that_o although_o he_o be_v call_v to_o so_o great_a a_o office_n as_o to_o interpose_v between_o god_n and_o the_o people_n to_o make_v reconciliation_n for_o they_o yet_o he_o be_v no_o far_o

of_o a_o sacrifice_n for_o himself_o and_o he_o be_v to_o offer_v a_o sacrifice_n for_o himself_o as_o well_o as_o for_o the_o people_n there_o salvation_n and_o reconciliation_n can_v not_o be_v

you_o see_v the_o high_a priest_n under_o the_o law_n can_v not_o be_v a_o high_a priest_n without_o he_o be_v consecrate_v so_o in_o the_o death_n of_o something_o which_o must_v be_v slay_v as_o a_o
