Hebrews 10:1-18 Christ Sits Down

From the opening verses of Hebrews, the author has been explaining the superiority of Christ from a number of angles. His argument has built gradually but relentlessly to a culmination of Jesus instituting the New Covenant. A Covenant with a single, sufficient, completed sacrifice.

 

Unlike the priest who is still standing with work left to do, Christ is seated at the right hand of God -- the sacrificial work is done.
