But one of my favorite theological concepts is also believing that the kingdom of heaven very much impacts the here and now, that today, that the kingdom is also here. And that comes to us through a line in the New Testament at the crucifixion resurrection of Jesus that's really easy to read over quickly and not capture the meaning. In the story of the crucifixion and resurrection, there's this clip that tells us about the tearing of the veil. It's not explained in the moment. It's never referenced again. But if you know a little bit about history, about Christian history and Jewish tradition, the veil that is being referred to is in the temple. And the veil is what separated God, the physical presence of God, from humans.
