When Christ was crucified, the inner vail of the temple was rent in twain from top to bottom, which event signified that the ceremonial system of the sacrificial offerings was at an end forever, that the one great and final sacrifice was made in the Lamb of God, slain for the sins of the world. {2SP 123.2}

Da Kristus blev korsfæstet, revnede det indre forhæng i templet fra øverst til nederst. Dette betegnede, at ceremoniloven og offertejenesten var for evig til ende, at det store sidste offer var fuldbragt, idet Guds lam blev slagtet fra verdens synder.
