24 for Christ is not entred into a sanctuary made by human art, such as is only representative of the true one, but into heaven itself, to appear from henceforth in the presence of God on our behalf: 25 nor to make a frequent offering of himself, as the high priest every year enters into the holy of holies with other blood than his own. 26 for then must he have suffered several times since the beginning of the world, when in the consummation of the ages, he has appeared once for all to expiate sin by offering himself as a sacrifice. 27 as then it is appointed that men should die but once, after which the judgment ensues; 28 so Christ being once offered up to take away the sins of many; he shall appear the second time, without making any further expiation to save those who expect him.
