The early recipients of Hebrews, Alistair Begg explains, needed spiritual reassurance. Under the old covenant, people looked forward to a Great High Priest for their redemption. Those under the new covenant, meanwhile, were called to gaze back upon Jesus’ costly, once-and-for-all sacrifice. When we similarly anchor our hope in the person of Christ, we obtain the privilege of an eternal Priest who ever lives to intercede.
