PAUL TO THE HEBREWS + +St. Paul wrote this Epistle to the Christians in Palestine, the most +part of whom being Jews before their conversion, they were called +Hebrews. He exhorts them to be thoroughly converted and confirmed in the +faith of Christ, clearly shewing them the preeminence of Christ's +priesthood above the Levitical, and also the excellence of the new law +above the old. He commends faith by the example of the ancient fathers: +and exhorts them to patience and perseverance and to remain in fraternal +charity. It appears from chap. 13 that this Epistle was written in +Italy, and probably at Rome, about twenty-nine years after our Lord's +Ascension. + + +Hebrews Chapter 1 + +God spoke of old by the prophets, but now by his Son, who is +incomparably greater than the angels. + +1:1. God, who, at sundry times and in divers manners, spoke in times +past to the fathers by the prophets, last of all, + +1:2. In these days, hath spoken to us by his Son, whom he hath appointed +heir of all things, by whom also he made the world. + +1:3. Who being the brightness of his glory and the figure of his +substance and upholding all things by the word of his power, making +purgation of sins, sitteth on the right hand of the majesty on high: + +The figure... that is, the express image, and most perfect resemblance. +Making purgation... That is, having purged away our sins by his passion. + +1:4. Being made so much better than the angels as he hath inherited a +more excellent name than they. + +1:5. For to which of the angels hath he said at any time: Thou art my +Son, to-day have I begotten thee? And again: I will be to him a Father, +and he shall be to me a Son? + +1:6. And again, when he bringeth in the first begotten into the world, +he saith: And let all the angels of God adore him. + +1:7. And to the angels indeed he saith: He that maketh his angels +spirits and his ministers a flame of fire. + +1:8. But to the Son: Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre +of justice is the sceptre of thy kingdom. + +1:9. Thou hast loved justice and hated iniquity: therefore God, thy God, +hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows. + +1:10. And: Thou in the beginning, O Lord, didst found the earth: and the +works of thy hands are the heavens. + +1:11. They shall perish: but thou shalt continue: and they shall all +grow old as a garment. + +1:12. And as a vesture shalt thou change them, and they shalt be +changed. But thou art the selfsame: and thy years shall not fail. + +1:13. But to which of the angels said he at any time: Sit on my right +hand, until I make thy enemies thy footstool? + +1:14. Are they not all ministering spirits, sent to minister for them +who shall receive the inheritance of salvation? + +Hebrews Chapter 2 + +The transgression of the precepts of the Son of God is far more +condemnable than of those of the Old Testament given by angels. + +2:1. Therefore ought we more diligently to observe the things which we +have heard lest perhaps we should let them slip. + +2:2. For if the word spoken by angels became steadfast and every +transgression and disobedience received a just recompense of reward: + +2:3. How shall we escape if we neglect so great salvation? Which, having +begun to be declared by the Lord, was confirmed unto us by them that +heard him. + +2:4. God also bearing them witness by signs and wonders and divers +miracles and distributions of the Holy Ghost, according to his own will. + +2:5. For God hath not subjected unto angels the world to come, whereof +we speak. + +2:6. But one in a certain place hath testified, saying: What is man, +that thou art mindful of him? Or the son of man, that thou visitest him? + +2:7. Thou hast made him a little lower than the angels: thou hast +crowned him with glory and honour and hast set him over the works of thy +hands. + +2:8. Thou hast subjected all things under his feet. For in that he hath +subjected all things to him he left nothing not subject to him. But now +we see not as yet all things subject to him. + +2:9. But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels, for +the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour: that, through the +grace of God he might taste death for all. + +2:10. For it became him for whom are all things and by whom are all +things, who had brought many children into glory, to perfect the author +of their salvation, by his passion. + +Perfect by his passion... By suffering, Christ was to enter into his +glory, Luke 24.26, which the apostle here calls being made perfect. + +2:11. For both he that sanctifieth and they who are sanctified are all +of one. For which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren, saying: + +2:12. I will declare thy name to my brethren: in the midst of the church +will I praise thee. + +2:13. And again: I will put my trust in him. And again: Behold I and my +children, whom God hath given me. + +2:14. Therefore because the children are partakers of flesh and blood, +he also himself in like manner hath been partaker of the same: that, +through death, he might destroy him who had the empire of death, that is +to say, the devil: + +2:15. And might deliver them, who through the fear of death were all +their lifetime subject to servitude. + +2:16. For nowhere doth he take hold of the angels: but of the seed of +Abraham he taketh hold. + +No where doth he, etc... That is, he never took upon him the nature of +angels, but that of the seed of Abraham. + +2:17. Wherefore, it behoved him in all things to be made like unto his +brethren, that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest +before God, that he might be a propitiation for the sins of the people. + +2:18. For in that wherein he himself hath suffered and been tempted he +is able to succour them also that are tempted. + +Hebrews Chapter 3 + +Christ is more excellent than Moses. Wherefore we must adhere to him by +faith and obedience. + +3:1. Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly vocation +consider the apostle and high priest of our confession, Jesus: + +3:2. Who is faithful to him that made him, as was also Moses in all his +house. + +3:3. For this man was counted worthy of greater glory than Moses, by so +much as he that hath built the house hath greater honour than the house. + +3:4. For every house is built by some man: but he that created all +things is God. + +3:5. And Moses indeed was faithful in all his house as a servant, for a +testimony of those things which were to be said: + +3:6. But Christ, as the Son in his own house: which house are we, if we +hold fast the confidence and glory of hope unto the end. + +3:7. Wherefore, as the Holy Ghost saith: To-day if you shall hear his +voice, + +3:8. Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of +temptation in the desert, + +3:9. Where your fathers tempted me, proved and saw my works, + +3:10. Forty years: for which cause I was offended with this generation, +and I said: They always err in heart. And they have not known my ways. + +3:11. As I have sworn in my wrath: If they shall enter into my rest. + +3:12. Take heed, brethren, lest perhaps there be in any of you an evil +heart of unbelief, to depart from the living God. + +3:13. But exhort one another every day, whilst it is called to day, that +none of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. + +3:14. For we are made partakers of Christ: yet so, if we hold the +beginning of his substance firm unto the end. + +3:15. While it is said: To day, if you shall hear his voice, harden not +your hearts, as in that provocation. + +3:16. For some who heard did provoke: but not all that came out of Egypt +by Moses. + +3:17. And with whom was he offended forty years? Was it not with them +that sinned, whose carcasses were overthrown in the desert? + +3:18. And to whom did he swear, that they should not enter into his +rest: but to them that were incredulous? + +3:19. And we see that they could not enter in, because of unbelief. + +Hebrews Chapter 4 + +The Christian's rest. We are to enter into it through Jesus Christ. + +4:1. Let us fear therefore lest, the promise being left of entering into +his rest, any of you should be thought to be wanting. + +4:2. For unto us also it hath been declared in like manner as unto them. +But the word of hearing did not profit them, not being mixed with faith +of those things they heard. + +4:3. For we, who have believed, shall enter into rest; as he said: As I +have sworn in my wrath: If they shall enter into my rest; and this +indeed when the works from the foundation of the world were finished. + +4:4. For in a certain place he spoke of the seventh day thus: And God +rested the seventh day from all his works. + +4:5. And in this place again: If they shall enter into my rest. + +4:6. Seeing then it remaineth that some are to enter into it, and they +to whom it was first preached did not enter because of unbelief: + +4:7. Again he limiteth a certain day, saying in David; To day, after so +long a time as it is above said: To day if you shall hear his voice, +harden not your hearts. + +4:8. For if Jesus had given them rest he would never have afterwards +spoken of another day. + +Jesus... Josue, who in Greek is called Jesus. + +4:9. There remaineth therefore a day of rest for the people of God. + +4:10. For he that is entered into his rest, the same also hath rested +from his works, as God did from his. + +4:11. Let us hasten therefore to enter into that rest: lest any man fall +into the same example of unbelief. + +4:12. For the word of God is living and effectual and more piercing than +any two edged sword; and reaching unto the division of the soul and the +spirit, of the joints also and the marrow: and is a discerner of the +thoughts and intents of the heart. + +4:13. Neither is there any creature invisible in his sight: but all +things are naked and open to his eyes, to whom our speech is. + +4:14. Having therefore a great high priest that hath passed into the +heavens, Jesus the Son of God: let us hold fast our confession. + +4:15. For we have not a high priest who cannot have compassion on our +infirmities: but one tempted in all things like as we are, without sin. + +4:16. Let us go therefore with confidence to the throne of grace: that +we may obtain mercy and find grace in seasonable aid. + +Hebrews Chapter 5 + +The office of a high priest. Christ is our high priest. + +5:1. For every high priest taken from among men is ordained for men in +the things that appertain to God, that he may offer up gifts and +sacrifices for sins: + +5:2. Who can have compassion on them that are ignorant and that err: +because he himself also is compassed with infirmity. + +5:3. And therefore he ought, as for the people, so also for himself, to +offer for sins. + +5:4. Neither doth any man take the honour to himself, but he that is +called by God, as Aaron was. + +5:5. So Christ also did not glorify himself, that he might be made a +high priest: but he that said unto him: Thou art my Son: this day have I +begotten thee. + +5:6. As he saith also in another place: Thou art a priest for ever, +according to the order of Melchisedech. + +5:7. Who in the days of his flesh, with a strong cry and tears, offering +up prayers and supplications to him that was able to save him from +death, was heard for his reverence. + +5:8. And whereas indeed he was the Son of God, he learned obedience by +the things which he suffered. + +5:9. And being consummated, he became, to all that obey him, the cause +of eternal salvation: + +5:10. Called by God a high priest, according to the order of +Melchisedech. + +5:11. Of whom we have much to say and hard to be intelligibly uttered: +because you are become weak to hear. + +5:12. For whereas for the time you ought to be masters, you have need to +be taught again what are the first elements of the words of God: and you +are become such as have need of milk and not of strong meat. + +5:13. For every one that is a partaker of milk is unskilful in the word +of justice: for he is a little child. + +5:14. But strong meat is for the perfect: