Hebrews 7:25-28 Mark 1:14-20
☀️ A.M. Hebrews 7:25-28
25 - And so, it is true {and a sure foundation/expectation} that he [high priest, Jesus] is able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through him, since he is always living to intercede for us. [“Intercede” - entygxánō - from en “in” - which intensifies tygxánō - to light upon, tygxánō means to strike and hit the bulls-eye, be spot on, it was used in classical Greek as the opposite of harmartia - to miss the mark, sin - by Lucian, Xenophon, Homer, etc. - biblehub dot com.]
{His purpose now, is bringing us to fully hitting the mark. Why is perfection necessary? - We “put on perfection” (1Cor.15, Heb.11:40, Mt.5:48, 1Jn.2:5) “at his coming” (1Cor. 15:23) thus immortality.. Because God iS Life, and “is Perfect”. An iron measure. This also means the ‘end’ result of this unavoidable contrast, is the best one possible. Greek word “tel” root of telescope, the “end-aim”. Note: prophecy is fulfilled as small scope and later full scope. Including the advents.}
26 For it’s indeed fitting that we should have such a high priest. One who is pure and sacred, holy, innocent, unstained or contaminated, separated from sinners, and exalted above the heavens. 27 He has no need, like the other (only human) high priests, to offer sacrifices every day, first for his own sins. And then for those of the people, since Jesus did this once, and for all, when he offered up himself. {Being the spotless lamb, not imperfect/entropic, which the Old Testament sacrifices portrayed the message - the priesthoods to appease, imo, the human psyche and conscience. Not God’s anger.. for HE “has subjected all to disobedience” to(?) get it over with, much quicker as a one and done?}
28 For the law appoints men in their weakness to serve as high priests, but the word of the oath, which came later than the law, appoints a perfect(ed) Son.
[Perfect(ed) - teleioó (tel-eioo) made complete, perfected, accomplished - to bring to an end, conclude.] {Everything (now) is prone to corruption. Except the Son, THE straight out from God - one - perfect, able to bring us/humanity to perfection, which (for believers) is consummated at his return.. and for the rest at the Rev.21:1-5 event, at close of GWT Judgment and Closure ‘Day’. Rev.21:5 is one of many verses where “all” has been translated into “all things”. I think due to disbelief and ancient ideas. Some think Apollos wrote Hebrews.}
🌙 P.M. Mark 1:14-20
14 - John (the baptist/baptizer) was arrested, and meanwhile Jesus came into Galilee, proclaiming the gospel of God, 15 saying, “The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand. Repent [metanoeó - meta and noieo - to think differently afterwards] and believe the gospel.” [Euaggelion - good news, gospel, good message.]
16 And passing alongside the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon (Peter) and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea, for they were fishermen. 17 And Jesus said to them, “Follow me. I’ll make you fishers of men.” {They had seen him announced, at the Jordan River, or at least fellow fishermen John and James did, one of the other gospel accounts says.}
18 They left their nets, immediately, and went with him. 19 And going on a little further, he saw James the son of Zebedee and John his brother, who were in their boat mending their nets. 20 And he called to them, and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired workers and followed him.
