May 2
Introduction
We learned yesterday that Jesus became “a high priest forever, in the priestly order of Melchizedek” (Hebrews 6:20), which is repeated in today’s reading (7:17) and quoted from Psalm 110:4. God sent Jesus to make a new agreement with God’s people. In it God makes a new promise that goes beyond the promises God gave to Moses and the people of Israel. The old agreement was based on the Law, but the new agreement is based on Christ’s sacrifice to take away sins.
Today’s Scripture: Hebrews 7:26a
Jesus, then, is the High Priest that meets our needs. He is holy; he has no fault or sin in him.
Today’s Reading
Hebrews 7:15-28
Reflect
In biblical times, priests made sacrifices as an act of thanksgiving and also to seek God’s forgiveness for the sins of the people. According to verses 20-28, what is the difference between the sacrifice Jesus offered and the ones offered by the priests and high priests of Israel? What does Jesus’s sacrifice mean to you?
Pray
Holy Jesus, you are the High Priest that meets our needs, and you have been made perfect forever. Thank you for the sacrifice you made so that I might receive forgiveness of my sins and eternal life with you. You save those who come to God through you because you live forever and plead with God for us. Amen.
Prayer Concern
Parish priests and pastors
Tomorrow’s Reading
