23 Therefore, as had to be [maurenen = by need], the images of the heavenly things were by them [tai-nen] purified, but the heavenly things themselves have been purified by sacrifices which were better than such sacrifices. 24 For Christ went into, not a sanctuary made by hands, but heaven itself, to come before God's face on our behalf. 26 Furthermore, he did not come to sacrifice himself frequently, like the chief priest goes into the sanctuary from year to year, bringing blood which is not is own. 26 Then it was [= had been] necessary for him to suffer frequently from the founding of the world. But now he has made himself known at a single time and forever at the conclusion of the age, to put away sin by sacrificing himself. 27 And as [it] is reserved for Men to die a single time, but thereafter a judgement, 28 so also the Christ was sacrifice a single time and forever to carry the sins of many. He will not come concerning sin at the second occasion that he will show himself, to [those] that look to him in order to receive salvation.
