Key Passages
For the law is only a shadow of the good things to come, not the realities themselves. It can never, by the same sacrifices offered year after year, make perfect those who draw near to worship.
But when this Priest had offered for all time one sacrifice for sins, He sat down at the right hand of God.
because by a single offering He has made perfect for all time those who are being sanctified.
Without father or mother or genealogy, without beginning of days or end of life, like the Son of God, he remains a priest for all time.