for them who by custom have +their senses exercised to the discerning of good and evil. + +Hebrews Chapter 6 + +He warns them of the danger of falling by apostasy and exhorts them to +patience and perseverance. + +6:1. Wherefore, leaving the word of the beginning of Christ, let us go +on to things more perfect: not laying again the foundation of penance +from dead works and of faith towards God, + +The word of the beginning... The first rudiments of the Christian +doctrine. + +6:2. Of the doctrine of baptisms and imposition of hands, and of the +resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment. + +6:3. And this will we do, if God permit. + +6:4. For it is impossible for those who were once illuminated, have +tasted also the heavenly gift and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost, + +It is impossible, etc... The meaning is, that it is impossible for such +as have fallen after baptism, to be again baptized; and very hard for +such as have apostatized from the faith, after having received many +graces, to return again to the happy state from which they fell. + +6:5. Have moreover tasted the good word of God and the powers of the +world to come, + +6:6. And are fallen away: to be renewed again to penance, crucifying +again to themselves the Son of God and making him a mockery. + +6:7. For the earth, that drinketh in the rain which cometh often upon it +and bringeth forth herbs meet for them by whom it is tilled, receiveth +blessing from God. + +6:8. But that which bringeth forth thorns and briers is reprobate and +very near unto a curse: whose end is to be burnt. + +6:9. But, my dearly beloved, we trust better things of you, and nearer +to salvation; though we speak thus. + +6:10. For God is not unjust, that he should forget your work and the +love which you have shewn in his name, you who have ministered and do +minister to the saints. + +6:11. And we desire that every one of you shew forth the same +carefulness to the accomplishing of hope unto the end: + +6:12. That you become not slothful, but followers of them who through +faith and patience shall inherit the promises. + +6:13. For God making promises to Abraham, because he had no one greater +by whom he might swear, swore by himself, + +6:14. Saying: Unless blessing I shall bless thee and multiplying I shall +multiply thee. + +6:15. And so patiently enduring he obtained the promise. + +6:16. For men swear by one greater than themselves: and an oath for +confirmation is the end of all their controversy. + +6:17. Wherein God, meaning more abundantly to shew to the heirs of the +promise the immutability of his counsel, interposed an oath: + +6:18. That by two immutable things in which it is impossible for God to +lie, we may have the strongest comfort, we who have fled for refuge to +hold fast the hope set before us. + +6:19. Which we have as an anchor of the soul, sure and firm, and which +entereth in even within the veil: + +6:20. Where the forerunner Jesus is entered for us, made a high priest +for ever according to the order of Melchisedech. + +Hebrews Chapter 7 + +The priesthood of Christ according to the order of Melchisedech excels +the Levitical priesthood and puts an end both to that and to the law. + +7:1. For this Melchisedech was king of Salem, priest of the most high +God, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings and +blessed him: + +7:2. To whom also Abraham divided the tithes of all: who first indeed by +interpretation is king of justice: and then also king of Salem, that is, +king of peace: + +7:3. Without father, without mother, without genealogy, having neither +beginning of days nor end of life, but likened unto the Son of God, +continueth a priest for ever. + +Without father, etc... Not that he had no father, etc., but that neither +his father, nor his pedigree, nor his birth, nor his death, are set down +in scripture. + +7:4. Now consider how great this man is, to whom also Abraham the +patriarch gave tithes out of the principal things. + +7:5. And indeed they that are of the sons of Levi, who receive the +priesthood, have a commandment to take tithes of the people according to +the law, that is to say, of their brethren: though they themselves also +came out of the loins of Abraham. + +7:6. But he, whose pedigree is not numbered among them, received tithes +of Abraham and blessed him that had the promises. + +7:7. And without all contradiction, that which is less is blessed by the +better. + +7:8. And here indeed, men that die receive tithes: but there, he hath +witness that he liveth. + +7:9. And (as it may be said) even Levi who received tithes paid tithes +in Abraham: + +7:10. For he was yet in the loins of his father when Melchisedech met +him. + +7:11. If then perfection was by the Levitical priesthood (for under it +the people received the law), what further need was there that another +priest should rise according to the order of Melchisedech: and not be +called according to the order of Aaron? + +7:12. For the priesthood being translated, it is necessary that a +translation also be made of the law, + +7:13. For he of whom these things are spoken is of another tribe, of +which no one attended on the altar. + +7:14. For it is evident that our Lord sprung out of Juda: in which tribe +Moses spoke nothing concerning priests. + +7:15. And it is yet far more evident: if according to the similitude of +Melchisedech there ariseth another priest, + +7:16. Who is made, not according to the law of a law of a carnal +commandment, but according to the power of an indissoluble life. + +7:17. For he testifieth: Thou art a priest for ever according to the +order of Melchisedech. + +7:18. There is indeed a setting aside of the former commandment, because +of the weakness and unprofitableness thereof: + +7:19. For the law brought nothing to perfection: but a bringing in of a +better hope, by which we draw nigh to God. + +7:20. And inasmuch as it is not without an oath (for the others indeed +were made priests without an oath: + +7:21. But this with an oath, by