| 15 | And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance. | Therefore Christ is the mediator of a new covenant, so that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance, now that He has died to redeem them from the transgressions committed under the first covenant. | And for this cause he is the mediator of a new covenant, that a death having taken place for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first covenant, they that have been called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance. |
In context
AI-assisted, sourcedHebrews 9:11-22The blood of Christ
About Hebrews 9The first covenant had "a worldly sanctuary," with the holy place and "the Holiest of all," into which "went the high priest alone once every year, not without blood," showing that "the way into the holiest of all was not yet made manifest." But Christ, "an high priest of good things to come," entered "by his own blood... once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us," and his blood shall "purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God." "Without shedding of blood is no remission," and as men die once and then face judgment, "So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many," and "shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation."
