in these last days hath spoken to us by a Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;

And again, when he introduces the first-begotten into the world, he saith, "Let all the angels of God also worship him."

Seeing therefore that the children have partaken of flesh and blood, he also himself, in exact resemblance, partook of the same, that by death he might destroy him who held the power of death, that is, the devil;

who was faithful to him who appointed him, as Moses also was in all his house.

For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath rested from his works, as God did from his own.

And on this account he ought, as for the people, so also for himself, to offer sacrifice for sins.

So Christ also did not himself assume the glory to become high-priest, but he [gave it] who spake to him, "Thou art my Son; I have this day begotten thee."

As he saith also in another passage, "Thou art priest forever after the order of Melchisedec;"

to whom also Abraham gave a tenth share of all the spoil: being, as the interpretation of his name imports, first, King of righteousness, and then also King of Salem, that is, King of peace:

For they indeed of the sons of Levi, who are admitted to priesthood, have an order to receive tithes from the people according to the law, that is, of their brethren, though also sprung from the loins of Abraham.

For the priesthood being transferred, there is of necessity an abrogation of the law also.

Wherefore also he is able to save to the uttermost those who come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.

For every high-priest is appointed to offer both gifts and sacrifices: wherefore it is necessary that this person also have somewhat to offer.

THEN also the first tabernacle had indeed regulations for the divine service, and a sanctuary furnished.

Wherefore also that first testament was not consecrated without blood.

And the tabernacle also, and all the vessels employed in the divine service, he in like manner sprinkled with blood.

Now the Holy Ghost also beareth this testimony to us: for after declaring before,

By faith also that very Sarah, who was barren, received ability for the conception of seed, and past the usual time of life brought forth a child, because she accounted that he who promised it, would be true to his promise.

reasoning that God was able to raise him up again, even from the dead; from whence also figuratively he had received him.

THEREFORE also seeing we have so great a cloud of witnesses surrounding us, laying aside every weight, and that most easily besetting sin, let us run with patience the race lying before us,

whose voice then shook the earth, but now he hath promised, saying, "Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also the heaven."

Remember those who are in chains, as in chains with them; and those who are suffering afflictions, as being yourselves also in the body.

Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people with his own blood, suffered without the gate.
