3For I passed on to you the most important points of ▼▼Or to you as matters of great importance
what I received: Christ died for our sins in keeping with the Scriptures,Ps 22:15; Isa 53:5-6; Dan 9:26; Zech 13:7; Luke 24:26, 46; Acts 3:18; 26:23; Luke 24:26, 46, 1Cor 11:2, 23; Gal 1:12; 1Pet 1:11; 2:24 Galatians 1:4

3He is the reflection ▼▼Or radiance
of God's glory and the exact likeness of his being, and he holds everything together by his powerful word. After he had provided a cleansing from sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Highest MajestyPs 110:1; John 1:4, 14; 14:9; 2Cor 4:4; Eph 1:20; Col 1:15, 17; Heb 7:27; 8:1; 10:12; 12:2; 1Pet 3:22; Rev 4:11 Hebrews 2:17
17Thus he had to become like his brothers in every way, so that he could be a merciful and faithful high priest in service to God and could atone for the people's sins.Phil 2:7; Heb 4:15; 5:1-2Hebrews 9:28
28so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people. And he will appear a second time, not to deal with sin, ▼▼Lit. a second time without sin
but to bring salvation to those who eagerly wait for him.Matt 26:28; Rom 5:15; 6:10; Titus 2:13; 1Pet 2:24; 3:18; 2Pet 3:12; 1John 3:5 1 Peter 1:19
19but with the precious blood of Christ, like that of a lamb without blemish or defect.Exod 12:5; Isa 53:7; John 1:29, 36; Acts 20:28; 1Cor 5:7; Eph 1:7; Heb 9:12, 14; Rev 5:91 Peter 2:24
24He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, so that we might die to those sins and live for righteousness. By his wounds you have been healed.Isa 53:4-6, 11; Matt 8:17; Rom 6:2, 11, 11; 7:6; Heb 9:281 Peter 3:18
18For Christ also suffered ▼▼Other mss. read died
for sins once for all, an innocent person for the guilty, so that he could bring you ▼▼Other mss. read us
to God. He was put to death in the sphere of the flesh but was made alive in the sphere of the spirit, ▼▼Or Spirit

2It is he who is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not for ours only, but also for the whole world's.John 1:29; 4:42; 11:51-52; Rom 3:25; 2Cor 5:18; 1John 1:71 John 3:5
5You know that he was revealed to take away sins, ▼▼Other mss. read our sins
and there is not any sin in him.Isa 53:5-6, 11; 2Cor 5:21; 1Tim 1:15; Heb 1:3; 4:15; Isa 53:5-6, 11, 1Pet 2:22, 24; 1John 1:2 1 John 4:10
10This is love: not that we have loved ▼▼Other mss. read we loved
God, but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the atoning sacrifice for our sins.John 15:16; Rom 5:8, 10; Titus 3:4; 1John 2:2 Revelation of John 1:5
5and from Jesus Christ, the witness, the faithful one, ▼▼Or Jesus Christ, the faithful witness
the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler over the kings of the earth. To the one who loves us and has freed ▼▼Other mss. read has washed
us from our sins by his bloodJohn 8:14; 13:34; 15:9; 1Cor 15:20; Gal 2:20; Eph 1:20; Col 1:18; 1Tim 6:13; Heb 9:14; 1John 1:7; Rev 3:14; 17:14; 19:16 Revelation of John 5:6
6The Vision of the Lamb Taking the ScrollThen I saw a lamb standing in the middle of the throne, the four living creatures, and the elders. He looked ▼▼The Gk. lacks He looked
like he had been slaughtered. He had seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven spirits of God sent into all the earth.Isa 53:7; Zech 3:9; 4:10; John 1:29, 36; 1Pet 1:19; Rev 4:5
