## 📜 Scripture Text (NET)
### Concluding Exposition: Old and New Sacrifices Contrasted
[[#Verse 01.]] For the law possesses a shadow of the good things to come but not the reality itself, and is therefore completely unable, by the same sacrifices offered continually, year after year, to perfect those who come to worship.
[[#Verse 02.]] For otherwise would they not have ceased to be offered, since the worshipers would have been purified once for all and so have no further consciousness of sin?
[[#Verse 03.]] But in those sacrifices there is a reminder of sins year after year.
[[#Verse 04.]] For it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins.
[[#Verse 05.]] So when he came into the world, he said,
“**_Sacrifice and offering you did not desire, but a body you prepared for me_**.
[[#Verse 06.]] “**_Whole burnt offerings and sin-offerings you took no delight in_**.
[[#Verse 07.]]“**_Then I said_**, ‘**_Here I am:_** **_I have come—it is written of me in the scroll of the book—to do your will, O God_**.’”
[[#Verse 08.]] When he says above, “**_Sacrifices and offerings_** and **_whole burnt offerings and sin-offerings you did not desire nor did you take delight_** in them” (which are offered according to the law),
[[#Verse 09.]] then he says, “**_Here I am: I have come to do your will_**.”He does away with the first to establish the second.
[[#Verse 10.]] By his will we have been made holy through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
[[#Verse 11.]] And every priest stands day after day serving and offering the same sacrifices again and again—sacrifices that can never take away sins.
[[#Verse 12.]] But when this priest had offered one sacrifice for sins for all time, _he sat down at the right hand_ of God,
[[#Verse 13.]] where he is now waiting _until_ _his enemies are made a footstool for his feet_.
[[#Verse 14.]] For by one offering he has perfected for all time those who are made holy.
[[#Verse 15.]] And the Holy Spirit also witnesses to us, for after saying,
[[#Verse 16.]] “_**This is the covenant that I will establish with them after those days, says the Lord**. **I will put**_ **_my_** **_laws on their hearts and I will inscribe them on their minds_**,”
[[#Verse 17.]] then he says, “**_Their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no longer_**.”
[[#Verse 18.]] Now where there is forgiveness of these, there is no longer any offering for sin.
### Drawing Near to God in Enduring Faith
[[#Verse 19.]] Therefore, brothers and sisters, since we have confidence to enter the sanctuary by the blood of Jesus,
[[#Verse 20.]] by the fresh and living way that he inaugurated for us through the curtain, that is, through his flesh,
[[#Verse 21.]] and since we have a great priest over the house of God,
[[#Verse 22.]] let us draw near with a sincere heart in the assurance that faith brings, because we have had our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our bodies washed in pure water.
[[#Verse 23.]] [^1] And let us hold unwaveringly to the hope that we confess, for the one who made the promise is trustworthy.
[[#Verse 24.]] And let us take thought of how to spur one another on to love and good works,
[[#Verse 25.]] not abandoning our own meetings, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging each other, and even more so because you see the day drawing near.
[[#Verse 26.]] For if we deliberately keep on sinning after receiving the knowledge of the truth, no further sacrifice for sins is left for us,
[[#Verse 27.]] but only a certain fearful expectation of judgment and _a fury__of fire that will consume God’s enemies_.
[[#Verse 28.]] Someone who rejected the law of Moses was put to death without mercy _on the testimony of two or three witnesses_.
[[#Verse 29.]] How much greater punishment do you think that person deserves who has contempt for the Son of God, and profanes the blood of the covenant that made him holy, and insults the Spirit of grace?
[[#Verse 30.]] For we know the one who said, “**_Vengeance is mine, I will repay_**,” and again, “**_The Lord will judge his people_**.”
[[#Verse 31.]] It is a terrifying thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
[[#Verse 32.]] But remember the former days when you endured a harsh conflict of suffering after you were enlightened.
[[#Verse 33.]] At times you were publicly exposed to abuse and afflictions, and at other times you came to share with others who were treated in that way.
[[#Verse 34.]] For in fact you shared the sufferings of those in prison,and you accepted the confiscation of your belongings with joy, because you knew that you certainly had a better and lasting possession.
[[#Verse 35.]] So do not throw away your confidence, because it has great reward.
[[#Verse 36.]] For you need endurance in order to do God’s will and so receive what is promised.
[[#Verse 37.]] For **_just a little longer_** and **_he who is coming will arrive and not delay_**.
[[#Verse 38.]] But my righteous one will live by faith, and if he shrinks back, I take no pleasure in him.
[[#Verse 39.]] But we are not among those who shrink back and thus perish, but are among those who have faith and preserve their souls.
