¹⁹ (for ^(A)the law made nothing perfect); but on the other hand, ^(B)a better hope is introduced, through which ^(C)we draw near to God.

³⁹ and by him ^(A)everyone who believes is freed^[a] from everything ^(B)from which you could not be freed by the law of Moses.

⁹ (which is symbolic for the present age).^[a] According to this arrangement, gifts and sacrifices are offered ^(A)that cannot perfect the conscience of the worshiper,

³ For ^(A)God has done what the law, ^(B)weakened by the flesh, ^(C)could not do. ^(D)By sending his own Son ^(E)in the likeness of sinful flesh and ^(F)for sin,^[a] he condemned sin in the flesh,

⁴⁰ since God had provided something better for us, ^(A)that apart from us they should not be made perfect.

¹⁸ so that by two unchangeable things, in which ^(A)it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled for refuge might have strong encouragement to hold fast to the hope ^(B)set before us.

² Through him we have also ^(A)obtained access by faith^[a] into this grace ^(B)in which we stand, and ^(C)we^[b] rejoice^[c] in hope of the glory of God.
