Hebrews 7:16-18

Easy-to-Read Version

¹⁶ He was made a priest, but not because he met the requirement of being born into the right family. He became a priest by the power of a life that will never end. ¹⁷ This is what the Scriptures say about him: “You are a priest forever—the kind of priest Melchizedek was.”^[a]

¹⁸ The old rule is now ended because it was weak and worthless.
