    Abstract: A growing number of scholars have argued that Christ’s offering in Hebrews is not limited to the cross but extends into heaven; in recent work David Moffitt contends that Christ’s heavenly, atoning offering is perpetual and coextensive with his intercession. This article calls this further step into question, by examining the function of Christ’s heavenly session in Hebrews’ construal of sacrificial process, and by exploring the nature of his heavenly intercession and its relation to his offering and enthronement. It argues that Christ’s session is a hinge, marking an emphatic close to his sacrificial work for the forgiveness of sins, and inaugurating his royal reign and priestly prayer.

    Abstract: It is a commonplace of ancient Near Eastern worldviews that temples have cosmic significance. This understanding persists and develops in the Second Temple period, with numerous texts witnessing to a widely held belief that the Jerusalem temple reflected heaven or the universe. Scholars have largely been content either to recognize a basic relationship, or to distinguish temple-in-heaven from temple-as-universe, sometimes construing the former as “apocalyptic” and the latter as “Hellenistic.” Jonathan Klawans’ work represents an important articulation of this distinction. This article summarizes his contribution, and critiques it on the grounds that it remains overly dichotomous and does not do full justice to the evidence. Instead, a fresh taxonomy is proposed with four key categories, each illustrated from Second Temple and biblical texts. None of these categories is discrete; rather they demarcate a spectrum or scale of ways that ancient Jewish and early Christian writers conceptualized the heaven–temple relationship.

    Keywords: New Testament. Criticism, interpretation, etc. ; Tabernacle ; Heaven New Testament teaching ; Eschatology New Testament teaching
    Abstract: Many scholars hold that the Letter to the Hebrews portrays heaven as God’s true tabernacle,the original from which the Mosaic tabernacle was derived. Recently Philip Church, buildingon work by Lincoln Hurst, has argued that the heavenly tabernacle instead represents God’seschatological dwelling with his people, and that the Mosaic tabernacle (and the templethat followed it) was a prior sketch and foreshadowing of this yet-future reality. Theyadvance a number of important arguments which have not been systematically addressedby those who read the true tabernacle as primarily heavenly in a spatial and ‘vertical’sense. This article examines and rebuts the arguments of Hurst and Church. First, thecase for the ‘eschatological dwelling’ position is outlined; then I make two wider pointsregarding the cosmological presuppositions that underlie this view; next, the meaning ofthe key terminology in Hebrews 8–9, especially ὑπόδειγμα, is examined; finally, Hebrews’perspective on the heavenly tabernacle is articulated with an eye to both cosmology andeschatology. Only by integrating spatial and temporal categories can a satisfactory accountof God’s heavenly dwelling be offered.

    Abstract: Numerous scholars have argued that in Luke-Acts the location of sacred space or divine presence passes from the Jerusalem temple to Jesus, Christian believers, or both; in Acts, this transfer is understood as integral to the universal mission. The present article argues that such studies overlook the important motif of heaven as temple, which plays a role in Jesus’ trial and crucifixion and the Stephen and Cornelius episodes. Using Edward Soja's spatial theory, previous studies’ binary categorisation of temple space is critiqued. The heavenly temple disrupts and reconstitutes understandings of sacred space, and thus undergirds the universal spread of the Way.
