Romans 7:1-4
New International Version
Released From the Law, Bound to Christ
7 Do you not know, brothers and sisters(A)—for I am speaking to those who know the law—that the law has authority over someone only as long as that person lives? 2 For example, by law a married woman is bound to her husband as long as he is alive, but if her husband dies, she is released from the law that binds her to him.(B) 3 So then, if she has sexual relations with another man while her husband is still alive, she is called an adulteress.(C) But if her husband dies, she is released from that law and is not an adulteress if she marries another man.
4 So, my brothers and sisters, you also died to the law(D) through the body of Christ,(E) that you might belong to another,(F) to him who was raised from the dead, in order that we might bear fruit for God.
Romans 3:25-31
New International Version
25 God presented Christ as a sacrifice of atonement,[a](A) through the shedding of his blood(B)—to be received by faith. He did this to demonstrate his righteousness, because in his forbearance he had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished(C)— 26 he did it to demonstrate his righteousness at the present time, so as to be just and the one who justifies those who have faith in Jesus.
27 Where, then, is boasting?(D) It is excluded. Because of what law? The law that requires works? No, because of the law that requires faith. 28 For we maintain that a person is justified by faith apart from the works of the law.(E) 29 Or is God the God of Jews only? Is he not the God of Gentiles too? Yes, of Gentiles too,(F) 30 since there is only one God, who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through that same faith.(G) 31 Do we, then, nullify the law by this faith? Not at all! Rather, we uphold the law.

Hebrews 10:8-12
New International Version
8 First he said, “Sacrifices and offerings, burnt offerings and sin offerings you did not desire, nor were you pleased with them”(A)—though they were offered in accordance with the law. 9 Then he said, “Here I am, I have come to do your will.”(B) He sets aside the first to establish the second. 10 And by that will, we have been made holy(C) through the sacrifice of the body(D) of Jesus Christ once for all.(E)
11 Day after day every priest stands and performs his religious duties; again and again he offers the same sacrifices,(F) which can never take away sins.(G) 12 But when this priest had offered for all time one sacrifice for sins,(H) he sat down at the right hand of God,(I)

New International Version
10 and in Christ you have been brought to fullness. He is the head(A) over every power and authority.(B)

Hebrews 9:7-14
New International Version
7 But only the high priest entered(A) the inner room,(B) and that only once a year,(C) and never without blood,(D) which he offered for himself(E) and for the sins the people had committed in ignorance.(F) 8 The Holy Spirit was showing(G) by this that the way(H) into the Most Holy Place had not yet been disclosed as long as the first tabernacle was still functioning. 9 This is an illustration(I) for the present time, indicating that the gifts and sacrifices being offered(J) were not able to clear the conscience(K) of the worshiper. 10 They are only a matter of food(L) and drink(M) and various ceremonial washings(N)—external regulations(O) applying until the time of the new order.
The Blood of Christ
11 But when Christ came as high priest(P) of the good things that are now already here,[a](Q) he went through the greater and more perfect tabernacle(R) that is not made with human hands,(S) that is to say, is not a part of this creation. 12 He did not enter by means of the blood of goats and calves;(T) but he entered the Most Holy Place(U) once for all(V) by his own blood,(W) thus obtaining[b] eternal redemption. 13 The blood of goats and bulls(X) and the ashes of a heifer(Y) sprinkled on those who are ceremonially unclean sanctify them so that they are outwardly clean. 14 How much more, then, will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit(Z) offered himself(AA) unblemished to God, cleanse our consciences(AB) from acts that lead to death,[c](AC) so that we may serve the living God!(AD)
