Jesus Our Great High Priest
Manage episode 407637962 series 1100589
Andrew Baker | Hebrews 4:11-5:10; Leviticus 16; 2 Corinthians 12:9; John 16:33 — Under Old Testament Law, the High Priest acted as a mediator between man and God by making atoning sacrifices for the sins of Israel. But, as the writer to the Hebrews points out, this was only ever an imperfect and temporary construct, pointing us to the eternal and superior atonement made by Jesus: He alone knows the fulness of human weakness and yet did not sin. He alone mercifully provides the only cure for our sinful condition. And He alone overcame sin and death. Jesus is our Great High Priest.
