(for the law made nothing perfect), and a bringing in of a better hope, through which we draw near to God.
--------------------
Hebrews 7:11
Now if perfection was through the Levitical priesthood (for under it the people have received the law), what further need was there for another priest to arise after the order of Melchizedek, and not be called after the order of Aaron?
Hebrews 7:12
For the priesthood being changed, there is of necessity a change made also in the law.
Hebrews 7:13
For he of whom these things are said belongs to another tribe, from which no one has officiated at the altar.
Hebrews 7:14
For it is evident that our Lord has sprung out of Judah, about which tribe Moses spoke nothing concerning priesthood.
Hebrews 7:15
This is yet more abundantly evident, if after the likeness of Melchizedek there arises another priest,
Hebrews 7:16
who has been made, not after the law of a fleshly commandment, but after the power of an endless life;
Hebrews 7:17
for it is testified, “You are a priest forever, according to the order of Melchizedek.”
Hebrews 7:18
For there is an annulling of a foregoing commandment because of its weakness and uselessness
Hebrews 7:19
(for the law made nothing perfect), and a bringing in of a better hope, through which we draw near to God.
Hebrews 7:20
Inasmuch as he was not made priest without the taking of an oath
Hebrews 7:21
(for they indeed have been made priests without an oath), but he with an oath by him that says of him, “The Lord swore and will not change his mind, ‘You are a priest forever, according to the order of Melchizedek.’ ”
Hebrews 7:22
By so much, Jesus has become the guarantee of a better covenant.
Hebrews 7:24
But he, because he lives forever, has his priesthood unchangeable.
-----
Hebrews 8:6
But now he has obtained a more excellent ministry, by as much as he is also the mediator of a better covenant, which on better promises has been given as law.
Hebrews 8:7
For if that first covenant had been faultless, then no place would have been sought for a second.
Hebrews 8:8
For finding fault with them, he said, “Behold, the days are coming”, says the Lord, “that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah;
Hebrews 8:9
not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; for they didn’t continue in my covenant, and I disregarded them,” says the Lord.
Hebrews 8:10
“For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days,” says the Lord: “I will put my laws into their mind; I will also write them on their heart. I will be their God, and they will be my people.
Hebrews 8:11
They will not teach every man his fellow citizen and every man his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ for all will know me, from their least to their greatest.
Hebrews 8:12
For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness. I will remember their sins and lawless deeds no more.”
Hebrews 8:13
In that he says, “A new covenant”, he has made the first obsolete. But that which is becoming obsolete and grows aged is near to vanishing away.
Hebrews 13:20
Now may the God of peace, who brought again from the dead the great shepherd of the sheep with the blood of an eternal covenant, our Lord Jesus,
-----
Hebrews 10:1
For the law, having a shadow of the good to come, not the very image of the things, can never with the same sacrifices year by year, which they offer continually, make perfect those who draw near.
Hebrews 10:2
Or else wouldn’t they have ceased to be offered, because the worshipers, having been once cleansed, would have had no more consciousness of sins?
Hebrews 10:3
But in those sacrifices there is a yearly reminder of sins.
Hebrews 10:14
For by one offering he has perfected forever those who are being sanctified.
Hebrews 9:8
The Holy Spirit is indicating this, that the way into the Holy Place wasn’t yet revealed while the first tabernacle was still standing.
John 1:17
For the law was given through Moses. Grace and truth were realized through Jesus Christ.
Colossians 2:17
which are a shadow of the things to come; but the body is Christ’s.
Hebrews 9:25
nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest enters into the holy place year by year with blood not his own,
Hebrews 10:5
Therefore when he comes into the world, he says, “You didn’t desire sacrifice and offering, but you prepared a body for me.
Hebrews 10:6
You had no pleasure in whole burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin.
Hebrews 10:18
Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.
Hebrews 13:9
Don’t be carried away by various and strange teachings, for it is good that the heart be established by grace, not by foods, through which those who were so occupied were not benefited.

For we don’t have a high priest who can’t be touched with the feeling of our infirmities, but one who has been in all points tempted like we are, yet without sin.

Isaiah 29:13
The Lord said, “Because this people draws near with their mouth and honors me with their lips, but they have removed their heart far from me, and their fear of me is a commandment of men which has been taught;

having abolished in his flesh the hostility, the law of commandments contained in ordinances, that he might create in himself one new man of the two, making peace,
John 14:6
Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.
2 Thessalonians 2:16
Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God our Father, who loved us and gave us eternal comfort and good hope through grace,
-----
Hebrews 7:25
Therefore he is also able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through him, seeing that he lives forever to make intercession for them.
Hebrews 7:26
For such a high priest was fitting for us: holy, guiltless, undefiled, separated from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;
Hebrews 7:27
who doesn’t need, like those high priests, to offer up sacrifices daily, first for his own sins, and then for the sins of the people. For he did this once for all, when he offered up himself.
Hebrews 7:28
For the law appoints men as high priests who have weakness, but the word of the oath, which came after the law, appoints a Son forever who has been perfected.

But you have come to Mount Zion and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to innumerable multitudes of angels,
Hebrews 11:16
But now they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed of them, to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them.
Hebrews 11:35
Women received their dead by resurrection. Others were tortured, not accepting their deliverance, that they might obtain a better resurrection.
Hebrews 12:27
This phrase, “Yet once more” signifies the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that have been made, that those things which are not shaken may remain.
Hebrews 8:1
Now in the things which we are saying, the main point is this: we have such a high priest, who sat down on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens,
-----
Hebrews 9:9
This is a symbol of the present age, where gifts and sacrifices are offered that are incapable, concerning the conscience, of making the worshiper perfect,
Hebrews 9:10
being only (with foods and drinks and various washings) fleshly ordinances, imposed until a time of reformation.
Hebrews 9:11
But Christ having come as a high priest of the coming good things, through the greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this creation,
Hebrews 10:4
For it is impossible that the blood of bulls and goats should take away sins.
Hebrews 9:13
For if the blood of goats and bulls, and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling those who have been defiled, sanctify to the cleanness of the flesh,
Hebrews 9:14
how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without defect to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?
Galatians 4:9
But now that you have come to know God, or rather to be known by God, why do you turn back again to the weak and miserable elemental principles, to which you desire to be in bondage all over again?

Galatians 2:16
yet knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ, even we believed in Christ Jesus, that we might be justified by faith in Christ and not by the works of the law, because no flesh will be justified by the works of the law.
Galatians 5:4
You are alienated from Christ, you who desire to be justified by the law. You have fallen away from grace.
