From Animal Sacrifices to Kings: How Mediators in the Bible Point to Final Redemption Through Jesus

How can immoral people approach a holy and just God? Humanity's only hope of overcoming the barrier of sin is through Jesus, the one mediator between God and men (1 Timothy 2:5). This theme of mediation is at the core of the Old Testament. From animal sacrifices and altars to prophets, kings, and priests, each symbol conveys the authority, power, and presence of God. They are all, however, mere shadows of Christ, the one who will ultimately restore full access to the presence of God for everyone who believes in him.

In this rich, accessible study, Bible scholar Vern Poythress studies mediatorial figures throughout Scripture and explains how the recurring theme of mediation fits into the plan of redemption. He walks through several examples--including people, angels, and objects such as the ark of the covenant--showing how they all culminate in Christ, the final prophet, king, and priest. This concise study will give readers a better understanding of the Old Testament, the greatness of Jesus, and their own callings to channel the word and power of God.
