10 Those who serve at the tent have no right to eat what is sacrificed at our altar.
11 The chief priest brings the blood of animals into the holy place as an offering for sin. But the bodies of those animals were burned outside the Israelite camp.
12 That is why Jesus suffered outside the gates of Jerusalem. He suffered to make the people holy with his own blood.
13 So we must go to him outside the camp and endure the insults he endured.
14 We don’t have a permanent city here on earth, but we are looking for the city that we will have in the future.
15 Through Jesus we should always bring God a sacrifice of praise, that is, words that acknowledge him.
16 Don’t forget to do good things for others and to share what you have with them. These are the kinds of sacrifices that please God.
