Hebrews 9:3-5

Good News Translation

^3 (A)Behind the second curtain was the tent called the Most Holy Place. ^4 (B)In it were the gold altar for the burning of incense and the Covenant Box all covered with gold and containing the gold jar with the manna in it, Aaron's stick that had sprouted leaves, and the two stone tablets with the commandments written on them. ^5 (C)Above the Box were the winged creatures representing God's presence, with their wings spread over the place where sins were forgiven. But now is not the time to explain everything in detail.
