By faith he established the Passover, and the sprinkling with blood, in order that the Destroying Angel might not touch the firstborn.

For the Law, being only a shadow of the good things to come, and not their very substance, its priests cannot with the same sacrifice which year after year they offer continually, make perfect those who draw near.

And forget not to be kind and liberal; for with that sort of sacrifice God is well pleased.
