Hebrews 8:3-6
3And sinceG1063 everyG3956 high priestG749 is appointedG2525 toG1519 offerG4374 bothG5037 giftsG1435 andG2532 sacrificesG2378, it was necessaryG316 for this OneG3778 alsoG2532 to haveG2192 somethingG5100 to offerG4374.
4NowG3767G3303 ifG1487 He wereG1510 onG1909 earthG1093, He would not beG3761G302G1510 a priestG2409, since there are alreadyG1510 priests who offerG4374 giftsG1435 according toG2596 the lawG3551. 5The place where they serveG3000 is a copyG5262 andG2532 shadowG4639 of whatG3588 is in heavenG2032. This is whyG2531 MosesG3475 was warnedG5537 when he was aboutG3195 to buildG2005 theG3588 tabernacleG4633: “See to it thatG3708 you makeG4160 everythingG3956 according toG2596 theG3588 patternG5179 shownG1166 youG4771 onG1722 theG3588 mountainG3735.”1
6NowG3570, howeverG1161, Jesus has receivedG5177 a muchG3745 more excellentG1313 ministryG3009, just asG2532 the covenantG1242 He mediatesG1510G3316 is betterG2909 and is foundedG3549 onG1909 betterG2909 promisesG1860.
