having in the past spoken to the fathers
 through the prophets          at many  
times and in various ways1  #jja3jjb has
 at the end of these days spoken to us  
by his ,son1          whom he appointed 
heir of all things1 through whom also   
he made the worlds4  #jja3jjc ,his ,son 
is the radiance of his glory1 the very  
image of          his substance1 and    
upholding all things by the word of his 
power1          when he had by himself  
made purification for our sins1         
sat down on the right hand of the       
,majesty on high2  #jja3jjd having      
become so much better than the angels1  
as he has          inherited a more     
excellent name than they have4  #jja3jje
 ,for to which of the angels did he say 
at any time1 ,you are my ,son4          
,today have ,i become your father8,psalm
 #b3g and again1 ,i will          be to 
him a ,father1 and he will be to me a   

,son8#b ,samuel #g3ad2          #a      
,chronicles #ag3ac  #jja3jjf ,again1    
when he brings in the firstborn into the
 world he says1          ,let all the   
angels of ,god worship him4  #jja3jjg   
,of the angels he says1 ,who makes his  
angels winds1 and his          servants 
a flame of fire4,psalm #ajd3d  #jja3jjh 
,but of the ,son he says1 ,your throne1 
,o ,god1 is forever and ever4           
,the scepter of uprightness is the      
scepter of your ,kingdom4  #jja3jji ,you
 have loved righteousness1 and hated    
iniquity2 therefore ,god1          your 
,god1 has anointed you with the oil of  
gladness above          your            
fellows4,psalm #de3f-g  #jja3jaj ,and1  
,you1 ,lord1 in the beginning1 laid the 
foundation of the earth4          ,the  
heavens are the works of your hands4    
#jja3jaa ,they will perish1 but you     
continue4  ,they all will grow old      
like a garment does4  #jja3jab ,as a    
mantle1 you will roll them up1 and they 
will be changed2          but you are   

the same4  ,your years will not         
fail4,psalm #ajb3be-bg  #jja3jac ,but   
which of the angels has he told at any  
time1 ,sit at          my right hand1   
until ,i make your enemies the footstool
          of your feet8,psalm #aaj3a    
#jja3jad ,aren't they all serving       
spirits1 sent out to do service         
for the sake of those who will inherit  
salvation8  #jjb3jja ,therefore we ought
 to pay greater attention to the things 
that were heard1 lest perhaps we drift  
away4  #jjb3jjb ,for if the word spoken 
through angels proved steadfast1 and    
every          transgression and        
disobedience received a just recompense2
  #jjb3jjc how will we escape if we     
neglect so great a salvation--          
which at the first having been spoken   
through the ,lord1          was         
confirmed to us by those who heard2     
#jjb3jjd ,god also testifying with them1
 both by signs and wonders1          by 
various works of power1 and by gifts of 
the ,holy ,spirit1          according to

 his own will8  #jjb3jje ,for he didn't 
subject the world to come1 of which we  
speak1          to angels4  #jjb3jjf    
,but one has somewhere testified1       
saying1 ,what is man1 that you          
think of him8  ,or the son of man1 that 
you care for him8  #jjb3jjg ,you made   
him a little lower than the angels4     
,you crowned him          with glory and
 honor4,,tr adds and set him over the   
works          of your hands  #jjb3jjh  
,you have put all things in subjection  
under his feet4,psalm          #h3d-f   
,for in that he subjected all things to 
him1 he left          nothing that is   
not subject to him4  ,but now we don't  
see          all things subjected to    
him1 yet4  #jjb3jji ,but we see him who 
has been made a little lower than       
the angels1 ,jesus1 because of the      
suffering of death crowned          with
 glory and honor1 that by the grace of  
,god he should taste          of death  
for everyone4  #jjb3jaj ,for it became  
him1 for whom are all things1 and       

through whom          are all things1 in
 bringing many children to glory1 to    
make          the author of their       
salvation perfect through sufferings4   
#jjb3jaa ,for both he who sanctifies and
 those who are sanctified          are  
all from one1 for which cause he is not 
ashamed to call          them           
brothers,the word for brothers here and 
where          context allows may also  
be correctly translated brothers        
and sisters or siblings41  #jjb3jab     
saying1 ,i will declare your name to my 
brothers4  ,in the midst          of the
 congregation ,i will sing your         
praise4,psalm #bb3bb  #jjb3jac ,again1  
,i will put my trust in him4,isaiah     
#h3ag ,again1 ,behold1          here ,i 
am with the children whom ,god has given
 me4,isaiah #h3ah  #jjb3jad ,since then 
the children have shared in flesh and   
blood1          he also himself in like 
manner partook of the same1 that through
          death he might bring to       
nothing him who had the power of death1 

that is1 the devil1  #jjb3jae and might 
deliver all of them who through fear of 
death were          all their lifetime  
subject to bondage4  #jjb3jaf ,for most 
certainly1 he doesn't give help to      
angels1 but he gives          help to   
the seed of ,abraham4  #jjb3jag         
,therefore he was obligated in all      
things to be made like          his     
brothers1 that he might become a        
merciful and faithful          high     
priest in things pertaining to ,god1 to 
make atonement          for the sins of 
the people4  #jjb3jah ,for in that he   
himself has suffered being tempted1 he  
is able          to help those who are  
tempted4  #jjc3jja ,therefore1 holy     
brothers1 partakers of a heavenly       
calling1          consider the ,apostle 
and ,high ,priest of our confession1    
,jesus2  #jjc3jjb who was faithful to   
him who appointed him1 as also was      
,moses          in all his house4       
#jjc3jjc ,for he has been counted worthy
 of more glory than ,moses1             

