Heb.10:7 Then I said, 'Behold, I have come (in the scroll of the book it is written of me) to do your will, O God.'"{Psalm 40:6-8} 10:8 Previously saying, "Sacrifices and offerings and whole burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin you didn't desire, neither had pleasure in them" (those which are offered according to the law), 10:9 then he has said, "Behold, I have come to do your will." He takes away the first, that he may establish the second.

How very powerful is faith to our God? So powerful that His Son Christ Jesus could replace all that came before him by the law of God. Yes, as shocking as that thought is, first to the Jew's, and many legalized Christian's, Christ removed God's own righteous law!

Hebrews 11:6 Without faith it is impossible to be well pleasing to him, for he who comes to God must believe that he exists, and that he is a rewarder of those who seek him.

Our Father did not want sacrifice and offerings under the law, He wanted redemption for the life that Adam lost sending all of us into sin and death. He wanted perfection in the law of love, which is perfection in our faith and/or trust in Him. But why than that which was first, that is, the law? It was to prove we are all sinners, but more than that, our nature as sinners, and what is that nature?

Hebrews 7:28 For the law appoints men as high priests who have weakness, but the word of the oath which came after the law appoints a Son forever who has been perfected.

It is the sinful flesh nature is to justify ourselves before man and God, the constant struggle in our flesh to make ourselves right. The law either formed us in more self-righteousness, or prepare us for putting faith in unmerited kindness of God in His Son Christ Jesus. From the law came a pronounce need to be righteous through self, and or turning to God in repentance through the innocent blood of animals.

When Christ came righteousness through the law was so formed into the Jewish community so what Christ had to say was meaningless. Subsequently, they murder the Son of God thinking they were righteous by the law, how? In destroying the enemy of God, an apostate from their law! Now an all time pattern was set which would separate the weeds from the wheat, the pattern of Cain in murdering his own brother over sacrifice too God.

1 John 3:12 unlike Cain, who was of the evil one, and killed his brother. Why did he kill him? Because his works were evil, and his brother's righteous.

But all those sacrifice and offering under the law were meaningless, none of them, not even their good works could saved them, it took faith, in what YHWH would bring into the world the saving everlasting blood of the passover lamb of Christ Christ Jesus.

Romans 10:4 For Christ is the fulfillment{or, completion, or end} of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.
