21 Moreover, both the tabernacle and all the vessels of the service, he sprinkled in like manner with the blood. 22 And nearly all things are cleansed, according to the law, with blood; and apart from shedding of blood there is no remission. 23 There was , therefore, a necessity that the copies of the things in Heaven should be cleansed with these; but the heavenly things themselves, with better sacrifices than these. 24 For Christ entered not into holy places made with hand, patterns of the true; but into Heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God in our behalf; 25 nor yet, that He should many times offer Himself, as the high priest enters into the Holies every year with blood not His own; 26 else had it been needful for Him ofttimes to suffer since the founding of a world; but now, once for all, at the end of the ages, He hath been manifested for the putting away of sin through the sacrifice of Himself. 27 And inasmuch as it is appointed to men once to die, but after this comes judgment; 28 so also Christ, having once for all been offered to bear the sins of many, will, to those who are eagerly waiting for Him; appear a second time apart from sin, unto salvation.
