21. In the same way, he sprinkled the tabernacle and all the articles of worship with blood.
22. According to the law almost everything is purified with blood, and without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness.

24. For the Messiah did not enter a sanctuary made with hands (only a model of the true one) but into heaven itself, so that He might now appear in the presence of God for us.

26. Otherwise, He would have had to suffer many times since the foundation of the world. But now He has appeared one time, at the end of the ages, for the removal of sin by the sacrifice of Himself.
