Read Hebrews 7

Reflect on these questions

What stood out to you most after reading this chapter in the Bible?
Hebrews 7 has a lot to say about a mysterious man named Melchizadek. Melchizadek, whose name means “King of Righteousness,” appears to bless Abraham in Genesis 14 - and then is never seen or heard from again. It has been proposed by theologians that Melchizadek was actually Jesus, appearing in a “Christophany” - a bodily appearance of Christ prior to His birth. He may have also simply been a mysterious man who was used and annointed by God. Who do you think Melchizadek was, and why?
Hebrews 7:22 summarizes the scriptures that precede it, and calls Jesus the guarantor of a better covenant. In what way is the New Covenant that we have in Jesus better than the Old Covenant, given through Moses?

Hebrews 7:25 invites us to draw near to God through Jesus Christ. Given the incredible grace we’ve received through Jesus, and the unprecedented access we have to God, how will you draw near to God this week?
