Your priest were not among them in the Upper Room. Your priest were not breathed on.John 20:22-23
22 And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit. 23 If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained.”
Just for the record Mark 2:7 tells us only God can forgive sin....What was given is the authority what God does when one rejects or accepts Jesus.
