Messiah, the Perfect Sacrifice
10: 1-18
The writer to the Hebrews has made his case. God’s revelation in Yeshua is better to that given through Moshe. Jesus’ High Priesthood is better than that of the Levitical priesthood. The Dispensation of Grace that Messiah administers is better than the Dispensation of the Torah. As our High Priest, Christ ministers in the heavenly Tabernacle, while Isra’el’s priest ministered in an earthly Tabernacle, a mere copy and shadow of the true one. And the Lord’s sacrifice of Himself has accomplished what the blood of bulls and goats could never do. But like a good attorney, as the writer is about to move on to the lifestyle of the believer, he closes this section of the book by going over key points once again. If what we read in Hebrews 10:1-18 sounds familiar, it’s because it is familiar. But it’s also vital. And the writer wants to be sure there’s no mistake about the core truth’s he’s taught. After all, our life depends on them.249
