Jesus the Great High Priest

14 Since then we have a great ^khigh priest who has passed ^lthrough the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us ^mhold fast our ⁿconfession. 15 For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our ^oweaknesses, but one who ^pin every respect has been ^qtempted as we are, yet ^rwithout sin. 16 Let us then with ^sconfidence ^tdraw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.
