Hebrews 9:26

End of the world] The Second Coming is regarded as imminent: cp. Hebrews 10:37. Appeared] lit. 'been manifested,' i.e. in the flesh to men: cp. Hebrews 10:24, where the verb, though different, is from the same root.

27. In the case of men, death is a single event, the definite close of a stage in their career. So Christ's death is one final achievement. And as in the former case death is followed by judgment, so Christ's death is followed by His reappearing for the salvation of His people. Moreover, as death and judgment are connected as cause and effect, so Christ's death and His people's salvation are similarly connected: cp. Romans 5:18
