Hebrews 9:26 - Easy To Read Version26 If Christ had offered himself many times, then he would have needed to suffer many times since the time the world was made. But Christ came \{and offered himself\} only once. And that once is enough for all time. Christ came at a time when the world is nearing an end. Christ came to take away all sin by offering himself as a sacrifice. {\cf2\super [118]} Féach an chaibidilTuilleadh leaganachaKing James Version (Oxford) 176926 for then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.

“God has allowed 70 weeks {\cf2\super [105]} for your people and your holy city, Daniel. The 70 weeks {\cf2\super [106]} are ordered for these reasons: to stop doing bad things, to stop sinning, to make people pure, to bring the goodness that continues forever, to put a seal {\cf2\super [107]} on visions {\cf2\super [108]} and prophets, and to dedicate a very holy place.
He is not like those other priests. Those other priests had to offer (give) sacrifices {\cf2\super [75]} every day. They had to offer sacrifices first for their own sins and then for the sins of the people. But Christ doesn’t need to do that. Christ offered only one sacrifice for all time. Christ offered himself.
So surely the blood of Christ can do much, much more. Christ offered himself through the eternal Spirit {\cf2\super [106]} as a perfect sacrifice {\cf2\super [107]} to God. His blood will make us fully clean from the evil things we have done. His blood will make us pure even in our hearts. We are made pure so that we can worship (serve) the living God.
The animal that you saw was once \{alive\}. But that animal is not \{alive\} now. But that animal will \{be alive and\} come up out of the bottomless pit and go away to be destroyed. The people that live on the earth will be amazed when they see the animal. They will be amazed because he was once \{alive\}, is not \{alive\} now, but will come again. These are the people whose names have never been written in the book of life since the beginning of the world.
