'Shedding' in the Bible

and you say, ‘If we had been living in the days of our fathers, we would not have joined them in shedding the blood of the prophets.’

So even the first covenant was not put in force without [the shedding of] blood.

In fact under the Law almost everything is cleansed with blood, and without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness [neither release from sin and its guilt, nor cancellation of the merited punishment].

Therefore Jesus also suffered and died outside the [city] gate so that He might sanctify and set apart for God as holy the people [who believe] through [the shedding of] His own blood.

and the stars of the sky fell to the earth, like a fig tree shedding its late [summer] figs when shaken by a strong wind.
