Hebrews 6:19 This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and steadfast, and which enters the Presence behind the veil,
Because of the promise and oath of God that our salvation is secure, we have a confident hope. And this hope becomes personified as Jesus Christ. He is an anchor that is already firmly fixed in the heavens behind the veil. In the Old Testament, no one could go behind the veil in the tabernacle except the high priest and then only once a year. Now we have the first human being raised from the dead, Jesus Christ the God-Man, anchored there as our forerunner. As the author describes it this anchor is both sure and steadfast.
