The Purification of Sins

A key point of the Letter to Hebrews is the victory of the Son on behalf of his people, and his exalted position at the “ right hand ” of God as their High Priest “ after the order of Melchizedek .” He alone secured what none of his predecessors did or could. Through his self-sacrificial death, he “ achieved the purification of sins ,” then he “ sat down ” in the “ true and greater Tabernacle ” in God’s very presence where now he intercedes for his saints.
