A Better High Priest | Hebrews 5

1. How would you describe the role of a priest in the Old Testament? How
important do you think they were to the Jewish people?

 

2. Why do you think it was important that the priests be sympathetic to the
weaknesses of the people? (verse 2)

 

 

3. Why couldn’t just anyone become a priest in the Old Testament? (verse 4)

 

 

 

4. What does it mean to you that Jesus took so much time to pray as He did
while He was on earth? (verse 7)

 

 

5. How do you think Jesus learned obedience through what He suffered? (verse
8)

 

6. What do you think is meant in verse 11, that the people had become “dull of
hearing”? How can we avoid the same thing?

 

 

7. How would you describe the difference between “milk and solid food”?
