Verse 2

2. A minister A performer of sacred rites.

The sanctuary Literally, the holy places, namely, in the tabernacle or temple.

The true tabernacle The genuine, real tabernacle, of which the earthly tabernacle is but a shadow, a copy after a pattern in the skies, Hebrews 8:5.

Pitched A tabernacle is simply a tent; and the Greek word for pitched is fastened together; designating the fastening of the different parts so as to form or construct the tent. Our word, to pitch, rather refers to fixing or pitching upon the spot and placing the tent there. Hence the Greek term describes, more beautifully than does the English, the formation or building by divine power of the heavenly tabernacle.

Not man Who built, indeed, the earthly, but not the heavenly, tabernacle.
