And Jehovah will say to Moses, Speak to Aaron thy brother, and he shall not come in every time into the holy place within the vail at the face of the cover which is upon the ark; and he shall not die for I will be seen in the cloud upon the cover. In this shall Aaron come in to the holyplace, with a bullock, the son of a cow, for sin, and a ram for a burnt-offering. The holy linen tunic shall be put on, and the linen drawers shall be upon his flesh, and with a linen girdle shall he be girded, and with a linen turban shall he be wound round: these the holy garments; and he washed his flesh in water and put them on. read more.
And from the assembly of the sons of Israel he shall take two he goats of the goats for sin, and one ram for a burnt-offering. And Aaron brought near the bullock of sin, which was to him, and he expiated for himself and for his house. And he took the two he goats and made them stand before Jehovah, at the door of the tent of appointment And Aaron gave lots upon the two he goats; one lot for Jehovah, and one lot for the goat set apart. And Aaron brought the he goat which upon it came up the lot for Jehovah, and he did it for the sin. And the he goat which upon it came up the lot for the goat set apart, shall stand living before Jehovah, to expiate upon him, to send him for a goat set apart to the desert And Aaron brought near the bullock of the sin, which was to him, and he expiated for himself, and for his house, and he slaughtered the bullock of the sin which was to him. And he took a fire pan full of coals of fire from the altar from before Jehovah, and he filled his hands with incense of aromatics beaten small, and brought within the vail: And he gave the incense upon the fire before Jehovah, and the cloud of incense covered the vail which was upon the testimonies; and he shall not die. And he took from the blood of the bullock, and sprinkled with his finger upon the face of the cover eastward, and before the cover he shall sprinkle seven times from the blood with his finger. And he slaughtered the he goat of the sin which was for the people, and he brought its blood within the vail, and he did its blood as he did to the blood of the bullocks; and he sprinkled it upon the cover and before the cover. And he expiated for the holy place from the uncleanness of the sons of Israel, and from their transgression for all their sins: and so shall he do for the tent of appointment, dwelling with them in the midst of their uncleanness. And no man shall be in the tent of appointment in his coming in to expiate in the holy place, till his coming out, he expiated for himself and for his house, and for all the convocation of Israel. And he went forth to the altar which is before Jehovah and expiated upon it; and he took from the blood of the bullock, and from the blood of the he goat, and gave upon the horns of the altar round about And he sprinkled upon it from the blood round about with his finger, seven times, and cleansed it, and consecrated it, from the uncleanness of the sons of Israel. And he finished expiating the holy place, and the tent of appointment, and the altar, and he brought the living he goat. And Aaron placed his two hands upon the head of the living he goat and confessed over him all the iniquities of the sons of Israel, and all their transgressions, and all their sins, and gave them upon the head of the he goat, and sent by the hand of a fit man to the desert And the he goat lifted up upon him all their iniquities to a desert land: and he sent the he goat into the desert And Aaron shall come to the tent of appointment, and he put off the garments of linen which he put on in his going in to the holy place, and he left them there.

And the fat of the sin he shall burn upon the altar. And he sending away the goat set apart, shall wash his garments and wash his flesh in water, and after this he shall go in to the camp. And the bullock of sin and the he goat of sin, from which he brought their blood to expiate in the holy place, he shall bring forth to without the camp, and they shall burn in fire their skins, and their flesh, and their dung. And he burning them shall wash his clothes and wash his flesh in water, and after this he shall come in to the camp. And it was to you for a law forever: in the seventh month, in the tenth of the month ye shall humble your souls, and all work ye shall not do, the native and the stranger sojourning in the midst of you. For in that day he shall expiate for you, to cleanse you from all your sins: before Jehovah shall ye be clean. And this is a Sabbath of Sabbath to you, and ye humbled your souls, a law forever. And the priest expiated whom he shall anoint and whose hand he shall fill, to be priest instead of his father: and he put on the garments of linen of the holy place.

