ForG1063 thisG3778 MelchisedecG3198, kingG935 of SalemG4532, priestG2409 of the most highG5310 GodG2316, whoG3588 metG4876 AbrahamG11 returningG5290 fromG575 the slaughterG2871 of the kingsG935, andG2532 blessedG2127 himG846;
To whomG3739 alsoG2532 AbrahamG11 gaveG3307 a tenth partG1181 ofG575 allG3956; firstG4412+G3303 being by interpretationG2059 KingG935 of righteousnessG1343, andG1161 after thatG1899 alsoG2532 KingG935 of SalemG4532, which isG3603, KingG935 of peaceG1515;
Without fatherG540, without motherG282, without descentG35, havingG2192 neitherG3383 beginningG746 of daysG2250, norG3383 endG5056 of lifeG2222; butG1161 made likeG871 unto the SonG5207 of GodG2316; abidethG3306 a priestG2409 continuallyG1519+G1336. {without descent: Gr. without pedigree}
NowG1161 considerG2334 how greatG4080 this manG3778 was, unto whomG3739 evenG2532 the patriarchG3966 AbrahamG11 gaveG1325 the tenthG1181 ofG1537 the spoilsG205.
AndG2532 verilyG3303 they that are ofG1537 the sonsG5207 of LeviG3017, whoG3588 receiveG2983 the office of the priesthoodG2405, haveG2192 a commandmentG1785 to take tithesG586 of the peopleG2992 according toG2596 the lawG3551, that isG5123, of theirG846 brethrenG80, thoughG2539 they comeG1831 out ofG1537 the loinsG3751 of AbrahamG11:
ButG1161 he whose descent isG1075 notG3361 countedG1075 fromG1537 themG846 received tithesG1183 of AbrahamG11, andG2532 blessedG2127 him that hadG2192 the promisesG1860. {descent: or, pedigree}
AndG1161 withoutG5565 allG3956 contradictionG485 the lessG1640 is blessedG2127 ofG5259 the betterG2909.
AndG2532 hereG5602+G3303 menG444 that dieG599 receiveG2983 tithesG1181; butG1161 thereG1563 he receiveth them, of whom it is witnessedG3140 thatG3754 he livethG2198.
AndG2532 asG5613 I may so sayG2031+G2036, LeviG3017 alsoG2532, whoG3588 receivethG2983 tithesG1181, payed tithesG1183 inG1223 AbrahamG11.
ForG1063 he wasG2258 yetG2089 inG1722 the loinsG3751 of his fatherG3962, whenG3753 MelchisedecG3198 metG4876 himG846.
IfG1487+G3303 thereforeG3767 perfectionG5050 wereG2258 byG1223 the LeviticalG3020 priesthoodG2420, (forG1063 underG1909 itG846 the peopleG2992 received the lawG3549,) whatG5101 furtherG2089 needG5532 was there that anotherG2087 priestG2409 should riseG450 afterG2596 the orderG5010 of MelchisedecG3198, andG2532 notG3756 be calledG3004 afterG2596 the orderG5010 of AaronG2?
ForG1063 the priesthoodG2420 being changedG3346, there is madeG1096 ofG1537 necessityG318 a changeG3331 alsoG2532 of the lawG3551.
ForG1063 he ofG1909 whomG3739 these thingsG5023 are spokenG3004 pertainethG3348 to anotherG2087 tribeG5443, ofG575 whichG3739 no manG3762 gave attendanceG4337 at the altarG2379.
ForG1063 it is evidentG4271 thatG3754 ourG2257 LordG2962 sprangG393 out ofG1537 JudaG2455; ofG1519 whichG3739 tribeG5443 MosesG3475 spakeG2980 nothingG3762 concerningG4012 priesthoodG2420.
AndG2532 it isG2076 yetG2089 far moreG4054 evidentG2612: forG1487 that afterG2596 the similitudeG3665 of MelchisedecG3198 there arisethG450 anotherG2087 priestG2409,
WhoG3739 is madeG1096, notG3756 afterG2596 the lawG3551 of a carnalG4559 commandmentG1785, butG235 afterG2596 the powerG1411 of an endlessG179 lifeG2222.
