Therefore having a great high priest, having entered into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast the testimony.

For the bodies of those animals, whose blood is shed by the high priest in the sanctuary for sin, are utterly burnt up outside of the camp.

Hebrews 10:1-14

For the law having the shadow of good things to come, not the real image of the things, annually with the same sacrifices which they offer continually, is by no means able to make perfect those coming to it: since in that case would they not have ceased being offered, because the worshipers having once been purified would have had no more conscience of sins? But in the same sacrifices there is a remembrance of sins annually; read more.
for it is impossible that the blood of bulls and goats should take away sins. Therefore, coming into the world, he says; Sacrifice an offering thou willest not, but thou hast perfected for me a body: whole burnt offerings and offerings for sins thou wast not pleased with: then I said, Lo, I come in the volume of the Book it has been written of me to do thy will, O God. Saying above, that Sacrifices and offerings and whole burnt offerings and offerings for sin thou didst not will, neither wast well pleased with; whatsoever are offered according to law; then he has said, Lo, I come to do thy will. He takes away the first, that he may establish the second; by which will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all. And every high priest indeed stands daily ministering, and frequently offering the same sacrifices, which are never able to take away sins: and he, having offered up one sacrifice for sins, forever sat down on the right hand of God; finally waiting until his enemies may be made the foot-stool of his feet. For by one offering he has forever perfected the sanctified.

Hebrews 9:7-15

and into the second comes the high priest alone once a year, not without blood, which he offers for himself, and the errors of the people; the Holy Spirit showing this, the way of the holies has not yet been made manifest, the first tabernacle yet standing: which is a figure unto the present time, in which gifts and sacrifices are offered, not being able to make the worshiper perfect, as to his conscience; read more.
consisting only in meats and drinks, and divers baptisms, ordinances of the flesh, abiding until the time of restitution. But Christ being a high priest of good things to come, through a greater and a more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is, not of this world; neither through the blood of goats and bullocks, but through his own blood, came once into the holies, having found eternal redemption. For if the blood of goats and bulls, and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling those who have been defiled, sanctifies unto the purification of the flesh; how much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered up himself without spot to God, purify our conscience from dead works to serve the living God? And on this account he is mediator of the new covenant, since there being death, unto the redemption of the transgressions unto the first covenant, those having been called may receive the promise of eternal inheritance.

Hebrews 9:18-28

Neither was the first covenant therefore dedicated without blood. For every commandment having been spoken by Moses to all the people according to law, having taken the blood of bullocks and goats, with water, and scarlet wool, and hyssop, he sprinkled both the book itself and all the people, saying, This is the blood of the covenant which God established unto you. read more.
And he likewise also sprinkled the tabernacle, and all the vessels of the ministry, with blood. And according to the law, almost all things are purified by blood; and without the shedding of blood there is no remission. Therefore it is necessary that the pattern of the things in these heavens be purified; and the heavenly things themselves with greater sacrifices than these. For Christ did not come into the sanctuaries made with hands, the pattern of the true; but into heaven itself, now to be made manifest unto the face of God in our behalf: neither in order that he may frequently offer up himself, as the high priest goes into the holies once a year with the blood of another; since it behooved him frequently to suffer from the foundation of the world: but now in the end of the ages he has been made manifest unto the removal of sin through the sacrifice of himself. And inasmuch as it is appointed unto men once to die, and after this is the judgment: so also Christ, having once been offered up to bear away the sins of many, will appear the second time apart from sin unto salvation to those expecting him.

Hebrews 10:1-10

For the law having the shadow of good things to come, not the real image of the things, annually with the same sacrifices which they offer continually, is by no means able to make perfect those coming to it: since in that case would they not have ceased being offered, because the worshipers having once been purified would have had no more conscience of sins?

Then indeed the first tabernacle also, had ordinances of service, and a sanctuary for this world.

And these having been thus adjusted, the priests come continually into the first tabernacle, performing the services: and into the second comes the high priest alone once a year, not without blood, which he offers for himself, and the errors of the people; the Holy Spirit showing this, the way of the holies has not yet been made manifest, the first tabernacle yet standing: which is a figure unto the present time, in which gifts and sacrifices are offered, not being able to make the worshiper perfect, as to his conscience; consisting only in meats and drinks, and divers baptisms, ordinances of the flesh, abiding until the time of restitution.

Types » Of the saviour » Melchizedek

Hebrews 7:1-17

For this Melchizedek, the king of Salem, priest of the Most High God, the one having met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings, and blessed him, to whom Abraham divided the tenth from all first, being interpreted, King of righteousness, and then King of Salem, which is, King of peace; without father, without mother, without genealogy, having neither beginning of days nor end of life, but being made like unto the Son of God, he abides a priest continually. read more.
You see how great this man was, to whom the patriarch Abraham even gave the tenth part of the chief spoils. And those indeed of the sons of Levi receiving the priesthood have a commandment to tithe the people according to the law, that is, their brethren, even though having come out from the loins of Abraham: but he who did not derive his lineage from them has tithed Abraham, and blessed him having the promises. For without contradiction the less is blessed by the better. And here indeed men dying, receive tithes; however there, he is witnessed to that he lives. And, so to speak a word, Levi, the one receiving tithes, has also been tithed through Abraham. For he was still in the loins of his father, when Melchizedek met him. Then indeed if perfection was through the Levitical priesthood, for unto it the people have been tithed, what need is there still that another priest shall rise after the order of Melchizedek, and not be called after the order of Aaron? For the priesthood being changed, of necessity there is a change of the law. For he unto whom these things were spoken belongs to another tribe, from which no one ministers at the altar: for it is evident that our Lord sprang from Judah; in reference to which tribe Moses spoke nothing concerning priests. And it is still more abundantly evident, if after the similitude of Melchizedek another priest rises, who was not made after the law of a carnal commandment, but after the power of an endless life. For it is testified, Thou art a priest forever after the order of Melchizedek.
