| where remission of these is--as there is under the Gospel covenant (Heb 10:17). "Here ends the finale (Heb. 10:1-18) of the great tripartite arrangement (Heb. 7:1-25; 7:26-9:12; 9:13-10:18) of the middle portion of the Epistle. Its great theme was Christ a High Priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec. What it is to be a high priest after the order of Melchisedec is set forth, Heb. 7:1-25, as contrasted with the Aaronic order. That Christ, however, as High Priest, is Aaron's antitype in the true holy place, by virtue of His self-sacrifice here on earth, and Mediator of a better covenant, whose essential character the old only typified, we learn, Heb. 7:26-9:12. And that Christ's self-sacrifice, offered through the Eternal Spirit, is of everlasting power, as contrasted with the unavailing cycle of legal offerings, is established in the third part, Heb. 9:13-10:18; the first half of this last portion [Heb. 9:13-28], showing that both our present possession of salvation, and our future completion of it, are as certain to us as that He is with God, ruling as a Priest and reigning as a King, once more to appear, no more as a bearer of our sins, but in glory as a Judge. The second half, Heb. 10:1-18, reiterating the main position of the whole, the High Priesthood of Christ, grounded on His offering of Himself--its kingly character its eternal accomplishment of its end, confirmed by Psalms 40 and 110 and Jeremiah 31" [DELITZSCH in ALFORD]. |
| Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834] |
Now where remission of these is - Remission or forgiveness of sins; that is, of the sins mentioned in the previous verse.
There is no more offering for sin - If those sins are wholly blotted out, there is no more need of sacrifice to atone for them, any more than there is need to pay a debt again which has been once paid. The idea of Paul is, that in the Jewish dispensation there was a constant repeating of the remembrance of sins by the sacrifices which were offered, but that in reference to the dispensation under the Messiah, sin would be entirely cancelled. There would be one great and all-sufficient sacrifice, and when there was faith in that offering, sin would be absolutely forgiven. If that was the case, there would be no occasion for any further sacrifice for it, and the offering need not be repeated. This circumstance, on which the apostle insists so much, made a very important difference between the new covenant and the old. In the one, sacrifices were offered every day; in the other, the sacrifice once made was final and complete; in the one case, there was no such forgiveness but that the offender was constantly reminded of his sins by the necessity of the repetition of sacrifice; in the other, the pardon was so complete that all dread of wrath was taken away, and the sinner might look up to God as calmly and joyfully as if he had never been guilty of transgression. |

offering
Sacrifice, Summary"
(1) The first intimation of sacrifice is (Gen 3:21) the "coats of skins" having obviously come from slain animals. The first clear instance of sacrifice is (Gen 4:4) explained in (Heb 11:4). Abel's righteousness was the result of his sacrifice, not of his character.
(2) Before the giving of the law the head of the family was the family priest. By the law, an order of priests was established who alone could offer sacrifices. Those sacrifices were "shadows," types, expressing variously the guilt and need of the offerer in reference to God, and all pointing to Christ and fulfilled in Him.
(3) As foreshadowed by the types and explained by the New Testament, the sacrifice of Christ is;
penal; (Gal 3:13); (Co2 5:21).
substitutional; (Lev 1:4); (Isa 53:5); (Isa 53:6); (Co2 5:21); (Pe1 2:24).
voluntary; (Gen 22:9); (Joh 10:18).
redemptive; (Gal 3:13); (Eph 1:7); (Co1 6:20).
propitiatory; (Rom 3:25).
reconciling; (Co2 5:18); (Co2 5:19); (Col 1:21); (Col 1:22).
efficacious; (Joh 12:32); (Joh 12:33); (Rom 5:9); (Rom 5:10); (Co2 5:21); (Eph 2:13); (Heb 9:11); (Heb 9:12); (Heb 9:26); (Heb 10:10-17); (Jo1 1:7); (Rev 1:5) and
revelatory. (Joh 3:16); (Jo1 4:9); (Jo1 4:10).

| Vincent's Word Studies, by Marvin R. Vincent [1886] |
| There is no more offering for sin. Forgiveness of sin is the characteristic of the new covenant. In Jeremiah complete pardon of sins is promised. If the pardon is complete, there is left no place for the Levitical sacrifices under the new covenant. At this point the doctrinal portion of the epistle ends. |
| Adam Clarke Commentary on the Whole Bible - Published 1810-1826 |
Now where remission of these is - In any case, where sin is once pardoned, there is no farther need of a sin-offering; but every believer on Christ has his sin blotted out, and therefore needs no other offering for that sin.
