希伯来书 5
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
5 每一个大祭司都是从人间选出来，奉派替人办理与 神有关的事，为的是要献上礼物和赎罪的祭物。 2 他能够温和地对待那些无知和迷误的人，因为他自己也被软弱所困。 3 因此，他怎样为人民的罪献祭，也应该怎样为自己的罪献祭。 4 没有人可以自己取得这大祭司的尊荣，只有像亚伦一样，蒙 神选召的才可以。
5 照样，基督也没有自己争取作大祭司的尊荣，而是曾经对他说：
“你是我的儿子，
我今日生了你”
的 神荣耀了他； 6 就像他在另一处说：
“你是照着麦基洗德的体系，
永远作祭司的。”
7 基督在世的时候，曾经流泪大声祷告恳求那位能救他脱离死亡的 神；因着他的敬虔，就蒙了应允。 8 他虽然是儿子，还是因着所受的苦难学会了顺从。 9 他既然顺从到底（“他既然顺从到底”或译：“他既然达到完全”），就成了所有顺从他的人得到永远救恩的根源； 10 而且蒙 神照着麦基洗德的体系，称他为大祭司。
劝勉信徒要长大成人
11 论到这些事，我们有很多话要说，可是很难解释；因为你们已经迟钝了，听不进去。 12 到这个时候，你们应该已经作老师了；可是你们还需要有人再把 神道理的初步教导你们。你们成了只能吃奶而不能吃干粮的人！ 13 凡是吃奶的，还是个婴孩，对公义的道理没有经历； 14 只有长大成人的，才能吃干粮，他们的官能因为操练纯熟，就能分辨是非了。
Yehudim in Moshiach 5
Orthodox Jewish Bible
5 For every Kohen Gadol taken from among Bnei Adam is ordained for men for the avodas kodesh of Hashem, that he may offer both minchot (gifts) and zevakhim (sacrifices) for chatta’im (sins).
2 The Kohen Gadol is able to deal gently with the Am Ha’Aretz and Wayward, als (since) he himself is subject to helpless human frailty;
3 and therefore he is obligated to offer zevakhim not only for the averos of the Am Berit but also for his own averos.
4 And one does not presume to take the kavod of the office of Kohen Gadol upon oneself, but one must have the bechirah (choice, election) of Hashem, just as Aharon did.
5 So also Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach did not seize kavod for himself to become a Kohen Gadol, but the One having said to him, "BENI ATAH, ANI HAYOM YELIDTICHA," ("My Son you are; Today I have become your Father." TEHILLIM 2:7)
6 Says also in another passage, "ATAH KOHEN L’OLAM AL DIVRATI MALKITZEDEK ("You are a kohen forever according to the order of Malki Tzedek"‖Ps 110:4).
7 Rebbi, Melech HaMoshiach, in the days of his earthly life, offered with a raised voice and tears both tefillos and techinnah (prayers of supplication) to the One who was able to deliver him from mavet, and Hashem heard him because of his chasidus.
8 Although he was HaBen, Rebbi, Melech HaMoshiach learned mishma’at from his yissurim.
9 And having been made shalem (complete), to all those with mishma’at toward Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, he became the source of Yeshu’at Eloheinu Olamim,
10 Having been designated by Hashem as Kohen Gadol AL DIVRATI MALKITZEDEK [TEHILLIM 110:4].
11 We have much to say about this for which it is difficult to make a midrash, als (since) you have become spiritually hard-of-hearing.
12 For indeed by this time you ought to be [rabbininic] morim saying shiurim, but instead you have need again to be taught the orthodox Jewish basic ikarim (principles, essentials) of the Divrei Hashem, and you have become one having need of cholov and not solid okhel.
13 For everyone partaking of cholov is unacquainted with HaDivrei Tzedek, for he is an olel (infant).
14 But solid okhel is for the mevugarim (mature ones, adults), the ones whose keilim (faculties) have been trained by practice for distinguishing both HaTov and HaRah. [T.N. In the next chp a warning is given to the Messianic Jew who re-submits Yehoshua to re-trial and reassigns the original verdict of deceiver: no re-rebirth, no rerepentance for such shmad]
Hebrews 5
The Voice
5 Remember what I said earlier about the role of the high priest, even the ones chosen by human beings? The job of every high priest is reconciliation: approaching God on behalf of others and offering Him gifts and sacrifices to repair the damage caused by our sins against God and each other. 2 The high priest should have compassion for those who are ignorant of the faith and those who fall out of the faith because he also has wrestled with human weakness, 3 and so the priest must offer sacrifices both for his sins and for those of the people. 4 The office of high priest and the honor that goes along with it isn’t one that someone just takes. One must be set aside, called by God, just as God called Aaron, the brother of Moses.
5 In the same way, the Anointed One, our Liberating King, didn’t call Himself but was appointed to His priestly office by God, who said to Him,
You are My Son.
Today I have become Your Father,[a]
6 and who also says elsewhere,
You are a priest forever—
in the honored order of Melchizedek.[b]
Jesus is the Great High Priest because He serves as the ultimate mediator between God and humanity. In this role He serves as both the priest and the sacrifice that atones for sins once and for all. But we are still called to be priests for each other. These are not mutually exclusive ideas.
Whenever you share a cup of cold water in Jesus’ name or pray for someone, you’re a priest. You’re communicating the grace of God. There are times that we need a priest, too, right? If we are to be like Him, we must allow someone else to be a priest for us. There are problems so great and pains so deep and sins so intractable that we need a person of flesh and blood to join us in carrying our concerns to God.
7 When Jesus was on the earth, a man of flesh and blood, He offered up prayers and pleas, groans and tears to the One who could save Him from death. He was heard because He approached God with reverence. 8 Although He was a Son, Jesus learned obedience through the things He suffered. 9 And once He was perfected through that suffering He became the way of eternal salvation for all those who hear and follow Him, 10 for God appointed Him to be a High Priest in the order of Melchizedek.
11 I have a lot more to say about this, but it may be hard for you to follow since you’ve become dull in your understanding. 12 By this time, you ought to be teachers yourselves, yet I feel like you want me to reteach you the most basic things that God wants you to know. It’s almost like you’re a baby again, coddled at your mother’s breast, nursing, not ready for solid food. 13 No one who lives on milk alone can know the ins and outs of what it means to be righteous and pursue justice; that’s because he is only a baby. 14 But solid food is for those who have come of age, for those who have learned through practice to distinguish good from evil.