him that said unto him: The Lord hath +sworn and he will not repent: Thou art a priest for ever). + +7:22. By so much is Jesus made a surety of a better testament. + +7:23. And the others indeed were made many priests, because by reason of +death they were not suffered to continue: + +Many priests, etc... The apostle notes this difference between the high +priests of the law, and our high priest Jesus Christ; that they being +removed by death, made way for their successors; whereas our Lord Jesus +is a priest for ever, and hath no successor; but liveth and concurreth +for ever with his ministers, the priests of the new testament, in all +their functions. Also, that no one priest of the law, nor all of them +together, could offer that absolute sacrifice of everlasting redemption, +which our one high priest Jesus Christ has offered once, and for ever. + +7:24. But this, for that he continueth for ever, hath an everlasting +priesthood: + +7:25. Whereby he is able also to save for ever them that come to God by +him; always living to make intercession for us. + +Make intercession... Christ, as man, continually maketh intercession for +us, by representing his passion to his Father. + +7:26. For it was fitting that we should have such a high priest, holy, +innocent, undefiled, separated from sinners, and made higher than the +heavens: + +7:27. Who needeth not daily (as the other priests) to offer sacrifices, +first for his own sins, and then for the people's: for this he did once, +in offering himself. + +7:28. For the law maketh men priests, who have infirmity: but the word +of the oath (which was since the law) the Son who is perfected for +evermore. + +Hebrews Chapter 8 + +More of the excellence of the priesthood of Christ and of the New +Testament. + +8:1. Now of the things which we have spoken, this is the sum: We have +such an high priest who is set on the right hand of the throne of +majesty in the heavens, + +8:2. A minister of the holies and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord +hath pitched, and not man. + +The holies... That is, the sanctuary. + +8:3. For every high priest is appointed to offer gifts and sacrifices: +wherefore it is necessary that he also should have some thing to offer. + +8:4. If then he were on earth, he would not be a priest: seeing that +there would be others to offer gifts according to the law. + +If then he were on earth, etc... That is, if he were not of a higher +condition than the Levitical order of earthly priests, and had not +another kind of sacrifice to offer, he should be excluded by them from +the priesthood, and its functions, which by the law were appropriated to +their tribe. + +8:5. Who serve unto the example and shadow of heavenly things. As it was +answered to Moses, when he was to finish the tabernacle: See (saith he) +that thou make all things according to the pattern which was shewn thee +on the mount. + +Who serve unto, etc... The priesthood of the law and its functions were +a kind of an example and shadow of what is done by Christ in his church +militant and triumphant, of which the tabernacle was a pattern. + +8:6. But now he hath obtained a better ministry, by how much also he is +a mediator of a better testament which is established on better +promises. + +8:7. For if that former had been faultless, there should not indeed a +place have been sought for a second. + +8:8. For, finding fault with them, he saith: Behold the days shall come, +saith the Lord: and I will perfect, unto the house of Israel and unto +the house of Juda, a new testament: + +8:9. Not according to the testament which I made to their fathers, on +the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of +Egypt: because they continued not in my testament: and I regarded them +not, saith the Lord. + +8:10. For this is the testament which I will make to the house of Israel +after those days, saith the Lord: I will give my laws into their mind: +and in their heart will I write them. And I will be their God: and they +shall be my people. + +8:11. And they shall not teach every man his neighbour and every man his +brother, saying: Know the Lord. For all shall know me, from the least to +the greatest of them. + +They shall not teach, etc... So great shall be light and grace of the +new testament, that it shall not be necessary to inculcate to the +faithful the belief and knowledge of the true God, for they shall all +know him. + +8:12. Because I will be merciful to their iniquities: and their sins I +will remember no more. + +8:13. Now in saying a new, he hath made the former old. And that which +decayeth and groweth old is near its end. + +A new... Supply `covenant'. + +Hebrews Chapter 9 + +The sacrifices of the law were far inferior to that of Christ. + +9:1. The former indeed had also justifications of divine service and a +sanctuary. + +9:2. For there was a tabernacle made the first, wherein were the +candlesticks and the table and the setting forth of loaves, which is +called the Holy. + +9:3. And after the second veil, the tabernacle which is called the Holy +of Holies: + +9:4. Having a golden censer and the ark of the testament covered about +on every part with gold, in which was a golden pot that had manna and +the rod of Aaron that had blossomed and the tables of the testament. + +9:5. And over it were the cherubims of glory overshadowing the +propitiatory: of which it is not needful to speak now particularly. + +9:6. Now these things being thus ordered, into the first tabernacle, the +priests indeed always entered, accomplishing the offices of sacrifices. + +9:7. But into the second, the high priest alone, once a year: not +without blood, which he offereth for his own and the people's ignorance: + +9:8. The Holy Ghost signifying this: That the way into the Holies was +not yet made manifest, whilst the former tabernacle was yet standing. + +9:9. Which is a parable of the time present: according to which gifts +and sacrifices are offered, which cannot, as to the conscience, make him +perfect that serveth, only in meats and in