As we pick up where we left off in verse 4, we’ll see that the writer is not ready to move away from the topic of the High Priest. We saw 2 weeks ago that this was a much-needed position with very clear qualifications and duties, but only Jesus can fulfill them perfectly. So, the position is filled by Him alone. We will see precisely how this is so in the next verses of chapter 5 that Jesus is the only true candidate for the position of the THE High Priest.
(Hebrews 5:5-10)
