Hebrews 9:9-11
International Standard Version
9 This illustration for today indicates that the gifts and sacrifices being offered could not clear the conscience of a worshiper, 10 since they deal only with food, drink, and various washings, which are required for the body until the time when things would be set right.
The Messiah Has Offered a Superior Sacrifice
11 But when the Messiah[a] came as a high priest of the good things that have come,[b] he went[c] through the greater and more perfect tent that was not made by human[d] hands and that is not a part of this creation.
