Hebrews Chapter 5
:1 For every high priest taken from among men is appointed
for men in things pertaining to GOD, that he may offer both gifts and
sacrifices for sins (Leviticus 8-9).
:2 He can have compassion on (deal gently with) those who are
ignorant and going astray, since he himself is also subject to weakness
(Hebrews 7:28).
:3 Because of this he is required as for the people, so also
for himself, to offer sacrifices for sins (Leviticus 9:7, 15).
:4 And no man takes this honor to himself, but he who is
called by GOD, just as Aaron was (Exodus 28:1).
:5 So also CHRIST did not Glorify Himself (John 8:54) to
become High Priest, but it was He (GOD) Who said to Him: “You are My Son, today
I have begotten You.” (Psalm 2:7-9)
:6-7 As He (GOD) also says in another place: “You are a
Priest forever according to the Order of Melchizedek” (Psalm 110:1-4); Who in
the days of His Flesh (Philippians 2:5-8), when He offered up prayers and
supplications, with vehement cries and tears to Him (GOD) Who was able to Save
Him from death (Matthew 26:39-44), and was heard because of His GODLY Fear (Luke
23:44-46, John 19:30-“It is finished!”),
:8-10 though He was a son (Mark 1:9-11), yet He learned
obedience (John 8:28-30) by the things which He suffered (Hebrews 2:18), and
having been perfected (Hebrews 2:10) He became the Author (Originator) of Eternal
Salvation (Hebrews 12:2) to all who obey Him, called by GOD as High Priest
“according to the Order of Melchizedek (Hebrews 7:1-4),”
:11 of whom we have much to say, and hard to explain (John
20:30-31, 21:25), since you have become dull of hearing (Matthew 13:13-15).
:12 For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you
need someone to teach you again the first Principles of The Oracles
(Scriptures) of GOD (Colossians 2:1-6); and you have come to need milk and not
solid food (1 Corinthians 3:1-3).
:13 For everyone who partakes only of milk is unskilled in
The Word of Righteousness, for he is a babe (Ephesians 4:14-15, 20-24).
:14 But solid food belongs those who are of full age (mature),
that is, those who by reason of use (practice) have their senses exercised to
discern both good and evil (Deuteronomy 30:14-15, 19-20).
