In biblical contexts, a vail refers to a covering or curtain, often used symbolically or literally to denote separation, concealment, or modesty. The concept of a vail is significant in various passages throughout the Bible, serving both practical and theological purposes. Old Testament Usage In the Old Testament, the vail is most prominently featured in the context of the Tabernacle and the Temple. The vail served as a physical barrier separating the Holy Place from the Most Holy Place, or the Holy of Holies, where the Ark of the Covenant was kept. This vail symbolized the separation between God and humanity due to sin. Only the High Priest was permitted to pass beyond the vail, and only once a year on the Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur), to offer sacrifices for the sins of the people (<a href="/leviticus/16-2.htm">Leviticus 16:2, 15</a>). <a href="/exodus/26-33.htm">Exodus 26:33</a> describes the construction of the vail: "Hang the veil under the clasps, and there behind the veil you shall bring the ark of the Testimony, and the veil will divide for you the Holy Place from the Most Holy Place." The vail's presence in the Tabernacle and later in Solomon's Temple (<a href="/2_chronicles/3-14.htm">2 Chronicles 3:14</a>) underscored the holiness of God and the need for atonement and mediation. New Testament Significance In the New Testament, the vail takes on profound theological significance with the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. At the moment of Jesus' death, the vail in the Temple was torn in two from top to bottom (<a href="/matthew/27-51.htm">Matthew 27:51</a>, <a href="/mark/15-38.htm">Mark 15:38</a>, <a href="/luke/23-45.htm">Luke 23:45</a>). This miraculous event symbolized the removal of the barrier between God and humanity, signifying that through Jesus' sacrificial death, believers now have direct access to God. The tearing of the vail represents the new covenant and the fulfillment of the law through Christ. <a href="/hebrews/10-19.htm">Hebrews 10:19-20</a> elaborates on this theme: "Therefore, brothers, since we have confidence to enter the Most Holy Place by the blood of Jesus, by the new and living way opened for us through the curtain of His body." Symbolic and Cultural Aspects Beyond its literal use, the vail also carries symbolic meanings in Scripture. In <a href="/2_corinthians/3-14.htm">2 Corinthians 3:14-16</a> , the Apostle Paul uses the imagery of a vail to describe the spiritual blindness of those who do not recognize Christ: "But their minds were closed. For to this day the same veil remains at the reading of the old covenant. It has not been lifted, because only in Christ can it be removed. And even to this day when Moses is read, a veil covers their hearts. But whenever anyone turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away." In cultural contexts, the vail is also associated with modesty and propriety, as seen in the customs of women covering their heads (<a href="/genesis/24-65.htm">Genesis 24:65</a>, <a href="/1_corinthians/11-5.htm">1 Corinthians 11:5-6</a>). Conclusion The concept of the vail in the Bible is rich with meaning, serving as a powerful symbol of separation and reconciliation. It highlights the holiness of God, the need for atonement, and the transformative work of Christ in bridging the gap between God and humanity.<a name="eas" id="eas"></a><div class="vheading2">Easton's Bible Dictionary</div>(1.) Hebrews mitpahath (<a href="/ruth/3-15.htm">Ruth 3:15</a>; marg., "sheet" or "apron;" R.V., "mantle"). In Isaiah 3:22 this word is plural, rendered "wimples;" R.V., "shawls" i.e., wraps.(2.) Massekah (<a href="/isaiah/25-7.htm">Isaiah 25:7</a>; in Isaiah 28:20 rendered "covering"). The word denotes something spread out and covering or concealing something else (Comp. <a href="/2_corinthians/3-13.htm">2 Corinthians 3:13</a>-15).(3.) Masveh (<a href="/exodus/34-33.htm">Exodus 34:33</a>, 35), the veil on the face of Moses. This verse should be read, "And when Moses had done speaking with them, he put a veil on his face," as in the Revised Version. When Moses spoke to them he was without the veil; only when he ceased speaking he put on the veil (Comp. <a href="/2_corinthians/3-13.htm">2 Corinthians 3:13</a>, etc.).(4.) Paroheth (<a href="/exodus/26-31.htm">Exodus 26:31</a>-35), the veil of the tabernacle and the temple, which hung between the holy place and the most holy (<a href="/2_chronicles/3-14.htm">2 Chronicles 3:14</a>). In the temple a partition wall separated these two places. In it were two folding-doors, which are supposed to have been always open, the entrance being concealed by the veil which the high priest lifted when he entered into the sanctuary on the day of Atonement. This veil was rent when Christ died on the cross (<a href="/matthew/27-51.htm">Matthew 27:51</a>; <a href="/mark/15-38.htm">Mark 15:38</a>; <a href="/luke/23-45.htm">Luke 23:45</a>).(5.) Tza'iph (<a href="/genesis/24-65.htm">Genesis 24:65</a>). Rebekah "took a vail and covered herself." (See also 38:14, 19.) Hebrew women generally appeared in public without veils (<a href="/genesis/12-14.htm">12:14</a>; <a href="/genesis/24-16.htm">24:16</a>; <a href="/genesis/29-10.htm">29:10</a>; <a href="/1_samuel/1-12.htm">1 Samuel 1:12</a>).(6.) Radhidh (Cant. 5:7, R.V. "mantle;<a href="/isaiah/3-23.htm">Isaiah 3:23</a>). The word probably denotes some kind of cloak or wrapper.(7.) Masak, the veil which hung before the entrance to the holy place (<a href="/exodus/26-36.htm">Exodus 26:36</a>, 37). <a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.
