2 key characteristics make Jesus the superior priest to all others: His permanence and His perfection. Jesus is superior to all priests before Him because he continues forever. His sinlessness sets Him apart from those priests who had to first offer sacrifices for their own sins before doing so for the people. Because Jesus is the perfect and permanent priest, He is able to save us — and He saves us completely. Jesus is the superior priest, and He alone is worthy of all worship.
