Jesus Christ is the only mediator, the one who lays a hand on each side (Job 9:33), between God and Man (1 Tim 2:5), mediating a better covenant than that found in the Law (Heb 8:6; Heb 12:24) which was mediated by Moses (Gal 3:19; Heb. 3:2–5). He has attained this exalted position by means of His full status as man (Heb. 2:17, 18; 4:15, 16), His authority by the Father (Matt. 28:18; John 5:22-27) and His atonement (Eph 2:13-18; Heb 9:15).
Of course, more can be inferred by His role as mediator throughout Scripture (as in his priestly work, his propitiatory work, his work in eternity past and the future glory)but I sought to look only at the direct references to his role as Mediator.
