But observe how great this man was, to whom even Abraham, the Patriarch, gave a tenth part of the spoils. Now those of the sons of Levi who are appointed to the priesthood, are authorized by the Law to take tithes of the people, that is, of their brothers, and that too, although these are descended from Abraham. But this man who had no Levitical genealogy actually took tithes of Abraham, and blessed him to whom the promises belong. Now it is beyond all controversy that the inferior is always blessed by the superior. Again it is mortal men who receive tithes in the one case; while in the other it is he of whom it is attested, "He lives." And even Levi, who is the receiver of tithes, so to speak, paid tithes through Abraham; for Levi was yet in the loins of his father, when Melchizedek met Abraham. Now if there were perfection through the Levitical priesthood, (and it was under it that the people received the Law) why was it still necessary for another kind of priest to arise, after the order of Melchizedek, instead of being reckoned according to the order of Aaron? For when the priesthood changes, of necessity the law also changes. He who is thus described belonged to another tribe, not one member of which has ever served at the altar. For it is evident that our Lord was descended from Judah, a tribe of which Moses said nothing concerning the priesthood. And this is yet more abundantly clear if, after the likeness of Melchizedek, there arises another Priest, who has become such, not according to the law of a transitory enactment, but according to the energy of an indissoluble life. For the words are in evidence, Thou art a priest forever after the order of Melchizedek.
