  2. Hebrews 5:1–14Rank 2 from verse 15
    Open

    1FOR every high priest taken from among men is ordained for men in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins:

    2Who can have compassion on the ignorant, and on them that are out of the way; for that he himself also is compassed with infirmity.

    3And by reason hereof he ought, as for the people, so also for himself, to offer for sins.

    4And no man taketh this honour unto himself, but he that is called of God, as was Aaron.

    5So also Christ glorified not himself to be made an high priest; but he that said unto him, Thou art my Son, to day have I begotten thee.

    6As he saith also in another place, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.

    7Who in the days of his flesh, when he had offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears unto him that was able to save him from death, and was heard in that he feared;

    8Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered;

    9And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him;

    10Called of God an high priest after the order of Melchisedec.

    11Of whom we have many things to say, and hard to be uttered, seeing ye are dull of hearing.

    12For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat.

    13For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe.

    14But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.

  3. Hebrews 7:17–24Rank 3 from verse 15
    Open

    17For he testifieth, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.

    18For there is verily a disannulling of the commandment going before for the weakness and unprofitableness thereof.

    19For the law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better hope did; by the which we draw nigh unto God.

    20And inasmuch as not without an oath he was made priest:

    21(For those priests were made without an oath; but this with an oath by him that said unto him, The Lord sware and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec:)

    22By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament.

    23And they truly were many priests, because they were not suffered to continue by reason of death:

    24But this man, because he continueth ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood.

  4. Hebrews 8:1–10Rank 4 from verse 15
    Open

    1NOW of the things which we have spoken this is the sum: We have such an high priest, who is set on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens;

    2A minister of the sanctuary, and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord pitched, and not man.

    3For every high priest is ordained to offer gifts and sacrifices: wherefore it is of necessity that this man have somewhat also to offer.

    4For if he were on earth, he should not be a priest, seeing that there are priests that offer gifts according to the law:

    5Who serve unto the example and shadow of heavenly things, as Moses was admonished of God when he was about to make the tabernacle: for, See, saith he, that thou make all things according to the pattern shewed to thee in the mount.

    6But now hath he obtained a more excellent ministry, by how much also he is the mediator of a better covenant, which was established upon better promises.

    7For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second.

    8For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah:

    9Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord.

    10For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people:
