For every high priest is appointed to offer both gifts and sacrifices; so it is necessary that this high priest also have something to offer.

Now if He were on earth, He would not be a priest at all, since there are those who offer the gifts according to the Law;

Now when these things have been so prepared, the priests are continually entering the outer tabernacle, performing the divine worship,

but into the second, only the high priest enters once a year, not without taking blood which he offers for himself and for the sins of the people committed in ignorance.

But when Christ appeared as a high priest of the good things having come, He entered through the greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made by hands, that is, not of this creation;

nor was it that He would offer Himself often, as the high priest enters the Holy Place year by year with blood that is not his own.

Every priest stands daily ministering and offering time after time the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins;

and since we have a great priest over the house of God,

For the bodies of those animals whose blood is brought into the Holy Place by the high priest as an offering for sin are burned outside the camp.
