c“You are a priest forever,
after the order of dMelchizedek.”
Hebrews 7:17–21
17 For it is witnessed of him,
r“You are a priest forever,
after the order of Melchizedek.”
18 For on the one hand, a former commandment is set aside because of its sweakness and uselessness 19 (for the law tmade nothing perfect); but on the other hand, a better uhope is introduced, through which we draw near to God.
20 And it was not without an oath. For those who formerly became priests were made such without an oath, 21 but this one was made a priest with an oath by the one who said to him:
v“The Lord has sworn
and wwill not change his mind,
‘You are a priest forever.’”
