1 Therefore, holy brothers, ^{▼▼Or brothers and sisters; also verse 12} you who share in ⁿa heavenly calling, consider Jesus, ^othe apostle and high priest of our confession,

Hebrews 4:14-16

Jesus the Great High Priest

14 Since then we have ^pa great high priest ^qwho has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, ^rlet us hold fast our confession. 15 For we do not have a high priest ^swho is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been ^ttempted as we are, ^uyet without sin. 16 ^vLet us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

Hebrews 6:20

20 where Jesus has gone ^was a forerunner on our behalf, ^xhaving become a high priest forever after the order of Melchizedek.

Hebrews 7:1

The Priestly Order of Melchizedek

1 For this ^yMelchizedek, king of ^zSalem, priest of ^aathe Most High God, met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings and blessed him,

Hebrews 7:24-28

24 but he holds his priesthood permanently, because he continues ^abforever. 25 Consequently, he is able to save to the uttermost ^{▼▼That is, completely; or at all times} ^adthose who draw near to God ^aethrough him, since he always lives ^afto make intercession for them.

26 For it was indeed fitting that we should have such a high priest, ^agholy, innocent, unstained, ^ahseparated from sinners, and ^aiexalted above the heavens. 27 He has no need, like those high priests, to offer sacrifices daily, ^ajfirst for his own sins and then for those of the people, since he did this ^akonce for all when he offered up himself. 28 For the law appoints men ^alin their weakness as high priests, but the word of the oath, which came later than the law, appoints a Son who has been made ^amperfect forever.
