Notes

Hebrews 10:14

made perfect: See study notes on Hebrews 7:11, 28.
those who are being sanctified: This means being fully purified from sins.

Hebrews 10:11–14

Christ’s sacrifice was greater and final. This was different from the repeated sacrifices made by the priests under the old covenant.

Hebrews 9:11–10:18

The author compares the old system (Hebrews 9:1 –10) with Christ's superior sacrifice as high priest. Christ offered his own blood, not animal blood (9:13 –22; see also 9:7). His offering took place in the heavenly tabernacle, not the earthly one (9:23 –24; see also 9:1 –5). Unlike repeated offerings, Christ's sacrifice happened only once (9:25–10:18; see also 7:27; 9:6 –7).

Hebrews 9:1–10:18

This section explains that Christ's death, as the sacrifice in the new covenant, is better than the sacrifices in the old covenant. In Hebrews 9:1 –10, the author describes worship practices under the old covenant rules (see Exodus 28 –29; Leviticus 1–10; 16:1–17:16). In Hebrews 9:11–10:18, these rules are compared to Christ's superior offering.

Hebrews 8:1–10:18

This passage explains that the role of Jesus as the heavenly high priest is better than the role of earthly priests.
