¹¹Every day the priests stand and do their religious service, often offering the same sacrifices. Those sacrifices can never take away sins. ¹²But after Christ offered one sacrifice for sins, forever, he sat down at the right side of God. ¹³And now Christ waits there for his enemies to be put under his power. ¹⁴With one sacrifice he made perfect forever those who are being made holy.

¹⁵The Holy Spirit also tells us about this. First he says:

¹⁶“This is the agreement ⁿ I will make

with them at that time, says the Lord.

I will put my teachings in their hearts

and write them on their minds.”

¹⁷Then he says:

“Their sins and the evil things they do—

I will not remember anymore.”

¹⁸Now when these have been forgiven, there is no more need for a sacrifice for sins.

¹⁹So, brothers and sisters, we are completely free to enter the Most Holy Place without fear because of the blood of Jesus’ death. ²⁰We can enter through a new and living way that Jesus opened for us. It leads through the curtain—Christ’s body.

Read in Logos

Hebrews 10:10: And by that will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

nagreement God gives a contract or agreement to his people. For the Jews, this agreement was the Law of Moses. But now God has given a better agreement to his people through Christ.
