Matthew Henry's Complete Bible Commentary

Hebrews 10

The apostle knew very well that the Hebrews, to whom he wrote, were strangely fond of the Levitical dispensation, and therefore he fills his mouth with arguments to wean them from it; and in order thereto proceeds in this chapter, I. To lay low the whole of that priesthood and sacrifice, Hebrews 10:1-10:6. II. He raises and exalts the priesthood of Christ very high, that he might effectually recommend him and his gospel to them, Hebrews 10:7-10:18. III. He shows to believers the honours and dignities of their state, and calls them to suitable duties, Hebrews 10:19-10:39. MHBCC 1144.1