"If," says Dr. Macknight, "after remission is granted to the sinner, there is no need of any more sacrifice for sin; and if Christ, by offering himself once, has perfected for ever the sanctified, Heb 10:14, the sacrifice of the mass, as it is called, about which the Romish clergy employ themselves so incessantly, and to which the papists trust for the pardon of their sins, has no foundation in Scripture. Nay, it is an evident impiety, as it proceeds upon the supposition that the offering of the body of Christ once is not sufficient to procure the pardon of sin, but must be frequently repeated. If they reply that their mass is only the representation and commemoration of the sacrifice of Christ, they give up the cause, and renounce an article of their faith, established by the council of Trent, which, in session xxii. can. 1, 3, declared the sacrifice of the mass to be a true and propitiatory sacrifice for sin. I say, give up the cause; for the representation and commemoration of a sacrifice is not a sacrifice. Farther, it cannot be affirmed that the body of Christ is offered in the mass, unless it can be said that, as often as it is offered, Christ has suffered death; for the apostle says expressly, Heb 9:25, Heb 9:26, that if Christ offered himself often, he must often have suffered since the foundation of the world." Let him disprove this who can. |
17 And [2532] their [846] sins [266] and [2532] iniquities [458] [846] will I remember [3415] no [3364] more [2089].
23 For [1063] all [3956] have sinned [264], and [2532] come short [5302] of the glory [1391] of God [2316];
10 Herein [1722] [5129] is [2076] love [26], not [3754] that [3756] we [2249] loved [25] God [2316], but [235] that [3754] he [846] loved [25] us [2248], and [2532] sent [649] his [846] Son [5207] to be the propitiation [2434] for [4012] our [2257] sins [266].
9 In [1722] this [5129] was manifested [5319] the love [26] of God [2316] toward [1722] us [2254], because [3754] that God [2316] sent [649] his [846] only begotten [3439] Son [5207] into [1519] the world [2889], that [2443] we might live [2198] through [1223] him [846].
16 For [1063] God [2316] so [3779] loved [25] the world [2889], that [5620] he gave [1325] his [846] only begotten [3439] Son [5207], that [2443] whosoever [3956] believeth [4100] in [1519] him [846] should [622] not [3361] perish [622], but [235] have [2192] everlasting [166] life [2222].
5 And [2532] from [575] Jesus [2424] Christ [5547], who is the faithful [4103] witness [3144], and the first begotten [4416] of [1537] the dead [3498], and [2532] the prince [758] of the kings [935] of the earth [1093]. Unto him that loved [25] us [2248], and [2532] washed [3068] us [2248] from [575] our [2257] sins [266] in [1722] his own [846] blood [129],
7 But [1161] if [1437] we walk [4043] in [1722] the light [5457], as [5613] he [846] is [2076] in [1722] the light [5457], we have [2192] fellowship [2842] one with another [3326] [240], and [2532] the blood [129] of Jesus [2424] Christ [5547] his [846] Son [5207] cleanseth [2511] us [2248] from [575] all [3956] sin [266].
10 By [1722] the which [3739] will [2307] we are [2070] sanctified [37] through [1223] the offering [4376] of the body [4983] of Jesus [2424] Christ [5547] once [2178] for all.
11 And [2532] [3303] every [3956] priest [2409] standeth [2476] daily [2596] [2250] ministering [3008] and [2532] offering [4374] oftentimes [4178] the same [846] sacrifices [2378], which [3748] can [1410] never [3763] take away [4014] sins [266]:
12 But [1161] this man [846], after he had offered [4374] one [3391] sacrifice [2378] for [5228] sins [266] for [1519] ever [1336], sat down [2523] on [1722] the right hand [1188] of God [2316];
13 From henceforth [3063] expecting [1551] till [2193] his [846] enemies [2190] be made [5087] his [846] footstool [5286] [4228].
14 For [1063] by one [3391] offering [4376] he hath perfected [5048] for [1519] ever [1336] them that are sanctified [37].
