I'm reading Hebrews and came across this commentary that really helped me see how amazing Jesus is.
"The author to the Hebrews calls Jesus the apostle and high priest of our confession. This is the only New Testament reference to Jesus as an apostle. The word literally means one who is sent forth. Jesus is the supreme ambassador of God. He came from God and all God's grace, mercy, and love were with him as the supreme ambassador. Jesus is also called the great high priest. The word high priest in Latin means bridge-builder. The priest is the mediator between man and God. He must speak to men for God and speak to God for men. Jesus is the perfect high priest since he is perfectly man and perfectly God. He alone can bridge the gulf between man and God and make it possible for us to have personal access to God."
