1 The weakness of the law sacrifices: 10 the sacrifice of Christ's body once offered, 14 for ever hath tuken away sins: 9 an exhortation to hold fast the faith, with patience and thanksgiving.

a

FOR the law having a shadow of good things to come, and not the very image of the things, can never with those sacrifices which they offered year by year continually make the comers thereunto "perfect.

2 For then would they not have ceased to be offered? because that the worshippers once purged should have had no more conscience of sins.

12 But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins, for ever "sat down on the right hand of God;

13 From henceforth expecting till his enemies be made his footstool.

14 For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified.

15 Whereof the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us for after that he had said before,

16 This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them;

17 And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.
