The High Priest was a central figure in the religious life of the Israelites, particularly in the context of the Tabernacle and later the Temple in Jerusalem. Biblical Origins and Appointment The office of the High Priest was established by God through Moses, with Aaron, the brother of Moses, being appointed as the first High Priest (<a href="/exodus/28.htm">Exodus 28:1</a>). The High Priest was to come from the tribe of Levi, specifically from the descendants of Aaron, as outlined in the book of Exodus: "Have your brother Aaron, with his sons, come to you from among the Israelites to serve Me as priests—Aaron and his sons Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar" (<a href="/exodus/28.htm">Exodus 28:1</a>). Duties and Responsibilities The High Priest had numerous duties, the most significant of which was performing the rituals on the Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur). On this day, the High Priest would enter the Holy of Holies, the innermost part of the Tabernacle or Temple, to offer sacrifices for the atonement of the sins of the people. <a href="/bsb/leviticus/16.htm">Leviticus 16</a> provides a detailed account of these duties: "He shall then slaughter the goat for the sin offering for the people and take its blood behind the veil. He is to do with that blood as he did with the bull’s blood: He is to sprinkle it against the mercy seat and in front of it" (<a href="/leviticus/16-15.htm">Leviticus 16:15</a>). The High Priest also wore special garments, which included the ephod, breastplate, robe, tunic, turban, and sash, each with symbolic significance (<a href="/exodus/28-4.htm">Exodus 28:4-39</a>). These garments were designed to reflect the holiness and dignity of the office. Symbolism and Typology The High Priest served as a type of Christ, the ultimate High Priest, who would offer Himself as the perfect sacrifice for the sins of humanity. The Epistle to the Hebrews in the New Testament elaborates on this typology, stating, "But when Christ came as high priest of the good things that have come, He went through the greater and more perfect tabernacle that is not made by hands, that is, not of this creation" (<a href="/hebrews/9-11.htm">Hebrews 9:11</a>). Historical Context Throughout Israel's history, the role of the High Priest evolved, especially during the Second Temple period. The High Priest became not only a religious leader but also a political figure, particularly under foreign rule. The Hasmonean dynasty, for example, combined the roles of king and High Priest, which was a departure from the original Levitical priesthood. Notable High Priests Several High Priests are mentioned in the Bible, each playing a role in Israel's history. Aaron, the first High Priest, is noted for his leadership during the Exodus. Eli, another High Priest, served during the time of Samuel and is known for his failure to restrain his sons (<a href="/1_samuel/2-12.htm">1 Samuel 2:12-17</a>). Caiaphas, the High Priest during the time of Jesus, played a pivotal role in the events leading to the crucifixion (<a href="/john/18-13.htm">John 18:13-14</a>). Conclusion The High Priest was a vital figure in the religious and communal life of Israel, serving as a mediator between God and His people. The office foreshadowed the coming of Jesus Christ, the ultimate High Priest, who fulfilled the sacrificial system through His death and resurrection, providing eternal atonement for sin.<a name="isb" id="isb"></a><div class="vheading2">International Standard Bible Encyclopedia</div>High PriestHIGH PRIESTSee <a href="../p/priest.htm">PRIEST, HIGH</a>.<a name="grk" id="grk"></a><div class="vheading2">Greek</div><a href="/greek/749.htm">749. archiereus -- high priest</a> ... high priest.
