“By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;”
By the new and living way that he opened for us through the curtain (katapetasma), that is, through his flesh — Christ's body-flesh (sarx) is the veil through which access is granted; his death tore the physical temple curtain (Matthew 27:51) and opened the ultimate curtain separating humanity from God's presence. New (prosphatos) and living (zōsa) describe a way that is recently opened and vital with resurrection power.
