‏ Hebrews 9:27

It is appointed ( αποκειτα ). Present middle (or passive) of αποκειμα, "is laid away" for men. Cf. same verb in Lu 19:20; Col 1:5; 2Ti 4:8 (Paul's crown).

Once to die ( απαξ αποθανειν ). Once for all to die, as once for all to live here. No reincarnation here.

After this cometh judgement ( μετα τουτο κρισις ). Death is not all. Man has to meet Christ as Judge as Jesus himself graphically pictures (Mt 25:31-46; Joh 5:25-29).
