The preacher summarizes what has been discussed so far, calling it “the main point of what has been said” (1). He explains how Jesus executes his priesthood by focusing on four main aspects: 1. The place where he performs as priest; 2. The sanctuary where the sacrifice takes place; 3. The sacrifice itself; and 4. The new covenant that the sacrifice establishes. His argument depends on interpreting the Scriptures through eyes illuminated by faith.
