“ If the blood of goats and of bulls and the ashes of a heifer sprinkled on those who have been defiled sanctifies to the extent of cleanness of the flesh, ” Paul wrote, “how much more will the blood of the Christ, who through an everlasting spirit offered himself without blemish to God, cleanse our consciences from dead works that we may render sacred service to the living God? ”
Paulus kirjutas: „Kui sikkude ja härgade veri ja lehma tuhk, mis riputatakse nende peale, kes on rüvetunud, pühitseb liha puhtuseks, kui palju enam Kristuse veri, kes igavese Vaimu läbi iseenese veatuna ohverdas Jumalale, puhastab meie südametunnistuse surnud tegudest teenima elavat Jumalat ”.
