"Aboveª when he said,ª°² Sacrificeª andª offering²¹ andª burnt offeringsª andª [offering] forª sinª thou wouldestª° not,ª neitherª hadst pleasureª° [therein]; whichª are offered²°¹ byª the¹ law;ª" {Hbr 10:8} + "Whichª [was] a figureª forª the¹ timeª then present,ª° inª whichª were offeredª° bothª giftsª andª sacrifices,ª that couldª° notª make²° him that did the service²° perfect,ª°¹¹ as pertaining¹ to² the conscience;ª" {Hbr 9:9} + "Forª ifª the¹ bloodª of bullsª andª of goats,ª andª the ashesª of an heiferª sprinklingª° the¹ unclean,ª° sanctifiethª° toª the¹ purifyingª of the¹ flesh:ª" {Hbr 9:13} + "I will not¹ reproveª° thee for¹ thy sacrificesª or thy burnt offerings,ª [to have been] continuallyª before¹ me. ...

take:
There were essential defects in these sacrifices. 1st - They were not of the same nature with those who sinned. 2nd - They were not of sufficient value to make satisfaction for the affronts done to the justice and government of God. 3rd - The beasts offered up under the law could not consent to put themselves in the sinner's room and place. The atoning sacrifice must be one capable of consenting, and must voluntarily substitute himself in the sinner's stead: Christ did so. "Andª² everyª¹ priestª standethª°° dailyªª ministeringª° andª offeringª° oftentimesª the¹ sameª sacrifices,ª whichª canª° never²¹ take awayª° sins:ª" {Hbr 10:11} + "Takeª° with¹ you words,ª and turnª° to¹ the LORD:ª sayª° unto¹ him, Take awayª° all¹ iniquity,ª and receiveª° [us] graciously:²¹ so will we renderª° the calvesª of our lips.ª" {Hsa 14:2} + "The¹ next dayª Johnª seethª° Jesusª comingª° untoª him,ª andª saith,ª° Beholdª the¹ Lambª of God,ª which² taketh awayª° the¹ sinª of the¹ world.ª" {Jhn 1:29} + "Forª thisª [is]¹ myª² covenantª unto them,ª whenª I shall take awayª° their²¹ sins.ª" {Rom 11:27} + "Andª ye knowª° thatª heª was manifestedª° toª take awayª° ourª sins;ª andª inª himª isª° noª sin.ª" {1Jn 3:5}
