In the afore cited place, Psalms 40:7 Sacrifice and offering, and burnt offerings, and offering for sin thou wouldst not, neither hadst pleasure therein; this is a recapitulation of what is before said; and all kind of sacrifices are mentioned, to show that they are all imperfect, and insufficient, and are abolished; and...

[See comments on Hebrews 10:7] he taketh away the first, that he may establish the second; the sense is, either that God has taken away, and abolished the law, that he might establish the Gospel; or he has caused the first covenant to vanish away, that place might be found for the second, or...

Hebrews 10:10-12

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

We are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

Hebrews 10:10

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all. Or, “once.” It can never be offered again. The presence of offering up the body and the blood of Christ in the mass is sheer profanity. It has been done once, and there is no need of a repetition. To suppose that it could be repeated, is to imply...

By the which will- The will which Christ fulfilled in life and in death: “By the which will” — Heb_10:10. We are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once.
