For if that first covenant had been faultless, there would have been no place sought for a second. For finding fault with them, he saith, "Behold, the days are coming, saith the Lord; and I will accomplish for the house of Israel and for the house of Judah a new covenant: not according to that covenant which I made with their fathers, in the day when I laid hold upon their hand to lead them up out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not in my covenant, and I took no longer care of them, saith the Lord. read more.
For this is the covenant which I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; giving my laws to their understanding, even on their hearts will I inscribe them: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people. And they shall no more teach every man his neighbour, and every one his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me from the mean man of them unto the great among them. For I will be placable to their unrighteousnesses and their sins, and their iniquities I will never more remember." In calling it a new covenant, he hath made the first antiquated. Now what is antiquated and grown aged, is near evanescence.
THEN also the first tabernacle had indeed regulations for the divine service, and a sanctuary furnished. For the tabernacle was prepared; the first part, in which was both the candlestick, and the table, and the shew-bread, which is called the holy. But behind the second vail was the tabernacle, called the holy of holies: read more.
having the golden censer, and the coffer of the covenant, overlaid with gold within and without, in which were the golden urn containing the manna, and Aaron's rod which had budded, and the stone tables of the covenant; and above, over it the cherubim of glory, overshadowing the propitiatory. Now when these things were thus disposed, the priests entered continually into the first tabernacle indeed, performing the divine services: but into the second once in every year entered the high-priest alone, not without blood, which he offered for his own inadvertencies, and for those of the people: the Holy Ghost thus signifying, that the way into the holies was not yet made manifest, whilst the first tabernacle held its station; which figurative representation [continues] unto the present time, according to which both gifts and sacrifices are offered, which cannot, with respect to conscience, make him perfect who performs the services, as they consist only of meats, and drinks, and different ablutions, and corporal services, until the appointed time of perfect reformation. But Christ becoming the high-priest of future good things, through a better and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is, not of this creation; nor by the blood of goats and of calves, but by his own blood, he entered once for all into the holies, having obtained eternal redemption. For if the blood of bulls, and of goats, and the ashes of an heifer sprinkling the defiled sanctifieth to corporal purification, how much more shall the blood of Christ, who, by the eternal Spirit, offered up himself in sacrifice without blemish to God, cleanse our conscience from dead works, that we may perform divine service to the living God? And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that, death being suffered for the redemption of transgressions committed against the first testament, they who are called might receive the promise of an eternal inheritance.
NOW the law, having a shadow of the good things which were to come, not the very substance of the things, cannot possibly, by the same sacrifices which they offer year by year continually, make those perfect who approach [God]; else they would have discontinued to make the offering, because they who performed the service being once made clean, would have had no more sense of sins on their conscience. But in these [sacrifices] there is a commemoration of sins every year. read more.
For it is impossible that the blood of bulls and goats should take away sin. Wherefore, coming into the world, he saith, "Sacrifice and oblation thou hast not chosen, but thou hast exactly fashioned a body for me: thou hast had no delight in whole burnt-offerings and sacrifices for sin: then I said, Here am I; (in the volume of the book it is written of me) I come to do thy will, O God." Having said before that sacrifice, and oblation, and whole burnt-offerings and sin-offerings thou hast not chosen, nor takest pleasure in, (which are offered according to the law,) he then added, Lo, I come to do thy will, O God. He abolishes the first that he may establish the second. By the which will we are sanctified through the oblation of the body of Jesus Christ, once for all. And every priest standeth indeed daily performing the divine service, and frequently offering the same sacrifices, which cannot possibly take away sins: but this person, having offered one sacrifice for sins, for ever hath seated himself at the right hand of God;
Now where there is remission of these, no more offering for sin [is needed]. Having therefore, brethren, entire liberty of entrance into the holies by the blood of Jesus??20 a way, which he hath consecrated for us, newly opened, and giving life, through the vail, that is, his flesh;
