14 It is well known that he was born a member of the tribe of Judah; and Moses did not mention this tribe when he spoke of priests.
15 The matter becomes even plainer; a different priest has appeared, who is like Melchizedek.
16 He was made a priest, not by human rules and regulations, but through the power of a life which has no end.
17 For the scripture says, “You will be a priest forever, in the priestly order of Melchizedek.”
18 The old rule, then, is set aside, because it was weak and useless.
19 For the Law of Moses could not make anything perfect. And now a better hope has been provided through which we come near to God.
20 In addition, there is also God's vow. There was no such vow when the others were made priests.
