The Heavenly Sanctuary-Figurative Or Real?
William G. Johnsson
; Andrews University, Berrien Springs, Michigan, SAD
Abstract
In this article, we shall address the most basic issue of under standing Hebrews: Is the cultic language of Hebrews to be interpreted metaphorically (spiritually) or realistically (literally)? We shall proceed in three steps: (1) the case for a metaphorical interpretation, (2) a critique of the metaphorical viewpoint, and (3) the case for a realistic interpreta tion.
Keywords
: Hebrews; Heavenly-Sanctuary; metaphorical-interpretation; realistic-interpretation
