Questions for Further Study or Group Discussion:
- Read Hebrews 5:1-10. What do we learn about the human priesthood from verses 1-4? Why should a priest be gentle? Why might a priest (or any Christian) not be gentle?
- Why does the author speak about the human priesthood? What does he want to establish?
- What do we learn about Christ’s priesthood from verses 5-10? Is Jesus able to deal gently with people? How so?
- Why do we need a priest? Why is Jesus the perfect and only priest for us? What comfort do we receive from the priesthood of Christ?
- What kind of substitutes do we seek to the priesthood of Christ?
