Study Note
The declaration that 'we have a great high priest that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God' grounds the exhortation to 'hold fast our confession' in the superiority of Christ's heavenly high-priestly ministry. The 'passing through the heavens' (dielelyluthota tous ouranous) alludes to the high priest's annual passage through the Temple's veil into the Most Holy Place — but Christ passes into the ultimate heavenly sanctuary, not a terrestrial copy. The title 'Jesus the Son of God' holds together the human name (Jesus) and the divine identity (Son of God) with deliberate Christological precision. The verse prepares for 4:15-16's invitation to approach the throne of grace — the high priest's ascent makes the throne accessible to all worshippers, not just the Aaronic priesthood.
