Scholars often explain Hebrews' relative silence regarding Jesus'
resurrection by emphasizing the author's appeal to Yom Kippur's two
key moments-the sacrificial slaughter and the high priest's
presentation of blood in the holy of holies-in his distinctive
portrayal of Jesus' death and heavenly exaltation. The writer's
depiction of Jesus as the high priest whose blood effected ultimate
atonement appears to be modeled upon these two moments. Such a
typology discourages discrete reflection on Jesus' resurrection.
Drawing on contemporary studies of Jewish sacrifice (which note
that blood represents life, not death), parallels in Jewish
apocalyptic literature, and fresh exegetical insights, this volume
demonstrates that Jesus' embodied, resurrected life is crucial for
the high-priestly Christology and sacrificial soteriology developed
in Hebrews.