inasmuch as he who built the house has  
more honor than the house4  #jjc3jjd    
,for every house is built by someone2   
but he who built all          things is 
,god4  #jjc3jje ,moses indeed was       
faithful in all his house as a servant1 
for a testimony of those things which   
were afterward to be spoken1  #jjc3jjf  
but ,christ is faithful as a ,son over  
his house2 whose house we are1          
if we hold fast our confidence and the  
glorying of our hope          firm to   
the end4  #jjc3jjg ,therefore1 even as  
the ,holy ,spirit says1 ,today if you   
will          hear his voice1  #jjc3jjh 
don't harden your hearts1 as in the     
provocation1 like as in          the day
 of the trial in the wilderness1        
#jjc3jji where your fathers tested me by
 proving me1 and saw my works           
for forty years4  #jjc3jaj ,therefore ,i
 was displeased with that generation1   
and said1          ',they always err in 
their heart1 but they didn't know my    
ways2'  #jjc3jaa as ,i swore in my      

wrath1 ',they will not enter into       
my rest4',psalm #ie3g-aa  #jjc3jab      
,beware1 brothers1 lest perhaps there be
 in any one of you          an evil     
heart of unbelief1 in falling away from 
the living ,god2  #jjc3jac but exhort   
one another day by day1 so long as it is
 called today2          lest any one of 
you be hardened by the deceitfulness of 
sin4  #jjc3jad ,for we have become      
partakers of ,christ1 if we hold fast   
the beginning of our confidence firm to 
the end3  #jjc3jae while it is said1    
,today if you will hear his voice1      
don't harden your hearts1 as in the     
rebellion4,psalm #ie3g-h  #jjc3jaf ,for 
who1 when they heard1 rebelled8  ,no1   
didn't all those who          came out  
of ,egypt by ,moses8  #jjc3jag ,with    
whom was he displeased forty years8     
,wasn't it with those          who      
sinned1 whose bodies fell in the        
wilderness8  #jjc3jah ,to whom did he   
swear that they wouldn't enter into his 
rest1          but to those who were    

disobedient8  #jjc3jai ,we see that they
 were not able to enter in because of   
unbelief4  #jjd3jja ,let us fear        
therefore1 lest perhaps anyone of you   
should seem          to have come short 
of a promise of entering into his rest4 
#jjd3jjb ,for indeed we have had good   
news preached to us1 even as they       
also did1 but the word they heard didn't
 profit them1          because it wasn't
 mixed with faith by those who heard4   
#jjd3jjc ,for we who have believed do   
enter into that rest1 even as           
he has said1 ,as ,i swore in my wrath1  
they will not enter          into my    
rest2,psalm #ie3aa although the works   
were finished          from the         
foundation of the world4  #jjd3jjd ,for 
he has said this somewhere about the    
seventh day1 ,god rested          on the
 seventh day from all his works2,genesis
 #b3b  #jjd3jje and in this place again1
 ,they will not enter into          my  
rest4,psalm #ie3aa  #jjd3jjf ,seeing    
therefore it remains that some should   

enter therein1          and they to whom
 the good news was before preached      
failed          to enter in because of  
disobedience1  #jjd3jjg he again defines
 a certain day1 today1 saying through   
,david          so long a time afterward
 7just as has been said71 ,today if you 
will hear his voice1 don't harden your  
hearts4,psalm #ie3g-h  #jjd3jjh ,for if 
,joshua had given them rest1 he would   
not have spoken          afterward of   
another day4  #jjd3jji ,there remains   
therefore a ,sabbath rest for the people
 of ,god4  #jjd3jaj ,for he who has     
entered into his rest has himself also  
rested          from his works1 as ,god 
did from his4  #jjd3jaa ,let us         
therefore give diligence to enter into  
that rest1          lest anyone fall    
after the same example of disobedience4 
#jjd3jab ,for the word of ,god is       
living1 and active1 and sharper than any
          two-edged sword1 and piercing 
even to the dividing of soul            
and spirit1 of both joints and marrow1  

and is able to discern          the     
thoughts and intentions of the heart4   
#jjd3jac ,there is no creature that is  
hidden from his sight1 but all          
things are naked and laid open before   
the eyes of him with whom          we   
have to do4  #jjd3jad ,having then a    
great high priest1 who has passed       
through          the heavens1 ,jesus1   
the ,son of ,god1 let us hold tightly   
to our confession4  #jjd3jae ,for we    
don't have a high priest who can't be   
touched with          the feeling of our
 infirmities1 but one who has been in   
all          points tempted like we are1
 yet without sin4  #jjd3jaf ,let us     
therefore draw near with boldness to the
 throne of grace1          that we may  
receive mercy1 and may find grace for   
help          in time of need4  #jje3jja
 ,for every high priest1 being taken    
from among men1 is appointed            
for men in things pertaining to ,god1   
that he may offer both          gifts   
and sacrifices for sins4  #jje3jjb ,the 