drinks, + +9:10. And divers washings and justices of the flesh laid on them until +the time of correction. + +Of correction... Viz., when Christ should correct and settle all things. + +9:11. But Christ, being come an high Priest of the good things to come, +by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hand, that is, +not of this creation: + +9:12. Neither by the blood of goats or of calves, but by his own blood, +entered once into the Holies, having obtained eternal redemption. + +Eternal redemption... By that one sacrifice of his blood, once offered +on the cross, Christ our Lord paid and exhibited, once for all, the +general price and ransom of all mankind: which no other priest could do. + +9:13. For if the blood of goats and of oxen, and the ashes of an heifer, +being sprinkled, sanctify such as are defiled, to the cleansing of the +flesh: + +9:14. How much more shall the blood of Christ, who by the Holy Ghost +offered himself unspotted unto God, cleanse our conscience from dead +works, to serve the living God? + +9:15. And therefore he is the mediator of the new testament: that by +means of his death for the redemption of those transgressions which were +under the former testament, they that are called may receive the promise +of eternal inheritance. + +9:16. For where there is a testament the death of the testator must of +necessity come in. + +9:17. For a testament is of force after men are dead: otherwise it is as +yet of no strength, whilst the testator liveth. + +9:18. Whereupon neither was the first indeed dedicated without blood. + +9:19. For when every commandment of the law had been read by Moses to +all the people, he took the blood of calves and goats, with water, and +scarlet wool and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book itself and all the +people. + +9:20. Saying: This is the blood of the testament which God hath enjoined +unto you. + +9:21. The tabernacle also and all the vessels of the ministry, in like +manner, he sprinkled with blood. + +9:22. And almost all things, according to the law, are cleansed with +blood: and without shedding of blood there is no remission. + +9:23. It is necessary therefore that the patterns of heavenly things +should be cleansed with these: but the heavenly things themselves with +better sacrifices than these. + +9:24. For Jesus is not entered into the Holies made with hands, the +patterns of the true: but into Heaven itself, that he may appear now in +the presence of God for us. + +9:25. Nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest +entereth into the Holies every year with the blood of others: + +Offer himself often... Christ shall never more offer himself in +sacrifice, in that violent, painful, and bloody manner, nor can there be +any occasion for it: since by that one sacrifice upon the cross, he has +furnished the full ransom, redemption, and remedy for all the sins of +the world. But this hinders not that he may offer himself daily in the +sacred mysteries in an unbloody manner, for the daily application of +that one sacrifice of redemption to our souls. + +9:26. For then he ought to have suffered often from the beginning of the +world. But now once, at the end of ages, he hath appeared for the +destruction of sin by the sacrifice of himself. + +9:27. And as it is appointed unto men once to die, and after this the +judgment: + +9:28. So also Christ was offered once to exhaust the sins of many. The +second time he shall appear without sin to them that expect him unto +salvation. + +To exhaust... That is, to empty, or draw out to the very bottom, by a +plentiful and perfect redemption. + +Hebrews Chapter 10 + +Because of the insufficiency of the sacrifices of the law, Christ our +high priest shed his own blood for us, offering up once for all the +sacrifice of our redemption. He exhorts them to perseverance. + +10:1. For the law, having a shadow of the good things to come, not the +very image of the things, by the selfsame sacrifices which they offer +continually every year, can never make the comers thereunto perfect. + +10:2. For then they would have ceased to be offered: because the +worshippers once cleansed should have no conscience of sin any longer. + +They would have ceased... If they had been of themselves perfect to all +the intents of redemption and remission, as Christ's death is there +would have been no occasion of so often repeating them: as there is no +occasion for Christ's dying any more for our sins. + +10:3. But in them there is made a commemoration of sins every year: + +10:4. For it is impossible that with the blood of oxen and goats sin +should be taken away. + +10:5. Wherefore, when he cometh into the world he saith: Sacrifice and +oblation thou wouldest not: but a body thou hast fitted to me. + +10:6. Holocausts for sin did not please thee. + +10:7. Then said I: Behold I come: in the head of the book it is written +of me: that I should do thy will, O God. + +10:8. In saying before, Sacrifices, and oblations, and holocausts for +sin thou wouldest not, neither are they pleasing to thee, which are +offered according to the law. + +10:9. Then said I: Behold, I come to do thy will, O God: He taketh away +the first, that he may establish that which followeth. + +10:10. In the which will, we are sanctified by the oblation of the body +of Jesus Christ once. + +10:11. And every priest indeed standeth daily ministering and often +offering the same sacrifices which can never take away sins. + +10:12. But this man, offering one sacrifice for sins, for ever sitteth +on the right hand of God, + +10:13. From henceforth expecting until his enemies be made his +footstool. + +10:14. For by one oblation he hath perfected for ever them that are +sanctified. + +10:15. And the Holy Ghost also doth testify this to us. For after that +he said: + +10:16. And this is the testament which I will make unto them after those +days, saith the Lord. I will give my laws in their hearts and on their +minds will I write them: + +10:17. And their sins and iniquities I will remember no more. + +10:18. Now, where there is a remission of these, there is no more an +oblation for sin. + +There is no more an oblation for sin... Where there is a full remission +of sins, as in baptism, there is no more occasion for a sin offering to +be made for such sins already remitted; and as for sins committed +afterwards, they can only be remitted in virtue of the one oblation of +Christ's death. + +10:19. Having therefore, brethren, a confidence in the entering into the +holies by the blood of Christ: + +10:20. A new and living way which he hath dedicated for us through the +veil, that is to say, his flesh: + +10:21. And a high priest over the house of God: + +10:22. Let us draw near with a true heart, in fulness of faith, having +our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with +clean water. + +10:23. Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering (for +he is faithful that hath promised): + +10:24. And let us consider one another, to provoke unto charity and to +good works: + +10:25. Not forsaking our assembly, as some are accustomed: but +comforting one another, and so much the more as you see the day +approaching. + +10:26. For if we sin wilfully after having the knowledge of the truth, +there is now left no sacrifice for sins: + +If we sin wilfully... He speaks of the sin of wilful apostasy from the +known truth; after which, as we can not be baptized again, we can not +expect to have that abundant remission of sins, which Christ purchased +by his death, applied to our souls in that ample manner as it is in +baptism: but we have rather all manner of reason to look for a dreadful +judgment; the more because apostates from the known truth, seldom or +never have the grace to return to it. + +10:27. But a certain dreadful expectation of judgment, and the rage of a +fire which shall consume the adversaries. + +10:28. A man making void the law of Moses dieth without any mercy under +two or three witnesses: + +10:29. How much more, do you think he deserveth worse punishments, who +hath trodden under foot the Son of God and hath esteemed the blood of +the testament unclean, by which he was sanctified, and hath offered an +affront to the Spirit of grace? + +10:30. For we know him that hath said: Vengeance belongeth to me, and I +will repay. And again: The Lord shall judge his people. + +10:31. It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. + +10:32. But call to mind the former days, wherein, being illuminated, you +endured a great fight of afflictions. + +10:33. And on the one hand indeed, by reproaches and tribulations, were +made a gazingstock; and on the other, became companions of them that +were used in such sort. + +10:34. For you both had compassion on them that were in bands and took +with joy the being stripped of your own goods, knowing that you have a +better and a lasting substance. + +10:35. Do not therefore lose your confidence which hath a great reward. + +10:36. For patience is necessary for you: that, doing the will of God, +you may receive the promise. + +10:37. For yet a little and a very little while, and he that is to come +will come and will not delay. + +10:38. But my just man liveth by faith: but if he withdraw himself, he +shall not please my soul. + +10:39. But we are not the children of withdrawing unto perdition, but of +faith to the saving of the soul. + +Hebrews Chapter 11 + +What faith is. Its wonderful fruits and efficacy demonstrated in the +fathers. + +11:1. Now, faith is the substance of things to be hoped for, the +evidence of things that appear not. + +11:2. For by this the ancients obtained a testimony. + +11:3. By faith we understand that the world was framed by the word of +God: that from invisible things visible things might be made. + +11:4. By faith Abel offered to God a sacrifice exceeding that of Cain, +by which he obtained a testimony that he was just, God giving testimony +to his gifts. And by it he being dead yet speaketh. + +11:5. By faith Henoch was translated that he should not see death: and +he was not found because God had translated him. For before his +translation he had testimony that he pleased God. + +11:6. But without faith it is impossible to please God. For he that +cometh to God must believe that he is: and is a rewarder to them that +seek him. + +11:7. By faith Noe, having received an answer concerning those things +which as yet were not seen, moved with fear, framed the ark for the +saving of his house: by the which he condemned the world and was +instituted heir of the justice which is by faith. + +11:8. By faith he that is called Abraham obeyed to go out into a place +which he was to receive for an inheritance. And he went out, not knowing +whither he went. + +He that is called Abraham... or, Abraham being called. + +11:9. By faith he abode in the land of promise, as in a strange country, +dwelling in cottages, with Isaac and Jacob, the co-heirs of the same +promise. + +11:10. For he looked for a city that hath foundations: whose builder and +maker is God. + +11:11. By faith also Sara herself, being barren, received strength to +conceive seed, even past the time of age: because she believed that he +was faithful who had promised, + +11:12. For which cause there sprung even from one (and him as good as +dead) as the stars of heaven in multitude and as the sand which is by +the sea shore innumerable. + +11:13. All these died according to faith, not having received the +promises but beholding them afar off and saluting them and confessing +that they are pilgrims and strangers on the earth. + +11:14. For they that say these things do signify that they seek a +country. + +11:15. And truly, if they had been mindful of that from whence they came +out, they had doubtless, time to return. + +11:16. But now they desire a better, that is to say, a heavenly country. +Therefore, God is not ashamed to be called their God: for he hath +prepared for them a city. + +11:17. By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered Isaac: and he that +had received the promises offered up his only begotten son, + +11:18. (To whom it was said: In Isaac shalt thy seed be called:) + +11:19. Accounting that God is able to raise up even from the dead. +Whereupon also he received him for a parable. + +For a parable... That is, as a figure of Christ, slain and coming to +life again. + +11:20. By faith also of things to come Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau. + +11:21. By faith Jacob, dying, blessed each of the sons of Joseph and +adored the top of his rod. + +Adored the top of his rod... The apostle here follows the ancient Greek +Bible of the seventy interpreters, (which translates in this manner, +Gen. 47. 