The answer is, that the language is peculiar and precise in these same two verses, requiring not a covenant but a testament, and therefore the sense of testament here is the preferable one, and not covenant. It made a covering for their sins, but it did not put their sins away. It became God to give Him to die; for such was our estate by sin that nothing short of His atoning death could deliver us; but, having delivered us, God would make us to be heavenly. Christ is doing nothing there to take away sin; nor when He comes again will He touch the question of sin, because it is a finished work. All the effort of Christendom is first to deny the one, and then to escape from the other. You have sown a lot of happiness that way."

Then comes a total change: God takes up the matter Himself, acting in view of man's sin; but in Jesus, in the very Messiah for whom the Jews were waiting, he has put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself, and has accomplished this mighty work, as admirably befitting the goodness of God, as it alone descends low enough to reach the vilest man, and yet deliver him with a salvation which only the more humbles man and glorifies God. They were dead. Instead of having one person illustrating one thing, another person another, the Lord Jesus sums up the perfection of all trial in His own pathway, not as Saviour only, but in the point of view of bearing witness in His ways for God here below. At first sight every one may have been surprised, especially those that read the New Testament in the language in which God wrote it, at the double meaning of the word which is here translated "covenant." [Note: Morris, pp. The writer to the Hebrews was not saying anything new when he said that obedience was the only true sacrifice. How could any believers put a slight upon it?

There is a trying day coming on us all, the day of our death, and we should observe all the signs of its approaching, and improve them to greater watchfulness and diligence in duty. Impossible to rise higher than the Highest, whence therefore the apostle descends, to consequences. What they suffered: they endured a great fight of afflictions, many and various afflictions united together against them, and they had a great conflict with them. Accordingly observe the change of expression. The reason appears to be, because he is going to tell us of the Old Testament saints. 279.]. The Lord forbid that anything should enfeeble our sense of the value and necessity of such daily grace, There may be that which calls for confusion of face in us, but there is unceasing ground also for thanksgiving and praise, however much we have to humble ourselves in the sight of God. But it is not possible to repeat the Fifth or the Ninth Symphony of Beethoven; no one else will ever write anything like them. The duty itself--to hold fast the profession of our faith, to embrace all the truths and ways of the gospel, to get fast hold of them, and to keep that hold against all temptation and opposition. The reference is therefore plain and sure. None but the Old Testament saints, as a class, can all be in the separate state: not the church, or New Testament saints, for we shall not all sleep; nor the millennial saints, for none of them will die. Of Christ who was given up to death, who is risen and gone above, in whom we find all the blessing promised, and after a better sort. He said, "No, I have come to prove to you how much I've always loved you. Next the apostle, with increasing boldness, comes to the proof from the Old Testament that the legal institution as a whole was to be set aside. He sees that duty extend in three directions. It is easy to laugh at men's ideals, to pour cold water on their enthusiasm, to discourage them. It is also founded on one of their own prophets. It is not mere rebelliousness against law; it is the wounding of love. This shows that, beyond question, among the Jews of that day, Psalms 110:1-7 was understood to refer to the Christ alone. He faced it all with gallantry and emerged erect and unbroken. For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. It was for all men, not only for the respectable classes, that Christ died. It is not so much the glory of a promising start that the Lord desires as it is the glory of a faithful finish. The discovery broke him and he died. Hence they apply some terms to the work of God in nature similar to what they apply to His work in grace. Long before him the prophets had seen how sacrifice had degenerated and had told the people that what God wanted was not the blood and the flesh of animals but the obedience of a man's life. He says that they do not give a real image. But now those under the gospel who will not accept of Christ, that they may be saved by him, have no other refuge left them. The greatest context of any book of the Bible is the "argument of the book." For example, the argument of Romans is "the righteousness of God." In various forms the root dike(right) occurs 60 times.

He will submit to the discipline of training because of the end in view. For if we sin willfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins ( Hebrews 10:26 ).

He alludes, in the beginning of our chapter, to the historical facts of Genesis. [Note: Thomas, p. Hebrews 10:3,4,11-18 How can such a consciousness as this be the portion of the Christian? 4. In doing so he points out the true nature of faith. There are congregations which are as much clubs as they are churches. The writer to the Hebrews says in effect: "Look at what has been done for you; look at the shed blood and the broken body of Christ; look at what your new relationship to God cost; can you treat it as if it did not matter? Are they both true of you? Were it a question of the mystery of Christ the Head, and of the church His body, this would not be proved from the Old Testament, which does not reveal it at all. (1.) Had they been taunted with having no altar, possessing nothing so holy and so glorious in its associations? In the roll of the book it is written of me. First, in God's counsels it was always before Him to have One more than man though a man to deal with this greatest of all transactions. He uses in the most skilful manner the change of the priest, in order to bring along with it a change of the law, the whole Levitical system passing away "but [there is] the bringing in of a better hope." For another thing, the life and death of Jesus was an act of perfect obedience and, therefore, the only perfect sacrifice. he's pointing out these offerings cannot take away sins. And as we are both nourished by the same lamb, then I become a part of God and God becomes a part of me, and I have this fellowship.So God was tired. Viewed from the perspective of the homiletical and literary structure of Hebrews, this concluding exhortation is symmetrical with the preliminary exhortation found in Hebrews 5:11 to Hebrews 6:20 . Amen.". Over on your left is another door, behind which are several tigers. "That is, Jesus, when He came into the world, God prepared a body for Him.

