We can gain a deeper appreciation of what Jesus does for us from this description of O.T. priests. Hebrews urges us to come to God in confidence because Jesus truly knows what it is like to be human: weak and tempted.
It sounds like a contradiction when we are told: ‘Let us therefore make every effort to enter that rest’ (Heb 4:11), but it is actually not, it is one of the keys to a fruitful, productive and stress-free life.
Jesus is far better than everything else we could possibly have. Incomparably better! So hold fast to him and don’t allow yourself to be pulled away by other attractions.
