@
For
this
Melchisedec
,
king
of
Salem
,
priest
of the most
high
God
,
who
met
Abraham
returning
from
the
slaughter
of the
kings
,
and
blessed
him
;
strkjv@Hebrews:7:2
@ To
whom
also
Abraham
gave
a tenth
part
of
all
;
first
being by
interpretation
King
of
righteousness
,
and
after
that
also
King
of
Salem
, which
is
,
King
of
peace
;
strkjv@Hebrews:7:3
@ Without
father
, without
mother
, without
descent
,
having
neither
beginning
of
days
,
nor
end
of
life
;
but
made
like
unto the
Son
of
God
;
abideth
a
priest
continually
.
strkjv@Hebrews:7:4
@
Now
consider
how
great
this
man
was, unto
whom
even
the
patriarch
Abraham
gave
the
tenth
of
the
spoils
.
strkjv@Hebrews:7:5
@
And
verily
they that are
of
the
sons
of
Levi
,
who
receive
the office of the
priesthood
,
have
a
commandment
to take
tithes
of the
people
according
to
the
law
, that
is
, of
their
brethren
,
though
they
come
out
of
the
loins
of
Abraham
:
strkjv@Hebrews:7:6
@
But
he whose descent
is
not
counted
from
them
received
tithes
of
Abraham
,
and
blessed
him that
had
the
promises
.
strkjv@Hebrews:7:7
@
And
without
all
contradiction
the
less
is
blessed
of
the
better
.
strkjv@Hebrews:7:8
@
And
here
men
that
die
receive
tithes
;
but
there
he receiveth them, of whom it is
witnessed
that
he
liveth
.
strkjv@Hebrews:7:9
@
And
as
I may so
say
,
Levi
also
,
who
receiveth
tithes
, payed
tithes
in
Abraham
.
strkjv@Hebrews:7:10
@
For
he
was
yet
in
the
loins
of his
father
,
when
Melchisedec
met
him
.
strkjv@Hebrews:7:11
@
If
therefore
perfection
were
by
the
Levitical
priesthood
, (
for
under
it
the
people
received the
law
,)
what
further
need
was there that
another
priest
should
rise
after
the
order
of
Melchisedec
,
and
not
be
called
after
the
order
of
Aaron
?
strkjv@Hebrews:7:12
@
For
the
priesthood
being
changed
, there is
made
of
necessity
a
change
also
of the
law
.
strkjv@Hebrews:7:13
@
For
he
of
whom
these
things
are
spoken
pertaineth
to
another
tribe
,
of
which
no
man
gave
attendance
at the
altar
.
strkjv@Hebrews:7:14
@
For
it is
evident
that
our
Lord
sprang
out
of
Juda
;
of
which
tribe
Moses
spake
nothing
concerning
priesthood
.
strkjv@Hebrews:7:15
@
And
it
is
yet
far
more
evident
:
for
that
after
the
similitude
of
Melchisedec
there
ariseth
another
priest
,
strkjv@Hebrews:7:16
@
Who
is
made
,
not
after
the
law
of a
carnal
commandment
,
but
after
the
power
of an
endless
life
.
strkjv@Hebrews:7:17
@
For
he
testifieth
,
Thou
art a
priest
for
ever
after
the
order
of
Melchisedec
.
strkjv@Hebrews:7:18
@
For
there
is
verily
a
disannulling
of the
commandment
going
before
for
the
weakness
and
unprofitableness
thereof
.
strkjv@Hebrews:7:19
@
For
the
law
made
nothing
perfect
,
but
the bringing
in
of a
better
hope
did;
by
the
which
we draw
nigh
unto
God
.
strkjv@Hebrews:7:20
@
And
inasmuch
as
not
without
an
oath
he was made priest:
strkjv@Hebrews:7:21
@ (
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
:)
strkjv@Hebrews:7:22
@
By
so
much
was
Jesus
made
a
surety
of a
better
testament
.
strkjv@Hebrews:7:23
@
And
they
truly
were
many
priests
, because they were not
suffered
to
continue
by reason
of
death
:
strkjv@Hebrews:7:24
@
But
this man,
because
he
continueth
ever
,
hath
an
unchangeable
priesthood
.