31.,) and alleges this fact of Jacob, in paying a relative +honour and veneration to the top of the rod or sceptre of Joseph, as to +a figure of Christ's sceptre and kingdom, as an instance and argument of +his faith. But some translators, who are no friends to this relative +honour, have corrupted the text, by translating it, he worshipped, +leaning upon the top of his staff; as if this circumstance of leaning +upon his staff were any argument of Jacob's faith, or worthy the being +thus particularly taken notice of by the Holy Ghost. + +11:22. By faith Joseph, when he was dying, made mention of the going out +of the children of Israel and gave commandment concerning his bones. + +11:23. By faith Moses, when he was born, was hid three months by his +parents: because they saw he was a comely babe, and they feared not the +king's edict. + +11:24. By faith Moses, when he was grown up, denied himself to be the +son of Pharao's daughter: + +11:25. Rather choosing to be afflicted with the people of God than to +have the pleasure of sin for a time: + +11:26. Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasure +of the Egyptians. For he looked unto the reward. + +11:27. By faith he left Egypt, not fearing the fierceness of the king: +for he endured, as seeing him that is invisible. + +11:28. By faith he celebrated the pasch and the shedding of the blood: +that he who destroyed the firstborn might not touch them. + +11:29. By faith they passed through the Red Sea, as by dry land: which +the Egyptians attempting, were swallowed up. + +11:30. By faith the walls of Jericho fell down, by the going round them +seven days. + +11:31. By faith Rahab the harlot perished not with the unbelievers, +receiving the spies with peace. + +11:32. And what shall I yet say? For the time would fail me to tell of +Gedeon, Barac, Samson, Jephthe, David, Samuel, and the prophets: + +11:33. Who by faith conquered kingdoms, wrought justice, obtained +promises, stopped the mouths of lions, + +11:34. Quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, +recovered strength from weakness, became valiant in battle, put to +flight the armies of foreigners. + +11:35. Women received their dead raised to life again. But others were +racked, not accepting deliverance, that they might find a better +resurrection. + +11:36. And others had trial of mockeries and stripes: moreover also of +bands and prisons. + +11:37. They were stoned, they were cut asunder, they were tempted, they +were put to death by the sword, they wandered about in sheepskins, in +goatskins, being in want, distressed, afflicted: + +11:38. Of whom the world was not worthy: wandering in deserts, in +mountains and in dens and in caves of the earth. + +11:39. And all these, being approved by the testimony of faith, received +not the promise: + +11:40. God providing some better thing for us, that they should not be +perfected without us. + +Hebrews Chapter 12 + +Exhortation to constancy under their crosses. The danger of abusing the +graces of the New Testament. + +12:1. And therefore we also having so great a cloud of witnesses over +our head, laying aside every weight and sin which surrounds us, let us +run by patience to the fight proposed to us: + +12:2. Looking on Jesus, the author and finisher of faith, who, having +joy set before him, endured the cross, despising the shame, and now +sitteth on the right hand of the throne of God. + +12:3. For think diligently upon him that endured such opposition from +sinners against himself that you be not wearied, fainting in your minds. + +12:4. For you have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin. + +12:5. And you have forgotten the consolation which speaketh to you, as +unto children, saying: My son, neglect not the discipline of the Lord: +neither be thou wearied whilst thou art rebuked by him. + +12:6. For whom the Lord loveth he chastiseth: and he scourgeth every son +whom he receiveth. + +12:7. Persevere under discipline. God dealeth with you as with his sons. +For what son is there whom the father doth not correct? + +12:8. But if you be without chastisement, whereof all are made +partakers, then are you bastards and not sons. + +12:9. Moreover, we have had fathers of our flesh for instructors, and we +reverenced them. Shall we not much more obey the Father of spirits and +live? + +12:10. And they indeed for a few days, according to their own pleasure, +instructed us: but he, for our profit, that we might receive his +sanctification. + +12:11. Now all chastisement for the present indeed seemeth not to bring +with it joy, but sorrow: but afterwards it will yield to them that are +exercised by it the most peaceable fruit of justice. + +12:12. Wherefore, lift up the hands which hang down and the feeble +knees: + +12:13. And make straight steps with your feet: that no one, halting, may +go out of the way; but rather be healed. + +12:14. Follow peace with all men and holiness: without which no man +shall see God. + +12:15. Looking diligently, lest any man be wanting to the grace of God: +lest any root of bitterness springing up do hinder and by it many be +defiled: + +12:16. Lest there be any fornicator or profane person, as Esau who for +one mess sold his first birthright. + +12:17. For know ye that afterwards, when he desired to inherit the +benediction, he was rejected. For he found no place of repentance, +although with tears he had sought