Things to look for as you read this week:

  Last week's answers:

• Hebrews tells us that Jesus is a priest along the lines of what mysterious Old Testament figure from the time of Abraham? (Melchizedek—Hebrews 6 and 7)
• In Isaiah, God's Word is likened to rain and snow. Why? (His Word achieves the purpose for which He sent it, just as the rain and snow water the earth and its crops.—Isaiah 55:10-11)
• According to Hebrews, what cannot possibly take away sin? (The blood of sacrificial bulls and goats—Hebrews 10:4)
