How do we know Christ's priesthood is superior to the Old Testament priesthood?

Answered in 1 source

Christ's priesthood is superior because He entered a perfect holy place with His own blood, completing the work of redemption once for all.

In Hebrews, the contrast between the Levitical priesthood and Christ's High Priesthood is made clear. The Old Testament priests had to repeatedly offer sacrifices, both for themselves and for the people, but Christ offered Himself once for all, achieving what the Old Testament sacrifices could only foreshadow. His priesthood is eternal and unchangeable, as He continuously intercedes for believers, making Him our sole mediator.