ForG1063 he testifiethG3140+G3754, ThouG4771 art a priestG2409 forG1519 everG165 afterG2596 the orderG5010 of MelchisedecG3198.
ForG1063 there isG1096 verilyG3303 a disannullingG115 of the commandmentG1785 going beforeG4254 forG1223 the weaknessG772 andG2532 unprofitablenessG512 thereofG846.
ForG1063 the lawG3551 madeG5048 nothingG3762 perfectG5048, butG1161 the bringing inG1898 of a betterG2909 hopeG1680 did; byG1223 the whichG3739 we draw nighG1448 unto GodG2316. {the bringing…: or, it was the bringing in}
AndG2532 inasmuch asG2596+G3745 notG3756 withoutG5565 an oathG3728 he was made priest:
(ForG1063 those priestsG2409 wereG3303+G1526 madeG1096 withoutG5565 an oathG3728; butG1161 this withG3326 an oathG3728 byG1223 him that saidG3004 untoG4314 himG846, The LordG2962 swareG3660 andG2532 willG3338 notG3756 repentG3338, ThouG4771 art a priestG2409 forG1519 everG165 afterG2596 the orderG5010 of MelchisedecG3198:) {without…: or, without swearing of an oath}
ByG2596 so muchG5118 wasG1096 JesusG2424 madeG1096 a suretyG1450 of a betterG2909 testamentG1242.
AndG2532 theyG1526 trulyG3303 wereG1526+G1096 manyG4119 priestsG2409, because they were not sufferedG2967 to continueG3887 by reason ofG1223 deathG2288:
ButG1161 this man, becauseG1223 heG846 continuethG3306 everG1519+G165, hathG2192 an unchangeableG531 priesthoodG2420. {an…: or, which passeth not from one to another}
WhereforeG3606 he is ableG1410 alsoG2532 to save themG4982 toG1519 the uttermostG3838 that comeG4334 unto GodG2316 byG1223 himG846, seeing he everG3842 livethG2198 toG1519 make intercessionG1793 forG5228 themG846. {to the…: or, evermore}
ForG1063 suchG5108 an high priestG749 becameG4241 usG2254, who is holyG3741, harmlessG172, undefiledG283, separateG5563 fromG575 sinnersG268, andG2532 madeG1096 higher thanG5308 the heavensG3772;
WhoG3739 needethG2192+G318 notG3756 dailyG2596+G2250, asG5618 those high priestsG749, to offer upG399 sacrificeG2378, firstG4386 forG5228 his ownG2398 sinsG266, and thenG1899 for the people'sG2992: forG1063 thisG5124 he didG4160 onceG2178, when he offered upG399 himselfG1438.
ForG1063 the lawG3551 makethG2525 menG444 high priestsG749 which haveG2192 infirmityG769; butG1161 the wordG3056 of the oathG3728, whichG3588 was sinceG3326 the lawG3551, maketh the SonG5207, who is consecratedG5048 forG1519 evermoreG165. {consecrated: Gr. perfected}

IfG1487+G3303 thereforeG3767 perfectionG5050 wereG2258 byG1223 the LeviticalG3020 priesthoodG2420, (forG1063 underG1909 itG846 the peopleG2992 received the lawG3549,) whatG5101 furtherG2089 needG5532 was there that anotherG2087 priestG2409 should riseG450 afterG2596 the orderG5010 of MelchisedecG3198, andG2532 notG3756 be calledG3004 afterG2596 the orderG5010 of AaronG2?

ForG1063 ifG1487 thatG1565 firstG4413 covenant had beenG2258 faultlessG273, then shouldG302 noG3756 placeG5117 have been soughtG2212 for the secondG1208.

ForG1063 finding faultG3201 with themG846, he saithG3004, BeholdG2400, the daysG2250 comeG2064, saithG3004 the LordG2962, whenG2532 I will makeG4931 a newG2537 covenantG1242 withG1909 the houseG3624 of IsraelG2474 andG2532 withG1909 the houseG3624 of JudahG2455:
NotG3756 according toG2596 the covenantG1242 thatG3739 I made withG4160 theirG846 fathersG3962 inG1722 the dayG2250 when I tookG1949 themG846 by the handG3450+G5495 to leadG1806 themG846 out ofG1537 the landG1093 of EgyptG125; becauseG3754 theyG846 continuedG1696 notG3756 inG1722 myG3450 covenantG1242, and IG2504 regardedG272 themG846 notG272, saithG3004 the LordG2962.
