Key Structural Elements

Element ID Description Validation DOA-Specific?
SP120 DOA progression: 7 Lev 16 elements -> 7 Rev positions Moderate YES — the sequential ordering is DOA-specific
SP118 Sanctuary compartmental distribution Moderate Partially — MHP entry is DOA-specific; HP is general
SP119 Vessel function transformation (intercession -> judgment) Strong YES — transformation tracks DOA intercession-to-judgment
SP037 Altar vindication arc spans three judgment sequences Strong Partially — altar is general, but arc tracks DOA progression
SP055 Trumpet-bowl domain correspondence Strong Indirectly — connects DOA-marked trumpet phase to DOA-marked bowl phase
SP036 Fraction escalation: 1/4 -> 1/3 -> total Strong Indirectly — escalation structure matches DOA warning-to-final-judgment
AN022 Rev 8:3-5 censer = Lev 16:12-13 (5 shared elements) Strong YES — exclusively DOA censer procedure
AN040 Ark revealed at 7th trumpet = MHP access on DOA Probable YES — ark access ONLY on DOA
AN043 Rev 15:8 = Lev 16:17 (three-element correspondence) Strong YES — kol adam exclusion ONLY in Lev 16:17
SP054 Glory-filling exclusion composite allusion Strong YES — composite of DOA-specific and inauguration elements
TM100 Triple-genitive: naos tes skenes tou martyriou Strong YES-adjacent — testimony is the DOA judgment standard
TM057 Theophany escalation: 4:5 -> 8:5 -> 11:19 -> 16:18 Strong NO — theophanies are general
IC096 DOA framework: intentional or selective? Unresolved THIS is the question this study resolves

DOA-Specific vs. General Sanctuary Boundary

DOA-SPECIFIC Features (found ONLY in Lev 16):

  1. Two goats — one killed, one sent alive (Lev 16:7-10)
  2. Scapegoat sent to wilderness with sins imputed (Lev 16:20-22)
  3. Kol adam exclusion — "no man shall be in the tabernacle" (Lev 16:17)
  4. Portable censer from brazen altar with incense through the veil (Lev 16:12-13)
  5. Blood on mercy seat — direct application on the kapporeth (Lev 16:14-15)
  6. Annual MHP entry — only on this day (Lev 16:2; Heb 9:7)
  7. Linen garments — baddim, not the regular me'il (Lev 16:4)
  8. Affliction of souls — required under penalty of being cut off (Lev 23:27-29)
  9. Ish itti — the "fit man" who leads scapegoat (Lev 16:21, hapax)
  10. Erets gezerah — "land not inhabited" (Lev 16:22, hapax)

GENERAL Sanctuary Features (not DOA-specific):

  1. Altar (brazen or golden) — present in daily, weekly, and all festivals
  2. Incense — burned daily (Exo 30:7-8)
  3. Priestly garments — general me'il/poderes
  4. Temple/naos — general sanctuary vocabulary
  5. Theophany — Sinai tradition, general divine manifestation
  6. Sacrifice — general offering system
  7. Glory/kavod/doxa — general divine presence
  8. Lampstand — daily ministry furnishing
