Exodus 30:10. and that was in the moneth of September: but this is to be understood with respect to his Priestly ministration, which was but once a yeare, as figuring the sacrifice of Christ once made in the time of his life, and no more, Heb. 9. vers. 7, 8. 11, 12. but upon other necessary occasions, the Priest might enter into the most holy place, as when the Tabernacle was to be taken down, and removed.