For every soul which shall not be humbled in, that same day, and it was cut off from its people. read more.
And any soul which shall do any work in that same day, I destroyed that soul from the midst of its people. Any work ye shall not do: a law forever to your generations in all your dwellings.

And in the tenth to this seventh month a holy calling shall be to you: ye afflicted your souls: all work ye shall not do. And bring ye near a burnt-offering to Jehovah, an odor of sweetness: one bullock, son of a cow, one ram, seven lambs, sons of a year; blameless they shall be to you. And their gift fine flour mingled with oil, three tenths for the bullock, two tenths for the one ram, read more.
A tenth tenth for the one lamb, the seven lambs: One he goat of the goats for sin, besides the sin of expiations, and the burnt-offering of continuance, and its gift and their libations.

And a suitable time having intervened, and sailing being already dangerous, for the fast had already passed by, Paul advised,

And for this he ought, as for the people, so also for himself, to bring in for sins.

For every command spoken according to law by Moses, to all the people, having taken the blood of calves and he-goats, with water, and scarlet wool, and hyssop, and also the book, and he sprinkled all the people,




And no man shall be in the tent of appointment in his coming in to expiate in the holy place, till his coming out, he expiated for himself and for his house, and for all the convocation of Israel.

And any work ye shall not do in that self-same day, for it is a day of expiation, to expiate for you before Jehovah your God.



And Aaron brought near the bullock of the sin, which was to him, and he expiated for himself, and for his house, and he slaughtered the bullock of the sin which was to him.




And these thus prepared, truly to the first tent the priests always came in, to complete the divine services. And into the second the chief priest alone once a year, not without blood, which he brings near for himself, and the errors of the people: This the Holy Spirit designating, the way of the holies had not yet been made manifest, the first tent yet having a standing: read more.
Which a parable for the time placed in, according to which both gifts and sacrifices are brought near, not being able for consciousness to perfect him serving; Only in food and drinks, and different immersions, and precepts of the flesh, being placed till the time of amendment. And Christ being present, a chief priest of good things about to be, by a greater and more perfect tent, not made with hands, that is; not of this creation; Neither by the blood of he-goats and calves, and by his own blood he went in once for all to the holies, having found eternal deliverance. For if the blood of bulls and he-goats, and the ashes of a heifer besprinkling the polluted, consecrates to the purity of the flesh: How much more shall the blood of Christ, who by the eternal Spirit offered himself blameless to God, purify your consciousness from dead works to serve the living God? And for this he is mediator of a new covenant, that death having been, for redemption of the transgressions for the first covenant, the called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance. For where a will, the necessity for the death of him having willed to be brought forward. For a will is firm by the dead: since it has no power when he having willed lives. Wherefore neither was the first consecrated without blood. For every command spoken according to law by Moses, to all the people, having taken the blood of calves and he-goats, with water, and scarlet wool, and hyssop, and also the book, and he sprinkled all the people, Saying, This the blood of the covenant which God enjoined to you. And also the tent, and all the vessels of the service, he poured all over likewise with blood. And almost all things are purified according to the law with blood; and without blood-letting there is no remission. Therefore truly a necessity for the patterns of things in the heavens to be purified with these; and the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these. For Christ came not into the holy places made with hands, the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to be shown clearly to the face of God for us: Neither that he should offer himself many times, as the chief priest comes in to the holy places yearly with blood pertaining to others; (Since he must have suffered many times from the foundation of the world:) but now once at the termination of the times for the annulling of sin by the sacrifice of himself has he been shown clearly. And inasmuch as it is reserved to men once to die, and after this the judgment: So Christ, once offered to have borne the sins of many, of the second time, without sin, shall be seen to them expecting him for salvation.



Being able to moderate the passions to the ignorant, and deceived; since he also is surrounded with weakness.

