"This is a friendly way of dealing with the Hebrew Bible, and the Christian Bible should be treated in the same way."
Actually, it all has to do with the Hebrew language. So if you want it to apply to the Christian bible, one would have to use the original Greek.
So now I'm confused. Is Paul saying the only way for forgiveness of sin is through a blood sacrifice or not?
I re-read what you wrote about the 2 different dimensions. I think the problem is the definition of sin. It's not just as simple as that one word as there are many types of sins and offerings for each.
