Have you ever wished there were been cameras back in Bible days--so we modernites could "see the action?" I mean, for us earthoids it's just not the same to read about the six days of creation...or the thunder and smoke on Sinai...or the whirlwind that took Elijah to heaven.
One of the most suspenseful narratives in Scripture, in my opinion, is the detailing of the proceedings on the Day of Atonement. Think of it: this was the one time all year for the High Priest could actually enter into the presence of God (in the Holy of Holies) to make intercession and atonement for the nation. Listen to how the narrative starts: "Tell...Aaron not to come whenever he chooses into the Most Holy Place behind the curtain in front of the atonement cover on the ark, or else he will die." Talk about intrigue!
There's a reason Aaron couldn't just go in at any old time. There's a reason no pictures were left behind of the Ark, or of the Holy of Holies. There's a reason we don't have any pictures of what heaven looks like. The reason is simply this: God is a God of holiness and majesty. He sets the rules, and we abide by them. Period.
