希伯来书 9:23 CUVS

Expositor's Dictionary of Texts - Hebrews 9:1-28

On Modernising Christianity Hebrews 9:10 While in a very real sense Christianity was a new religion in the days of St Paul, in another, following his suggestion, it was a corrective, a revision and a modernisation of the old. The centuries have moved onward and our faith is no longer young. There are those among us who think that Christianity is now over-antiquated, that she is too old-fashioned, and that possibly there ought to be done for her what she in her youth did for the Jewish religion... read more

Arno Gaebelein's Annotated Bible - Hebrews 9:1-28

CHAPTER 9 1. The first tabernacle and its worship (Hebrews 9:1-10 ) 2. The blood and the perfect work accomplished (Hebrews 9:11-23 ) 3.

John Calvin

Geneva Study Bible - Hebrews 9:23

9:23 [It was] therefore necessary that the {o} patterns of things in the heavens should be purified with these; but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.(o) The counterparts of heavenly things were earthly, and therefore they were to be set forth with earthly things, as with the blood of beasts, wool and hyssop. But under Christ all things are heavenly, and therefore they could not be sanctified with the offering of his living blood. read more

L.M. Grant

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Hebrews 9:1-28

Chapters 9 and 10 form a wonderful climax in the orderly presentation of the truth in this epistle: If according to the new covenant, a man must be morally fitted for the presence of God by means of the new birth, as we have seen, yet the way into Gods presence, the holiest of all, must also be clearly made manifest. These chapters admirably and fully deal with this grand subject. And first, from verse 1 to 10, the service of the tabernacle is summarized for us, for its typical significance... read more

James Gray

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Hebrews 9:1-28

PRIESTHOOD OF CHRIST AND AARON CHRIST IS A PRIEST OF A BETTER COVENANT THAN AARON (Hebrews 8:0 ) Better not morally, but efficaciously, i.e., established on better promises (Hebrews 8:6 ), in the sense that they are written on the heart rather than tablets of stone (Hebrews 8:10 ); that they are universal in their application and not limited to a single people (Hebrews 8:11 ); and that they bring with them eternal forgiveness. CHRIST IS A PRIEST OF A BETTER TABERNACLE (Hebrews 9:1-14 )... read more

Robert Hawker

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Hebrews 9:15-23

(15) And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance. (16) For where a testament is, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator. (17) For a testament is of force after men are dead: otherwise it is of no strength at all while the testator liveth. (18) Whereupon neither the first testament was... read more

George Haydock

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - Hebrews 9:23

It is, or was necessary that the patterns of heavenly things (i.e. the former tabernacle and sanctuary) should be cleansed with these; that is, by the blood of such victims then offered. --- But the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices. By the heavenly things, may be understood the faithful, who are the members of Christ's Church, to whom heaven is prepared, and who must be cleansed by better sacrifices; that is, by the blood of Christ, and by his sacrifice on the cross.... read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Hebrews 9:23-28

23-28 It is evident that the sacrifices of Christ are infinitely better than those of the law, which could neither procure pardon for sin, nor impart power against it. Sin would still have been upon us, and have had dominion over us; but Jesus Christ, by one sacrifice, has destroyed the works of the devil, that believers may be made righteous, holy, and happy. As no wisdom, learning, virtue, wealth, or power, can keep one of the human race from death, so nothing can deliver a sinner from being... read more

Frank Binford Hole

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - Hebrews 9:1-99

Hebrews 9 CHAPTER 8 ends with the ominous words, “ready to vanish away.” Thus it was that the Holy Spirit, who inspired these words, prepared the minds of the Jewish disciples for the disappearance of their venerated religious system, which came to pass within a very few years by the destruction of Jerusalem. The temple being destroyed, the priesthood slain, the sacrifices stopped, Judaism has become but the pale and bloodless shadow of its former self. And in itself, and at its best, it was... read more

Paul E. Kretzmann

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Hebrews 9:23-28

The demands of the new covenant satisfied by Christ's perfect sacrifice: v. 23. It was therefore necessary that the patterns of things in the heavens should be purified with these, but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these. v. 24. For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, which are the figures of the true, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us; v. 25. nor yet that he should offer Himself often, as the high... read more
