Hebrews 13:12 in context

The verses around it, from Hebrews 13.

8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.

9 Do not be carried away by all kinds of strange teachings, for it is good for the heart to be strengthened by grace and not by foods of no value to those devoted to them.

10 We have an altar from which those who serve at the tabernacle have no right to eat.

11 Although the high priest brings the blood of animals into the Holy Place as a sacrifice for sin, the bodies are burned outside the camp.

12 And so Jesus also suffered outside the city gate, to sanctify the people by His own blood.

13 Therefore let us go to Him outside the camp, bearing the disgrace He bore.

14 For here we do not have a permanent city, but we are looking for the city that is to come.

15 Through Jesus, therefore, let us continually offer to God a sacrifice of praise, the fruit of lips that confess His name.

16 And do not neglect to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices God is pleased.
