18So that even the first agreement was not made without blood.
19For when Moses had given all the rules of the law to the people, he took the blood of goats and young oxen, with water and red wool and hyssop, and put it on the book itself and on all the people,
20Saying, This blood is the sign of the agreement which God has made with you.
21And the blood was put on the Tent and all the holy vessels in the same way.
22And by the law almost all things are made clean with blood, and without blood there is no forgiveness.
23For this cause it was necessary to make the copies of the things in heaven clean with these offerings; but the things themselves are made clean with better offerings than these.
24For Christ did not go into a holy place which had been made by men's hands as the copy of the true one; but he went into heaven itself, and now takes his place before the face of God for us.
