The Book of Hebrews was written to encourage Jewish Christians who were facing hardship and persecution. This powerful letter shows how Jesus is superior to everything in the Old Testament system – better than the prophets, angels, Moses, and the priests. Hebrews presents Jesus as our perfect High Priest who offered Himself as the ultimate sacrifice, once and for all. Unlike the temple priests who had to make offerings repeatedly, Jesus’ sacrifice was complete and eternal. The author retells Israel’s wilderness journey as a warning not to rebel and miss God’s promised rest.
These devotionals from Hebrews will help you understand Jesus’ perfect work on your behalf and inspire you to remain faithful despite life’s challenges, following the examples of those who lived by faith before us.
