The answer
The purpose of priesthood is to officiate the sacraments and to instruct and edify the people, as St Paul writes to the Hebrews: “For every priest taken from among men is appointed for men in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins... and no man takes this honour to himself, but he who is called by God, as Aaron was” (1:4).
