What does the tearing of the veil symbolize for believers?

Answered in 1 source

The tearing of the veil symbolizes the removal of barriers between God and believers, granting direct access to Him.

The tearing of the veil at Jesus' death represents the removal of the barrier that sin created between God and humanity. It signifies that, through Christ's sacrifice, believers can approach the throne of grace with confidence (Hebrews 4:16). No longer do they need an earthly mediator; Christ Himself is the mediator of a new covenant (Hebrews 9:15). This transition reflects the fullness of what God intended for His people — a restored relationship where believers meet with Him directly, participating in His grace and mercy without fear of judgment.
