"Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin." — Hebrews 10:18 (ASV)
This short verse emphatically conveys the utter finality of Christ’s offering and the sheer impossibility of anything further. Where sins have been effectively dealt with, there can be no additional offering for sin. The author sees this as established by Scripture, and this is consistent with his normal use of the OT. Since the new covenant has been established as a reality, the prophetic word allows no further sacrifice for sin.
