Hebrews 9
7 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.
In 9:7 it is ambiguous as to whether the offering was on the alter or is later
It could have been in explicit form – as in
-- 7 but into the second, only the high priest enters once a year,
taking blood, which
he THEN offers for himself and for the sins of the people committed in ignorance.
Or -- 7 but into the second, only the high priest enters once a year,
taking blood, which he had just offered for himself and for the sins of the people committed in ignorance.
But in my examples it is explicit.
- Heb 7:26-27 - High priest - daily - offers up sacrifices - on the altar
- Heb 9:28 "bear the sins of many" - on the cross
- Heb 10:10 - offering of the body of Christ - on the cross
- Heb 9:25-26, "offer often" = "suffer often" - on the cross
- Lev 1:9 - offer up in smoke
- Ex 29:13 - offer up in smoke
- Ex 29:25 - offer up in smoke
“offered” on the altar.
Heb 9
25
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.
26
Otherwise, He would have needed to suffer often since the foundation of the world; but now once at the consummation of the ages He has been manifested to put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself.
27 And inasmuch as it is appointed for men to die once and after this comes judgment,
28
so Christ also, having been offered once to
bear the sins of many, will appear a second time for salvation without reference to sin, to those who eagerly await Him.
Heb 7:27 (Christ) does not need DAILY LIKE the High Priest to OFFER UP sacrifices)
26 For it was fitting for us to have such a
high priest, holy, innocent, undefiled, separated from sinners, and exalted above the heavens;
27 who has no
daily need, like those
high priests, to
offer up sacrifices,
first for His own sins and then for the sins of the people, because
He did this once for all time when He offered up Himself.
Heb 10
10 By this will we have been
sanctified through the
offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
11 Every priest stands daily ministering and offering time after time the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins;
12 but He, having offered
one sacrifice for sins for all time, SAT DOWN AT THE RIGHT HAND OF GOD,
Lev 1:9 Its entrails, however, and its legs he shall wash with water. And the
priest shall offer all of it up in smoke on the altar as a
burnt offering, an offering by fire as a soothing aroma to the Lord.
Ex 29:13 And you shall take all the fat that covers the entrails, and the lobe of the liver, and the two kidneys and the fat that is on them,
and offer them up in smoke on the altar.
Ex 29:25 Then you shall take them from their hands, and
offer them up in smoke on the altar on the
burnt offering for a soothing aroma before the Lord; it is an offering by fire to the Lord.
