From the Archives: Jesus Our High Priest


Distinguished theological article image about Jesus our great high priest in Hebrews: ancient open Gospel folio, temple curtain and sanctuary architecture, subtle priestly breastplate and incense motifs, cross suggested in warm light, antique engraving and old master realism, reverent classical study, burgundy gold charcoal parchment palette, no portrait of God, no readable text or logos.

The priesthood of Christ is not merely one image among many for salvation. Hebrews presents it as essential to understanding who Jesus is, what his sacrifice accomplished, and why Christians may draw near to God with confidence. This earlier essay follows the biblical movement from the Day of Atonement to Christ’s once-for-all sacrifice and continuing heavenly ministry.
