G1510–εἰμί–eimi

And they have been appointed priests many in number, because death prevents their continuance in office:

εἰσιν eisin “are”

If then He were still on earth, He would not be a priest at all, since here there are already those who present the offerings in obedience to the Law,

ἦν ēn “He were”ἦν ēn “He was being”ὄντων ontōn “while are being”

But, as a matter of fact, the ministry which Christ has obtained is all the nobler a ministry, in that He is at the same time the negotiator of a sublimer covenant, based upon sublimer promises.

ἐστιν estin “He is”

For if that first Covenant had been free from imperfection, there would have been no attempt to introduce another.

ἦν ēn “was”

`But this is the Covenant that I will covenant with the house of Israel after those days,' says the Lord: I will put My laws into their minds and will write them upon their hearts. And I will indeed be their God and they shall be My People.

ἔσομαι esomai “I will be”ἔσονταί esontai “will be”

Because I will be merciful to their wrongdoings, and their sins I will remember no longer.'"

ἔσομαι esomai “I will be”

And above the ark were the Cherubim denoting God's glorious presence and overshadowing the Mercy-seat. But I cannot now speak about all these in detail.

ἔστιν estin “it is”

But Christ appeared as a High Priest of the blessings that are soon to come by means of the greater and more perfect Tent of worship, a tent which has not been built with hands--that is to say does not belong to this material creation--

ἔστιν estin “is”

And because of this He is the negotiator of a new Covenant, in order that, since a life has been given in atonement for the offences committed under the first Covenant, those who have been called may receive the eternal inheritance which has been promis

ἐστίν, estin “He is,”

It is through that divine will that we have been set free from sin, through the offering of Jesus Christ as our sacrifice once for all.

ἐσμὲν esmen “we are”

by the new and ever-living way which He opened up for us through the rending of the veil--that is to say, of His earthly nature--

ἔστιν estin “is”

But we are not people who shrink back and perish, but are among those who believe and gain possession of their souls.

ἐσμὲν esmen “are”

Now faith is a well-grounded assurance of that for which we hope, and a conviction of the reality of things which we do not see.

Ἔστιν Estin “Is”

But where there is no faith it is impossible truly to please Him; for the man who draws near to God must believe that there is a God and that He proves Himself a rewarder of those who earnestly try to find Him.

ἔστιν estin “He exists”

All these died in the possession of faith. They had not received the promised blessings, but had seen them from a distance and had greeted them, and had acknowledged themselves to be foreigners and strangers here on earth;

εἰσιν eisin “they are”

but, as it is, we see them eager for a better land, that is to say, a heavenly one. For this reason God is not ashamed to be called their God, for He has now prepared a city for them.

ἔστιν estin “is”

(They were men of whom the world was not worthy.) They wandered across deserts and mountains, or hid themselves in caves and in holes in the ground.

ἦν ēn “was”

The sufferings that you are enduring are for your discipline. God is dealing with you as sons; for what son is there whom his father does not discipline?

ἐστιν estin “is”

And if you are left without discipline, of which every true son has had a share, that shows that you are bastards, and not true sons.

ἐστε este “you are”ἐστε. este “you are.”

and so terrible was the scene that Moses said, "I tremble with fear."

ἦν ēn “was”εἰμι eimi “I am”

Remember prisoners, as if you were in prison with them; and remember those suffering ill-treatment, for you yourselves also are still in the body.

ὄντες ontes “being”

Through Him, then, let us continually lay on the altar a sacrifice of praise to God, namely, the utterance of lips that give thanks to His Name.

ἔστιν estin “is”

Only let endurance have perfect results so that you may become perfect and complete, deficient in nothing.

ἦτε ēte “you may be”

Let no one say when passing through trial, "My temptation is from God;" for God is incapable of being tempted to do evil, and He Himself tempts no one.

ἐστιν estin “is”

Every gift which is good, and every perfect boon, is from above, and comes down from the Father, who is the source of all Light. In Him there is no variation nor the slightest suggestion of change.
