NASB | Hebrews 10:1 For the Law, since it has only a shadow of the good things to come and not the very form of things, can never, by the same sacrifices which they offer continually year by year, make perfect those who draw near. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Hebrews 10:1 For since the Law has only a shadow [just a pale representation] of the good things to come--not the very image of those things--it can never, by offering the same sacrifices continually year after year, make perfect those who approach [its altars]. |
Bible Question: I would like to hear the explaination of the differences between the OT covenant, and the NT covenant. OT covenant with the blood of animals, and the NT covenant through the blood of Jesus. Hebrews 9:1-28 |
Bible Answer: Dear sept14child, In answer to your question I would recommend you continue your reading into Hebrews 10:1-26. The essential difference as I see it, is a contrast between OT Law and NT Grace. Salvation-always having been by grace- was manifested in the OT as faith "evidenced by works" as we see of Abraham in Genesis 22:1-10 and Hebrews 11:17. You had to perform to inheret the blessing. By contrast, we are "...blessed with all the spiritual blessings in the heavenlies IN CHRIST." (Eph. 1:3). Accordingly, now we have, "For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision means anything, but faith working through love."( Gal.5:6) A bit oversimplified, maybe, but I feel this will give you a further foundation for your own study and understanding.
