13from that time waiting till His enemies are made His footstool. 14For by one offering He has perfected forever those who are being sanctified.

• Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 15-17Verses 15-17 Whereof the Holy Ghost is a witness to us - That is, the Holy Spirit is a proof of the truth of the position here laid down - that the one atonement made by the Redeemer lays the foundation for the eternal perfection of all who are sanctified.

Their sins and lawless acts I will remember no more: As the author has shown in 9:11–10:14, this is…Read the comment