high priest can deal gently with those  
who are ignorant and          going     
astray1 because he himself is also      
surrounded with weakness4  #jje3jjc     
,because of this1 he must offer         
sacrifices for sins for the people1     
as well as for himself4  #jje3jjd       
,nobody takes this honor on himself1 but
 he is called by ,god1          just    
like ,aaron was4  #jje3jje ,so also     
,christ didn't glorify himself to be    
made a high priest1          but it was 
he who said to him1 ,you are my ,son4   
,today ,i have become your father4,psalm
 #b3g  #jje3jjf ,as he says also in     
another place1 ,you are a priest        
forever1          after the order of    
,melchizedek4,psalm #aaj3d  #jje3jjg    
,he1 in the days of his flesh1 having   
offered up prayers and                  
petitions with strong crying and tears  
to him who was able          to save him
 from death1 and having been heard for  
his godly fear1  #jje3jjh though he was 
a ,son1 yet learned obedience by the    

things          which he suffered4      
#jje3jji ,having been made perfect1 he  
became to all of those who obey         
him the author of eternal salvation1    
#jje3jaj named by ,god a high priest    
after the order of ,melchizedek4        
#jje3jaa ,about him we have many words  
to say1 and hard to interpret1          
seeing you have become dull of hearing4 
#jje3jab ,for when by reason of the time
 you ought to be teachers1          you 
again need to have someone teach you the
 rudiments          of the first        
principles of the oracles of ,god4      
,you have come to need milk1 and not    
solid food4  #jje3jac ,for everyone who 
lives on milk is not experienced in the 
word          of righteousness1 for he  
is a baby4  #jje3jad ,but solid food is 
for those who are full grown1 who by    
reason          of use have their senses
 exercised to discern good and evil4    
#jjf3jja ,therefore leaving the doctrine
 of the first principles of ,christ1    
let us press on to perfection--not      

laying again a foundation          of   
repentance from dead works1 of faith    
toward ,god1  #jjf3jjb of the teaching  
of baptisms1 of laying on of hands1     
of resurrection of the dead1 and of     
eternal judgment4  #jjf3jjc ,this will  
we do1 if ,god permits4  #jjf3jjd ,for  
concerning those who were once          
enlightened and tasted of          the  
heavenly gift1 and were made partakers  
of the ,holy ,spirit1  #jjf3jje and     
tasted the good word of ,god1 and the   
powers of the age to come1  #jjf3jjf and
 then fell away1 it is impossible to    
renew them again          to repentance2
 seeing they crucify the ,son of ,god   
for          themselves again1 and put  
him to open shame4  #jjf3jjg ,for the   
land which has drunk the rain that comes
 often on it1          and brings forth 
a crop suitable for them for whose sake 
it          is also tilled1 receives    
blessing from ,god2  #jjf3jjh but if it 
bears thorns and thistles1 it is        
rejected and near          being cursed1

 whose end is to be burned4  #jjf3jji   
,but1 beloved1 we are persuaded of      
better things for you1          and     
things that accompany salvation1 even   
though we          speak like this4     
#jjf3jaj ,for ,god is not unrighteous1  
so as to forget your work          and  
the labor of love which you showed      
toward his name1          in that you   
served the saints1 and still do serve   
them4  #jjf3jaa ,we desire that each one
 of you may show the same diligence     
to the fullness of hope even to the end1
  #jjf3jab that you won't be sluggish1  
but imitators of those who through      
faith and patience inherited the        
promises4  #jjf3jac ,for when ,god made 
a promise to ,abraham1 since he could   
swear          by none greater1 he swore
 by himself1  #jjf3jad saying1 ,surely  
blessing ,i will bless you1 and         
multiplying ,i          will multiply   
you4,genesis #bb3ag  #jjf3jae ,thus1    
having patiently endured1 he obtained   
the promise4  #jjf3jaf ,for men indeed  

swear by a greater one1 and in every    
dispute          of theirs the oath is  
final for confirmation4  #jjf3jag ,in   
this way ,god1 being determined to show 
more abundantly          to the heirs of
 the promise the immutability of his    
counsel1          interposed with an    
oath2  #jjf3jah that by two immutable   
things1 in which it is impossible for   
,god          to lie1 we may have a     
strong encouragement1 who have fled     
for refuge to take hold of the hope set 
before us4  #jjf3jai ,this hope we have 
as an anchor of the soul1 a hope both   
sure          and steadfast and entering
 into that which is within the veil2    
#jjf3jbj where as a forerunner ,jesus   
entered for us1 having become          a
 high priest forever after the order of 
,melchizedek4  #jjg3jja ,for this       
,melchizedek1 king of ,salem1 priest of 
,god ,most ,high1          who met      
,abraham returning from the slaughter of
 the kings          and blessed him1    
#jjg3jjb to whom also ,abraham divided a

 tenth part of all 7being first1        
by interpretation1 king of              
righteousness1 and then also king       
of ,salem1 which is king of peace2      
#jjg3jjc without father1 without mother1
 without genealogy1 having neither      
beginning of days nor end of life1 but  
made like the ,son of ,god71            
remains a priest continually4  #jjg3jjd 
,now consider how great this man was1 to
 whom even ,abraham1          the       
patriarch1 gave a tenth out of the best 
spoils4  #jjg3jje ,they indeed of the   
sons of ,levi who receive the priest's  
office          have a commandment to   
take tithes of the people according     
to the law1 that is1 of their brothers1 
though these have come          out of  
the body of ,abraham1  #jjg3jjf but he  
whose genealogy is not counted from them
 has accepted          tithes from      
,abraham1 and has blessed him who has   
the promises4  #jjg3jjg ,but without any
 dispute the lesser is blessed by the   
greater4  #jjg3jjh ,here people who die 

