For if we deliberately keep on sinning after receiving the knowledge of the truth, no further sacrifice for sins is left for us, ¹ 

By faith we understand that the worlds ¹  were set in order at God’s command, ²  so that the visible has its origin in the invisible. ³ 

In fact, the scene ¹  was so terrifying that Moses said, “I shudder with fear.” ² 

We have an altar that those who serve in the tabernacle have no right to eat from.
