High Priest (entering the Most Holy Place)
So he measured the length thereof, twenty cubits; and the breadth, twenty cubits, before the temple: and he said unto me, This is the most holy place. Ezekiel 41:4
The most holy place was where God's presence dwelt and where the high priest entered with blood for the people. The New Testament teaches that this room was a pattern of heaven itself, which Jesus Christ entered as our High Priest with His own blood.
