So even the first covenant was inaugurated with blood.<n id="1" />

so much that he promised with an oath<n id="1" /> to give her whatever she asked.

<p class="bodytext">&#8220;Therefore, King Agrippa,<n id="1" /> I was not disobedient<n id="2" /> to the heavenly<n id="3" /> vision,

From there we cast off<n id="1" /> and arrived at Rhegium,<n id="2" /> and after one day a south wind sprang up<n id="3" /> and on the second day we came to Puteoli.<n id="4" />

<t /><p class="bodytext">Therefore, holy brothers and sisters,<n id="1" /> partners in a heavenly calling, take note of Jesus, the apostle and high priest whom we confess,<n id="2" />

and he reasoned<n id="1" /> that God could even raise him from the dead, and in a sense<n id="2" /> he received him back from there.

Then it says, &#8216;I will return to the home I left.&#8217;<n id="1" /> When it returns,<n id="2" /> it finds the house<n id="3" /> empty, swept clean, and put in order.<n id="4" />

From there they sailed back to Antioch,<n id="1" /> where they had been commended<n id="2" /> to the grace of God for the work they had now completed.<n id="3" />

So he is able to save completely those who come to God through him, because he always lives to intercede for them.

For every high priest is appointed to offer both gifts and sacrifices. So this one too had to have something to offer.

<t /><p class="bodytext">Children, it is the last hour, and just as you heard that the antichrist is coming, so now many antichrists<n id="1" /> have appeared. We know from this that it is the last hour.

Then the one who had received the one talent came and said, &#8216;Sir, I knew that you were a hard man, harvesting where you did not sow, and gathering where you did not scatter seed,

But his master answered,<n id="1" /> &#8216;Evil and lazy slave! So you knew that I harvest where I didn&#8217;t sow and gather where I didn&#8217;t scatter?

<t /><p class="bodytext">&#8220;When an unclean spirit<n id="1" /> goes out of a person,<n id="2" /> it passes through waterless places<n id="3" /> looking for rest but<n id="4" /> not finding any. Then<n id="5" /> it says, &#8216;I will return to the home I left.&#8217;<n id="6" />

Therefore he had<n id="1" /> to be made like his brothers and sisters<n id="2" /> in every respect, so that he could become a merciful and faithful high priest in things relating to God, to make atonement<n id="3" /> for the sins of the people.
