But now, in repeating the same things, he says about the anointed tabernacle and the things that were in it that were sanctified with the same anointing and became holy. And the altar of burnt offerings, of which he had said before that he became \"saint of the saint,\" now says that with that same anointing he becomes \"saint of the saints.\" From which it follows that it means the same, what had been called \"saint of the saint\" that what is called \"saint of saints\", and, therefore, that all those anointed things, such as the tabernacle and everything that had in it, which had previously been called \"sancta sanctorum\" they mean the same as what is now called \"sancta\" and none of these things after that anointing is called only \"saint of the saint\", but also \"saint of saints\" , like the altar of holocausts. From this it follows that there is no difference, as far as this name is concerned, between the things that were inside the veil, where the ark of the covenant was, and the other things that were outside, except for the fact that the things inside were called \"sancta sanctorum\" or \"saint of saints.\" And they were called like this even before the anointing. Instead, the other things were sanctified by the anointing so that they could be given that name. And discussing what all this means takes time.<br/><i>— QUESTIONS ON EXODUS, Q. 173 (tr. J.
