He shall appear a second time for those without sin38 who await Him for rescue. Chapter 10 1. For the Law, having a shadow of the coming good things, not the representation of the deeds themselves, with the same slaughter-offerings year by year that they offer perpetually, are never at all able to perfect those who approach. 2. Since then, wouldn’t they have ceased to be offered, because those who serve it, once purified, did no longer have any sinful consciousness? 3. Instead, by these slaughter-offerings, they make a remembrance of their sins year by year. Greek and Aramaic translations say “He shall appear a second time without sin for those who await Him for rescue.” This is obvious that He has yet no sin, but we believe the original `Ivríyth (Hebrew) says this because those who believe on His name and are reckoned righteous are without sin. 38
