These terms collectively illustrate the multifaceted nature of sacrifices in the Old Testament, ranging from burnt offerings to peace offerings and grain offerings. Usage: The word θυσία is used in the New Testament to describe various types of sacrifices, including those made according to Jewish law, as well as metaphorical sacrifices in the Christian life. It appears in contexts discussing the sacrificial system, the ultimate sacrifice of Christ, and the spiritual sacrifices of believers. Context: The concept of θυσία is central to both the Old and New Testaments, reflecting the importance of sacrifice in the relationship between God and humanity. In the New Testament, θυσία is used to describe the sacrificial system of the Old Covenant, as seen in Hebrews 10:1, "The law is only a shadow of the good things to come, not the realities themselves. It can never, by the same sacrifices repeated endlessly year after year, make perfect those who draw near to worship."