15 Whereof [1161] the Holy [40] Ghost [4151] also [2532] is a witness [3140] to us [2254]: for [1063] after [3326] that he had said before [4280],
16 This [3778] is the covenant [1242] that [3739] I will make [1303] with [4314] them [846] after [3326] those [1565] days [2250], saith [3004] the Lord [2962], I will put [1325] my [3450] laws [3551] into [1909] their [846] hearts [2588], and [2532] in [1909] their [846] minds [1271] will I write [1924] them [846];
17 And [2532] their [846] sins [266] and [2532] iniquities [458] [846] will I remember [3415] no [3364] more [2089].
26 For then [1893] must [1163] he [846] often [4178] have suffered [3958] since [575] the foundation [2602] of the world [2889]: but [1161] now [3568] once [530] in [1909] the end [4930] of the world [165] hath he appeared [5319] to [1519] put away [115] sin [266] by [1223] the sacrifice [2378] of himself [846].
12 Neither [3761] by [1223] the blood [129] of goats [5131] and [2532] calves [3448], but [1161] by [1223] his own [2398] blood [129] he entered in [1525] once [2178] into [1519] the holy place [39], having obtained [2147] eternal [166] redemption [3085] for us.
11 But [1161] Christ [5547] being come [3854] an high priest [749] of good things [18] to come [3195], by [1223] a greater [3187] and [2532] more perfect [5046] tabernacle [4633], not [3756] made with hands [5499], that is to say [5123], not [3756] of this [5026] building [2937];
13 But [1161] now [3570] in [1722] Christ [5547] Jesus [2424] ye [5210] who [3588] sometimes [4218] were [5607] far off [3112] are made [1096] nigh [1451] by [1722] the blood [129] of Christ [5547].
21 For [1063] he hath made [4160] him to be sin [266] for [5228] us [2257], who [3588] knew [1097] no [3361] sin [266]; that [2443] we [2249] might be made [1096] the righteousness [1343] of God [2316] in [1722] him [846].
10 For [1063] if [1487], when we were [5607] enemies [2190], we were reconciled [2644] to God [2316] by [1223] the death [2288] of his [846] Son [5207], much [4183] more [3123], being reconciled [2644], we shall be saved [4982] by [1722] his [846] life [2222].
9 Much [4183] more [3123] then [3767], being [1344] now [3568] justified [1344] by [1722] his [846] blood [129], we shall be saved [4982] from [575] wrath [3709] through [1223] him [846].
33 [1161] This [5124] he said [3004], signifying [4591] what [4169] death [2288] he should [3195] die [599].
32 And I [2504], if [1437] I be lifted up [5312] from [1537] the earth [1093], will draw [1670] all [3956] men unto [4314] me [1683].
22 In [1722] the body [4983] of his [846] flesh [4561] through [1223] death [2288], to present [3936] you [5209] holy [40] and [2532] unblameable [299] and [2532] unreproveable [410] in his [846] sight [2714]:
21 And [2532] you [5209], that were [5607] sometime [4218] alienated [526] and [2532] enemies [2190] in your mind [1271] by [1722] wicked [4190] works [2041], yet [1161] now [3570] hath he reconciled [604]
19 To wit [5613], that [3754] God [2316] was [2258] in [1722] Christ [5547], reconciling [2644] the world [2889] unto himself [1438], not [3361] imputing [3049] their [846] trespasses [3900] unto them [846]; and [2532] hath committed [5087] unto [1722] us [2254] the word [3056] of reconciliation [2643].
18 And [1161] all things [3956] are of [1537] God [2316], who [3588] hath reconciled [2644] us [2248] to himself [1438] by [1223] Jesus [2424] Christ [5547], and [2532] hath given [1325] to us [2254] the ministry [1248] of reconciliation [2643];
25 Whom [3739] God [2316] hath set forth [4388] to be a propitiation [2435] through [1223] faith [4102] in [1722] his [846] blood [129], to [1519] declare [1732] his [846] righteousness [1343] for [1223] the remission [3929] of sins [265] that are past [4266], through [1722] the forbearance [463] of God [2316];
20 For [1063] ye are bought [59] with a price [5092]: therefore [1211] glorify [1392] God [2316] in [1722] your [5216] body [4983], and [2532] in [1722] your [5216] spirit [4151], which [3748] are [2076] God's [2316].
