Previous Chapter Previous Verse Full Chapter Next Verse Next Chapter
7 But without any dispute the less is blessed of the better.
8 Here men who die receive tithes, but there one, of whom it is testified that he lives.
9 So to say, through Abraham even Levi, who receives tithes, has paid tithes,
10 for he was yet in the loins of his father when Melchizedek met him.
11 Now if there was perfection through the Levitical priesthood (for under it have the people received the law), what further need was there for another priest to arise after the order of Melchizedek, and not be called after the order of Aaron?
12 For the priesthood being changed, there is of necessity a change made also of the law.
13 For he of whom these things are said belongs to another tribe, from which no man has given attendance at the altar.
