1. For every high priest taken from among men is ordained for men in the things that appertain to God, that he may offer up gifts and sacrifices for sins:
2. Who can have compassion on them that are ignorant, and err: because he himself also is encompassed with infirmity.
3. And therefore he ought, as for the people, so also for himself, to offer for sins.
4. *Neither doth any man take the honour to himself but he that is called by God, as Aaron was.
5. So also Christ did not glorify himself to be made a high priest: but he that said to him: *Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee.
6. As he saith also in another place: *Thou art a priest forever, according to the order of Melchisedech.
7. Who in the days of his flesh, offering up prayers and supplications, with a strong cry and tears to him, that was able to save him from death, was heard for his reverence.
8. And whereas indeed he was the Son of God, he learned obedience by the things which he suffered:
9. And being consummated, he became the cause of eternal salvation to all that obey him,
10. Called by God a high priest, according to the order of Melchisedech.
11. Of whom we have great things to say, and hard to be intelligibly uttered: because you are become weak to hear.
12. For whereas for the time you ought to be masters; you have need to be taught again what are the first rudiments of the oracles of God: and you are become such as have need of milk, and not of solid food.
13. For every one that is a partaker of milk, is unskilful in the word of justice: for he is a little child.
14. But solid food is for the perfect: for those who by use have their senses exercised to the discerning of good and evil.
