In this episode Caleb is joined by world renowned biblical theologian T. Desmond Alexander (PhD, The Queen's University of Belfast) Senior Lecturer in Biblical Studies at Union Theological College to discuss the biblical-theological theme of Jesus as high priest and mediator via Alexander's recent book on the topic Face to Face with God: A Biblical Theology of Christ as Priest and Mediator. Together, they tackle questions like: How is Jesus like, but also greater than Moses, the temple, and the sacrificial system? How does this theme relate to Christ's ascension? His present ministry in heaven? To the Christian life? And more.
