'Order of Melchizedek' in the Bible

as also in another passage He says, "Thou art a priest for ever, belonging to the order of Melchizedek."

For God Himself addresses Him as a High Priest for ever, belonging to the order of Melchizedek.

Now if the crowning blessing was attainable by means of the Levitical priesthood--for as resting on this foundation the people received the Law, to which they are still subject-- what further need was there for a Priest of a different kind to be raised up belonging to the order of Melchizedek instead of being said to belong to the order of Aaron?

And this is still more abundantly clear when we read that it is as belonging to the order of Melchizedek that a priest of a different kind is to arise,

For the words are in evidence, "Thou art a priest for ever, belonging to the order of Melchizedek."
