• Heb 8:1-3 : 1 Now of the things we have spoken this is the sum: We have such a high priest, who is seated at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens; 2 A minister of the sanctuary, and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord set up, and not man. 3 For every high priest is appointed to offer gifts and sacrifices; therefore it is necessary that this man also have something to offer.
• Heb 5:1-9 : 1 For every high priest taken from among men is appointed for men in matters related to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins: 2 He can have compassion on the ignorant and on those who are straying, since he himself is also surrounded with weakness. 3 Because of this, he ought to offer sacrifices for sins, as for the people, so also for himself. 4 And no man takes this honor unto himself, but only he who is called by God, as was Aaron. 5 So also Christ did not glorify Himself to become a high priest, but He who said to Him, 'You are My Son, today I have begotten You.' 6 As He also says in another place, 'You are a priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek.' 7 In the days of His flesh, when He had offered up prayers and petitions with strong crying and tears to Him who was able to save Him from death, and was heard because of His reverent submission; 8 Though He was a Son, yet He learned obedience through the things which He suffered; 9 And having been made perfect, He became the author of eternal salvation to all who obey Him; 10 Called by God as a high priest according to the order of Melchizedek.