receive tithes1 but there one receives  
tithes of whom it is testified that he  
lives4  #jjg3jji ,we can say that       
through ,abraham even ,levi1 who        
receives tithes1          has paid      
tithes1  #jjg3jaj for he was yet in the 
body of his father when ,melchizedek met
 him4  #jjg3jaa ,now if there was       
perfection through the ,levitical       
priesthood          7for under it the   
people have received the law71 what     
further          need was there for     
another priest to arise after the order 
of ,melchizedek1 and not be called after
 the order of ,aaron8  #jjg3jab ,for the
 priesthood being changed1 there is of  
necessity a change          made also in
 the law4  #jjg3jac ,for he of whom     
these things are said belongs to another
 tribe1          from which no one has  
officiated at the altar4  #jjg3jad ,for 
it is evident that our ,lord has sprung 
out of ,judah1          about which     
tribe ,moses spoke nothing concerning   
priesthood4  #jjg3jae ,this is yet more 

abundantly evident1 if after the        
likeness          of ,melchizedek there 
arises another priest1  #jjg3jaf who has
 been made1 not after the law of a      
fleshly commandment1          but after 
the power of an endless life3  #jjg3jag 
for it is testified1 ,you are a priest  
forever1 according to          the order
 of ,melchizedek4,psalm #aaj3d  #jjg3jah
 ,for there is an annulling of a        
foregoing commandment because           
of its weakness and uselessness         
#jjg3jai 7for the law made nothing      
perfect71 and a bringing in of a        
better hope1 through which we draw near 
to ,god4  #jjg3jbj ,inasmuch as he was  
not made priest without the taking of an
 oath  #jjg3jba 7for they indeed have   
been made priests without an oath71     
but he with an oath by him that says of 
him1 ,the ,lord swore          and will 
not change his mind1 ',you are a priest 
forever1          according to the order
 of ,melchizedek4',psalm #aaj3d         
#jjg3jbb ,by so much1 ,jesus has become 

the collateral of a better covenant4    
#jjg3jbc ,many1 indeed1 have been made  
priests1 because they are hindered      
from continuing by death4  #jjg3jbd ,but
 he1 because he lives forever1 has his  
priesthood unchangeable4  #jjg3jbe      
,therefore he is also able to save to   
the uttermost those who draw            
near to ,god through him1 seeing that he
 lives forever to make                  
intercession for them4  #jjg3jbf ,for   
such a high priest was fitting for us3  
holy1 guiltless1          undefiled1    
separated from sinners1 and made higher 
than the heavens2  #jjg3jbg who doesn't 
need1 like those high priests1 to offer 
up sacrifices          daily1 first for 
his own sins1 and then for the sins of  
the people4          ,for he did this   
once for all1 when he offered up        
himself4  #jjg3jbh ,for the law appoints
 men as high priests who have weakness1 
but the word of the oath which came     
after the law appoints          a ,son  
forever who has been perfected4         

#jjh3jja ,now in the things which we are
 saying1 the main point is this4        
,we have such a high priest1 who sat    
down on the right hand          of the  
throne of the ,majesty in the heavens1  
#jjh3jjb a servant of the sanctuary1 and
 of the true tabernacle1          which 
the ,lord pitched1 not man4  #jjh3jjc   
,for every high priest is appointed to  
offer both gifts          and           
sacrifices4  ,therefore it is necessary 
that this high          priest also have
 something to offer4  #jjh3jjd ,for if  
he were on earth1 he would not be a     
priest at all1          seeing there are
 priests who offer the gifts according  
to the law2  #jjh3jje who serve a copy  
and shadow of the heavenly things1 even 
as ,moses          was warned by ,god   
when he was about to make the           
tabernacle1          for he said1 ,see1 
you shall make everything according to  
the          pattern that was shown to  
you on the mountain4,exodus #be3dj      
#jjh3jjf ,but now he has obtained a more

 excellent ministry1          by so much
 as he is also the mediator of a better 
covenant1          which on better      
promises has been given as law4         
#jjh3jjg ,for if that first covenant had
 been faultless1 then no place          
would have been sought for a second4    
#jjh3jjh ,for finding fault with them1  
he said1 ,behold1 the days come1        
says the ,lord1 that ,i will make a new 
covenant with the house          of     
,israel and with the house of ,judah2   
#jjh3jji not according to the covenant  
that ,i made with their fathers1        
in the day that ,i took them by the hand
 to lead them out of          the land  
of ,egypt2 for they didn't continue in  
my covenant1          and ,i disregarded
 them1 says the ,lord4  #jjh3jaj ,for   
this is the covenant that ,i will make  
with the house of ,israel4              
,after those days1 says the ,lord2 ,i   
will put my laws          into their    
mind1 ,i will also write them on their  
heart4          ,i will be their ,god1  

and they will be my people4  #jjh3jaa   
,they will not teach every man his      
fellow citizen1,,tr          reads      
neighbor instead of fellow citizen and  
every man          his brother1 saying1 
',know the ,lord1' for all will know me1
          from the least of them to the 
greatest of them4  #jjh3jab ,for ,i will
 be merciful to their unrighteousness4  
,i will remember          their sins and
 lawless deeds no more4,jeremiah        
#ca3ca-cd  #jjh3jac ,in that he says1 ,a
 new covenant1 he has made the first    
old4          ,but that which is        
becoming old and grows aged is near     
to vanishing away4  #jji3jja ,now indeed
 even the first,,tr adds tabernacle     
covenant had          ordinances of     
divine service1 and an earthly          
sanctuary4  #jji3jjb ,for a tabernacle  
was prepared4  ,in the first part were  
the lampstand1          the table1 and  
the show bread2 which is called the     
,holy ,place4  #jji3jjc ,after the      
second veil was the tabernacle which is 

