Hebrews
Chapter
10 {Note: The repetition here is for a reason. God wants us to know there is nothing in life more important then the ONE sacrifice of Jesus Christ on the cross! Don't forget it!}
{Inadequacy
of Shadows} {Note: If the blood of a sacrificial animal - the shadow - would save, then why keep killing all the animals over and over and over and over?}
3~~But
in those sacrifices {Levitical offerings}
4~~Therefore
. . . impossible . . .
5~~Therefore
when He {Christ} entered into the world, {Note: This is not an exact quote from Psalm 40:6-8. Some things are changed. Others are left out when pertinent. In Psalms 40:6, Jesus said 'You have pierced my ears'. This meant to voluntarily become a slave of the Father. (A person wanting to be a slave of someone would have the master, if he agreed, pierce his ear to the door of his house). 'You have prepared a body for me' means the same thing. That is how Jesus voluntarily became subordinate to the Plan of God the father . . . by taking human form.}
6~~"You
have not been propitiated/satisfied
7~~
"At that time {in the cradle} {Note: Refers to verses such as: Genesis 3:15 (seed of the woman); Micah 5:2; Isaiah 7:14; 9:6.}
8~~Above
{verses 5-6 and citing Psalms 40} when He said,
9~~At
that time {again from the cradle}
{Application
Follows:} {Note: There are two new covenants. In the Church Age, the new covenant to the Church - mystery doctrines. To the Jews, there will be mentioned later a new covenant for them also.}
{Purpose
of the Lord's Metamorphism} {Note: A form of 'to be' (eimi) with a perfect participle (hagiazo - sanctification) is a 'Perfect Periphrastic' sentence structure. It denotes the highest form of permanence. We are ear-marked for blessing by God in Time . . . in the devil's kingdom as part of His victory in the angelic conflict.}
{Verses
11-14: Results of Jesus' Efficacious Sacrifice} {Note: The Levitical priests always STOOD to make sacrifices. Jesus Christ SAT because he is Royalty. We also sit as royalty. The Levitical priesthood was a 'working' priesthood. The Royal Priesthood is a resting priesthood. Resting on the promises of God.} {Note: Sin in Verse 11 is in the singular. When in the singular, it refers to - source of all sins - The Old Sin Nature and the sins that result in one-- the problem going back to Adam's sin, because of which (Adam's) sin, we are all condemned at birth - sin of the father passed to the child.} {Note: When Jesus sat down at the right hand of God, two things happened. He won the strategic victory in the angelic conflict. Second, the 'shadows' of the Mosaic Law and the Holy of Holies was ended/superceded and the veil covering the Holy of Holies was ripped by God.}
13~~From
that time onward {since Jesus sat down} . . .
14~~For
by means of one {unique} offering,
{Start
of the Explanation of the New Covenant to Israel - they do NOT lose out!}
{Intro
to the Paragraph on the 'Willful Sin' starting in Verse 26}
{Verses
19-25: Applications for the Royal Family} {Note: In effect the second veil said 'Reserved for Royalty ONLY' on the Holy of Holies. Today WE live where the Jews were not permitted to even enter!}
20~~Which
{access/entrance} He {Jesus} has dedicated/inaugurated a 'newly
slain'/'freshly sacrificed' {blood of Christ} {Note: This verse reinforces what might be missed in just reading the gospels - that the 'split veil' of the Holy of Holies, mentioned in the gospels (Luke 23:44-45, Matthew 27:51, Mark 15:37-38) and as occurring while Jesus was on the cross, were related events. That Holy of Holies at that point was superceded by the real Holy of Holies.} 21~~Even . . . {is Jesus} an illustrious Priest over the house of God! {Note: This sentence is very STRONG verse in the original Greek.} {Note: While Jesus was hanging on the cross bearing our sins, God the Father split the veil that separated the Holy of Holies from the 'Holy Place' in the temple. This huge veil was ripped in the middle from top to bottom. Now we have access to our 'home' the Holy of Holies.} {Note: In the next paragraph, we have 'hortatory subjunctives'. In the Greek, this is formed when you have 'the first person plural' with 'a verb in the subjunctive mood'. It is like a command or a request to join the writer in doing this, but it allows for your volition. It is saying 'keep doing this' if you 'will' but it is your choice.}
{Verses
22-25: New Function for the Royal Family} {Note: This does not mean you must know all doctrine immediately. It means that when there is a contradiction between what you think and what doctrine says - then you should have full confidence that doctrine is correct.}
{Self-ward
Hortatory Subjunctive}
{Man-ward
Hortatory Subjunctive}
{Doctrine-ward
(like a Hortatory Subjunctive) - Highest type of Self-Discipline} {Note: "So much the more" is very, very strong. The writer switched from Attic Greek to pure Classical Greek to make the emphasis. The end of phase II is coming for everyone. Your consistent intake of the Word is an encouragement to others to also follow the colors.} ************************************************** Joshua_Sozo and Syndein are the Trademarks of Syndein a California DBA of Kenneth Sidley & Associates, Inc., a California Corporation.
