Abstract

The heavenly sanctuary motif in the Pauline epistle is not a theme that has received rapt attention. Apart from the cursory references to the sanctuary metaphors in Corinthians and Ephesians, much is hardly said, if ever at all, of the development of the sanctuary motif in the Epistles.This study endeavours to show the presence and avid awareness of theauthor of the Epistles of the heavenly sanctuary motif. The reader will beshown the depth and coherence with which the sanctuary motif is dealt with, and the importance it played in the development of the theology andeschatological thrust of the writings under consideration.