called          the ,holy of ,holies1   
#jji3jjd having a golden altar of       
incense1 and the ark of the covenant    
overlaid on all sides with gold1 in     
which was a golden pot          holding 
the manna1 ,aaron's rod that budded1 and
 the tablets          of the covenant2  
#jji3jje and above it cherubim of glory 
overshadowing the mercy seat1           
of which things we can't speak now in   
detail4  #jji3jjf ,now these things     
having been thus prepared1 the priests  
go in          continually into the     
first tabernacle1 accomplishing the     
services1  #jji3jjg but into the second 
the high priest alone1 once in the year1
          not without blood1 which he   
offers for himself1 and for          the
 errors of the people4  #jji3jjh ,the   
,holy ,spirit is indicating this1 that  
the way into          the ,holy ,place  
wasn't yet revealed while the first     
tabernacle          was still standing2 
#jji3jji which is a symbol of the       
present age1 where gifts and sacrifices 

are offered that are incapable1         
concerning the conscience1          of  
making the worshipper perfect2  #jji3jaj
 being only 7with meats and drinks and  
various washings7          fleshly      
ordinances1 imposed until a time of     
reformation4  #jji3jaa ,but ,christ     
having come as a high priest of the     
coming good things1          through the
 greater and more perfect tabernacle1   
not made          with hands1 that is to
 say1 not of this creation1  #jji3jab   
nor yet through the blood of goats and  
calves1 but through          his own    
blood1 entered in once for all into the 
,holy ,place1          having obtained  
eternal redemption4  #jji3jac ,for if   
the blood of goats and bulls1 and the   
ashes of a heifer          sprinkling   
those who have been defiled1 sanctify to
 the cleanness          of the flesh3   
#jji3jad how much more will the blood of
 ,christ1 who through the eternal       
,spirit offered himself without blemish 
to ,god1 cleanse your                   

conscience from dead works to serve the 
living ,god8  #jji3jae ,for this reason 
he is the mediator of a new covenant1   
since a          death has occurred for 
the redemption of the transgressions    
that were under the first covenant1 that
 those who have been          called may
 receive the promise of the eternal     
inheritance4  #jji3jaf ,for where a last
 will and testament is1 there must of   
necessity          be the death of him  
who made it4  #jji3jag ,for a will is in
 force where there has been death1 for  
it          is never in force while he  
who made it lives4  #jji3jah ,therefore 
even the first covenant has not been    
dedicated          without blood4       
#jji3jai ,for when every commandment had
 been spoken by ,moses to all           
the people according to the law1 he took
 the blood of the calves          and   
the goats1 with water and scarlet wool  
and hyssop1          and sprinkled both 
the book itself and all the people1     
#jji3jbj saying1 ,this is the blood of  

the covenant which ,god has             
commanded you4,exodus #bd3h  #jji3jba   
,moreover he sprinkled the tabernacle   
and all the vessels          of the     
ministry in like manner with the blood4 
#jji3jbb ,according to the law1 nearly  
everything is cleansed with blood1      
and apart from shedding of blood there  
is no remission4  #jji3jbc ,it was      
necessary therefore that the copies of  
the things          in the heavens      
should be cleansed with these2 but the  
heavenly          things themselves with
 better sacrifices than these4  #jji3jbd
 ,for ,christ hasn't entered into holy  
places made with hands1          which  
are representations of the true1 but    
into heaven itself1          now to     
appear in the presence of ,god for us2  
#jji3jbe nor yet that he should offer   
himself often1 as the high priest       
enters into the holy place year by year 
with blood not his own1  #jji3jbf or    
else he must have suffered often since  
the foundation          of the world4   

,but now once at the end of the ages1 he
 has          been revealed to put away 
sin by the sacrifice of himself4        
#jji3jbg ,inasmuch as it is appointed   
for men to die once1          and after 
this1 judgment1  #jji3jbh so ,christ    
also1 having been offered once to bear  
the sins of many1          will appear a
 second time1 without sin1 to those who 
are          eagerly waiting for him for
 salvation4  #jaj3jja ,for the law1     
having a shadow of the good to come1 not
 the very          image of the things1 
can never with the same sacrifices      
year by year1 which they offer          
continually1 make perfect          those
 who draw near4  #jaj3jjb ,or else      
wouldn't they have ceased to be offered1
          because the worshippers1      
having been once cleansed1              
would have had no more consciousness of 
sins8  #jaj3jjc ,but in those sacrifices
 there is yearly reminder of sins4      
#jaj3jjd ,for it is impossible that the 
blood of bulls and goats should         

take away sins4  #jaj3jje ,therefore    
when he comes into the world1 he says1  
,sacrifice and          offering you    
didn't desire1 but you prepared a body  
for me2  #jaj3jjf ,you had no pleasure  
in whole burnt offerings and sacrifices 
for sin4  #jaj3jjg ,then ,i said1       
',behold1 ,i have come 7in the scroll of
 the book          it is written of me7 
to do your will1 ,o ,god4',psalm #dj3f-h
  #jaj3jjh ,previously saying1          
,sacrifices and offerings and whole     
burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin  
you didn't desire1          neither had 
pleasure in them 7those which are       
offered          according to the law71 
#jaj3jji then he has said1 ,behold1 ,i  
have come to do your will4          ,he 
takes away the first1 that he may       
establish the second1  #jaj3jaj by which
 will we have been sanctified through   
the offering          of the body of    
,jesus ,christ once for all4  #jaj3jaa  
,every priest indeed stands day by day  
serving and often offering          the 

