Now The word "Now" serves as a transitional term, linking the previous discussion in Hebrews 8 about the superiority of the new covenant with the detailed examination of the old covenant's practices. It signals a shift in focus, inviting the reader to consider the historical and theological context of the old covenant. This transition is crucial for understanding the continuity and fulfillment of God's plan through Jesus Christ. the first covenant had regulations for worship and also an earthly sanctuary (1) The subject commenced in the last chapter (Hebrews 9:1-6) is continued here. The mention of the "more excellent ministry" led to the description of the new covenant with which it is united (Hebrews 9:6-13). This verse, then, attaches itself to the fifth and sixth verses of Hebrews 8 (Hebrews 8:5-6): "Even the first (covenant), then, had ordinances of divine service and its sanctuary, of this world." The "service" is spoken of again in Hebrews 9:6; the "ordinances" in Hebrews 9:10, where they are called "carnal." Very similar is the language here, for the words so emphatically standing at the close of the verse are probably descriptive not of the "sanctuary" only, but also of the "ordinances." Both place and ministrations belonged to this world, and thus stand in contrast with "the heavenly things," of which the Tabernacle was a token and shadow. (See Note on Hebrews 8:5.) The ordinary Greek text (here following the first printed Greek Testament) has "the first Tabernacle," and this reading was followed by Tyndale and Coverdale. All ancient MSS. omit the word; and, as in a long succession of verses "covenant" has been the leading thought, the rendering of the Authorised version is certainly correct. . . . Verse 1. - Then verily (or, now indeed) the first covenant also (or, even the first covenant) had ordinances of divine service, and a worldly sanctuary (rather its sanctuary of this world (τὸ ἅγιον κοσμεκόν). The definite article points to the well-known one of the Mosaic dispensation, which, unlike the true one, was in its bearings, as well as locally and materially, of this world only). This sanctuary itself is now first described in necessary preparation for an account of priestly ministrations in it.Parallel Commentaries ...
