Bible verse
Instead, those sacrifices are an annual reminder of sins,
Hebrews 10:3 · BSB
The verses around it, from Hebrews 10.
1 For the law is only a shadow of the good things to come, not the realities themselves. It can never, by the same sacrifices offered year after year, make perfect those who draw near to worship.
2 If it could, would not the offerings have ceased? For the worshipers would have been cleansed once for all, and would no longer have felt the guilt of their sins.
3 Instead, those sacrifices are an annual reminder of sins,
4 because it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins.
5 Therefore, when Christ came into the world, He said: “Sacrifice and offering You did not desire, but a body You prepared for Me.
6 In burnt offerings and sin offerings You took no delight.
7 Then I said, ‘Here I am, it is written about Me in the scroll: I have come to do Your will, O God.’”
KJV
But in those [sacrifices there is] a remembrance again [made] of sins every year.
ASV
But in those sacrifices there is a remembrance made of sins year by year.
ERV
But in those sacrifices there is a remembrance made of sins year by year.
