How do we know that Christ is better than the Old Testament sacrifices?

Answered in 1 source

Christ is the fulfillment of all Old Testament sacrifices, providing a superior and final atonement for sin.

In the book of Hebrews, Christ is presented as better than the Old Testament sacrifices and priesthood. The epistle emphasizes that He is the ultimate fulfillment of the sacrificial system, which was only a shadow of the realities in heaven. Hebrews 10:11-14 states that while priests stood daily offering sacrifices that could never fully take away sins, Christ offered Himself once and for all, and by doing so, He perfected for all time those who are being sanctified. This understanding reflects the truth that all previous systems were provisional, whereas Christ’s atonement is complete and final, ensuring that believers have eternal redemption.
