The blood of Christ, while it was to release the repentant sinner from the condemnation of the law, was not to cancel the sin; it would stand on record in the sanctuary until the final atonement; so in the type the blood of the sin offering removed the sin from the penitent, but it rested in the sanctuary until the Day of Atonement.

Mens Kristi blod skulle fri den angrende synder for lovens fordømmelse, skulle det ikke udslette synden. Den ville blive ved at være optegnet i helligdommen indtil den endelige forsoning. På samme måde fjernede syndofferets blod i forbilledet synden fra den angrende, men den blev i helligdommen indtil forsoningsdagen.
