This ritual was a temporary measure, symbolizing the need for a more perfect sacrifice. The blood of animals was insufficient for true atonement, serving as a foreshadowing of the ultimate sacrifice to come. The use of animal blood highlights the limitations of the Old Covenant and the need for a superior, lasting solution.<p><b>but He entered the Most Holy Place once for all by His own blood</b><br>Jesus, as the ultimate High Priest, entered the heavenly sanctuary, not the earthly tabernacle, offering His own blood as the perfect and final sacrifice. This act fulfilled the requirements of the Law and established a New Covenant. The phrase "once for all" emphasizes the completeness and sufficiency of Christ's sacrifice, contrasting with the repeated animal sacrifices under the Old Covenant. His entry into the Most Holy Place signifies the opening of direct access to God for believers, a privilege not available under the Old Covenant.<p><b>thus securing eternal redemption</b><br>The term "eternal redemption" indicates a permanent and complete deliverance from sin, achieved through Christ's sacrifice. Unlike the temporary atonement provided by animal sacrifices, Jesus' offering provides a once-and-for-all solution to the problem of sin. This redemption is not only for the present but extends into eternity, ensuring believers' salvation and reconciliation with God. The concept of eternal redemption is rooted in the promises of the New Covenant, as prophesied in <a href="/jeremiah/31-31.htm">Jeremiah 31:31-34</a>, where God promises to forgive sins and remember them no more.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/j/jesus_christ.htm">Jesus Christ</a></b><br>The central figure in this verse, who enters the Most Holy Place.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/m/most_holy_place.htm">Most Holy Place</a></b><br>The innermost part of the tabernacle/temple, symbolizing God's presence.<br><br>3. <b><a href="/topical/b/blood_of_goats_and_calves.htm">Blood of Goats and Calves</a></b><br>Refers to the Old Testament sacrificial system, where animal blood was used for atonement.<br><br>4. <b><a href="/topical/e/eternal_redemption.htm">Eternal Redemption</a></b><br>The salvation and deliverance secured by Jesus through His sacrifice.<br><br>5. <b><a href="/topical/o/old_covenant_sacrifices.htm">Old Covenant Sacrifices</a></b><br>The system of sacrifices under the Mosaic Law, which is contrasted with Christ's sacrifice.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><b><a href="/topical/t/the_superiority_of_christ's_sacrifice.htm">The Superiority of Christ's Sacrifice</a></b><br>Unlike the repeated animal sacrifices, Christ's sacrifice was once for all, highlighting its sufficiency and finality.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/a/access_to_god.htm">Access to God</a></b><br>Through Jesus' sacrifice, believers have direct access to God, symbolized by His entry into the Most Holy Place.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/e/eternal_redemption.htm">Eternal Redemption</a></b><br>Christ's sacrifice secures eternal redemption, offering believers assurance of salvation and eternal life.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/t/the_fulfillment_of_the_old_covenant.htm">The Fulfillment of the Old Covenant</a></b><br>Jesus fulfills and surpasses the Old Covenant sacrificial system, establishing a new covenant based on His blood.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/l/living_in_light_of_redemption.htm">Living in Light of Redemption</a></b><br>Believers are called to live in gratitude and holiness, reflecting the eternal redemption secured by Christ.<div class="vheading2">Lists and Questions</div><a href="/top10/lessons_from_hebrews_9.htm">Top 10 Lessons from Hebrews 9</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/do_leviticus_rules_conflict_with_christianity.htm">(Leviticus 6) In light of New Testament teachings on sacrifice and atonement, do these sacrificial rules conflict with or undermine later Christian doctrines?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/what_is_'pleading_the_blood'.htm">What does "pleading the blood of Jesus" mean?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/what_is_the_redemption_price.htm">What is the redemption price?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/what_is_jesus'_role_as_high_priest.htm">What does Jesus as our High Priest mean?</a><a name="commentary" id="commentary"></a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><span class="versiontext"><a href="/commentaries/hebrews/9-12.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a></span><span class="p"><br /><br /><br /></span><a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Greek</div><span class="word">[He did not enter]</span><br /><span class="grk">&#959;&#8016;&#948;&#8050;</span> <span class="translit">(oude)</span><br /><span class="parse">Conjunction<br /></span><span class="str"><a href="/greek/strongs_3761.htm">Strong's 3761: </a> </span><span class="str2">Neither, nor, not even, and not.
