Hebrews 5:1-11 (view passage online)
This sermon introduces Jesus as our Great High Priest from Hebrews 5, showing how He perfectly fulfills the necessary qualifications of the office. Because He became human and learned obedience through suffering, He can sympathize with our weaknesses and provide a complete, eternal salvation. His superior priesthood establishes a new and better covenant that makes the old system obsolete.
