- Reading the Text:
- Historical References, Commentary and
Comparative Texts:
- From the Geneva Notes.
- "Seeing that the sacrifices of
the law could not do it, therefore Christ speaking of himself as of
our High Priest manifested in the flesh, witnesses plainly that God
rests not in the sacrifices, but in the obedience of his Son our
High Priest, in whose obedience he offered up himself once to his
Father for us."
- From
Matthew Henry's
Commentary.
- "The righteousness brought in,
and the sacrifice once offered by Christ, are of eternal power, and
his salvation shall never be done away."
- From Wesley's Notes.
- "To offer a more acceptable
sacrifice; and by this very act he taketh away the legal, that he
may establish the evangelical, dispensation."
- From the
Commentary on the Whole Bible
(Jamieson, Fausset and Brown, 1871).
- From
The People's
New Testament, B.W. Johnson, 1891.

10:1-18: Jesus Christ, The Final Sacrifice," Terry A. Larm, (Theological
Gathering Winter 1997).
- "What does it take to put an
end to sacrifices? There is one sacrifice, and only one, that puts
an end to all other sacrifices. It is the sacrifice that God has
willed. It is the sacrifice that is willingly given in absolute
obedience to God's will. But it is not just a matter of obedience
and will. It is also sacrifice. The "body" that God has
prepared for the offering must be sacrificed. This atonement is the
permanent one."

Pleases God," analysis and reflections by Cathy Lessman in Sabbatheology

- "Although today we don't
literally sacrifice animal bodies, we are equally caught up in our
own sacrificial practices, and they are just as repetitive-just as
desperate."
