'Sins' in the Bible
The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact expression of His nature, sustaining all things by His powerful word. After making purification for sins, He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high.
Therefore, He had to be like His brothers in every way, so that He could become a merciful and faithful high priest in service to God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people.
For every high priest taken from men is appointed in service to God for the people, to offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins.
He doesn’t need to offer sacrifices every day, as high priests do—first for their own sins, then for those of the people. He did this once for all when He offered Himself.
For I will be merciful to their wrongdoing,and I will never again remember their sins.
But the high priest alone enters the second room, and he does that only once a year, and never without blood, which he offers for himself and for the sins of the people committed in ignorance.
so also the Messiah, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for Him.
Otherwise, wouldn’t they have stopped being offered, since the worshipers, once purified, would no longer have any consciousness of sins?
But in the sacrifices there is a reminder of sins every year.
For it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins.
Every priest stands day after day ministering and offering the same sacrifices time after time, which can never take away sins.
But this man, after offering one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down at the right hand of God.
He adds:I will never again remembertheir sins and their lawless acts.
For if we deliberately sin after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins,