For such a chief priest became us, holy, innocent, undefiled, separated from sinners, and being higher than the heavens; Who has no necessity according to the day, as the chief priests, before to bring up sacrifices for their own sins, then for those of the people; for this he did once, having brought up himself. For the law establishes men chief priests having weakness; but the word of the sacrifice sanctioned by solemn oath, after the law, the Son, having been perfected forever.




Neither that he should offer himself many times, as the chief priest comes in to the holy places yearly with blood pertaining to others;










And thou, bring thou Aaron thy brother, and his sons with him, from the midst of the sons of Israel, for him to be a priest to me, Aaron, Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar, sons of Aaron.

And he will cause me to see Joshua the great priest standing before the messenger of Jehovah, and the adversary standing upon his right hand for his adversary.


So also Christ honoured not himself, to become chief priest; but he having spoken to him, Thou art my Son, to day have I begotten thee.

And the great priest from his brethren which the anointing oil shall be poured upon his head, and he filled his hand to put on the garments, his head he shall not uncover, and his garments he shall not rend.


For if that first was faultless, then place was not to be sought for the second. For rebuking them, he says, Behold, the days come, says the Lord, and I will complete for the house of Israel and for the house of Judah a new covenant: Not according to the covenant which I made to their fathers in the day of my taking their hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; for they remained not in my covenant, and I heeded them not, says the Lord. read more.
For this the covenant which I will set to the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord; giving my laws into their mind, and upon their hearts will I write them: and I will be to them for God, and they shall be to me for a people: And they should not teach each his neighbor, and each his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from their little even to their great ones. For I will be merciful to their iniquities, and their sins and their injustices will I remember no more. In saying new, he has made the first old. And that made old and becoming weak is near destruction.

And truly therefore the first had precepts of divine service for him, and a worldly holy place. For the first tent was prepared; (in which was the chandelier, and table, and the setting up of the loaves;) which is called holy. And after the second veil, the tent called Holy of Holies; read more.
Having the golden censer, and ark of the covenant surrounded on all sides with gold, in which was the golden urn having the manna, and Aaron's rod having budded, and the tables of the covenant; And above it the cherubs of glory overshadowing the propitiatory; of which it is not now to speak in turn. And these thus prepared, truly to the first tent the priests always came in, to complete the divine services. And into the second the chief priest alone once a year, not without blood, which he brings near for himself, and the errors of the people: This the Holy Spirit designating, the way of the holies had not yet been made manifest, the first tent yet having a standing: Which a parable for the time placed in, according to which both gifts and sacrifices are brought near, not being able for consciousness to perfect him serving; Only in food and drinks, and different immersions, and precepts of the flesh, being placed till the time of amendment.

And for this he is mediator of a new covenant, that death having been, for redemption of the transgressions for the first covenant, the called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.

For the law having a shadow of good things about to be, not the same image of the things, with these sacrifices which they bring in yearly in continuance never can render perfect them coming thereto. For would they not have ceased to be brought in? because they serving have no more consciousness of sins, once purified. But in these, a reminding of sins yearly. read more.
For the blood of bulls and he-goats cannot take away sins. Wherefore coming into the world, he says, Sacrifice and offering then wouldest not, but a body hast thou adjusted to me: And with whole burnt offering for sin wast thou not contented. Then said I, Behold, I am here (in the head of the book it was written of me,) O God, to do thy will. Farther back, saying, That sacrifice and bringing in and whole burnt offerings and for sin thou wouldest not, neither wert contented with; which are brought in according to law; Then he said, Behold, I am here to do, O God, thy will. He takes away the first, that he might set up the second. In which will we are consecrated by the bringing in of the body of Jesus Christ once. And truly every priest has stood daily, serving and bringing in many times the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins: But this, having brought in one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down on the right hand of God;

And where remission of these, no more bringing in for sin. Having therefore, brethren, freedom of speech for the entering in of the holies by the blood of Jesus, A way publicly declared and living, which he consecrated to us, through the veil, that is, his flesh;


And Aaron to expiate upon its horns once in a year, from the blood of the sin of the expiation: once in a year he shall expiate upon it for your generations: it is holy of holies to Jehovah.


