Hebrews 5

5
1#Heb 8:3; 10:11; 2:17For every high priest chosen from among men is appointed to represent men in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins. 2#Heb 2:18; 7:28He is able to have compassion on the ignorant and on those who are wayward, for he himself is also subject to weakness. 3#Heb 7:27; 9:7; Lev 9:7Because of this he must offer sacrifices for his own sins, just as he does for the people. 4#Ex 28:1; Nu 16:40No man takes this honor for himself, but he who is called by God receives it, just as Aaron did.
5#Jn 8:54; Ps 2:7So also Christ did not glorify Himself to be made a High Priest, but it was He who said to Him:
“You are My Son;
today I have become Your Father.”#–7 Ps 40:6–8.
6#Heb 7:17; Ps 110:4; Heb 7:21As He also says in another place:
“You are a priest forever
in the order of Melchizedek.”#Ps 110:4.
7#Mt 27:46; 27:50In the days of His flesh, Jesus offered up prayers and supplications with loud cries and tears to Him who was able to save Him from death. He was heard because of His godly fear. 8#Php 2:8Though He was a Son, He learned obedience through the things that He suffered, 9#Heb 2:10and being made perfect, He became the source of eternal salvation for all those who obey Him, 10#Heb 5:5–6; 6:20being designated by God a High Priest according to the order of Melchizedek.
Warning Against Apostasy
11#2Pe 3:16Concerning this we have much to say that is hard to explain, since you have become hard of hearing. 12#Heb 6:1; Ac 7:38For though by now you should be teachers, you need someone to teach you again the first principles of the oracles of God and have come to need milk rather than solid food. 13#1Co 14:20; 1Pe 2:2Everyone who lives on milk is unskilled in the word of righteousness, for he is a baby. 14#Isa 7:15; 1Co 2:6But solid food belongs to those who are mature, for those who through practice have powers of discernment that are trained to distinguish good from evil.
