'High priest' in the Bible

Whence it was right for him to be in all respects made like to his brethren, that he might become a merciful and faithful highpriest in things pertaining to God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people.

Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of a heavenly calling, consider the apostle and highpriest of our profession, Jesus;

Since, then, we have a great highpriest, who hath passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession.

For we have not a highpriest who cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities, but one who hath in all points been tempted as we are, without sin.

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

Thus Christ did not glorify himself to be made highpriest, but he who said to him, "Thou art my Son, I this day have begotten thee;"

being addressed by God as highpriest after the order of Melchizedek.

where as forerunner for us Jesus entered, having become a highpriest for ever, after the order of Melchizedek.

For such a highpriest also became us, holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;

Now the principal thing among those of which we are speaking is this: We have such a highpriest, who sat down on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens;

For every highpriest is appointed to offer gifts and sacrifices; whence it is necessary that this one also have something which he may offer.

but into the second the highpriest alone once every year, not without blood, which he offereth for himself, and for the errors of the people;

But Christ having appeared, as a highpriest of the good things to come, passing through the greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is, not of this creation, entered once for all into the sanctuary,

Nor yet to make an offering of himself many times, as the highpriest entereth into the holy place every year with blood of others;

For the bodies of those beasts whose blood is brought into the sanctuary by the highpriest are burned without the camp.
