{Wherefore Jesus also} (dio kai I(8873)ous). The parallel is
drawn between the O.T. ritual and the better sacrifice of Jesus
already discussed ( 9:13-10:18 ). The purpose of Jesus is shown
(hina hagias(8869), hina and the first aorist active subjunctive
of hagiaz(935c), to sanctify), the means employed (dia tou idiou
haimatos, by his own blood), the place of his suffering
(epathen, as in 5:8 ) is also given (ex(9320)t(8873) pul(8873), outside
the gate, implied in Joh 19:17 ) which phrase corresponds to
"outside the camp" of verse 11 .
