek">σκεύη</span>). Here, as well as in ver. 19, our writer may be supposed to follow the traditional account, with which there is still nothing in the Pentateuch inconsistent. Be it observed again that the force of the argument does not depend on these added details, but on the general principle, abundantly expressed in the original record, which is assorted in the following verse. <span class="p"><br /><br /></span><span class="versiontext"><a href="/commentaries/hebrews/9-21.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a></span><span class="p"><br /><br /><br /></span><a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Greek</div><span class="word">In the same way,</span><br /><span class="grk">ὁμοίως</span> <span class="translit">(homoiōs)</span><br /><span class="parse">Adverb<br /></span><span class="str"><a href="/greek/strongs_3668.htm">Strong's 3668: </a> </span><span class="str2">In like manner, similarly, in the same way, equally.
