How do we know that Jesus is our only Priest?

Answered in 1 source

Scripture reveals Jesus as our sole Priest through typology, exemplified in Aaron's rod which alone budded among the twelve.

The typology of Aaron's rod pointing to Christ is significant in showing that Jesus is the one true Priest accepted by God. While eleven rods remained lifeless, Aaron's rod uniquely bloomed, symbolizing Jesus' sacrificial role as our Mediator (Hebrews 7:24). This divine selection underscores that no other mediator can stand in the presence of God on our behalf; His priesthood is unchangeable and eternal. In Hebrews 10:12, we learn that Christ offered Himself once for all for our redemption, affirming His unique intercessory role before the Father, distinct from all others who would claim the title.
