Hebrews - ch 7 v 21 - 28
- (for they indeed have been made priests without an oath; but he with an oath by him that saith of him, The Lord sware and will not repent himself, Thou art a priest for ever);
- by so much also hath Jesus become the surety of a better covenant.
- And they indeed have been made priests many in number, because that by death they are hindered from continuing:
- but he, because he abideth for ever, hath his priesthood unchangeable.
- Wherefore also he is able to save to the uttermost them that draw near unto God through him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.
- For such a high priest became us, holy, guileless, undefiled, separated from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;
- who needeth not daily, like those high priests, to offer up sacrifices, first for his own sins, and then for the `sins' of the people: for this he did once for all, when he offered up himself.
- For the law appointeth men high priests, having infirmity; but the word of the oath, which was after the law, `appointeth' a Son, perfected for evermore.
