How do we know Jesus' role as high priest is true?

Answered in 1 source

We know Jesus' role as high priest is true through His fulfillment of prophecy and His resurrection.

The certainty of Jesus' role as our high priest is anchored in the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecy and His victorious resurrection. Hebrews 5:1 emphasizes that every high priest is taken from among men, but Jesus is uniquely qualified as He is appointed by God without any sin. His death and resurrection serve as definitive proof of His acceptance and authority. When He rose from the dead, it validated not only His atoning sacrifice but also the promise that He intercedes for us before the Father. This provides believers with unwavering assurance that their sins are forgiven and that they possess Christ's righteousness, allowing them to approach God with confidence.
