Que signifie ce verset ?

This verse from Hebrews talks about Jesus creating a new and living path for us to reach God, through his own body as the curtain between us and the divine.

Expliqué aux enfants

Imagine you have a secret treehouse in your backyard, but there's a big fence that keeps everyone out. Your friend builds a special ladder right up to the door of the treehouse so anyone can climb it and visit. Jesus is like that friend who built a path for us to get closer to God.

Contexte historique

Application pour aujourd'hui
