Our Gracious Heavenly Father Gave Us Priests

Today we begin chapter 5 in the Epistle to the Hebrews. From here all the way into chapter 10, this epistle speaks of Christ as our High Priest. The primary focus of this lengthy section is on the superiority of Christ to the Priests in the Old Testament. In the portion we are taking up today, We are shown that it is God who appointed priests for His people and who in these last days has appointed Christ to be our priest forever. Appointing priests is an expression of His unfathomable love.