7 In [1722] whom [3739] we have [2192] redemption [629] through [1223] his [846] blood [129], the forgiveness [859] of sins [3900], according [2596] to the riches [4149] of his [846] grace [5485];
13 Christ [5547] hath redeemed [1805] us [2248] from [1537] the curse [2671] of the law [3551], being made [1096] a curse [2671] for [5228] us [2257]: for [1063] it is written [1125], Cursed [1944] is every one [3956] that hangeth [2910] on [1909] a tree [3586]:
18 No man [3762] taketh [142] it [846] from [575] me [1700], but [235] I [1473] lay [5087] it [846] down [5087] of [575] myself [1683]. I have [2192] power [1849] to lay [5087] it [846] down [5087], and [2532] I have [2192] power [1849] to take [2983] it [846] again [3825]. This [5026] commandment [1785] have I received [2983] of [3844] my [3450] Father [3962].
9 And they came [0935] to the place [04725] which God [0430] had told [0559] him of; and Abraham [085] built [01129] an altar [04196] there, and laid [06186] the wood [06086] in order [06186], and bound [06123] Isaac [03327] his son [01121], and laid [07760] him on the altar [04196] upon [04605] the wood [06086].
24 Who [3739] his own self [846] bare [399] our [2257] sins [266] in [1722] his own [846] body [4983] on [1909] the tree [3586], that [2443] we [2198], being dead [581] to sins [266], should live [2198] unto righteousness [1343]: by [3739] whose [846] stripes [3468] ye were healed [2390].
21 For [1063] he hath made [4160] him to be sin [266] for [5228] us [2257], who [3588] knew [1097] no [3361] sin [266]; that [2443] we [2249] might be made [1096] the righteousness [1343] of God [2316] in [1722] him [846].
6 All we like sheep [06629] have gone astray [08582]; we have turned [06437] every one [0376] to his own way [01870]; and the LORD [03068] hath laid [06293] on him the iniquity [05771] of us all.
5 But he was wounded [02490] for our transgressions [06588], he was bruised [01792] for our iniquities [05771]: the chastisement [04148] of our peace [07965] was upon him; and with his stripes [02250] we are healed [07495].
4 And he shall put [05564] his hand [03027] upon the head [07218] of the burnt offering [05930]; and it shall be accepted [07521] for him to make atonement [03722] for him.
21 For [1063] he hath made [4160] him to be sin [266] for [5228] us [2257], who [3588] knew [1097] no [3361] sin [266]; that [2443] we [2249] might be made [1096] the righteousness [1343] of God [2316] in [1722] him [846].
13 Christ [5547] hath redeemed [1805] us [2248] from [1537] the curse [2671] of the law [3551], being made [1096] a curse [2671] for [5228] us [2257]: for [1063] it is written [1125], Cursed [1944] is every one [3956] that hangeth [2910] on [1909] a tree [3586]:
4 By faith [4102] Abel [6] offered [4374] unto God [2316] a more excellent [4119] sacrifice [2378] than [3844] Cain [2535], by [1223] which [3739] he obtained witness [3140] that he was [1511] righteous [1342], God [2316] testifying [3140] of [1909] his [846] gifts [1435]: and [2532] by [1223] it [846] he being dead [599] yet [2089] speaketh [2980] [2980].
4 And Abel [01893], he [01931] also brought [0935] of the firstlings [01062] of his flock [06629] and of the fat [02459] thereof. And the LORD [03068] had respect [08159] unto Abel [01893] and to his offering [04503]:
21 Unto Adam [0120] also and to his wife [0802] did the LORD [03068] God [0430] make [06213] coats [03801] of skins [05785], and clothed them [03847].
26 For then [1893] must [1163] he [846] often [4178] have suffered [3958] since [575] the foundation [2602] of the world [2889]: but [1161] now [3568] once [530] in [1909] the end [4930] of the world [165] hath he appeared [5319] to [1519] put away [115] sin [266] by [1223] the sacrifice [2378] of himself [846].
25 Nor [3761] yet that [2443] he should offer [4374] himself [1438] often [4178], as [5618] the high priest [749] entereth [1525] into [1519] the holy place [39] every [2596] year [1763] with [1722] blood [129] of others [245];
14 For [1063] by one [3391] offering [4376] he hath perfected [5048] for [1519] ever [1336] them that are sanctified [37].
