Contemplation (verse 38)
The apostle Paul presents us with a theological concept of the tearing down of the veil of the temple, in his epistle to the Hebrews; that is the opening up for us, of the heavenly sanctuaries, through the sacrifice of the Cross. The veil that is a divider between the holy place and the Holy of Holies, refers to the inability of man to enjoy the divine heavenly sanctuaries. The Lord Christ came to open up the way to heaven by His blood, to enter with us into the bosom of His Father, to enjoy His sanctuaries.
+ Fr Tadros Malaty
The veil of the temple was torn in two, to let our souls and spirits cross over to God, to see Him face-to-face, and to behold the hidden secrets
+ St Ambrose

Dear Lord, help me understand the significance of Your death and resurrection, of my salvation, of what You have gifted me with and are waiting for me to partake in. Help me have a personal relationship with You, a real one. Amen.
