Welcome back to our study of the book of Hebrews, today we’ll begin chapter 8 and only zero in on verses 1 through 6. Let’s quickly recall what we discussed last week. In the second part of chapter 7, we saw that Jesus was likened to Melchizedek, the High Priest of God introduced in Genesis 14 whose ministry was presented as being endless. God purposely introduced this mysterious figure in the OT to prepare His people for the coming of His Son whose priestly order was going to be after Melchizedek. We also saw that perfection, God’s work of salvation couldn’t be made complete under the levitical priesthood because of the weakness of the law and the priests. Therefore the work of Jesus was essential and necessary for the completion of the redemptive purposes of God. Finally we saw that because His life is endless, Jesus has also replaced the levites. And there are many other reasons why He is the perfect High Priest- He sinless, unstained, separated from sinners, innocent and exalted above the heavens.
