Hebrews 13:12
Wherefore Jesus also ( διο κα Ιησους ). The parallel is drawn between the O.T. ritual and the better sacrifice of Jesus already discussed (9:13-10:18). The purpose of Jesus is shown ( ινα αγιαση, ινα and the first aorist active subjunctive of αγιαζω, to sanctify), the means employed ( δια του ιδιου αιματος, by his own blood), the place of his suffering ( επαθεν, as in 5:8) is also given ( εξω της πυλης, outside the gate, implied in Joh 19:17) which phrase corresponds to "outside the camp" of verse 11.