He had shown the work of Christ and His coming again in glory. Vindictive justice is a glorious, though terrible attribute of God; it belongs to him, and he will use and execute it upon the heads of such sinners as despise his grace; he will avenge himself, and his Son, and Spirit, and covenant, upon apostates. He is one of the deepest theologians in the New Testament but all his theology is governed by the pastoral instinct. Jesus was the perfect sacrifice because he perfectly did God's will. But these things were ineffective to remove the real pollution of sin. He demonstrates its vicarious nature and value from the sacrifices so familiar to all then, and to the Jew particularly, in connection with the covenant that required them Now his rapid mind seizes, under the Spirit's guidance, the other well-known sense of the word, namely, as a testamentary disposition, and shows the necessity of Christ's death to bring it into force. brookstone therapeutic percussion massager with lcd screen; do nigel and jennifer whalley still own albury park The wisest man is a fool in the sight of God; and the strongest man is weak in the moment of temptation.

Those have done despite unto the Spirit of grace, the Spirit that is graciously given to men, and that works grace wherever it is,--the Spirit of grace, that should be regarded and attended to with the greatest care,--this Spirit they have grieved, resisted, quenched, yea, done despite to him, which is the highest act of wickedness, and makes the case of the sinner desperate, refusing to have the gospel salvation applied to him. This is, as is well known, the special characteristic of the millennium. The point to which he directs the reader is the evident and surpassing dignity of the case the unity too of the Priest and the priesthood; and this for an obvious reason. Social snobbery is bad but spiritual and intellectual snobbery is worse. 806. Moffatt speaks of "the levitical drudges" who, day in day out, kept offering these sacrifices. It is a new way, both in opposition to the covenant of works and to the antiquated dispensation of the Old Testament; it is via novissima--the last way that will ever be opened to men. The only effective sacrifice is the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. If God had reserved the epistle to the Hebrews until after He sent forth His armies and burned up their city, destroying their polity root and branch, it might have been retorted that the Christians valued the Jewish ritual as loner as it was available, and only gave it up when earthly temple and sacrifice and priest were gone. But they are completely gone; and therefore at God's right-hand sits down He who is its witness. But what punishment can be sorer than to die without mercy? Then comes a second exhortation as to their guides, or leading men among the brethren. Again, she was brought to trial and now the verdict was to be given. This proves that the city of the heavenly Jerusalem does not mean the church, because here they are certainly distinguished from each other, which therefore completely settles all the argument that is often founded on Abraham's looking for a heavenly city.

In all the covenants of scripture the man that makes it has never to die for any such end. Cease to do. One of the old divines wrote a kind of catechism. Year by year the sacrifices of the Tabernacle and especially of the Day of Atonement go on.

Peter said, "God is not slack concerning His promise, as some men count slackness. The point there is personal glory. Their abject ruin placed them just in the circumstances that suited the God of all grace. How happy is the man whose sins and iniquities, God said, I will remember no more. And why?

Never was there a time when men used terms with a more equivocal design than at the present moment. You're in no position to call the shots. "Let us go forth therefore unto him without the camp." Many a time a word of praise or thanks or appreciation or cheer has kept a man on his feet. We are those that believe to the salvation of our souls.Now the just shall live by faith, and as we go into chapter 11, we're going to get the hallmark of faith, the hall of fame for those who believe. So it is said here, "Lo, I come to do thy will, O God. Remember how, after you had been enlightened, you had to go through a hard struggle of suffering, partly because you yourselves were held up to insult and involved in affliction and partly because you had become partners with people whose life was like that. Then follows the heavenly glory, to which grace naturally leads; then the natural inhabitants of the heavenly land, namely, the angels "and to myriads of angels, the general assembly."

Outside of the city, in a clearing in the forest, a pit had been dug. Having brought its to see the "church of the firstborn which are written in heaven," the apostle next can only speak of "God the Judge of all." Thus the first part of the chapter shows us simply what God holds out to the new man; but the epistle to the Hebrews never looks at the Christian simply in the new man, but rather as a concrete person. It is implied here that this promise will not be received unless we are patient in our trials, and the prospect of this reward should encourage us to endure them. kata sarka greek kata sarka greek. He does not reason from the singular circumstance that there was no incense, any more than sacrifice. Ed. Every believer struggles daily against sin, not always victoriously. His faithfulness should excite and encourage us to be faithful, and we must depend more upon his promises to us than upon our promises to him, and we must plead with him the promise of grace sufficient. They had been mightily supported under their former sufferings; they took their sufferings patiently, and not only so, but joyfully received it from God as a favour and honour conferred upon them that they should be thought worthy to suffer reproach for the name of Christ. 25 And let us not neglect our meeting together, as some people do, but encourage .read more. This is the great transgression: the apostle seems to refer to the law concerning presumptuous sinners, Numbers 15:30; Numbers 15:31.

He may have friends who have no use for that kind of thing and may fear their criticism and contempt. Was this Paul's doctrine? So that, let the Jews say what they might, there was only found what answered to their own scriptures, and what proved the incontestable superiority of the great Priest whom Melchisedec shadowed out, and of whom it was now for the Christian justly to boast. 7. It is so deeply a part of their tradition that they guard it fiercely. From the description we have in the scripture of the nature of God's vindictive justice, Hebrews 10:30; Hebrews 10:30. He has so absolutely swept it away for those who believe on Him, that when He comes again, them will be no question of judgment, as far as they are concerned, but only of salvation, in the sense of their being cleared from the last relic or result of sin, even for the body. For he of whom these things are spoken pertaineth to another tribe, of which no man gave attendance at the altar. They wouldn't have to offer animals once a year in the Holy of Holies.
