And where
This phrase introduces a condition or a state of being. In the context of Hebrews, it refers to the new covenant established through Jesus Christ. The Greek word used here, "hopou," signifies a specific place or condition, emphasizing the definitive nature of the forgiveness that has been achieved. Historically, this reflects the transition from the old covenant, which required repeated sacrifices, to the new covenant, where Christ's sacrifice is once and for all.

these have been forgiven
The word "forgiven" is derived from the Greek "apheōntai," which means to send away or to let go. This term is rich with the imagery of the Day of Atonement in the Old Testament, where the scapegoat would carry away the sins of the people into the wilderness. In the new covenant, this forgiveness is complete and permanent, achieved through the sacrifice of Jesus. The historical context here is crucial, as it marks a radical shift from the temporary and repetitive nature of Old Testament sacrifices to the finality of Christ's atonement.

an offering for sin
This phrase refers to the sacrifices that were required under the Mosaic Law to atone for sins. The Greek term "prosphora" is used here, which means an offering or a sacrifice. In the Old Testament, offerings were a central part of worship and atonement, symbolizing the people's repentance and God's forgiveness. However, these offerings were never sufficient to completely remove sin, as they had to be repeated continually. Theologically, this points to the insufficiency of the old sacrificial system and the necessity of a perfect sacrifice.

is no longer needed
The phrase "no longer needed" is translated from the Greek "ouketi," meaning no more or no longer. This signifies the completion and sufficiency of Christ's sacrifice. Historically, this was a revolutionary concept for the Jewish audience of the time, who were accustomed to the ongoing cycle of sacrifices. Theologically, it underscores the finality and completeness of Jesus' atonement, emphasizing that His sacrifice was once for all, fulfilling the requirements of the law and rendering further sacrifices unnecessary.

(18) Now where.--Bather, But where remission (or forgiveness, see Hebrews 9:22) of these is, there is no longer offering for sin. Here the argument reaches its triumphant close.

At this point we enter on the last great division of the Epistle (Hebrews 10:19 to Hebrews 13:25), which is occupied with earnest exhortation, encouragement to perseverance alternating with solemn warning against apostasy. The first section of this main division extends to the end of this chapter.
