“Nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest entereth into the holy place every year with blood of others;”
Nor was it that he should offer himself repeatedly, as the high priest enters the Holy Place year after year with blood not his own — the contrast with the high priest's annual repetition proves Christ's sacrifice superior. Repeatedly (pollakis) emphasizes the exhausting cycle of the old system; Christ offers once and his offering never needs repetition.
