| Acts 7:41 | And they made a calf in those days, and offered a sacrifice to the idol and were rejoicing in the works of their hands. |
| Acts 7:42 | But God turned away and gave them over to worship the host of heaven, as it is written in the book of the prophets: "'Did you bring to me slain beasts and sacrifices, during the forty years in the wilderness, O house of Israel? |

| Hebrews 9:11 | But when Christ appeared as a high priest of the good things that have come, then through the greater and more perfect tent (not made with hands, that is, not of this creation) |
| Hebrews 10:1 | For since the law has but a shadow of the good things to come instead of the true form of these realities, it can never, by the same sacrifices that are continually offered every year, make perfect those who draw near. |
| Hebrews 10:2 | Otherwise, would they not have ceased to be offered, since the worshipers, having once been cleansed, would no longer have any consciousness of sin? |
| Hebrews 10:3 | But in these sacrifices there is a reminder of sin every year. |
| Hebrews 10:4 | For it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins. |
| Hebrews 10:5 | Consequently, when Christ came into the world, he said, "Sacrifices and offerings you have not desired, but a body have you prepared for me; |
| Hebrews 10:6 | in burnt offerings and sin offerings you have taken no pleasure. |
| Hebrews 10:7 | Then I said, 'Behold, I have come to do your will, O God, as it is written of me in the scroll of the book.'" |
| Hebrews 10:8 | When he said above, "You have neither desired nor taken pleasure in sacrifices and offerings and burnt offerings and sin offerings" (these are offered according to the law), |
| Hebrews 10:9 | then he added, "Behold, I have come to do your will." He abolishes the first in order to establish the second. |
| Hebrews 10:10 | And by that will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all. |
| Hebrews 10:11 | And every priest stands daily at his service, offering repeatedly the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins. |
| Hebrews 10:12 | But when Christ had offered for all time a single sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of God, |
| Hebrews 10:13 | waiting from that time until his enemies should be made a footstool for his feet. |
| Hebrews 10:14 | For by a single offering he has perfected for all time those who are being sanctified. |
| Hebrews 10:15 | And the Holy Spirit also bears witness to us; for after saying, |
| Hebrews 10:16 | "This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, declares the Lord: I will put my laws on their hearts, and write them on their minds," |
| Hebrews 10:17 | then he adds, "I will remember their sins and their lawless deeds no more." |
| Hebrews 10:18 | Where there is forgiveness of these, there is no longer any offering for sin. |
| Hebrews 12:26 | At that time his voice shook the earth, but now he has promised, "Yet once more I will shake not only the earth but also the heavens." |
| Hebrews 12:27 | This phrase, "Yet once more," indicates the removal of things that are shaken--that is, things that have been made--in order that the things that cannot be shaken may remain. |
| Hebrews 12:28 | Therefore let us be grateful for receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, and thus let us offer to God acceptable worship, with reverence and awe, |
| that | |
| Isaiah 66:1 | Thus says the LORD: "Heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool; what is the house that you would build for me, and what is the place of my rest? |
| Isaiah 66:2 | All these things my hand has made, and so all these things came to be, declares the LORD. But this is the one to whom I will look: he who is humble and contrite in spirit and trembles at my word. |
| Isaiah 66:3 | "He who slaughters an ox is like one who kills a man; he who sacrifices a lamb, like one who breaks a dog's neck; he who presents a grain offering, like one who offers pig's blood; he who makes a memorial offering of frankincense, like one who blesses an idol. These have chosen their own ways, and their soul delights in their abominations; |
| Isaiah 66:4 | I also will choose harsh treatment for them and bring their fears upon them, because when I called, no one answered, when I spoke they did not listen; but they did what was evil in my eyes and chose that in which I did not delight." |