same sacrifices1 which can never take   
away sins1  #jaj3jab but he1 when he had
 offered one sacrifice for sins forever1
          sat down on the right hand of 
,god2  #jaj3jac from that time waiting  
until his enemies are made the footstool
          of his feet4  #jaj3jad ,for by
 one offering he has perfected forever  
those who          are being sanctified4
  #jaj3jae ,the ,holy ,spirit also      
testifies to us1 for after saying1      
#jaj3jaf ,this is the covenant that ,i  
will make with them3          ',after   
those days1' says the ,lord1 ',i will   
put my laws on          their heart1 ,i 
will also write them on their           
mind2',jeremiah          #ca3cc then he 
says1  #jaj3jag ,i will remember their  
sins and their iniquities          no   
more4,jeremiah #ca3cd  #jaj3jah ,now    
where remission of these is1 there is no
 more offering for sin4  #jaj3jai       
,having therefore1 brothers1 boldness to
 enter into the holy          place by  
the blood of ,jesus1  #jaj3jbj by the   

way which he dedicated for us1 a new and
 living way1          through the veil1 
that is to say1 his flesh2  #jaj3jba and
 having a great priest over the house of
 ,god1  #jaj3jbb let's draw near with a 
true heart in fullness of faith1        
having our hearts sprinkled from an evil
 conscience1          and having our    
body washed with pure water1  #jaj3jbc  
let us hold fast the confession of our  
hope without wavering2          for he  
who promised is faithful4  #jaj3jbd ,let
 us consider how to provoke one another 
to love and good works1  #jaj3jbe not   
forsaking our own assembling together1  
as the custom          of some is1 but  
exhorting one another2 and so much the  
more1          as you see the ,day      
approaching4  #jaj3jbf ,for if we sin   
willfully after we have received the    
knowledge          of the truth1 there  
remains no more a sacrifice for sins1   
#jaj3jbg but a certain fearful          
expectation of judgment1 and a          
fierceness          of fire which will  

devour the adversaries4  #jaj3jbh ,a man
 who disregards ,moses' law dies without
 compassion on          the word of two 
or three witnesses4  #jaj3jbi ,how much 
worse punishment1 do you think1 will he 
be judged          worthy of1 who has   
trodden under foot the ,son of ,god1 and
 has          counted the blood of the  
covenant with which he was sanctified   
an unholy thing1 and has insulted the   
,spirit of grace8  #jaj3jcj ,for we know
 him who said1 ,vengeance belongs to me1
          says the ,lord1 ,i will       
repay4,deuteronomy #cb3ce ,again1 ,the  
,lord          will judge his           
people4,deuteronomy #cb3cf2 ,psalm      
#ace3ad  #jaj3jca ,it is a fearful thing
 to fall into the hands of the living   
,god4  #jaj3jcb ,but remember the former
 days1 in which1 after you were         
enlightened1          you endured a     
great struggle with sufferings2         
#jaj3jcc partly1 being exposed to both  
reproaches and oppressions2          and
 partly1 becoming partakers with those  

who were treated so4  #jaj3jcd ,for you 
both had compassion on me in my chains1 
and joyfully          accepted the      
plundering of your possessions1 knowing 
that you          have for yourselves a 
better possession and an enduring one   
in the heavens4  #jaj3jce ,therefore    
don't throw away your boldness1 which   
has a great reward4  #jaj3jcf ,for you  
need endurance so that1 having done the 
will of ,god1          you may receive  
the promise4  #jaj3jcg ,in a very little
 while1 he who comes will come1 and will
 not wait4  #jaj3jch ,but the righteous 
will live by faith4  ,if he shrinks     
back1          my soul has no pleasure  
in him4,habakkuk #b3c-d  #jaj3jci ,but  
we are not of those who shrink back to  
destruction1          but of those who  
have faith to the saving of the soul4   
#jaa3jja ,now faith is assurance of     
things hoped for1 proof of              
things not seen4  #jaa3jjb ,for by this1
 the elders obtained testimony4         
#jaa3jjc ,by faith1 we understand that  

the universe has been framed          by
 the word of ,god1 so that what is seen 
has not been made          out of things
 which are visible4  #jaa3jjd ,by faith1
 ,abel offered to ,god a more excellent 
sacrifice than ,cain1          through  
which he had testimony given to him that
 he was righteous1          ,god        
testifying with respect to his gifts2   
and through it he1          being dead1 
still speaks4  #jaa3jje ,by faith1      
,enoch was taken away1 so that he       
wouldn't see death1          and he was 
not found1 because ,god translated him4 
,for he has had testimony given to him  
that before his translation          he 
had been well pleasing to ,god4         
#jaa3jjf ,without faith it is impossible
 to be well pleasing to him1            
for he who comes to ,god must believe   
that he exists1          and that he is 
a rewarder of those who seek him4       
#jaa3jjg ,by faith1 ,noah1 being warned 
about things not yet seen1              
moved with godly fear1 prepared an ark  

