Sarah Ramsey, Are We There Yet?
"The outer court (the cross) makes me ready for Heaven. In the Holy Place, the Spirit empowers me to live on this earth! (144) In the outer court God was cleansing us. In the Holy Place He is filling the clean vessel. In the outer court we are ready to die; in the Holy Place we are empowered to live and to draw near" (145).
Beth Moore, A Woman's Heart: God's Dwelling Place
altar of incense = holy calling of God's priesthood (114) "The Holy Place invites you to partake of God's presence with all of your senses. "He always lives to intercede for them, Hebrews 7:24-25" (115).
"... the bronze altar was the one on which sacrifice perpetually burned... the golden altar was the one on which incense perpetually burned (116).... The altar of incense speaks to us of intercession" (108).
