The Priesthood of Christ...Know this FIRST

Know this first is the conclusion of this section of teaching on the Priesthood of Christ. The author of the Epistle to the Hebrews claims that Jesus is a priest. This is a unique and original claim since no other New Testament document calls him a priest, and none of Jesus' contemporaries apparently thought of him in this manner.

Priests belong to an order of priesthood and are associated with a sanctuary. The author of this epistle appeals to the Aaronic priesthood as the very highest expression of professional priesthood that he knows. If any priesthood could have been expected to fulfill successfully the functions of priesthood, this priesthood should have been expected to do so in his judgment, for it was instituted by God himself. He uses this priesthood as a medium of comparison for the priesthood of Jesus, and because of the familiarity of his readers with it, as a means of explaining to them the nature of Jesus' priesthood.
