Hébreux 9:10 Meaning and Commentary

Hebrews 9:10

[Which stood] only in meats and drinks
That is, along with the gifts and sacrifices offered, there only were meat offerings and drink offerings; things which only respect the body, and cannot therefore make perfect, as to the conscience; to which may be added, that while the tabernacle was standing, and typical service was in being, there was a prohibition of certain meats, as unclean, and an allowance of others, as clean, ( Leviticus 11:2-31 ) and there were certain drinks which were unlawful to certain persons, at certain times, as to the priests and Nazarites, ( Leviticus 10:9 ) ( Numbers 6:3 ) and which, for the above reason, could make no man perfect:

and divers washings
or "baptisms": the doctrine of which, the apostle would not have laid again, ( Hebrews 6:2 ) these were the washings of the priests and of the Israelites, and of sacrifices, and of garments, and of vessels and other things; and which, because they were performed by immersion, they are called "baptisms": and now since these only sanctified to the purifying of the flesh, or what was outward, they could not reach the conscience, or make perfect with respect to that: and

carnal ordinances:
which belonged to the flesh, and not the spirit or soul, and therefore could not affect that; besides, these were only

imposed on them until the time of reformation;
they were enjoined the Jews only, though by God himself; and were put upon them as a burden, or a yoke, and which was on some accounts intolerable, but were not to continue any longer than the time of the Gospel, here called "the time of reformation", or of "correction", and emendation; in which, things that were faulty and deficient are amended and perfected, and in which burdensome rites and ceremonies are removed, and better ordinances introduced: or rather of direction: in which saints are directed to Christ, the sum and substance of all types, shadows, and sacrifices, and in whom alone perfection is.

Hébreux 9:10 In-Context

8 Le Saint-Esprit montrant par là que le chemin du saint des saints n'avait pas encore été ouvert, tant que le premier tabernacle subsistait; ce qui est une figure pour le temps présent,

9 Pendant lequel on offre des dons et des sacrifices, qui ne peuvent rendre parfait quant à la conscience celui qui fait le service,

10 Uniquement par des viandes et des breuvages, et diverses ablutions, et des cérémonies charnelles, imposées seulement jusqu'au temps du renouvellement.

11 Mais Christ, étant venu comme souverain Sacrificateur des biens à venir, ayant passé par un tabernacle plus grand et plus parfait, qui n'a point été fait de main d'homme, c'est-à-dire, qui n'est point de cette création,

12 Est entré une seule fois dans le saint des saints, non avec le sang des boucs et des veaux, mais avec son propre sang, ayant obtenu une rédemption éternelle.
