* and not with the blood of goats and calves , but with his own blood , into the holy place , and thereby found eternal redemption . * For if the blood of goats and bulls , and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling the defiled , makes them holy as regards purity of their flesh , * how much more will the blood of Christ , who through an eternal Spirit offered himself an unblemished sacrifice to God , cleanse our consciences from dead works for the service of the living God . * For this reason he is the mediator of a better covenant that , a death having taken place for redemption from sins under the first covenant , those who have been called may receive the eternal inheritance promised to them . * For where there is a last will and testament the death of the testator must be put in evidence . * For a will is valid in the case of the dead : it never has any force while the testator is living .
