At these last days spake to us in the Son, whom he set heir of all things, by whom also he made the times;

Who being the brightness of glory, and the figure of his foundation, and bearing all things by the word of his power, having made by himself the purification of our sins, he sat down on the right hand of the Majesty among the highest ones;

How shall we escape, having neglected such great salvation; which at the beginning taken to be spoken by the Lord, by them having heard was made firm to us;

But we see Jesus, made some little while less than angels by the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; so that by the grace of God he should taste of death for all.

Since therefore the young children participated in flesh and blood, he also likewise participated with them; that by death he might leave unemployed him having the strength of death, that is, the devil;

Wherefore in all things it was necessary to be made like to the brethren, that he might be a merciful and faithful chief priest in things towards God, in order to propitiate for the sin of the people.

Faithful to him having made him, as also Moses in his whole house.

That by two unalterable deeds, in which it is impossible for God to deceive we might have a strong consolation, taking refuge in holding firmly the hope set before:

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;

For yet was he in his father's loins, when Melchisedec met him.

For every chief priest is appointed to bring in gifts and sacrifices also: wherefore it is necessary also for this to have something which he might bring.

Not according to the covenant which I made to their fathers in the day of my taking their hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; for they remained not in my covenant, and I heeded them not, says the Lord.

In saying new, he has made the first old. And that made old and becoming weak is near destruction.

This the Holy Spirit designating, the way of the holies had not yet been made manifest, the first tent yet having a standing:

And Christ being present, a chief priest of good things about to be, by a greater and more perfect tent, not made with hands, that is; not of this creation;

And for this he is mediator of a new covenant, that death having been, for redemption of the transgressions for the first covenant, the called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.

For Christ came not into the holy places made with hands, the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to be shown clearly to the face of God for us:

Then he said, Behold, I am here to do, O God, thy will. He takes away the first, that he might set up the second.

For ye have need of patience, that, having done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.

By faith Joseph, dying, made mention of the departure of the sons of Israel: and charged concerning his bones.

Women received their dead from rising up: and others were beaten, not receiving redemption; that they might attain a better resurrection.

And so dreadful was that being made to appear, Moses said, I am terrified and trembling:)

And the Yet once more, makes manifest the transferring the things shaken, as of things made, that the things not being shaken might remain.

Wherefore we receiving a kingdom unmoved; we should have grace by which we might serve God acceptably, with reverence and circumspection:

Remember them guiding you, who spake to you the word of God: of whom, observing narrowly the issue of the mode of life, imitate the faith:

Wherefore also Jesus, that he might consecrate the people by his own blood, suffered without the camp.

Believe them guiding you, and yield: (for they watch vigilantly for your souls, as going to return the word.) that with joy they might do this, and not lamenting: for this unprofitable for you.

And I beseech the more abundantly to do this, that I might the more speedily be restored to you.