ForG3754 thisG3778 is the covenantG1242 thatG3739 I will makeG1303 with the houseG3624 of IsraelG2474 afterG3326 thoseG1565 daysG2250, saithG3004 the LordG2962; I will putG1325 myG3450 lawsG3551 intoG1519 theirG846 mindG1271, andG2532 writeG1924 themG846 inG1909 theirG846 heartsG2588: andG2532 I will beG2071 toG1519 themG846 a GodG2316, andG2532 theyG846 shall beG2071 toG1519 meG3427 a peopleG2992: {put: Gr. give} {in: or, upon}
AndG2532 they shallG1321 notG3364 teachG1321 every manG1538 hisG846 neighbourG4139, andG2532 every manG1538 hisG846 brotherG80, sayingG3004, KnowG1097 the LordG2962: forG3754 allG3956 shall knowG1492 meG3165, fromG575 the leastG3398+G846 toG2193 the greatestG3173+G846.
ForG3754 I will beG2071 mercifulG2436 to theirG846 unrighteousnessG93, andG2532 theirG846 sinsG266 andG2532 theirG846 iniquitiesG458 will I rememberG3415 noG3364 moreG2089.
InG1722 that he saithG3004, A newG2537 covenant, he hath madeG3822 the firstG4413 oldG3822. NowG1161 that which decayethG3822 andG2532 waxeth oldG1095 is readyG1451 to vanish awayG854.
ForG1063 finding faultG3201 with themG846, he saithG3004, BeholdG2400, the daysG2250 comeG2064, saithG3004 the LordG2962, whenG2532 I will makeG4931 a newG2537 covenantG1242 withG1909 the houseG3624 of IsraelG2474 andG2532 withG1909 the houseG3624 of JudahG2455:
ForG1063 the lawG3551 havingG2192 a shadowG4639 of good thingsG18 to comeG3195, and notG3756 the veryG846 imageG1504 of the thingsG4229, canG1410 neverG3763 with thoseG846 sacrificesG2378 whichG3739 they offeredG4374 year by yearG2596+G1763 continuallyG1519+G1336 makeG5048 the comers thereuntoG4334 perfectG5048.
For thenG1893 would theyG302 notG3756 have ceasedG3973 to be offeredG4374? becauseG1223 that the worshippersG3000 onceG530 purgedG2508 should have hadG2192 noG3367 moreG2089 conscienceG4893 of sinsG266. {would…: or, they would have ceased to be offered, because, etc.}
ButG235 inG1722 thoseG846 sacrifices there is a remembrance againG364 made of sinsG266 everyG2596 yearG1763.
ForG1063 it is not possibleG102 that the bloodG129 of bullsG5022 andG2532 of goatsG5131 should take awayG851 sinsG266.
WhereforeG1352 when he comethG1525 intoG1519 the worldG2889, he saithG3004, SacrificeG2378 andG2532 offeringG4376 thou wouldestG2309 notG3756, butG1161 a bodyG4983 hast thou preparedG2675 meG3427: {hast…: or, thou hast fitted me}
In burnt offeringsG3646 andG2532 sacrifices forG4012 sinG266 thou hast hadG2106 noG3756 pleasureG2106.
ThenG5119 said IG2036, LoG2400, I comeG2240 (inG1722 the volumeG2777 of the bookG975 it is writtenG1125 ofG4012 meG1700,) to doG4160 thyG4675 willG2307, O GodG2316.
AboveG511 when he saidG3004+G3754, SacrificeG2378 andG2532 offeringG4376 andG2532 burnt offeringsG3646 andG2532 offering forG4012 sinG266 thou wouldestG2309 notG3756, neitherG3761 hadst pleasureG2106 therein; whichG3748 are offeredG4374 byG2596 the lawG3551;
ThenG5119 said heG2046, LoG2400, I comeG2240 to doG4160 thyG4675 willG2307, O GodG2316. He taketh awayG337 the firstG4413, thatG2443 he may establishG2476 the secondG1208.
