They fit into a broader context, which is provided by Scripture and especially by key passages which sum up the life of Christ and the movement of redemptive history. The more you understand scripture, the more you understand Christ. Do you process your world with the Psalms? Do you apply the prophecies of Jeremiah in your everyday decision making? You should. That's the example that Hebrews sets for us here at the conclusion of the argument that Jesus is far superior to every aspect of the Levitical system. Well, all that said, the specific point our author takes from Ps 40 is that Jesus' sacrifice of Himself established God's will, ending the Levitical system and making us holy.
