On His Heart

“Aaron shall carry the judgment of the sons of Israel over his heart before the LORD continually.” (Exodus 28:30b)

         The job of the high priest was to stand as advocate for the people.  He was to be the mediator between God and them.  Which meant the high priest had to have a heart for the people.  He needed to carry their judgment upon his heart as if it was his judgment, too.

         And that is exactly what Jesus does.  Jesus is the High Priest who carries our judgment upon His heart.  He bears our names upon His shoulders and our sins upon His cross.

Matthew 4:4 #Biblebites
