How do we know Christ's priesthood is superior to Aaron's?

Answered in 2 sources

Christ's priesthood is superior because it offers perfect redemption once and for all, unlike Aaron's which required continual sacrifices.

The superiority of Christ's priesthood over Aaron's is established through the sufficiency and perfection of Christ's sacrifice. Hebrews 10:11-14 highlights that while the Levitical priests could never achieve true perfection through their repeated sacrifices, Christ, having offered Himself once for all, sat down at the right hand of God, signifying the completion of His redemptive work. Through His sacrifice, He purges our conscience from dead works, allowing believers to serve the living God (Hebrews 9:14). Furthermore, Christ's priesthood is established by God's oath, making it unchangeable and eternal (Hebrews 7:21).
