bulletHistorical References, Commentary and Comparative Texts:
bullet III.7, Stromata, Clement of Alexandria (c 200)
bullet Chapter XI, On Modesty, Tertullian (c. 217)
bullet "Christ Our Great High Priest," Martin Luther, c. 1522.
bulletFrom the Geneva Notes.
bullet"If the outward sprinkling of blood and ashes of beasts was a true and effectual sign of purifying and cleansing, how much more shall the thing itself and the truth being present which in times past was shadowed by those external sacraments do it? That is to say, his blood, which is man's blood and also the blood of the Son of God, and therefore has an everlasting power of purifying and cleansing."
bulletFrom Matthew Henry's Commentary.
bullet"The depth of the mystery of the sacrifice of Christ, we cannot dive into, the height we cannot comprehend. We cannot search out the greatness of it, or the wisdom, the love, the grace that is in it. But in considering the sacrifice of Christ, faith finds life, food, and refreshment."
bulletFrom Wesley's Notes.
bullet"The Father delivers up the kingdom to the Son; and the Holy Ghost becomes the gift of the Messiah, being, as it were, sent according to his good pleasure."
bulletFrom the Commentary on the Whole Bible (Jamieson, Fausset and Brown, 1871).
bullet"Christ--The Messiah, of whom all the prophets foretold; not "Jesus" here. From whom the "reformation" (Heb 9:10), or rectification, emanates, which frees from the yoke of carnal ordinances, and which is being realized gradually now, and shall be perfectly in the consummation of "the age (world) to come." "Christ . . . High Priest," exactly answers to Le 4:5, "the priest that is anointed."     
bulletFrom The People's New Testament, B.W. Johnson, 1891.
bullet"Those who served God under it offered sacrifices which were types of Christ's sacrifices, but they could not be made efficacious without Christ. It is by his death that they which are called, of every dispensation, have the promise of eternal inheritance."
bulletContemporary Commentary, Studies, and Exegesis:
bullet "First Thoughts on Passages on Year B Epistle Passages in the Lectionary: Pentecost 22," William Loader, Murdoch University, Uniting Church in Australia.
bullet"We might even seek to emulate the level of creativity our author has shown when we face the challenge of speaking this same message to people in our day who live in a different symbolic world but face substantially the same needs."
bullet Comments (commentary) and Clippings (technical notes for in-depth study), Chris Haslam, Anglican Diocese of Montreal.
bullet "Christ's Eternal Redemption," Rev. Bryan Findlayson, Lectionary Bible Studies and Sermons, Pumpkin Cottage Ministry Resources. Includes detailed textual notes.
bulletArticles & Background:
bullet "Blood and Stone: Violence in the Bible & the Eye of the Illustrator," Barry Moser, CrossCurrents, Summer 2001.
bullet"...always, cohort and companion in these mythic or sacred stories, there is the preponderance, the vehemence, of violence."
