3 But in fact those sacrifices remind people of sins year after year, 4 because it’s impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to remove sins.
5 That’s why when Christ10:5. The original simply says "he." Christ is inferred from 9:24, 9:28. came into the world he said, "You didn’t want sacrifices or offerings, but you did prepare a body for me. 6 Burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin gave you no pleasure. 7 Then I said, ‘God, see I’ve come to do what you want me to do, just as it says about me in the book.’"10:7. Actually "the heading of a scroll," meaning the Scriptures. The quoatation is from Psalms 40:6-8. 8 As mentioned above, "You didn’t want sacrifices or offerings, and burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin gave you no pleasure," (even though they are offered in accordance with the law’s requirements). 9 Then he said, "See, I’ve come to do what you want." He gets rid of the first agreement so he can set up the second, 10 through which we all are made holy through Jesus Christ offering his body once and for all time.
