Hebrews 9:8-15
81The Holy Spirit is signifying this, 2that the way into the holy place has not yet been disclosed while the 3outer tabernacle is still standing, 9which is a symbol for the present time. Accordingly 4both gifts and sacrifices are offered which 5cannot make the worshiper perfect in conscience, 10since they relate only to 6food, 7drink, and various 8washings, 9regulations for the 10body imposed until 11a time of reformation.
11But when Christ appeared as a 12high priest of the 13good things 14having come, He entered through 15the greater and more perfect 16tabernacle, 17not made by hands, that is, 18not of this creation; 12and not through 19the blood of goats and calves, but 20through His own blood, He 21entered the holy place 22once for all time, 23having obtained 24eternal redemption. 13For if 25the blood of goats and bulls, and 26the 27ashes of a heifer sprinkling those who have been defiled, sanctify for the 28cleansing of the flesh, 14how much more will 29the blood of Christ, who through 3031the eternal Spirit 32offered Himself without blemish to God, 33cleanse your conscience from 34dead works to serve 35the living God?
15For this reason 36He is the 37mediator of a 38new covenant, so that, since a death has taken place for the redemption of the violations that were committed under the first covenant, those who have been 39called may 40receive the promise of 41the eternal inheritance.
