Yom Kippur and the Book of Hebrews: How to live in the assurance of Atonement

An oil palette knife style painting shows a dramatic chasm between shadowy figures holding Torah scrolls on the left and hopeful, illuminated people on the right. At the center, a radiant robed figure with outstretched arms, representing Yeshua as High Priest, forms a living bridge across the gulf. Golden light radiates from him toward a glowing temple in the background, symbolizing divine presence. Overlaid text reads: “Yom Kippur & Book of Hebrews – How to live in the assurance of Atonement.”

This study explores Yom Kippur and the book of Hebrews, focusing on why atonement matters and how Yeshua (Jesus), as the ultimate High Priest, bridges the gap between Heaven and humanity. We dive into the purpose of the Torah, the meaning of true trust and rest, and how the New Covenant transforms us from the inside out. The conversation invites us to move from fear of judgment to confidence in approaching God, letting go of shame and embracing the assurance found in God’s presence and promises.

A memorial of Messiah: Heaven’s conscience cleaner (Leviticus 16; Hebrews 1–10)

Yom Kippur: A memorial of Messiah, Heaven's conscience cleaner (Leviticus 16; Hebrews 1-10). A robed figure in a white robe carries away a red robe over his left shoulder.

The prophet Yokhanan (John the Baptizer) said of Yeshua (Jesus), “Behold, the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!”(John 1:29 NASB 1995). This study explores Hebrews 1–10, a thorough explanation of what Heaven is teaching and reminding us about in יוֹם הַכִּפֻּרִים Yom haKippurim (Yom Kippur, Day of Atonement), that it is an annual memorial of Yeshua as the ultimate high priest of Heaven to take away our guilt and allow us to go confidently to God.

Leviticus 16; Hebrews 1–10: Heaven’s High Priest is ‘exact representation of His nature’

Forgetting that the high point of God’s calendar — יום הכפרים Yom haKippurim (Day of Atonement) — is all about the work of the High Priest and not of the congregant leaves one with the impossible, “terrifying” task of being his own sin sacrifice (Heb. 10:26–27). This study takes a whirlwind tour of the Letter to the Hebrews and what it tells us how Yeshua haMashiakh (Jesus the Christ) is the embodiment of the lessons and message of the “Day of Coverings.”