WhichG3748 was a figureG3850 forG1519 the timeG2540 then presentG1764, inG2596 whichG3739 were offeredG4374 bothG5037 giftsG1435 andG2532 sacrificesG2378, that couldG1410 notG3361 makeG5048 him that did the serviceG3000 perfectG5048, as pertaining toG2596 the conscienceG4893;
Do weG2673 thenG3767 make voidG2673 the lawG3551 throughG1223 faithG4102? God forbidG3361+G1096: yeaG235, we establishG2476 the lawG3551.
Which stood onlyG3440 inG1909 meatsG1033 andG2532 drinksG4188, andG2532 diversG1313 washingsG909, andG2532 carnalG4561 ordinancesG1345, imposedG1945 on them untilG3360 the timeG2540 of reformationG1357. {ordinances: or, rites, or, ceremonies}
BrethrenG80, I speakG3004 after the manner ofG2596 menG444; Though it be butG3676 a man'sG444 covenantG1242, yet if it be confirmedG2964, no manG3762 disannullethG114, orG2228 addeth theretoG1928. {covenant: or, testament}
ForG1063 the lawG3551 havingG2192 a shadowG4639 of good thingsG18 to comeG3195, and notG3756 the veryG846 imageG1504 of the thingsG4229, canG1410 neverG3763 with thoseG846 sacrificesG2378 whichG3739 they offeredG4374 year by yearG2596+G1763 continuallyG1519+G1336 makeG5048 the comers thereuntoG4334 perfectG5048.
For thenG1893 would theyG302 notG3756 have ceasedG3973 to be offeredG4374? becauseG1223 that the worshippersG3000 onceG530 purgedG2508 should have hadG2192 noG3367 moreG2089 conscienceG4893 of sinsG266. {would…: or, they would have ceased to be offered, because, etc.}
ButG235 inG1722 thoseG846 sacrifices there is a remembrance againG364 made of sinsG266 everyG2596 yearG1763.
ForG1063 it is not possibleG102 that the bloodG129 of bullsG5022 andG2532 of goatsG5131 should take awayG851 sinsG266.
AndG1161 thisG5124 I sayG3004, that the covenantG1242, that was confirmed beforeG4300 ofG5259 GodG2316 inG1519 ChristG5547, the lawG3551, which wasG1096 four hundredG5071 andG2532 thirtyG5144 yearsG2094 afterG3326, cannotG3756 disannulG208, thatG1519 it should makeG2673 the promiseG1860 of none effectG2673.
BeG4064 notG3361 carried aboutG4064 with diversG4164 andG2532 strangeG3581 doctrinesG1322. ForG1063 it is a good thingG2570 that the heartG2588 be establishedG950 with graceG5485; notG3756 with meatsG1033, which haveG5623 notG3756 profitedG5623 them that have been occupiedG4043 thereinG1722+G3739.
AndG2532 byG1722 himG5129 allG3956 that believeG4100 are justifiedG1344 fromG575 all thingsG3956, from whichG3739 ye couldG1410 notG3756 be justifiedG1344 byG1722 the lawG3551 of MosesG3475.
ForG1063 what the lawG3551 could not doG102, inG1722 thatG3739 it was weakG770 throughG1223 the fleshG4561, GodG2316 sendingG3992 his ownG1438 SonG5207 inG1722 the likenessG3667 of sinfulG266 fleshG4561, andG2532 forG4012 sinG266, condemnedG2632 sinG266 inG1722 the fleshG4561: {for sin: or, by a sacrifice for sin}
ButG1161 nowG3568, after that ye have knownG1097 GodG2316, orG1161 ratherG3123 are knownG1097 ofG5259 GodG2316, howG4459 turn yeG1994 againG3825 toG1909 the weakG772 andG2532 beggarlyG4434 elementsG4747, whereuntoG3739 ye desireG2309 againG3825+G509 to be in bondageG1398? {turn ye again: or, turn ye back} {elements: or, rudiments}
