2 Sides of the Judgment

"No New Testament book develops so completely the post-­Resurrection ministry of Christ as does Hebrews.

Christ’s in­tercession for His people is a part of Christ’s better ministry as compared with that of Old Testament priests, even as His sac­rifice was better than the multiple cultic sacrifices.


1) Examina­tion of the records (Hebrews 7:10) is only one side of the judg­ment.
2) The other is the intercession, or advocacy, of Christ (1 Tim. 2:5; 1 John 2:1). Christ is there in the presence of God on behalf of His people (Heb. 9:24), where He is able to fully save, for He ever lives to intercede (Heb. 7:25)." NormanGulley
For he of whom these things are spoken pertaineth to another tribe,
of which no man gave attendance at the altar.
