Hebrews 7:15-28 - Another Priest, Like Melchizedek
15 And it is yet far more evident; if, according to the likeness of Melchizedek, there arises another Priest, 16 Who hath been made Priest, not according to a law of a carnal commandment, but according to the power of an endless life; 17 for it is testified of Him, "Thou art a Priest forever according to the rank of Melchizedek."
18 For there is verily an annulling of a previous commandment, on account of its weakness and unprofitableness 19 (for the law perfected nothing), and a bringing in of a better hope, through which we draw near to God.
20 And inasmuch as it was not without the taking of an oath 21 (for they, indeed, have been made priests without an oath; but He with an oath through Him Who said to Him, "The Lord swore, and will not repent, Thou art a Priest forever");
22 by so much also hath Jesus become the surety of a better covenant.
23 And they, indeed, have been made priests many in number, because by death they are hindered from continuing; 24 but He, because of His abiding forever, hath His priesthood unchangeable. 25 Whence also He is able to save completely those who come to God through Him, since He is ever living to intercede in their behalf.
26 For such a High Priest was befitting us, holy, harmless, undefiled, separated from sinners, and made higher than the heavens; 27 Who hath no necessity daily, as the high priests, to offer up sacrifices, first for his own sins, and then for those of the people (for this He did once for all, when He offered up Himself); 28 for the law constitutes men high priests who have infirmity, but the word of the oath, which was after the law, constitutes the Son perfected forever.
