Wherefore it behoved him to be made in all things like his brethren, that he might be a merciful and faithful high-priest, in things pertaining to God, to expiate the sins of the people.

Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the apostle and high-priest of our profession,

Having therefore a great high priest, that is passed thro' the heavens, Jesus the son of God,

let us hold fast our profession, For we have not an high-priest who cannot sympathize with our infirmities, but who was in all points tempted like as we are: yet without sin.

For every high priest being taken from among men, is appointed for men in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins,

So also Christ glorified not himself to be made an high priest, but he that said to him, Thou art my son, this day have I begotten thee.

Called of God an high priest, after the order of Melchisedek.

Whither Jesus our fore-runner is entered for us, made an high-priest for ever after the order of Melchisedek.

For such an high priest became us, holy, harmless, undefiled, separated from sinners, and made higher than the heavens:

Who needeth not daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifices, first for his own sins, then for those of the people: for this he did once for all, when he offered up himself.

For the law maketh men high priests that have infirmity; but the word of the oath which was since the law, maketh the son, who is consecrated for evermore.

The sum of what hath been spoken is, We have such an high priest, who is set down at the right-hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens,

For every high priest is ordained to offer up gifts and sacrifices; whence it was necessary, that this also should have somewhat to offer.

But into the second, only the high-priest once a year, not without blood, which he offereth for himself and the errors of the people:

But Christ being come, an high-priest of good things to come, through a greater and more perfect tabernacle,

Nor did he enter, that he might offer himself often (as the high-priest entered into the holy place every year with the blood of others.)

that is, his flesh, And having an high-priest over the house of God;

For the bodies of those beasts whose blood is brought into the holy place by the high priest for sin, are burnt without the camp.
