The Old and the New

(cf. Exo 25:10–40 )
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:1 - Now even the first covenant had ordinances of divine service, and its sanctuary, a sanctuary of this world.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:2 - For there was a tabernacle prepared, the first, wherein were the candlestick, and the table, and the showbread; which is called the Holy place.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:3 - And after the second veil, the tabernacle which is called the Holy of holies;
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:4 - having a golden altar of incense, and the ark of the covenant overlaid round about with gold, wherein was a golden pot holding the manna, and Aaron’s rod that budded, and the tables of the covenant;
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:5 - and above it cherubim of glory overshadowing the mercy-seat; of which things we cannot now speak severally.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:6 - Now these things having been thus prepared, the priests go in continually into the first tabernacle, accomplishing the services;
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:7 - but into the second the high priest alone, once in the year, not without blood, which he offereth for himself, and for the errors of the people:
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:8 - the Holy Spirit this signifying, that the way into the holy place hath not yet been made manifest, while the first tabernacle is yet standing;
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:9 - which is a figure for the time present; according to which are offered both gifts and sacrifices that cannot, as touching the conscience, make the worshipper perfect,
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:10 - being only (with meats and drinks and divers washings) carnal ordinances, imposed until a time of reformation.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:11 - But Christ having come a high priest of the good things to come, through the greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this creation,
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:12 - nor yet through the blood of goats and calves, but through his own blood, entered in once for all into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:13 - For if the blood of goats and bulls, and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling them that have been defiled, sanctify unto the cleanness of the flesh:
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:14 - how much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without blemish unto God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:15 - And for this cause he is the mediator of a new covenant, that a death having taken place for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first covenant, they that have been called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:16 - For where a testament is, there must of necessity be the death of him that made it.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:17 - For a testament is of force where there hath been death: for it doth never avail while he that made it liveth.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:18 - Wherefore even the first covenant hath not been dedicated without blood.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:19 - For when every commandment had been spoken by Moses unto all the people according to the law, he took the blood of the calves and the goats, with water and scarlet wool and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book itself and all the people,
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:20 - saying, This is the blood of the covenant which God commanded to you-ward.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:21 - Moreover the tabernacle and all the vessels of the ministry he sprinkled in like manner with the blood.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:22 - And according to the law, I may almost say, all things are cleansed with blood, and apart from shedding of blood there is no remission.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:23 - It was necessary therefore that the copies of the things in the heavens should be cleansed with these; but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:24 - For Christ entered not into a holy place made with hands, like in pattern to the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear before the face of God for us:
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:25 - nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest entereth into the holy place year by year with blood not his own;
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:26 - else must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once at the end of the ages hath he been manifested to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:27 - And inasmuch as it is appointed unto men once to die, and after this cometh judgment;
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:28 - so Christ also, having been once offered to bear the sins of many, shall appear a second time, apart from sin, to them that wait for him, unto salvation.
