“Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession.”
Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has ascended into heaven, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly to the faith we profess — the shift from judgment to grace is mediated by Jesus' identity and position: he is the great high priest who has passed into the heavens. His ascension establishes him in his priestly office, interceding on behalf of those who believe.
