Adam Clarke Bible Commentary
For by one offering - His death upon the cross. He hath perfected for ever - He has procured remission of sins and holiness; fur it is well observed here, and in several parts of this epistle, that τελειοω, to make perfect, is the same as αφεσιν ἁμαρτιων ποιεω, to procure remission of sins. Them that are sanctified - Τους ἁγιαζομενους· Them that have received the sprinkling of the blood of this offering. These, therefore, receiving redemption through that blood, have no need of any other offering; as this was a complete atonement, purification, and title to eternal glory.
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary
For--The sacrifice being "for ever" in its efficacy (Heb 10:12) needs no renewal. them that are sanctified--rather as Greek, "them that are being sanctified." The sanctification (consecration to God) of the elect (Pe1 1:2) believers is perfect in Christ once for all (see on Heb 10:10). (Contrast the law, Heb 7:19; Heb 9:9; Heb 10:1). The development of that sanctification is progressive.
John Gill Bible Commentary
For by one offering,.... The same as before; himself, body and soul; this is a reason why he is set down, and will continue so for ever, and why he expects his enemies to be made his footstool; because by one sacrifice for sin, which he has once offered, he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified; that is, who are sanctified by God the Father, Jde 1:1 or, who are set apart by him in eternal election, from the rest of the world, for his own use, service, and glory, to a state of grace and holiness here, and happiness hereafter; for this is not to be understood either of their being sanctified in Christ, though the Syriac version reads, "that are sanctified" in him, or by his Spirit, though both are true of the same persons; these Christ, by his sacrifice, has perfected, and has perfectly fulfilled the law for them; he has perfectly expiated their sins; he has obtained the full pardon of all their sins, and complete redemption; he has perfectly justified them from all things, and that for ever; which shows the continued virtue of Christ's sacrifice, in all generations, to all the elect of God, and the fulness and duration of their salvation; and so Christ by his one sacrifice did what the law, and all its sacrifices, could not do, Heb 10:1.

Our Inheritance
By David Wilkerson1Inheritance in ChristRighteousness1KI 21:32KI 2:13MAT 6:33ROM 3:222CO 5:21GAL 3:29EPH 1:11COL 3:3HEB 10:141PE 1:4David Wilkerson emphasizes the significance of our inheritance in Christ, comparing it to Elisha receiving Elijah's cloak, which symbolizes the perfect righteousness bestowed upon us by Jesus. This righteousness is our inheritance, meant to be valued and sought after, just as Naboth fiercely protected his vineyard from King Ahab. Wilkerson urges believers to understand that this inheritance is a gift from God, providing us with the ability to stand justified in His presence. He encourages us to pursue this righteousness diligently, as it is an unshakeable foundation that no external force can take away. Ultimately, we are called to claim and cherish this divine legacy, seeking God's kingdom and His righteousness above all else.
No Longer Slaves but Children
By C.H. Spurgeon1GraceAdoptionJHN 1:12ROM 5:8ROM 8:152CO 5:21GAL 4:7EPH 1:5COL 1:13HEB 10:141PE 2:91JN 3:1C.H. Spurgeon emphasizes that through faith in Christ's atonement, believers transition from being slaves to becoming children of God. This transformation is not based on our works or the Spirit's actions but solely on God's unconditional love and grace. Spurgeon reassures that we are not bound by the law but have received the spirit of adoption, allowing us to call God 'Abba, Father.' Our identity in Christ means we are seen as righteous and loved, regardless of our unworthiness. This profound change motivates us to work not for salvation, but because we are already saved.

He highlights the personal experiences of conviction, justification, conversion, and sanctification that individuals go through in their journey towards holiness, pointing out that every doctrine of the Bible leads to a present personal experience. Cundiff stresses the necessity of working out one's salvation with fear and trembling, while acknowledging that it is God who works in believers to fulfill His good pleasure.

Simpson emphasizes the superiority of Christ as our Great High Priest over Aaron and the Levitical priesthood, highlighting that Christ's priesthood is established on better promises and a better covenant. He explains that Christ belongs to a superior order of priesthood, the order of Melchizedek, and is from the tribe of Judah, which signifies His royal authority. Simpson elaborates on the eternal and unchangeable nature of Christ's priesthood, His perfect character, and the better sanctuary in which He ministers, ultimately underscoring the efficacy of His sacrifice compared to the old covenant. The sermon concludes with the assurance of Christ's ability to save completely and the call for believers to share this salvation with others.
