Hebräer 5

Christus ist als Hoherpriester über die Hohenpriester des Alten Buzndes erhaben

5 Denn jeder aus Menschen genommene Hohepriester wird für Menschen eingesetzt, zum Dienst vor Gott[a], um sowohl Gaben darzubringen, als auch Opfer für Sünden. 2 Ein solcher kann Nachsicht üben mit den Unwissenden und Irrenden, da er auch selbst mit Schwachheit behaftet ist; 3 und ihretwegen muß er, wie für das Volk, so auch für sich selbst, opfern für die Sünden.

4 Und keiner nimmt sich selbst die Würde, sondern er wird von Gott berufen, gleichwie Aaron. 5 So hat auch Christus sich nicht selbst die hohepriesterliche Würde beigelegt, sondern der, welcher zu ihm sprach:

"Du bist mein Sohn; heute habe ich dich gezeugt."

6 Wie er auch an anderer Stelle spricht:

"Du bist ein Priester in Ewigkeit nach der Ordnung Melchisedeks."

7 Und er hat in den Tagen seines Fleisches Bitten und Flehen mit starkem Geschrei und Tränen dem dargebracht, der ihn vom Tode retten konnte, und ist auch erhört [und befreit] worden von dem Zagen[b]. 8 Und wiewohl er Sohn war, hat er doch an dem, was er litt, den Gehorsam gelernt; 9 und [so] zur Vollendung gelangt, ist er allen, die ihm gehorchen, der Urheber ewigen Heils geworden, 10 von Gott zubenannt: Hoherpriester "nach der Ordnung Melchisedeks".

Erfahrung und Reife im Glauben

11 Davon haben wir nun viel zu sagen, und solches, was schwer zu erklären ist, weil ihr träge geworden seid zum Hören; 12 und obschon ihr der Zeit nach Lehrer sein solltet, habt ihr wieder nötig, daß man euch gewisse Anfangsgründe der Aussprüche Gottes lehre, und seid der Milch bedürftig geworden und nicht fester Speise. 13 Denn wer noch Milch genießt, der ist unerfahren im Worte der Gerechtigkeit; denn er ist unmündig. 14 Die feste Speise aber ist für die Gereiften, deren Sinne durch Übung geschult sind zur Unterscheidung des Guten und des Bösen.

Hebrews 5
New English Translation

5 For every high priest is taken from among the people[a] and appointed[b] to represent them before God,[c] to offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins. 2 He is able to deal compassionately with those who are ignorant and erring, since he also is subject to weakness, 3 and for this reason he is obligated to make sin offerings for himself as well as for the people. 4 And no one assumes this honor[d] on his own initiative,[e] but only when called to it by God,[f] as in fact Aaron was. 5 So also Christ did not glorify himself in becoming high priest, but the one who glorified him was God,[g] who said to him, “You are my Son! Today I have fathered you,”[h] 6 as also in another place God[i] says, “You are a priest forever in the order of Melchizedek.”[j] 7 During his earthly life[k] Christ[l] offered[m] both requests and supplications, with loud cries and tears, to the one who was able to save him from death and he was heard because of his devotion. 8 Although he was a son, he learned obedience through the things he suffered.[n] 9 And by being perfected in this way, he became the source of eternal salvation to all who obey him, 10 and he was designated[o] by God as high priest in the order of Melchizedek.[p]

The Need to Move on to Maturity

11 On this topic we have much to say[q] and it is difficult to explain, since you have become sluggish[r] in hearing. 12 For though you should in fact be teachers by this time,[s] you need someone to teach you the beginning elements of God’s utterances.[t] You have gone back to needing[u] milk, not[v] solid food. 13 For everyone who lives on milk is inexperienced in the message of righteousness, because he is an infant. 14 But solid food is for the mature, whose perceptions are trained by practice to discern both good and evil.

  22. Hebrews 5:12 tc ‡ Most texts, including some early and significant ones (א2 A B* D Ψ 0122 0278 1881 M sy Cl), have καί (kai, “and”) immediately preceding οὐ (ou, “not”), but other equally significant witnesses (P46 א* B2 C 33 81 1739 lat Or Did) lack the conjunction. As it was a natural tendency for scribes to add a coordinating conjunction, the καί appears to be a motivated reading. On balance, it is probably best to regard the shorter reading as authentic. NA28 has καί in brackets, indicating doubts as to its authenticity.
