I just read this post a few minutes ago - wow!The post refers to Hebrews 10:19-20 and reads:
Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus,
By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;
I like to read Bible scriptures first in the KJV and then in the NIV. I think the footnote in the NIV is quite insightful. It says, "When Jesus died, the curtain separating the Holy Place from the Most Holy Place was "torn in two from top to bottom" (Mark 15:38). The curtain symbolizes the body of Christ in terms of suffering: Like the curtain, his body was torn to open the way into the divince presence."
The other scripture she notes in her post is John 20:26-27 which reads:
And after eight days again his disciples were within, and Thomas with them: then came Jesus, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst, and said, Peace be unto you.
Then saith he to Thomas, Reach hither thy finger, and behold my hands; and reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into my side: and be not faithless, but believing.
This connection between feeling the marks in the Savior's body and the temple was made to me while I was on my mission. A group of Church members were passing through Guatemala and happened to stay in the same hotel as we were (we were at a Zone Conference). They talked of how the Savior ministered to the Nephites and how it relates to the temple. It was eye-opening to say the least.