| Isaiah 66:5 | Hear the word of the LORD, you who tremble at his word: "Your brothers who hate you and cast you out for my name's sake have said, 'Let the LORD be glorified, that we may see your joy'; but it is they who shall be put to shame. |
| Isaiah 66:6 | "The sound of an uproar from the city! A sound from the temple! The sound of the LORD, rendering recompense to his enemies! |
| Jeremiah 7:4 | Do not trust in these deceptive words: 'This is the temple of the LORD, the temple of the LORD, the temple of the LORD.' |
| Jeremiah 7:5 | "For if you truly amend your ways and your deeds, if you truly execute justice one with another, |
| Jeremiah 7:6 | if you do not oppress the sojourner, the fatherless, or the widow, or shed innocent blood in this place, and if you do not go after other gods to your own harm, |
| Jeremiah 7:7 | then I will let you dwell in this place, in the land that I gave of old to your fathers forever. |
| Jeremiah 7:8 | "Behold, you trust in deceptive words to no avail. |
| Jeremiah 7:9 | Will you steal, murder, commit adultery, swear falsely, make offerings to Baal, and go after other gods that you have not known, |
| Jeremiah 7:10 | and then come and stand before me in this house, which is called by my name, and say, 'We are delivered!'--only to go on doing all these abominations? |
| Jeremiah 7:11 | Has this house, which is called by my name, become a den of robbers in your eyes? Behold, I myself have seen it, declares the LORD. |
| Jeremiah 7:12 | Go now to my place that was in Shiloh, where I made my name dwell at first, and see what I did to it because of the evil of my people Israel. |
| Jeremiah 7:13 | And now, because you have done all these things, declares the LORD, and when I spoke to you persistently you did not listen, and when I called you, you did not answer, |
| Jeremiah 7:14 | therefore I will do to the house that is called by my name, and in which you trust, and to the place that I gave to you and to your fathers, as I did to Shiloh. |
| Jeremiah 26:6 | then I will make this house like Shiloh, and I will make this city a curse for all the nations of the earth.'" |
| Jeremiah 26:7 | The priests and the prophets and all the people heard Jeremiah speaking these words in the house of the LORD. |
| Jeremiah 26:8 | And when Jeremiah had finished speaking all that the LORD had commanded him to speak to all the people, then the priests and the prophets and all the people laid hold of him, saying, "You shall die! |
| Jeremiah 26:9 | Why have you prophesied in the name of the LORD, saying, 'This house shall be like Shiloh, and this city shall be desolate, without inhabitant'?" And all the people gathered around Jeremiah in the house of the LORD. |
| Jeremiah 26:12 | Then Jeremiah spoke to all the officials and all the people, saying, "The LORD sent me to prophesy against this house and this city all the words you have heard. |
| Jeremiah 26:18 | "Micah of Moresheth prophesied in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah, and said to all the people of Judah: 'Thus says the LORD of hosts, "'Zion shall be plowed as a field; Jerusalem shall become a heap of ruins, and the mountain of the house a wooded height.' |
| Daniel 9:26 | And after the sixty-two weeks, an anointed one shall be cut off and shall have nothing. And the people of the prince who is to come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary. Its end shall come with a flood, and to the end there shall be war. Desolations are decreed. |
| Micah 3:12 | Therefore because of you Zion shall be plowed as a field; Jerusalem shall become a heap of ruins, and the mountain of the house a wooded height. |
| Zechariah 11:1 | Open your doors, O Lebanon, that the fire may devour your cedars! |
| Zechariah 14:2 | For I will gather all the nations against Jerusalem to battle, and the city shall be taken and the houses plundered and the women raped. Half of the city shall go out into exile, but the rest of the people shall not be cut off from the city. |
| Matthew 24:1 | Jesus left the temple and was going away, when his disciples came to point out to him the buildings of the temple. |
| Matthew 24:2 | But he answered them, "You see all these, do you not? Truly, I say to you, there will not be left here one stone upon another that will not be thrown down." |
| Mark 14:58 | "We heard him say, 'I will destroy this temple that is made with hands, and in three days I will build another, not made with hands.'" |
