And Christ being come, chief priest of the coming good things, through the greater and more perfect tabernacle not made with hands -- that is, not of this creation -- Heb 9:11 YLT

What is that in bold speaking of?

In the current heaven in which God dwells there is the temple. It is the real temple in which that which was on earth was merely a copy, and therefore a greater and more perfect tabernacle not made with hands.

In the new Heaven and Earth there is no tabernacle or temple.

I would assume tabernacle = dwelling place.

Eph 2:19 Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;
Eph 2:20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;
Eph 2:21 In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:
Eph 2:22 In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.

I was looking and thinking maybe it should be punctuated differently.

And Christ, being come, chief priest of the coming good things, through the greater and more perfect tabernacle not made with hands -- that is, not of this creation -- Heb 9:11 YLT

Kind of as;

so also the Christ did not glorify himself to become chief priest, but He who spake unto him: 'My Son thou art, I to-day have begotten thee;' [In the greater and more perfect tabernacle] as also in another place He saith, 'Thou art a priest -- to the age, according to the order of Melchisedek;' who in the days of his flesh both prayers and supplications unto Him who was able to save him from death -- with strong crying and tears -- having offered up, and having been heard in respect to that which he feared, through being a Son, did learn by the things which he suffered -- the obedience, <[ unto death, dead] and having been made perfect, <[firstborn from the dead Col 1:18 Rev 1:5 Above, I to-day have begotten thee, in the greater and more perfect tabernacle] he did become to all those obeying him a cause of salvation age-during, having been addressed by God a chief priest, according to the order of Melchisedek,

Of the coming good things, SEE - 2 Cor 5:1-5

Verse 5 - to this self same thing - The greater and more perfect tabernacle Christ received we also will receive. V's 1-4???

We are living stones in the greater and more perfect tabernacle. 1 Peter 2:5

His body.

Was this the body of the resurrected Jesus of Nazareth? The Christ?

And Christ being come, chief priest of the coming good things, through the greater and more perfect tabernacle not made with hands -- that is, not of this creation -- Heb 9:11

so also the Christ did not glorify himself to become chief priest, but He who spake unto him: 'My Son thou art, I to-day have begotten thee;' Heb 5:5

On that day did he beget him by raising him, in tabernacle (body) no more to return to corruption?

God hath in full completed this to us their children, having raised up Jesus, as also in the second Psalm it hath been written, My Son thou art -- I to-day have begotten thee. 'And that He did raise him up out of the dead, no more to return to corruption, he hath said thus -- I will give to you the faithful kindnesses of David; Acts 13:33,34

Hebrews 9:11 refers to His ascension Hebrews 9:12 to be our mediator, Hebrews 9:24.
