Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Hebrews 10:7-18

Here the apostle raises up and exalts the Lord Jesus Christ, as high as he had laid the Levitical priesthood low. He recommends Christ to them as the true high priest, the true atoning sacrifice, the antitype of all the rest: and this he illustrates, I. From the purpose and promise of God concerning Christ, which are frequently recorded in the volume of the book of God, Heb. 10:7. God had not only decreed, but declared by Moses and the prophets, that Christ should come and be the great high... read more

William Barclay's Daily Study Bible - Hebrews 10:11-18

10:11-18 Again, every priest stands every day engaged upon his service; he stands offering the same sacrifices over and over again, and they are sacrifices of such a kind that they can never take away sins. But he offered one single sacrifice for sin and then took his seat for ever at the right hand of God, and for the future he waits until his enemies are made the footstool of his feet. For by one offering and for all time he perfectly gave us that cleansing we need to enter into the... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Hebrews 10:15

Wherefore the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us ,.... In Jeremiah 31:33 . This preface to the following citation shows that the books of the Old Testament are of divine original and authority; that the penmen of them were inspired by the Holy Ghost; that he existed in the times of the Old Testament; that he is truly and properly God, the Lord, or Jehovah, that speaks in the following verses; and that he is a distinct divine Person, and the author of the covenant of grace; and in what he... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Hebrews 10:17

And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more. See Gill on Hebrews 8:10 . The words are cited to a different purpose here than there; the principal thing for which they are cited here, is to observe God's promise of non-remembrance of sin; which is no other than remission of sin, and which is not consistent with legal sacrifices, in which there is a remembrance of sin every year, Hebrews 10:3 and consequently, since this new covenant has taken place, legal sacrifices must be... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Hebrews 10:18

Now where remission of these is ,.... That is, of these sins; and that there is remission of them, is evident from this promise of the covenant, just now produced; from God's gracious proclamation of it; from the shedding of Christ's blood for it; from his exaltation at the Father's right hand to give it; from the Gospel declaration of it; and from the several instances of persons favoured with it: there is no more offering for sin ; there may be other offerings, as of praise and... read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Hebrews 10:15

The Holy Ghost - is a witness to us - The words are quoted from Jeremiah 31:33 , Jeremiah 31:34 , and here we are assured that Jeremiah spoke by the inspiration of the Spirit of God. Had said before - See Hebrews 8:10 , Hebrews 8:12 , and the notes there. read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Hebrews 10:18

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, Hebrews 10:14 , the sacrifice of the mass, as it is called, about... read more

John Calvin

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Hebrews 10:15

Verse 15 15.The Holy Ghost also is a witness, etc. (168) This testimony from Jeremiah is not adduced the second time without reason or superfluously. He quoted it before for a different purpose, even to show that it was necessary for the Old Testament to be abrogated, because another, a new one, had been promised, and for this end, to amend the weakness of the old. (169) But he has now another thing in view; for he takes his stand on these words alone, Their iniquities will I remember no more;... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Hebrews 10:1-18

Close of the argument. This concluding passage presents little more than a re-statement of some points which have been already marked in the discussion which occupies the three preceding chapters. The kernel-thought of the paragraph is expressed in Hebrews 10:9 : "He taketh away the first" (the Jewish sacrifices), "that he may establish the second" (redemption by the sacrifice of himself). I. THE INHERENT WORTHLESSNESS OF THE LEVITICAL SACRIFICES , ( Hebrews 10:1-4 )... read more
