Isa 22 refers to Christ the king!
The veil referred to that fact that heaven was closed not to an end to ordained ministerial priesthood
Ministerial priesthood: “apostles & their successors, and those they ordain” “low priests” under the authority of Christ the “high priest”!
With priestly ministry:
Mk 3:14 “ordained”
Matt 22:14 Jn 15:16 “chosen” “ordained”
Jn 20:21 “sent by Christ with His authority”
Jn 20:23 “power to forgive sins”
Acts 1:8 “anointing with power”
acts 1:15-26 “ministry / bishop”
Acts 2:38-39 “administered sacraments”
acts 14:23 “ordained”
Acts 16:4 “ordained “
Rom 15:16 “minister / sanctify”
1 cor 9:14 “ordained”
1 Tim 2:7 “ordained”
1 Tim 3:1-2 “bishop”
1 Tim 4:14 “priest” “priestly ministry”
Phil 1:1 “bishops deacons”
James 5:14 “anointing with oil”
The ministerial priesthood acts in “the person of Christ” so it is Christ who acts thru them vicariously.
2 cor 2:10 Jn 15:5 eph 5:24

So, what do we make of this? What significance does this torn veil have for us today? Above all, the tearing of the veil at the moment of Jesus’ death dramatically symbolized that His sacrifice, the shedding of His own blood, was a sufficient atonement for sins. It signified that now the way into the Holy of Holies was open for all people, for all time, both Jew and Gentile.
When Jesus died, the veil was torn, and God moved out of that place never again to dwell in a temple made with human hands (Acts 17:24). God was through with that temple and its religious system, and the temple and Jerusalem were left “desolate” (destroyed by the Romans) in A.D. 70, just as Jesus prophesied in Luke 13:35. As long as the temple stood, it signified the continuation of the Old Covenant. Hebrews 9:8-9 refers to the age that was passing away as the new covenant was being established (Hebrews 8:13). Also Eph 2: 1 -15 says old law done away with even the commandments. we no longer need any of the old law God will write in our hearts laws and commandments for us to follow. And Matt 23 shows do not call church leaders Father or Rabbi and that means do not call apostles Father or Rabbi imo
the apostles were appointed to preach and teach the New Covenant that in Eph 2 the old covenant was done away with
Is Jesus high priest?
The apostles have jurisdictional authority in the new covenant the kingdom Lk 22:29
Christ is the Head of the church, not Peter.
I agree but they are not to be called Rabbi or Father.
Yes Jesus is our high priest and our savior and our only Rabbi.
I did not say that, christ said s the head of the church, but He ascended to heaven and appointed Peter head in His place to administer the kingdom
Lk 22:29 Isa 22:21-22 Matt 16:18-19 and the apostles in union with Peter Matt 18:18 eph 2:20
Thanks
Isa 22:21-22 says he is called father!
Then who are his low priests?
The New covenant done away with old covenant traditions rules regulations and laws
Calling some one priests is ok calling priests teachers preachers pastors wise men seers are not to be called Rabbi or Father.

Calling priests "father" in the sense of addressing a priest as father is not wrong.
Saying it is wrong based on Mt 23:9 is the fallacy of equivocation.
Heb 9:10
Christ reformed the mosaic covenant into the new so there are many similarities
We are supposed to be instructed
Lk 1:4
Matt 28:19
Lk 10:16
Jn 20:21
Acts 8:31
Titus 1:9
Colossians 2:7
Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught…
