The term parochet is used in the Bible to describe the curtain that separated the Kodesh Hakodashim Holy of Holies from the main hall of the Temple in Jerusalem . Its use in synagogues is a reference to the centrality of the Temple to Jewish worship. Several of the 39 categories of activity prohibited on Shabbat prohibited Shabbos activities derive from the manufacture and repair of the original parochet. The parochet used in the Temple was made from wool and linen, and was exempt from the laws of Shatnez , which apply only to clothing worn on the body, not to furnishings in a building.

Seventh day Adventism In Seventh day Adventist theology , the heavenly sanctuary teaching asserts that many aspects of the Hebrew Tabernacle Judaism tabernacle or sanctuary are representative of heaven ly realities. In particular, Jesus is regarded as a Kohen Gadol High Priest who provides cleansing for human sins by the sacrificial shedding of his blood. The doctrine grew out of the church s interpretation of the 1844 Great Disappointment . As a whole, it is unique to Seventh day Adventism, although other Christians share many of the typology theology typological identifications made by the epistle to the Hebrews . One major aspect which is completely unique to Adventism is that the day of atonement is a type or foreshadowing of the investigative judgment . Technically, the heavenly sanctuary is an umbrella term which includes the investigative judgment, Christ s ministry in heaven before then, the understanding of bibleverse Daniel 8 14 KJV , etc. However it is often spoken of interchangeably with the investigative judgment. The Kodesh Hakodashim earthly Most Holy Place was entered once a year by the Kohen Gadol High Priest on the Yom Kippur Day of Atonement to offer Atonement in Judaism atonement for the Israelite s. Adventists believe this is a type of Jesus ministry in heaven. In 1844 Jesus moved from the Holy Place of the heavenly sanctuary into the Holy of Holies to begin a final atonement for humanity. This is understood as a change in two phases of Jesus ministry. Official position One of the church s official 28 Fundamentals 28 fundamental beliefs is 24. Christ s Ministry in the Heavenly Sanctuary There is a sanctuary in heaven, the true tabernacle which the Lord set up and not man.

Even haShetiya or Rock Arabic language Arabic transliterated translit. Sakhrah , Hebrew language Hebrew transliterated translit. Sela is the name of the rock at the heart of the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem . It is also known as the Pierced Stone because it has a small hole on the southeastern corner that enters a cavern beneath the rock, known as the Well of Souls . It is believed by some to have been the location of the Holy of Holies in the Temple, and is the holiest site in Judaism. Midrash Tanhuma, chapter 10 Jewish tradition views it as the spiritual junction of heaven and Earth. Jews traditionally face it while praying. Location The rock is located towards the centre of the Temple Mount , an artificial platform built and expanded over many centuries. The current shape is the result of an expansion by Herod the Great on top of vaults over a hill, generally believed to be Moriah Mount Moriah . The rock constitutes the peak of this now hidden hill, which is also the highest in early biblical Jerusalem, looming over the City of David . There is some controversy among secular scholars about equating Mount Moriah, the Temple Mount and the Foundation Stone as the location where events occurred according to the Biblical narrative. Early Jewish writings assist in confirming that the Dome of the Rock , completed in 691, is the site of the Kodesh Hakodashim Holy of Holies and therefore the location of the Foundation Stone.