for the saving of          his house1   
through which he condemned the world1   
and became          heir of the         
righteousness which is according to     
faith4  #jaa3jjh ,by faith1 ,abraham1   
when he was called1 obeyed to go out    
to the place which he was to receive for
 an inheritance4          ,he went out1 
not knowing where he went4  #jaa3jji ,by
 faith1 he lived as an alien in the land
 of promise1 as in          a land not  
his own1 dwelling in tents1 with ,isaac 
and ,jacob1          the heirs with him 
of the same promise4  #jaa3jaj ,for he  
looked for the city which has the       
foundations1          whose builder and 
maker is ,god4  #jaa3jaa ,by faith1 even
 ,sarah herself received power to       
conceive1          and she bore a child 
when she was past age1 since she counted
          him faithful who had promised4
  #jaa3jab ,therefore as many as the    
stars of the sky in multitude1          
and as innumerable as the sand which is 
by the sea shore1          were fathered

 by one man1 and him as good as dead4   
#jaa3jac ,these all died in faith1 not  
having received the promises1           
but having seen,,tr adds and being      
convinced of them          and embraced 
them from afar1 and having confessed    
that they          were strangers and   
pilgrims on the earth4  #jaa3jad ,for   
those who say such things make it clear 
that they are          seeking a country
 of their own4  #jaa3jae ,if indeed they
 had been thinking of that country from 
which they          went out1 they would
 have had enough time to return4        
#jaa3jaf ,but now they desire a better  
country1 that is1 a heavenly one4       
,therefore ,god is not ashamed of them1 
to be called their ,god1          for he
 has prepared a city for them4  #jaa3jag
 ,by faith1 ,abraham1 being tested1     
offered up ,isaac4          ,yes1 he who
 had gladly received the promises was   
offering up          his one and only   
son2  #jaa3jah even he to whom it was   
said1 ,in ,isaac will your seed         

be called2,genesis #ba3ab  #jaa3jai     
concluding that ,god is able to raise up
 even from the dead4                    
,figuratively speaking1 he also did     
receive him back from the dead4         
#jaa3jbj ,by faith1 ,isaac blessed      
,jacob and ,esau1 even concerning       
things to come4  #jaa3jba ,by faith1    
,jacob1 when he was dying1 blessed each 
of the sons          of ,joseph1 and    
worshiped1 leaning on the top of his    
staff4  #jaa3jbb ,by faith1 ,joseph1    
when his end was near1 made mention of  
the departure of the children of        
,israel2 and gave instructions          
concerning his bones4  #jaa3jbc ,by     
faith1 ,moses1 when he was born1 was    
hidden for three months          by his 
parents1 because they saw that he was a 
beautiful child1          and they were 
not afraid of the king's commandment4   
#jaa3jbd ,by faith1 ,moses1 when he had 
grown up1 refused to be called          
the son of ,pharaoh's daughter1         
#jaa3jbe choosing rather to share ill   

treatment with ,god's people1           
than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a
 time2  #jaa3jbf accounting the reproach
 of ,christ greater riches than the     
treasures          of ,egypt2 for he    
looked to the reward4  #jaa3jbg ,by     
faith1 he left ,egypt1 not fearing the  
wrath of the king2          for he      
endured1 as seeing him who is invisible4
  #jaa3jbh ,by faith1 he kept the       
,passover1 and the sprinkling of the    
blood1          that the destroyer of   
the firstborn should not touch them4    
#jaa3jbi ,by faith1 they passed through 
the ,red ,sea as on dry land4           
,when the ,egyptians tried to do so1    
they were swallowed up4  #jaa3jcj ,by   
faith1 the walls of ,jericho fell down1 
after they had been          encircled  
for seven days4  #jaa3jca ,by faith1    
,rahab the prostitute1 didn't perish    
with those who          were            
disobedient1 having received the spies  
in peace4  #jaa3jcb ,what more shall ,i 
say8  ,for the time would fail me if ,i 

told          of ,gideon1 ,barak1       
,samson1 ,jephthah1 ,david1 ,samuel1 and
 the prophets2  #jaa3jcc who1 through

testimony given to them through their   
faith1          didn't receive the      
promise1  #jaa3jdj ,god having provided 
some better thing concerning us1        
so that apart from us they should not be
 made perfect4  #jab3jja ,therefore let 
us also1 seeing we are surrounded by so 
great          a cloud of witnesses1 lay
 aside every weight and the sin         
which so easily entangles us1 and let us
 run with patience          the race    
that is set before us1  #jab3jjb looking
 to ,jesus1 the author and perfecter of 
faith1          who for the joy that was
 set before him endured the cross1      
despising its shame1 and has sat down at
 the right hand          of the throne  

of ,god4  #jab3jjc ,for consider him who
 has endured such contradiction         
of sinners against himself1 that you    
don't grow weary1          fainting in  
your souls4  #jab3jjd ,you have not yet 
resisted to blood1 striving against sin2
  #jab3jje and you have forgotten the   
exhortation which reasons with you      
as with children1 ,my son1 don't take   
lightly the chastening          of the  
,lord1 nor faint when you are reproved  
by him2  #jab3jjf ,for whom the ,lord   
loves1 he chastens1 and scourges every  
son          whom he receives4,proverbs 
#c3aa-ab  #jab3jjg ,it is for discipline
 that you endure4  ,god deals with      
you as with children1 for what son is   
there whom his          father doesn't  
discipline8  #jab3jjh ,but if you are   
without discipline1 of which all have   
been          made partakers1 then are  
you illegitimate1 and not children4     
#jab3jji ,furthermore1 we had the       
fathers of our flesh to chasten us1     
and we paid them respect4  ,shall we not

