58:009:005 And over it the cherubims of glory shadowing the mercyseat; of
           which we cannot now speak particularly.

58:009:006 Now when these things were thus ordained, the priests went
           always into the first tabernacle, accomplishing the service of
           God.

58:009:007 But into the second went the high priest alone once every
           year, not without blood, which he offered for himself, and for
           the errors of the people: 

58:009:008 The Holy Ghost this signifying, that the way into the holiest
           of all was not yet made manifest, while as the first
           tabernacle was yet standing: 

58:009:009 Which was a figure for the time then present, in which were
           offered both gifts and sacrifices, that could not make him
           that did the service perfect, as pertaining to the conscience;

58:009:010 Which stood only in meats and drinks, and divers washings, and
           carnal ordinances, imposed on them until the time of
           reformation.

58:009:011 But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come,
           by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands,
           that is to say, not of this building;

58:009:012 Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood
           he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained
           eternal redemption for us.

58:009:013 For if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of an
           heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifieth to the purifying of
           the flesh: 

58:009:014 How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the
           eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your
           conscience from dead works to serve the living God?

58:009:015 And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament,
           that by means of death, for the redemption of the
           transgressions that were under the first testament, they which
           are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.

58:009:016 For where a testament is, there must also of necessity be the
           death of the testator.

58:009:017 For a testament is of force after men are dead:  otherwise it
           is of no strength at all while the testator liveth.

58:009:018 Whereupon neither the first testament was dedicated without
           blood.

58:009:019 For when Moses had spoken every precept to all the people
           according to the law, he took the blood of calves and of
           goats, with water, and scarlet wool, and hyssop, and sprinkled
           both the book, and all the people,

58:009:020 Saying, This is the blood of the testament which God hath
           enjoined unto you.
