E.W. Bullinger's Companion Bible Notes - Hebrews 10:12

Man = Priest. after He had = having. for ever = continually. App-151 . Compare Hebrews 10:1 . In Authorized Version from 1611 to 1630 the comma was placed after "ever". But in 1638 it was removed to after "sins", thus going back to the punctuation of the Bishops' Bible of 1568. The Greek expression is not the usual one, eis ton aiona, but as verses: Hebrews 10:1 , Hebrews 10:14 , Hebrews 10:3 eis to dienekes ( App-151 . H), and means "continually", in distinction from "interruptedly". It... read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Hebrews 10:12

12. this man—emphatic ( :-). for ever—joined in English Version with "offered one sacrifice"; offered one sacrifice, the efficacy of which endures for ever; literally. "continuously," (compare :-). "The offering of Christ, once for all made, will continue the one and only oblation for ever; no other will supersede it" [BENGEL]. The mass, which professes to be the frequent repetition of one and the same sacrifice of Christ's body, is hence disproved. For not only is Christ's body one, but also... read more

3. The accomplishment of our high priest 10:1-18This section on the high priestly ministry of Christ (Hebrews 7:1 to Hebrews 10:18) concludes with this pericope in which the writer emphasized the perfecting effect of Jesus Christ’s sacrifice on New Covenant believers. He wrote this to impress his readers further with the superiority of their condition compared with that of Old Covenant believers.As pointed out previously, Hebrews 7:1 to Hebrews 10:18 constitutes an exposition of distinctive... read more

The writer stressed the finality of Jesus Christ’s offering further with the contrast in these verses. [Note: See William David Spencer, "Christ’s Sacrifice as Apologetic: An Application of Hebrews 10:1-18," Journal of the Evangelical Theological Society 40:2 (June 1997):189-97, for a response to resurgent contemporary paganism that encourages self-sacrifice and other types of blood sacrifices.] The Levitical priests never sat down because they never finished their work, but Jesus Christ sat... read more

III. THE HIGH PRIESTLY OFFICE OF THE SON 5:11-10:39The transition from exposition (Hebrews 4:15 to Hebrews 5:10) to exhortation (Hebrews 5:11 to Hebrews 6:20) marks the beginning of a new division in this sermon. The structure of this division is as follows. [Note: Ibid., p. 128.] a Preliminary exhortation (Hebrews 5:11 to Hebrews 6:20)A The priest who is like Melchizedek (Hebrews 7:1-28)B The single, personal sacrifice for sins (Hebrews 8:1 to Hebrews 9:28)C The achievement of eternal... read more

10:12 down (d-10) Or 'set himself down,' as ch. 1.3, perpetuity (e-12) See Note b, ch. 5.6. Having perfectly completed the work, he could sit down, and abide so, having done all; it is in contrast with the priests. They stood daily; he is set down 'for a continuance.' Connecting 'in perpetuity' with sacrifice spoils the whole force of the passage. read more

Sacrifice Complete in the Fulfilment of God’s Will. The Open Way to GodRecapitulation and close of the argument. The sacrifices of the Law were ineffective to cleanse the conscience, as shown by their continual repetition (Hebrews 10:1-4). In the mind of God they were temporary. But the offering of Christ is a sacrifice that accomplishes the will of God and consecrates us as the people of a new covenant (Hebrews 10:5-10). That it is efficacious and final is also proved by the session of Christ... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Hebrews 10:12

(12) But this man.—Rather, but He. In the main this verse is a combination of Hebrews 7:27 (Hebrews 9:26) and Hebrews 8:1. One addition is made, in the words, “for ever.” These words (which occur in three other places, Hebrews 7:3; Hebrews 10:1; Hebrews 10:14) are by many joined with what precedes, by others with the latter part of the sentence, “it down on the right hand of God.” The different editions of our Bible and Prayer Book (Epistle for Good Friday) are divided, some (including the... read more

Hebrews 10:4 To a modern these words have an antiquated sound. The world of ideas which they suggest has passed so entirely away that we look back upon the stage they represent as a stage far below us, so far, indeed, that it is barely conceivable. But they were originally the apex of a long ascent The quiet decisiveness and even scorn with which the writer sets down this conviction breathe a feeling of relief, after the long centuries of persistent and unavailing sacrifices. Humanity is... read more
