But we see Jesus crowned with glory and honour, for the suffering of death, who was made a little lower than the angels, that by the grace of God he might taste death for every man.

Since then the children partake of flesh and blood, he also himself in like manner took part of the same, that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil:

Wherefore it behoved him to be made in all things like his brethren, that he might be a merciful and faithful high-priest, in things pertaining to God, to expiate the sins of the people.

That by two unchangeable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have strong consolation, who have fled to lay hold on the hope set before us:

And for this end he is the Mediator of a new covenant, that by means of death for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first covenant, they who are called might receive the promise of the eternal inheritance.

Nor did he enter, that he might offer himself often (as the high-priest entered into the holy place every year with the blood of others.)

And truly if they had been mindful of that from which they came out, they might have had opportunity to return.

others were tortured, not accepting deliverance, that they might obtain a better resurrection.

did not receive the promise, God having provided some better thing for us, that they might not be perfected without us.

and blackness, and darkness, and tempest, And the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words, which they that heard intreated that the word might not be spoken to them any more.

Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people by his own blood, suffered without the gate.
