Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings and blessed him, <\/br><strong>2<\/strong> to whom also Abraham divided a tenth part of all (being first, by interpretation, King of righteousness, and then also King of Salem, which is King of peace; <\/br><strong>3<\/strong> without father, without mother, without genealogy, having neither beginning of days nor end of life, but made like unto the Son of God), abideth a priest continually. <\/br><strong>4<\/strong> Now consider how great this man was, unto whom Abraham, the patriarch, gave a tenth out of the chief spoils. <\/br><strong>5<\/strong> And they indeed of the sons of Levi that receive the priest&#8217;s office have commandment to take tithes of the people according to the law, that is, of their brethren, though these have come out of the loins of Abraham: <\/br><strong>6<\/strong> but he whose genealogy is not counted from them hath taken tithes of Abraham, and hath blessed him that hath the promises. <\/br><strong>7<\/strong> But without any dispute the less is blessed of the better. <\/br><strong>8<\/strong> And here men that die receive tithes; but there one, of whom it is witnessed that he liveth. <\/br><strong>9<\/strong> And, so to say, through Abraham even Levi, who receiveth tithes, hath paid tithes; <\/br><strong>10<\/strong> for he was yet in the loins of his father, when Melchizedek met him. <\/br><strong>11<\/strong> Now if there was perfection through the Levitical priesthood (for under it hath the people received the law), what further need `was there&#8217; that another priest should arise after the order of Melchizedek, and not be reckoned after the order of Aaron? <\/br><strong>12<\/strong> For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a change also of the law. <\/br><strong>13<\/strong> For he of whom these things are said belongeth to another tribe, from which no man hath given attendance at the altar. <\/br><strong>14<\/strong> For it is evident that our Lord hath sprung out of Judah; as to which tribe Moses spake nothing concerning priests. <\/br><strong>15<\/strong> And `what we say&#8217; is yet more abundantly evident, if after the likeness of Melchizedek there ariseth another priest, <\/br><strong>16<\/strong> who hath been made, not after the law of a carnal commandment, but after the power of an endless life: <\/br><strong>17<\/strong> for it is witnessed `of him,&#8217; Thou art a priest for ever After the order of Melchizedek. <\/br><strong>18<\/strong> For there is a disannulling of a foregoing commandment because of its weakness and unprofitableness <\/br><strong>19<\/strong> (for the law made nothing perfect), and a bringing in thereupon of a better hope, through which we draw nigh unto God. <\/br><strong>20<\/strong> And inasmuch as `it is&#8217; not without the taking of an oath <\/br><strong>21<\/strong> (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); <\/br><strong>22<\/strong> by so much also hath Jesus become the surety of a better covenant. <\/br><strong>23<\/strong> And they indeed have been made priests many in number, because that by death they are hindered from continuing: <\/br><strong>24<\/strong> but he, because he abideth for ever, hath his priesthood unchangeable. <\/br><strong>25<\/strong> 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. <\/br><strong>26<\/strong> For such a high priest became us, holy, guileless, undefiled, separated from sinners, and made higher than the heavens; <\/br><strong>27<\/strong> who needeth not daily, like those high priests, to offer up sacrifices, first for his own sins, and then for the `sins&#8217; of the people: for this he did once for all, when he offered up himself. <\/br><strong>28<\/strong> For the law appointeth men high priests, having infirmity; but the word of the oath, which was after the law, `appointeth&#8217; a Son, perfected for evermore. <\/br><script
