Yom Kippur–Day of Atonement

Jesus is the fulfillment of Yom Kippur.

A Superior High Priest–>Hebrews 7:26

A. High Priests were often corrupt, needing purification.

B. Jesus was holy and sinless with no need for purification.

A Superior Ministry

A. Priests eventually died or failed, but Jesus is God and Eternal. He never fails, Hebrews 7:24.

B. Priests were appointed by man through heredity. Jesus was chosen and appointed by God.

C. Priests served one year as high priest and retired. Jesus is a High Priest forever, Hebrews 8:1.

D. Worldly temples are beautiful for a time, but Jesus serves in a Heavenly Temple that is permanent, Hebrews 8:2.

E. The former covenant was insufficient, but we have a better covenant in that God inhabits the hearts of the saved, Jeremiah 31:31, 33–>Hebrews 8:6.

A Superior Sacrifice

A. In Power–>the Old Testament was limited, but Christ’s sacrifice is limitless.

Isaac Watts wrote:

Not all the blood of beasts on Jewish altars slain

Could give the guilty conscience peace or wash away the stain;

But Christ, the Heavenly Lamb, takes all our sins away,

A sacrifice of nobler name and richer blood than they!

B. In Simplicity

The Temple separated man from God, Hebrews 9:8-9. But Christ changed that–>Hebrews 10:19-22!
