What does Hebrews say about Christ's priesthood?

Answered in 1 source

Hebrews emphasizes that Christ is the perfect high priest who offers Himself as the ultimate sacrifice for sin.

The book of Hebrews presents Christ as the far superior high priest compared to the Levitical priests of the Old Covenant. Unlike the human priests who were sinful and needed to make sacrifices for their own sins, Christ, as the sinless Son of God, offered Himself as the perfect and final sacrifice for sin. Hebrews 8:1-2 indicates that Christ serves as a minister in the true heavenly sanctuary, having completed His work of redemption by satisfying God’s justice through His sacrifice. As the high priest who sits at the right hand of God, His completed work guarantees the salvation of His people and their access to God.
