Hebrews10:11
11 And every priest standeth daily ministring, and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins.
Having proved, that not the yearly repeated Legal Sacrifices could perfect a Sinner, but only the Sacrifice of Christ, the Spirit proceeds to prove, that the daily legal Sacrifices can do as little for this Work as the annual; and therefore these Hebrews ought to desert all these, and depend only upon Christ's. From v. 11, to 19. every Priest in Aaron's Family in his Course daily ministring, stood at the Altar, and performed the Service appointed him by God, offering often the same bloody Sacrifices to God, of Bulls, Goats, Sheep, Fowl, many times in one day, and for many days together, ch. 7.27.
These were not available either to the Priests Offering, or those who brought them to be offered for the spiritual and eternal Expiation of their Sins, as to their Guilt, Stain, Power or Punishment, not any, nor all of these, none could do it at any time. See v. 4.
