- Christ, the innocent High Priest (Ex 28:36-37)
Heb 4:15, 1 Jn 3:5, 1 Pt 2:22-23, 2 Cor 5:21
In the Old Testament, God had the high priest put on the breastplate with the words “Holiness of the Lord” written on it. (Ex 28:36-37)
Ex 28:36 And thou shalt make a plate of pure gold, and grave upon it, like the engravings of a signet, Holiness To The Lord.
37 And thou shalt put it on a blue lace, that it may be upon the mitre; upon the forefront of the mitre it shall be.
Jesus is the sinless high priest. (Heb 4:15, 1 John 3:5, 1 Pet 2:22, 2 Cor 5:21)
Heb 4:15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.
1 John 3:5 nd ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin.
1 Pet 2:22 ho did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth:
2 Cor 5:21 or he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.
