Hebrews 7:1-21
Melchizedek| Superior Priesthood of Christ
- Melchizedek (1-3) What do we know about Melchizedek? What is the relevance of the ‘order of Melchizedek’? Could Melchizedek be Jesus?
- Melchizedek Versus Aaronic Priesthood (4-10): Why is Melchizedek greater than Abraham? How was the Aaronic priesthood established? What was the role of priests? How is Melchizedek superior to Aaronic Priesthood?
- Perfect Priesthood of Christ (11-21): Why was Levitical priesthood weak and unprofitable? In what way is law useful? Why must the law be changed? How is the priesthood of Christ superior making Christ the perfect Great High priest? What is our role today in the context of priesthood?
