Jesus is the High Priest and He was celibate.

He’s in your New Testament, right?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Is there a scripture that specifically states that Jesus was celibate, or are the scriptures merely silent on that point?

With regard to “high priest”, specifically where does it use that term with regard to Jesus?

Personally, if the scriptures are silent on a particular point then I will be as well, and I will refrain from specious speculation.

1st Timothy 2:5 For there is one mediator between God and man, the man Christ Jesus, not a Pope, Not Mary, Not a Priest.
