Hebrews 10:4

10:4 For the blood of bulls and goats cannot take away sins. 1 

Hebrews 9:13

9:13 For if the blood of goats and bulls and the ashes of a young cow sprinkled on those who are defiled consecrated them and provided ritual purity, 2 

1 tn Grk “for it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins.”

2 tn Grk “for the purifying of the flesh.” The “flesh” here is symbolic of outward or ritual purity in contrast to inner purity, that of the conscience (cf. Heb 9:9).