And for this he ought, as for the people, so also for himself, to bring in for sins.

And almost all things are purified according to the law with blood; and without blood-letting there is no remission. Therefore truly a necessity for the patterns of things in the heavens to be purified with these; and the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.


And thou, bring thou Aaron thy brother, and his sons with him, from the midst of the sons of Israel, for him to be a priest to me, Aaron, Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar, sons of Aaron.

And he will cause me to see Joshua the great priest standing before the messenger of Jehovah, and the adversary standing upon his right hand for his adversary.


So also Christ honoured not himself, to become chief priest; but he having spoken to him, Thou art my Son, to day have I begotten thee.

And the great priest from his brethren which the anointing oil shall be poured upon his head, and he filled his hand to put on the garments, his head he shall not uncover, and his garments he shall not rend.

Chanting of David. O Jehovah, who shall sojourn in thy tent? who shall dwell in thy holy mountain?

A workman of holy things, and of the true tent, which the Lord pitched, and not man.

Who serve the pattern and shadow of heavenly things, as Moses was given an intimation of the divine will, being about to complete the tent: for, See, says he, thou make all things according to the type shewed thee in the mount.

And my dwelling was with them, and I was to them for God, and they shall be to me for a people.

For Christ came not into the holy places made with hands, the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to be shown clearly to the face of God for us:




And after the second veil, the tent called Holy of Holies;


And give the vail under the hooks, and bring in there from the inside of the vail, the ark of the testimony: and the vail separating to you between the holy and between the holy of holies. And give the vail upon the ark of the testimony in the holy of holies. And put the table from without the vail, and the chandelier over against the table upon the rib of the tent at the right hand and the table thou shalt give upon the north rib.

And he will take and give the testimony to the ark, and will put the poles upon the ark and will give the cover upon the ark from above. And he will bring the ark to the dwelling and will put up the vail of the covering, and he will cover over the ark of the testimony; as Jehovah commanded Moses.

And after the second veil, the tent called Holy of Holies; Having the golden censer, and ark of the covenant surrounded on all sides with gold, in which was the golden urn having the manna, and Aaron's rod having budded, and the tables of the covenant; And above it the cherubs of glory overshadowing the propitiatory; of which it is not now to speak in turn.

And he brought forth all the bullock to from without the camp to a clean place, to the pouring out of the ashes, and burnt it upon the wood in fire: upon the pouring out of the ashes it shall be burnt

for of whom the blood of the living ones is brought for sin into the holies by the chief priest, the bodies of these are burned without the camp. Wherefore also Jesus, that he might consecrate the people by his own blood, suffered without the camp. Therefore we should come to him without the camp, bearing his reproach.


And I saw, and, behold, in the midst of the throne and of the four living creatures, and in the midst of the elders, a Lamb standing as having been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent into all the earth.

Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, When a saul shall sin in error from all the commands of Jehovah which shall not be done, and doing from after any of them: If the priest being anointed shall sin according to the guilt of the people; and he brought for his sin which he sinned, a bullock, the son of a cow, blameless to Jehovah for the sin.

In the day of the first month, in the one of the month, thou shalt raise up the dwelling of the tent of the appointment

And he put the chandelier in the tent of appointment, opposite the table, upon the thigh of the dwelling southward.

A workman of holy things, and of the true tent, which the Lord pitched, and not man.

Who serve the pattern and shadow of heavenly things, as Moses was given an intimation of the divine will, being about to complete the tent: for, See, says he, thou make all things according to the type shewed thee in the mount.

And truly therefore the first had precepts of divine service for him, and a worldly holy place. For the first tent was prepared; (in which was the chandelier, and table, and the setting up of the loaves;) which is called holy. And after the second veil, the tent called Holy of Holies; read more.
