Here’s an excerpt from the blog post.
First, Christ has obtained a more excellent ministry than the priests of the Old Testament.
Second, Christ has established a better covenant (one based on grace rather than works).
Third, Christ operates on better promises than those priests in the line of Aaron.
These three things are of eternal significance because we continue to have false, or maybe just ignorant, teachers who still try to hold up the priesthood of Aaron, the covenant through Moses, and the promises made to Abraham as glorious things we should still cling to. However, "In speaking of a new covenant, he makes the first one obsolete." Christ is superior in every way to the things of the Old Testament because the OT things were only put in place to point to and reveal Christ. As we saw in Colossians and will here in Hebrews, the things of the Old Testament are merely shadows pointing to the truth of Jesus. I would also have you read the text below from 2 Corinthians again.
