“Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us.”
Hebrews 9:12 (KJV)
Commentary on Hebrews 9:12
Christ entered the Holy Place 'not by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood.' This 'once' (Greek 'ephapax'—once for all time) secured 'eternal redemption.' The contrast is stark: animal blood versus Christ's blood, repeated sacrifices versus one final sacrifice, temporary covering versus eternal redemption. The Greek 'lytrosin' (redemption) means release by payment of ransom.
