- 7:25 For this reason he is able to save completely those who approach God through him, since he is always alive to plead on their behalf. 43
- 7:22 As much greater as that oath makes his priesthood, so much better is the covenant of which Jesus has become the guarantee. 6
- 7:26 This is the kind of high priest that suits our need: holy, innocent, unstained, separate from sinners, and raised above the heavens. 4
- 7:2 and Abraham set aside for him a tenth of everything. Translated, his name means first of all "king of righteousness"; and he is also king of Salem, which means "king of peace." 2
- 7:24 But he remains forever, and so the priesthood he holds will never pass to another. 2
- 7:4 See how great this man was: Abraham the patriarch himself gave him a tenth of the choicest plunder. 1
- 7:5 Now those descendants of Levi who receive the priestly office are commanded by the law to collect a tenth from the people, that is, from their fellow Israelites, though they too are descended from Abraham. 1
- 7:6 But this man, whose descent is not traced from Levi, took a tenth from Abraham and blessed the man who held the promises. 1
- 7:10 for Levi was still in the body of his ancestor when Melchizedek met Abraham. 1
- 7:11 If the Levitical priesthood could have brought perfection (and the people's law was given on the basis of that priesthood), why would a different priest still have to arise, a priest of the order of Melchizedek, and not one named of the order of Aaron? 1
- 7:12 A change of priesthood necessarily brings with it a change of law. 1
- 7:14 It is plain to all that our Lord came from Judah, and Moses said nothing at all about priests from that tribe. 1
- 7:17 For Scripture testifies of him, "You are a priest forever of the order of Melchizedek." 1
- 7:23 There have been many Levitical priests, one after another, because death cut short each one's service; 1
- 7:27 He has no need to do what the other high priests do day by day: offer sacrifices first for their own sins and then for the sins of the people. He did that once for all when he offered up himself. 1
