Hebrews 4:14-5:10 — Jesus the Great High Priest

Heb.4.14-5.10

¹⁴Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession. ¹⁵For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who has been tested in every respect as we are, yet without sin. ¹⁶Let us then draw near with boldness to the throne of grace, so that we may receive mercy and find grace for timely help .

Chapter 5

¹For every high priest, being taken from among men, is appointed on behalf of men in the things relating to God, in order that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins. ²He is able to deal gently with those who are ignorant and going astray, since he himself also is beset with weakness. ³And because of it he is obligated to offer for sins, just as for the people, so also for himself. ⁴And no one takes this honor for himself, but only one called by God, just as Aaron was. ⁵So also Christ did not glorify himself to become a high priest, but it was the one who said to him, “You are my Son; today I have begotten you.” ⁶As he also says in another place, “You are a priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek.” ⁷In the days of his flesh, having offered up prayers and supplications with loud cries and tears to the one able to save him from death, and having been heard because of his reverent submission , ⁸although he was a Son, he learned obedience from what he suffered. ⁹And having been perfected, he became the source of eternal salvation to all who obey him, ¹⁰having been designated by God a high priest according to the order of Melchizedek.
