I. The repeated sacrifices of the Old Covenant could never make perfect those who drew near.
-things = pragma = thing, matter, that which is done; idea of the real object
-make perfect = teleioo = make perfect, make complete, reach a goal
a. The Old Covenant sacrifices were incapable of making the sinner clean.
-clean = katharizo = make clean, pure, cleanse; perfect passive participle
-John 13:10
b. The Old Covenant sacrifices produced a yearly reminder of sin.
-reminder = anamnesis = remember
c. The Old covenant sacrifices could not take away sin.
-impossible = adunaton
-take away = aphaireo = take away from, remove; present active infinitive.
-Luke 22:50 (same word as cut off)
II. Christ's one sacrifice is sufficient to accomplish what the Old Covenant sacrifices were unable to achieve.
a. Christ was obedient to God's will.
-Is. 1:11-20, Amos 5:21-27
b. Christ's sacrifice replaces the Old Covenant sacrifices.
-take away = anaireo = to lift up, to take away, to remove
-establish = istemi = set, place, stand, confirm, establish
c. Christ's sacrifice sanctifies those who believe.
-has been sanctified = hagiazo = set apart, sanctify, purify, consecrate; perfect passive participle
