This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

12. διὰ τοῦ ἰδίου αἵματος. Lit., “through,” or “by means of His own blood.” The thought is the same as that of Tit 2:14, “Who gave Himself for us that He might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto Himself a peculiar people.” This sanctification or purifying consecration of His people by the blood of His own voluntary sacrifice corresponds to the sprinkling of the atoning blood on the propitiatory by the High-priest. For “the people,” see Heb 2:17.

ἔξω τῆς πύλης. Heb 9:26; Mat 27:32; Joh 19:17-18.
