These verses again contrst the sacrifices of the Old Testament with Jesus’ most glorious sarifice. The high priest of the old covenant had to continually make sacrifices for the people These sacrifices served more to make the people aware of their sins than to bring lasting forgiveness.
In contrast, Jesus is both our sacrifice and our high priest. Only Jesus could have suffered death on the cross, risen from the tomb, and seated himself at the right hand of God Almighty. All of this, he did so that we could be made clean, so we could share in his glory for eternity.
Jesus is waiting for us. He is also in the process of turning his enemies into his footstool. What a glorious day when we will see these events through the eyes of eternity.
Lord we thank you for your eternal plan. We thank you for giving us a glimpse into the future through your Word so that we can face trials and hardships with confidence as we trust in your love and provision for us.
