“Woe to the world because of offenses. For offenses will inevitably come, but woe to that person by whom the offense comes.
“But without exception[fn] they all began to make excuses. The first one said to him, ‘I have bought a field, and I must go out and see it. I ask you to excuse me.’
“Woe to pregnant women and nursing mothers in those days, for there will be great distress in the land[fn] and wrath against this people.

Therefore, it was necessary for the copies of the things in the heavens to be purified with these sacrifices, but the heavenly things themselves to be purified with better sacrifices than these.
