A Tale of Two Mountains
We continue our series “Jesus is Better,” a study of the letter to the Hebrews. This letter is actually a written sermon to believers who were struggling with their faith. They were being tempted to go back to a life without Jesus, a life rooted in the unfulfilled promises and pictures of the Old Testament. The writer of this letter seeks to show them in many ways that Jesus is better, not only better than what they had before, but better than everything. The writer contrasts two mountains: Sinai and Zion. In a way these two mountains depict the difference between Law and Gospel, which we will explore this week
