Christ’s Sacrifice Once for All
1For since the law has but aa shadow bof the good things to come instead of the true form of these realities, cit can never, by the same sacrifices that are continually offered every year, make perfect those who draw near. 2Otherwise, would they not have ceased to be offered, since the worshipers, having once been cleansed, would no longer have any consciousness of sins? 3But din these sacrifices ethere is a reminder of sins every year. 4For fit is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins. 5Consequently, gwhen Christ ▼▼Greek he
came into the world, he said, i“Sacrifices and offerings you have not desired,but a body have you prepared for me;
6in burnt offerings and sin offerings
you have taken no pleasure.
7Then I said, ‘Behold, I have come to do your will, O God,
as it is written of me in the scroll of the book.’”
8When he said above, “You have neither desired nor taken pleasure in jsacrifices and offerings and burnt offerings and sin offerings” (these are offered according to the law), 9then he added, k“Behold, I have come to do your will.” He does away with the first in order to establish the second. 10And by that will lwe have been sanctified through the offering of mthe body of Jesus Christ nonce for all.
