1 For the law, having a shadow of good things to come, and not the very image of the things, can never, with the same sacrifices, which they offer year by year continually, make a perfect expiation for those who come to them:
Hebrews 10:1 Cross References - Anderson

Hebrews 7:18-19
Hebrews 8:5
5 and these serve the copy and shadow of heavenly things, as Moses was admonished of God when he was about to make the tabernacle: See now, says he, that you make all things according to the pattern shown you in the mount.
Hebrews 9:8-9
8 the Holy Spirit signifying this, that the way into the most holy was not yet made manifest, while the first tabernacle was still standing,
9 which, as a symbol, remains to the present time, in which are offered both gifts and sacrifices that can not make perfect, as it respects the conscience, him that does the service;
Hebrews 9:11
11 But Christ, having come a high priest of the good things to come, through the greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, (that is, not of this building,)
Hebrews 9:23
23 It was necessary, therefore, that the copies of the things in the heavens should be consecrated by these sacrifices; but that the heavenly things themselves should be consecrated by better sacrifices than these.

25 Nor has he entered, that he should offer himself often, as the high priest enters the holy places every year with the blood of another:
Hebrews 10:3-4
Hebrews 10:11-18
11 And every priest stands daily ministering, and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins:
12 but after offering one sacrifice for sins, he himself sits continually at the right hand of God,
13 henceforth waiting till his enemies be made his footstool.
14 For by one offering, he has made a perfect and perpetual expiation for the sanctified.
15 And, indeed, the Holy Spirit is a witness for us. For after he had said before,
16 This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, says the Lord; putting my laws in their hearts, I will also write them in their understandings:
17 he adds, And their sins and iniquities I will remember no more.
18 Now, where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.
