Heb. 7:23‑28• 23And they indeed are become many more priests, because by death they are hindered from continuing;

 26For such a high priest became us, holy, guileless, undefiled, separated from sinners, and become higher than the heavens,

 26since he were bound often to suffer from [the] world's foundation. But now once on consummation of the ages he hath been manifested for putting away of sin by his sacrifice.
 27And forasmuch as it is appointed to men once to die, and, after this, judgment;

 7Then I said, Lo, I am come (in the book-roll it is written of me) to do thy will, O God.
 8Above saying, Sacrifice and offering and whole burnt-offerings and sacrifices for sin thou willedst not nor hadst pleasure in (the which are offered according to the law),
 9then he hath said, Lo, I am come to do thy will. He taketh away the first that he may establish the second;
 10by which will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
 11And every priest indeed standeth daily ministering and offering often the same sacrifices, the which can never take away sins;
 12but he having offered one sacrifice for sins, continuously sat down on God's right hand, (Heb. 10:4‑12)
;
1 Peter 1:3,21• 3Blessed [be] the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, that according to his abundant mercy begot us again unto a living hope through Jesus Christ's resurrection out of [the] dead,
 21that through him believe on God that raised him out of [the] dead and gave him glory, so that your faith and hope are in God, (1 Peter 1:3,21)
• Now he goes farther, and, instead of speaking of their subjective state as a light reception of the truth, he points out that, if Christ has not been raised, as the gospel declares, the preaching of the apostles was objectively as empty (κενόν) as the faith of the saints.
