Why is the sympathy of Jesus important for Christians?

Answered in 1 source

The sympathy of Jesus is crucial because He understands our struggles and empowers us with His grace (Hebrews 4:15-16).

The sympathy of Jesus is a profound comfort to believers, as He fully understands our human frailty. Unlike mere angels, who cannot grasp the full scope of our temptations and struggles, Christ was tempted in every way we are yet remained sinless (Hebrews 4:15). This means He not only comprehends our weaknesses but also provides the grace and strength needed to endure life's challenges. His empathy is not detached; rather, it is rooted in His experiences with suffering, which enables Him to be a compassionate High Priest ready to aid those in distress.
