who being the brightness of his glory, and the character of his person, and holding up all things by the word of his power, having made purgation of the sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;

But we see Jesus humiliated somewhat in comparison with the angels, having been crowned with glory and honor on account of the suffering of death, in order that by the grace of God he might taste death for every one.

Then since the children have inherited blood and flesh, he likewise also received the same, in order that through death he might set at nought him who has the power of death, that is, the devil;

and might reconcile them whosoever were subject to bondage all their life through the fear of death.

Therefore he ought in all things to be made like unto his brethren, in order that he might be a merciful and faithful High Priest in things appertaining to God, to the end that he may atone for the sins of the people.

for we have been made partakers of Christ, if indeed we may hold fast the beginning of confidence firm unto the end.

and having been made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation to all those who obey him;

For it is impossible that those having been once enlightened, and tasted the heavenly gift, and have been made partakers of the Holy Ghost,

whither Jesus the forerunner has entered in our behalf, having been made a high priest forever after the order of Melchizedek.

For this Melchizedek, the king of Salem, priest of the Most High God, the one having met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings, and blessed him,

without father, without mother, without genealogy, having neither beginning of days nor end of life, but being made like unto the Son of God, he abides a priest continually.

For he was still in the loins of his father, when Melchizedek met him.

who was not made after the law of a carnal commandment, but after the power of an endless life.

for the law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better hope, by which we draw nigh unto God.

And in as much as it is without an oath, for the priests were made without an oath;

insomuch that Jesus has also been made the mediator of a better covenant.

And indeed many have been made priests, because they were prohibited by death from continuing:

For the law institutes men high priests, having infirmity; but the word of the oath, which is after the law, the Son, having been made perfect forever.

not according to the covenant which I made with their fathers, in the day that I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they abode not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, says the Lord.

In that he calls it new, he has made the first one old; but that which is old and antiquated is nigh unto vanishing.

For the first tabernacle was made; in which there were candlesticks, and the table, and shew-bread; which is called, Holy.

the Holy Spirit showing this, the way of the holies has not yet been made manifest, the first tabernacle yet standing:

But Christ being a high priest of good things to come, through a greater and a more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is, not of this world;

For Christ did not come into the sanctuaries made with hands, the pattern of the true; but into heaven itself, now to be made manifest unto the face of God in our behalf:

since it behooved him frequently to suffer from the foundation of the world: but now in the end of the ages he has been made manifest unto the removal of sin through the sacrifice of himself.

finally waiting until his enemies may be made the foot-stool of his feet.

By faith we understand that the worlds were created by the word of God, and that which was seen was not made from things which are manifest.

By faith Joseph, dying, made mention concerning the exodus of the children of Israel; and commanded concerning his own bones.

By faith he instituted the passover, and the sprinkling of blood, in order that the one destroying the first-born might not touch them.

women receive their dead from a resurrection: some were tortured, not accepting deliverance; in order that they might receive a better resurrection:

God having reserved something better for us, that they might not be made perfect apart from us.

For they indeed for a few days were accustomed to chastise us according to that which seemed right to them; but he made unto our profit, in order that we might partake his holiness.

to the whole company, and to the church of the first-born, who have been written in the heavens, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of justified people who have been made perfect,

Therefore indeed Jesus, in order that he might sanctify the people by his own blood, suffered without the gate.