it. + +He found, etc... That is, he found no way to bring his father to repent, +or change his mind, with relation to his having given the blessing to +his younger brother Jacob. + +12:18. For you are not come to a mountain that might be touched and a +burning fire and a whirlwind and darkness and storm, + +12:19. And the sound of a trumpet and the voice of words, which they +that had excused themselves, that the word might not be spoken to them. + +12:20. For they did not endure that which was said: and if so much as a +beast shall touch the mount, it shall be stoned. + +12:21. And so terrible was that which was seen, Moses said: I am +frighted, and tremble. + +12:22. But you are come to mount Sion and to the city of the living God, +the heavenly Jerusalem, and to the company of many thousands of angels, + +12:23. And to the church of the firstborn who are written in the +heavens, and to God the judge of all, and to the spirits of the just +made perfect, + +12:24. And to Jesus the mediator of the new testament, and to the +sprinkling of blood which speaketh better than that of Abel. + +12:25. See that you refuse him not that speaketh. For if they escaped +not who refused him that spoke upon earth, much more shall not we that +turn away from him that speaketh to us from heaven. + +12:26. Whose voice then moved the earth; but now he promiseth, saying: +Yet once more: and I will move, not only the earth, but heaven also. + +12:27. And in that he saith: Yet once more, he signifieth the +translation of the moveable things as made, that those things may remain +which are immoveable. + +12:28. Therefore, receiving an immoveable kingdom, we have grace: +whereby let us serve, pleasing God, with fear and reverence. + +12:29. For our God is a consuming fire. + +Hebrews Chapter 13 + +Divers admonitions and exhortations. + +13:1. Let the charity of the brotherhood abide in you. + +13:2. And hospitality do not forget: for by this some, being not aware +of it, have entertained angels. + +13:3. Remember them that are in bands, as if you were bound with them: +and them that labour, as being yourselves also in the body. + +13:4. Marriage honourable in all, and the bed undefiled. For fornicators +and adulterers God will judge. + +Or, Let marriage be honourable in all... That is, in all things +belonging to the marriage state. This is a warning to married people, +not to abuse the sanctity of their state, by any liberties or +irregularities contrary thereunto. Now it does not follow from this text +that all persons are obliged to marry, even if the word omnibus were +rendered, in all persons, instead of in all things: for if it was a +precept, St. Paul himself would have transgressed it, as he never +married. Moreover, those who have already made a vow to God to lead a +single life, should they attempt to marry, they would incur their own +damnation. 1 Tim. 5. 12. + +13:5. Let your manners be without covetousness, contented with such +things as you have. For he hath said: I will not leave thee: neither +will I forsake thee. + +13:6. So that we may confidently say: The Lord is my helper: I will not +fear what man shall do to me. + +13:7. Remember your prelates who have spoken the word of God to you: +whose faith follow, considering the end of their conversation, + +13:8. Jesus Christ, yesterday, and today: and the same for ever. + +13:9. Be not led away with various and strange doctrines. For it is best +that the heart be established with grace, not with meats: which have not +profited those that walk in them. + +13:10. We have an altar whereof they have no power to eat who serve the +tabernacle. + +13:11. For the bodies of those beasts whose blood is brought into the +holies by the high priest for sin are burned without the camp. + +13:12. Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people by his +own blood, suffered without the gate. + +13:13. Let us go forth therefore to him without the camp, bearing his +reproach. + +Let us go forth therefore to him without the camp, bearing his +reproach... That is, bearing his cross. It is an exhortation to them to +be willing to suffer with Christ, reproaches, persecutions, and even +death, if they desire to partake of the benefit of his suffering for +man's redemption. + +13:14. For, we have not here a lasting city: but we seek one that is to +come. + +13:15. By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise always to +God, that is to say, the fruit of lips confessing to his name. + +13:16. And do not forget to do good and to impart: for by such +sacrifices God's favour is obtained. + +13:17. Obey your prelates and be subject to them. For they watch as +being to render an account of your souls: that they may do this with joy +and not with grief. For this is not expedient for you. + +13:18. Pray for us. For we trust we have a good conscience, being +willing to behave ourselves well in all things. + +13:19. And I beseech you the more to do this, that I may be restored to +you the sooner. + +13:20. And may the God of peace, who brought again from the dead the +great pastor of the sheep, our Lord Jesus Christ, in the blood of the +everlasting testament, + +13:21. Fit you in all goodness, that you may do his will; doing in you +that which is well pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom +is glory for ever and ever. Amen. + +13:22. And I beseech you, brethren, that you suffer this word of +consolation. For I have written to you in a few words. + +13:23. Know ye that our brother Timothy is set at liberty: with whom (if +he come shortly) I will see you. + +13:24. Salute all your prelates and all the saints. The brethren from +Italy salute you. + +13:25. Grace be with you all. Amen. + + + + + +*** END OF THE PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK, THE BIBLE, DOUAY-RHEIMS, BOOK 65 *** + +*********** This file should be named 8365.txt or 8365.zip *********** + +Produced by David Widger + +Project Gutenberg eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the US +unless a copyright notice is included.
