Why is Christ’s Priesthood Greater Than Aaron’s? (Hebrews 7:11-22)

Why Does Christ’s Priesthood Replace Aaron’s? — Hebrews 7:11–22

In this lesson, we examine why the Levitical priesthood could not bring spiritual perfection and why another priesthood was necessary. Jesus did not become priest through physical descent from Aaron; He arose from the tribe of Judah and was appointed according to the order of Melchizedek, “according to the power of an indestructible life.”

Because the priesthood changed, the law governing that priesthood also changed. The former system maintained distance from God, but Christ introduces a better hope through which believers draw near. His priesthood was established by the oath of God, and Jesus Himself has become the guarantee of a better covenant. The central message is clear: do not return to the lesser when God has provided the greater.
