But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building;

Ver. 11. Of good things to come] i.e. Of spirituals that were expected as things to come, when Christ came with a cornucopia, a horn of salvation in his band. The Latins call prosperous things Res secundas, things to come.

A more perfect tabernacle] i.e. His human nature, not made with hands, nor of this building, that is, not by the power of nature, by the ordinary course of generation.