 much rather be in          subjection  
to the ,father of spirits1 and live8    
#jab3jaj ,for they indeed1 for a few    
days1 punished us as seemed good to     
them2          but he for our profit1   
that we may be partakers of his         
holiness4  #jab3jaa ,all chastening     
seems for the present to be not joyous  
but grievous2          yet afterward it 
yields the peaceful fruit of            
righteousness          to those who have
 been exercised thereby4  #jab3jab

down and the          feeble            
knees1,isaiah #ce3c  #jab3jac and make

 not be dislocated1 but rather be       
healed4  #jab3jad ,follow after peace   
with all men1 and the sanctification    
without          which no man will see  
the ,lord1  #jab3jae looking carefully  
lest there be any man who falls short of
 the grace          of ,god2 lest any   
root of bitterness springing up trouble 

you1          and many be defiled by it2
  #jab3jaf lest there be any sexually   
immoral person1 or profane person1      
like ,esau1 who sold his birthright for 
one meal4  #jab3jag ,for you know that  
even when he afterward desired to       
inherit          the blessing1 he was   
rejected1 for he found no place for a   
change of mind though he sought it      
diligently with tears4  #jab3jah ,for   
you have not come to a mountain that    
might be touched1          and that     
burned with fire1 and to blackness1     
darkness1 storm1  #jab3jai the sound of 
a trumpet1 and the voice of words2 which
 those who          heard it begged that
 not one more word should be spoken to  
them1  #jab3jbj for they could not stand
 that which was commanded1 ,if even     
an animal touches the mountain1 it shall
 be stoned,,tr adds or          shot

and to innumerable multitudes of angels1
  #jab3jbc to the general assembly and  
assembly of the firstborn who are       
enrolled in heaven1 to ,god the ,judge  
of all1 to the spirits          of just 
men made perfect1  #jab3jbd to ,jesus1  
the mediator of a new covenant1,jeremiah
 #ca3ca          and to the blood of    
sprinkling that speaks better than      
that of ,abel4  #jab3jbe ,see that you  
don't refuse him who speaks4  ,for if   
they didn't          escape when they   
refused him who warned on the ,earth1   
how much more will we not escape who    
turn away from him          who warns   
from heaven1  #jab3jbf whose voice shook
 the earth then1 but now he has         
promised1          saying1 ,yet once    
more ,i will shake not only the earth1  
but also the heavens4,haggai #b3f       
#jab3jbg ,this phrase1 ,yet once more1  

signifies the removing of those         
things that are shaken1 as of things    
that have been made1          that those
 things which are not shaken may remain4
  #jab3jbh ,therefore1 receiving a      
,kingdom that can't be shaken1          
let us have grace1 through which we     
serve ,god acceptably1          with    
reverence and awe1  #jab3jbi for our    
,god is a consuming fire4,deuteronomy   
#d3bd  #jac3jja ,let brotherly love     
continue4  #jac3jjb ,don't forget to    
show hospitality to strangers1 for in   
doing so1          some have entertained
 angels without knowing it4  #jac3jjc   
,remember those who are in bonds1 as    
bound with them2          and those who 
are ill-treated1 since you are also in  
the body4  #jac3jjd ,let marriage be    
held in honor among all1 and let        
the bed be undefiled3  but ,god will    
judge the sexually          immoral and 
adulterers4  #jac3jje ,be free from the 
love of money1 content with such things 
as you have1 for he has said1 ,i will in

 no way leave you1          neither will
 ,i in any way forsake you4,deuteronomy

courage we say1 ,the ,lord is my helper4

,remember your leaders1 men who spoke to
 you the word of ,god1          and     
considering the results of their        
conduct1 imitate their faith4  #jac3jjh 
,jesus ,christ is the same yesterday1   
today1 and forever4  #jac3jji ,don't be 
carried away by various and strange     
teachings1 for it          is good that 
the heart be established by grace1 not  
by food1          through which those   
who were so occupied were not benefited4
  #jac3jaj ,we have an altar from which 
those who serve the holy tabernacle     
have no right to eat4  #jac3jaa ,for the
 bodies of those animals1 whose blood is
 brought into          the holy place by
 the high priest as an offering for sin1
          are burned outside of the     
camp4,leviticus #af3bg  #jac3jab        

,therefore ,jesus also1 that he might   
sanctify the people through          his
 own blood1 suffered outside of the     
gate4  #jac3jac ,let us therefore go out
 to him outside of the camp1            
bearing his reproach4  #jac3jad ,for we 
don't have here an enduring city1 but we
 seek that          which is to come4   
#jac3jae ,through him1 then1 let us     
offer up a sacrifice of praise          
to ,god,psalm #ej3bc continually1 that  
is1 the fruit of lips          which    
proclaim allegiance to his name4        
#jac3jaf ,but don't forget to be doing  
good and sharing1 for with such         
sacrifices ,god is well pleased4        
#jac3jag ,obey your leaders and submit  
to them1 for they watch          on     
behalf of your souls1 as those who will 
give account1          that they may do 
this with joy1 and not with groaning1   
for that would be unprofitable for you4 
#jac3jah ,pray for us1 for we are       
persuaded that we have a good           
conscience1          desiring to live   

honorably in all things4  #jac3jai ,i   
strongly urge you to do this1 that ,i   
may be restored          to you sooner4

 brought again from the dead the great  
shepherd of the sheep with the blood of 
an eternal covenant1          our ,lord 
,jesus1  #jac3jba make you complete in
