Commentary— Tyndale Open Study Notes (plain English)
10:15-17 The author again quotes from Jer 31:33-34 (see Heb 8:7-12) to support the statement in 10:14, that Christ’s one offering under the new covenant has made worshipers perfect forever. • God’s laws have now been placed in their hearts and on their minds. This has internalized the believer’s relationship with God. • I will never again remember their sins and lawless deeds: As the author has shown (9:11–10:14), the superior sacrifice of Christ has made this new covenant reality possible.
