Hebrews 5 📜 📕 ↷
Perfect High Priest
1 FOR every high Priest taken from among men, is appointed for men in those things that pertain to God: that he may offer gifts and sacrifices for sins:📜💬📚
2 that can have compassion on them that be ignorant and do err: because himself also is compassed with infirmity:📜💬📚
3 & therefore he ought, as for the people, so also for himself to offer for sins.📜💬📚
4 Neither doth any man take the honour to himself, but he that is called of God, as Aaron.📜💬📚
5 So Christ also did not glorify himself that he might be made a high priest; but he that spake to him, My Son art thou, I this day have begotten thee.📜💬📚
6 As also in another place he saith, Thou art a priest for ever, according to the order of Melchisedech.📜💬📚
7 Who in the days of his flesh, with a strong cry and tears, offering prayers and supplications to him that could save him from death, was heard for his reverence.📜💬📚
8 And truly whereas he was the Son, he learned by those things which he suffered, obedience:📜💬📚
9 and being consummate, was made to all that obey him, cause of eternal salvation,📜💬📚
10 called of God a high priest according to the order of Melchisedech.📜💬📚
Milk and Solid Food
11 Of whom we have great speech and inexplicable to utter: because you are become weak to hear.📜💬📚
12 For whereas you ought to be masters for your time, you need to be taught again your selves what be the elements of the beginning of the words of God: & you are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat.📜💬📚
13 For every one that is partaker of milk, is unskillful of the word of justice: for he is a child.📜💬📚
14 But strong meat is for the perfect, them that by custom have their senses exercised to the discerning of good and evil.📜💬📚
