Priestly family were the Levites and within the Levites there were the Cohens who were the High Priests. The Priesthood is designed for 2 things 1) minister
to God 2) a conduit for blessing. God is Holy because He is completely unique and nothing compares with Him and Israel was to be living proof that an entire nation can dwell apart as holy. Num. 23:9 I see a people who live apart and do not consider themselves one of the nations. HEB 8:1 The point of what we are saying is this: We do have such a high priest, who sat down at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in heaven, 2 and who serves in the sanctuary, the true tabernacle set up by the Lord, not by man. HEB 4:14 Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has gone through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly to the faith we profess. 15 For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are--yet was without sin. 16 Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need. |
