Hebrews 9:11-10:18 NIV

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Hebrews 9:8-14

In these verses the apostle undertakes to deliver to us the mind and meaning of the Holy Ghost in all the ordinances of the tabernacle and legal economy, comprehending both place and worship. The scriptures of the Old Testament were given by inspiration of God; holy men of old spoke and wrote as the Holy Ghost directed them. And these Old-Testament records are of great use and significancy, not only to those who first received them, but even to Christians, who ought not to satisfy themselves... read more

William Barclay's Daily Study Bible - Hebrews 9:11-14

9:11-14 But when Christ arrived upon the scene, a high priest of the good things which are to come, by means of a tabernacle which was greater and better able to produce the results for which it was meant, a tabernacle not made by the hands of men--that is, a tabernacle which did not belong to this world order--and not by the blood of goats and bullocks but by his own blood, he entered once and for all into the Holy Place because he had secured for us an eternal redemption. For if the blood... read more

John Gill

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Hebrews 9:11

But Christ being come an high priest ,.... Christ is come, as appears from the cessation of civil government among the Jews, which was not to be till Shiloh came; from the destruction of the second temple, into which the Messiah was to come, and did; from the expiration of Daniel's weeks, at which he was to appear, and be cut off; from the coming of John the Baptist, his forerunner, and from the preaching of the Gospel to the Gentiles, and the calling and conversion of them, and the effusion... read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Hebrews 9:11

But Christ being come a high priest of good things - I think this and the succeeding verses not happily translated: indeed, the division of them has led to a wrong translation; therefore they must be taken together, thus: But the Christ, the high priest of those good things (or services) which were to come, through a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is, not of the same workmanship, entered once for all into the sanctuary; having obtained eternal redemption for... read more

John Calvin

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Hebrews 9:11

Verse 11 11.But Christ being come, etc. He now sets before us the reality of the things under the Law, that it may turn our eyes from them to itself; for he who believes that the things then shadowed forth under the Law have been really found in Christ, will no longer cleave to the shadows, but will embrace the substance and the genuine reality. But the particulars of the comparison between Christ and the ancient high priest, ought to be carefully noticed. He had said that the high priest... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Hebrews 9:6-13

The Day of Atonement fulfilled, and its imperfect blessings perfected in Christ. In dealing with the abolition of the types of the old economy since their fulfillment in the high priesthood of Christ ( Hebrews 9:1-28 ; Hebrews 10:18 ), the writer comes here to dwell on the Jewish Day of Atonement. That day is the key to these and following verses, and the most forcible illustration of our Lord's high priestly work. This day was at the basis of the Jewish system; by its services,... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Hebrews 9:11-12

But Christ having come ( παραγενόμενος , cf. Matthew 3:1 ; Luke 12:51 ) a High Priest (or, as High Priest ) of the good things to come, through the greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this creation ( κτίσεως ) , nor yet through the blood of goats and calves, but through his own blood, entered in once for all ( ἐφάπαξ ) into the holy place, having obtained ( εὑράμενος , not necessarily antecedent to εἰσῆλθεν ... read more

The pre-eminent priesthood. "But Christ being come a High Priest of good things to come," etc. Our Lord is here represented as the pre-eminent High Priest in three respects. I. IN THE TEMPLE IN WHICH HE MINISTERS . 1. The temple in which he ministers is itself pre-eminent. He has "entered in once for all into the holy place." He ministers in the true holy of holies, of which the Jewish one was only a figure. He is not in the symbolized, but in the veritable and... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Hebrews 9:11-12

Christ's eternal priesthood. Over against the imperfection and material character of the laws of Moses which concerned meats, drinks, and divers washings, there is here introduced the exalted nature and efficiency of the Redeemer's priesthood. I. This appears IN THE FUTURE AND ENDURING EFFECTS OF HIS SACRIFICE . All his office relates chiefly to eternity, whereas the work of the Levitical priesthood had to do with annual atonement, purity of person, and temporal... read more
