Hebrews 1:1-4
Hebrews 1:1-4
“We do not have an altar here, because we do not perform sacrifices. We
have a table of remembrance…The significance of a seated high priest is
amplified in subsequent chapters, especially in vv. 10:11–14, where Christ
is contrasted with the Aaronic priests, who remained standing because their
sacrificial service was never finished. By contrast, Christ made
purification for sin through his once-for-all death on the cross. The
forgiveness he has won is permanent. His seated position shows that his
work is finished. Church, Christ is now seated at the right hand of God
because his work is done.”
