Hebrews 5:7
v. 7: Christ’s calling is greater than Aaron’s. God said to Jesus, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee (Psalm 2:7 a). This points to Jesus’ eternal nature as God, his miraculous birth as a human, and his perfect fitness to be our Mediator. God also said, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec (Psalm 110:4 b). Jesus’ priesthood is permanent and higher than Aaron’s. It does not pass from father to son, but is personal and without end.
