Now observe how great is this [Melchisedec], to whom even Abraham the patriarch gave the tenth of the spoils. For they indeed of the sons of Levi, who are admitted to priesthood, have an order to receive tithes from the people according to the law, that is, of their brethren, though also sprung from the loins of Abraham. But he who derived not his genealogy from them, received tithes from Abraham, and blessed him who had the promises; but without all dispute the inferior receives benediction from the superior. And here indeed dying men receive the tithes, but there he hath a testimony borne to him that he liveth. And, if I may so say, through Abraham even Levi, who receiveth tithes, paid tithes. For he was as yet in the loins of his father when Melchisedec met him. If therefore there was perfection by the Levitical priesthood (for under that the people had the law given to them), what farther need was there that another priest should arise after the order of Melchisedec, and not be called after the order of Aaron? For the priesthood being transferred, there is of necessity an abrogation of the law also. For he to whom these things are spoken belonged to another tribe, in which no man approached the altar. For it is evident that our Lord sprang from Judah; to which tribe Moses spake nothing concerning the priesthood; and it is yet more abundantly evident, that there should arise another priest after the likeness of Melchisedec, who was not made such by the law of a carnal commandment, but by the power of a life indissoluble. For the testimony is, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.

who was faithful to him who appointed him, as Moses also was in all his house.
and he will send Jesus Christ, who was before preached unto you: whom the heaven indeed must receive, until the times of restoration of all things, which God hath spoken of by the mouth of all his holy prophets from the beginning of the world.

For if the blood of bulls, and of goats, and the ashes of an heifer sprinkling the defiled sanctifieth to corporal purification, how much more shall the blood of Christ, who, by the eternal Spirit, offered up himself in sacrifice without blemish to God, cleanse our conscience from dead works, that we may perform divine service to the living God?
