Hebrews 5:7-13

While Jesus lived on earth, he prayed to God and asked God for help. He prayed with loud cries and tears to the One who could save him from death. And his prayer was heard because he left it all up to God. Even though Jesus was the Son of God, he learned to obey by what he suffered. And he became our perfect high priest. He gives eternal salvation to all who obey him. And God made Jesus high priest, a priest like Melchizedek. We have much to say about this. But it is hard to explain because you are so slow to understand. You have had enough time so that by now you should be teachers. But you need someone to teach you again the first lessons of God’s message. You still need the teaching that is like milk. You are not ready for solid food. Anyone who lives on milk is still a baby. He knows nothing about right teaching.
