Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
And every priest standeth daily ministering and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins: but this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God; It was done, wholly done, and done for ever; nothing was to be added to it, and, therefore, Jesus “sat down” in the place of...

And every priest stinted daily ministering and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins: but this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God; Christ stands no longer to minister as a sacrificing priest, he is sitting down on the right hand of God. That is the posture...

But this man,.... Jesus Christ, for he is a man, though not a mere man; or this great high priest, who came to do the will of God, and whose body was offered once for all: after he had offered one sacrifice for sins; the sacrifice of himself, body and soul, and this but once: for ever sat down on the right hand of God; as having done his work...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
After he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God; from henceforth expecting till his enemies be made his footstool.

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
From henceforth expecting till his enemies be made his footstool. “Expecting.” That was the subject of this morning’s sermon.

This is the age of expectancy. We have not yet...

From henceforth expecting till his enemies be made his footstool. For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified.

For by one offering,.... The same as before; himself, body and soul; this is a reason why he is set down, and will continue so for ever, and why he expects his enemies to be made his footstool; because by one sacrifice for sin, which he has once offered, he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified; that is, who are sanctified by God the...

John Gill - Exposition - John Gill
And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more. [See comments on Hebrews 8:10]. The words are cited to a different purpose here than there; the principal thing for which they are cited here, is to observe God's promise of non-remembrance of sin; which is no other than remission of sin, and which is not consistent with legal sacrifices, in...

Now where remission of these is,.... That is, of these sins; and that there is remission of them, is evident from this promise of the covenant, just now produced; from God's gracious proclamation of it; from the shedding of Christ's blood for it; from his exaltation at the Father's right hand to give it; from the Gospel declaration of it; and from...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin. The offering for sin is in order that sin may be put away; and if it be put away, so that God himself will remember it no more, what more is wanted? What more could be desired? Wherefore, let us rest in the one great finished work of Christ, and be perfectly happy. Sin is gone,...
