The events related to the priesthood of Jesus were The sacrificial death of Jesus and his offering of his blood as an atonement for sin. Even Matthew could talk about the other details, they are not related to the tasks of a priest. The priests in the ancient Israel gave to God sacrifices of animals and they entered the blood in the tabernacle as something holy for atonement. These were all foreshadowed events that the messiah accomplished perfectly
