and deliver those who through fear of death were all their life-time subject to bondage.

For God is not unjust to forget your work and labor of love, which ye have shewn to his name, by having ministred to the saints, and yet ministring.

without father, without mother, without genealogy, having neither beginning of days recorded, nor end of life, but resembling the Son of God, remaineth a priest continually.

And those indeed of the sons of Levi, who receive the priesthood, have a commandment according to the law to take tithes of the people, that is, of their brethren, though they came out of the loins of Abraham:

And (as one may say) even Levi, who receiveth tithes, paid tithes in Abraham:

who is made not according to the law of a temporary command, but according to the power of an endless life.

(for He is faithful who hath promised) and let us observe each other to the incitement of love and good works:

and the just shall live by faith, but if any draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him.

Women received their dead raised to life again; and others were tortured to death, not accepting deliverance, that they might obtain a better resurrection.

Now if we had fathers of our flesh, who corrected us, and we gave them reverence; shall we not much more be in subjection to the Father of spirits, and live?

Let brotherly love continue.
