Study 13 From The Book of
Hebrews Is: Hebrews 10:1-18
1.
Write down as many contrasts as
you can find between the sacrifices of the Tabernacle and the sacrifice offered
by Christ. Why did the latter succeed where the former failed?
2.
What consequences of Christ’s
sacrifice (a) are enjoyed by Him, and (b) can be enjoyed by us?
3.
To what truths does the Holy
Spirit bear witness in the Old Testament passages which are here quoted?
Notes
1.
Verses 5-9. The truth
emphasized here is that a moral act of personal obedience has superseded ritual
ceremonies, which in themselves had no inherent worth. They were only ‘a shadow of the good things
to come’ (verse 1).
2.
Verses 1, 10, 14. ‘Perfected’
and ‘sanctified’: the meaning is that by
Christ’s one sacrifice we are brought for ever into a perfect, unalterable
relationship of acceptance with God and consecration to His service. No further
offering for sin is necessary (verse 18).
