Hebrews 10:9

Hebrews 10:9

Then said he, Lo, I come to do thy will, O God. He taketh away the first, that he may establish the second.

a. ASV: Then hath he said, Lo, I am come to do thy will. He taketh away the first, that he may establish the second.

  

b. YLT: Then he said, 'Lo, I come to do, O God, Thy will;' he doth take away the first that the second he may establish;

d. Amplified Bible Classic: He then went on to say, Behold, [here] I am, coming to do Your will. Thus He does away with and annuls the first (former) order [as a means of expiating sin] so that He might inaugurate and establish the second (latter) order.

1. “Then said he, Lo, I come to do thy will, O God…”

6:40 And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.

c). 1 Peter 1:18-20 Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers;
