Modern spelling is a reading aid: the words are the author’s, only the spelling is modernized. Original shows the page as printed, with the transcription marks.
But they are not perfected by legal sacrifices, therefore they are perfected by Christs sacrifice.
The proposition (or Major, as in schools it is termed) is implied by the mention of these two distinct sacrifices, in this testimony, and throughout the whole Epistle.
