Robertson's Word Pictures (NT)
Made nothing perfect (ouden eteleiwsen). Another parenthesis. First aorist active indicative of teleiow. See verse Hebrews 7:11. And yet law is necessary.
A bringing in thereupon (epeisagwgh). An old double compound (epi, additional, eisagwgh, bringing in from eisagw). Here only in N.T. Used by Josephus (Ant. XI. 6, 2) for the introduction of a new wife in place of the repudiated one.
Of a better hope (kreittonov elpidov). This better hope (Hebrews 6:18-20) does bring us near to God (eggizomen tw qew) as we come close to God's throne through Christ (Hebrews 4:16).
