The description of the rites and sacrifices of the law;11. which are far inferior to the dignity and perfection of the sacrifice of Christ. But when Christ came This phrase marks a pivotal transition in the narrative of salvation history. The Greek word for "came" (παραγίνομαι, paraginomai) implies an arrival or coming forth, emphasizing the incarnation of Jesus Christ. Historically, this signifies the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies and the ushering in of a new covenant. Christ's coming is the divine intervention that changes the course of human history, offering redemption and hope. as high priest of the good things that have come He went through the greater and more perfect tabernacle that is not made by hands that is, not of this creation (1) The instrumental medium was not the blood of goats and calves (specified here as having been the sin offerings on the Day of Atonement), but his own blood; he was both Priest and Victim. (2) He entered, not yearly, but once for all; there was no need of continual repetition. And the conclusion is drawn flint the redemption he thus wrought is consequently complete and eternal. The first of these contrasts is enlarged on from ver. 13 to ver. 24; the second (denoted by ἐφάπαξ) is taken up at ver. 25. On the word "redemption" (λύτρωσις: in some other passages ἀπολύτρωσις) it is to be observed that it means, according to its etymology, release obtained by payment of a ransom (λύτρον), and thus in itself involves the doctrine of atonement according to the orthodox view. It is true that in many Scripture passages it is used (as also λυτρούσθαι and λυτρωτή`) in a more general sense to express deliverance only, but never where the redemption of mankind by Christ is spoken cf. In such cases the λύτρον is often distinctly specified, as in Matthew 20:28 and Mark 10:45, "his life;" in 1 Timothy 2:6 and Titus 2:14, "himself;" in Ephesians 1:7; Colossians 1:14; 1 Peter 1:19, "his blood;" cf. also infra, ver. 14.
