11 For the life of the creature is in the blood, and I have given it to you on the altar to make atonement for your lives—for it is the blood that makes atonement because of the life.
(in religious contexts) reparation or expiation for sin:
"an annual ceremony of confession and atonement for sin"


That does not mean saving!

so there was sacrificing going on in the Temple when Jesus was alive and sin offering?
Jesus, and all the other Jews that had seen and accepted Him, informed them of the fact that it was time the change gears. Paul was blinded, but this led him toward the Truth, not away from it. Paul never gave any of the unbelieving Jews a false sense of security like some are doing today.

but all of the ancient Hebrew/Jews in the Old Testament did this and was later saved through Christ.

so the Jews of Jesus day were doing this and later Jesus would save them.

so you disagree when Paul says ALL of Israel will be saved?

Not with unbelief.....ever. They have to believe on Jesus, no matter how many sacrifices they made.

Jesus is the only way, the truth and the life. Besides, does not the scriptures say Jesus returns with 10000 of his saints? Surely it is not that difficult to figure out.

They did not quote from the book of Enoch, they quoted from OT and Enoch was an OT prophet. We have already cover this. What's next they quored from Quran? Don't be absurd!
where in the Old Testament is that listed at?

it is in Enoch!

I shall humbly confess that the salvational state of Jews who died thousands of years ago is beyond the scope of my ministry, but I do recall Jesus telling a certain Jew named Nicodemus that he must be born again.
