And Melchise-dek, king of Salem, bringing forth bread and wine: and he is priest of the most high God. And he will bless him, and will say, Blessed be Abram of the most high God, possessing the heavens and the earth. read more. And praised be the most high God who delivered thine oppressors into thy hand; and he will give him of the tenth of all.

Jehovah sware and he will not lament, Thou a priest forever according to the manner of Melchizedeck.

And the third day was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there: And Jesus was also called, and his disciples, to the wedding. read more. And wine having failed, the mother of Jesus says to him, They have no wine. And Jesus says to her, What to me and thee, woman mine hour comes not yet. His mother says to the servants, Whatever he says to you, do. And six stone water-buckets were placed there, according to the purification of the Jews, containing each two or three measures. Jesus says to them, Fill the water-buckets with water. And they filled them even up over. And he says to them, Draw now, and carry to the superintendent of the feast. And they carried. And when the superintendent of the feast tasted the wine having been water, and knew not whence it is: (and the servants knew, having drawn the water;) the superintendent calls the bridegroom, And says to him, Every man sets good wine first; and when they be intoxicated, then inferior: thou hast kept the good wine till now.

I am the living bread which having come down from heaven: if any one eat of this bread, he shall live forever: and also the bread which I shall give is my flesh, which I shall give for the life of the world.

And also in another he says, Thou a priest forever according to the order of Melchisedec.

Addressed by God the chief priest according to the order of Melchisedec.

Where the forerunner, Jesus, went in for us, according to the order of Melchisedec, being a high priest forever.

For this Melchisedec, king of Salem, priest of the most high God, having met Abraham returning from the cutting off of the kings, and praised him; To whom also Abraham divided a tenth from all; (first truly interpreted King of justice, and then also King of Salem, which is, King of peace; read more. Without father, without mother, of unknown origin, neither having beginning of days, nor end of life; and likened to the Son of God;) remains a priest perpetually. And behold how great this one, to whom also Abraham the patriarch gave the tenth of the first fruits. And they truly of the sons of Levi, receiving the office of priest, have a command to take a tenth part from the people according to the law, that is, from their brethren, although having come out of the loins of Abraham: And he not having his descent traced from them received a tenth from Abraham, and praised him having the promises. And without all controversy the less is praised of the better. And here truly dying men receive tenths; but there he, bearing witness that he lives. And as the word says, through Abraham, also Levi, receiving tenths, has paid a tenth. For yet was he in his father's loins, when Melchisedec met him. If truly therefore completion were by the Levitical priesthood, (for the people received legislation by it,) what further need according to the order of Melchisedec for another priest to be raised, and not according to the order of Aaron? For the priesthood being transferred, of necessity also is a transposition of law. For he of whom these things are said partook of another tribe, of which none held to the altar. For it is manifest that our Lord has sprung out of Judah; to which tribe Moses spake nothing of the priesthood. And it is yet more abundantly manifest: that according to the resemblance of Melchisedec has another priest risen, Who according to the law of a fleshly command was not born, but according to the power of an indestructible life. For he testifies, Thou a priest forever, according to the order of Melchisedec. For there is truly an annulling of the command going before by its weakness and unprofitableness. (For the law completed nothing,) but the bringing in of a better hope; by which we draw near to God. And as much as not without sacrifice sanctioned by solemn oath: (For they truly without sacrifice sanctioned by solemn oath became priests; but he with the sacrifice sanctioned by solemn oath by him, saying to him, The Lord sware, and will not repent, Thou priest forever, according to the order of Melchisedec:)
