Hebrews 5:
High priest are selected by
men to represent them to God as well as offer sacrifices for their sin to God.
God chooses the high priest, like Aaron, God also chose Jesus as it was
testified to in Psalms. Jesus as son of God offered prayers and
petition to God, and it was after he had perfected is obedience unto death that
God raised him to become external salvation for all who had faith in Jesus.
God made him a high priest under Melchizedek's (king and high priest of Salem
(Jerusalem), who took an offering from Abraham on the future promised land)
order. The matured can distinguish the wisdom of God's good from evil.
Hebrews 6:
Let us move on to the matured
truth of God in Jesus based on scriptures. It is very difficult to bring
back to repentance the faithful in Christ who were once filled with the Holy
Spirit, seen the goodness of God's word, and powers of the coming age (God's
kingdom in Jesus) after they fall way from faith in Christ because it is to
crucify Christ again in disgrace. Land that produces good harvest are a
blessing to farmer from God, but the one that produces thorns are a curse to the
farmer and it will be burnt. Maintain your faith and good works in
Christ to the end because God is just as well as remembers your love for people
of God in Jesus. God will faithfully reward those who are faithful to the
end. God swore by himself when he made a promise to Abraham because none
is greater and God is unchanging.

Hebrews 7:
Melchizedek (king and high
priest of Salem (Jerusalem)) took tithe from Abraham on all the plunder he got
from war against the kings. Melchizedek has no parent or ancestry, but his
name means "king of Righteousness" and King of Salem means "king of peace".
Melchizedek was quite great for Abraham to give him tithe and by law the Levites
had to collect tithe from the other 12 tribes (Joseph was split into Manasseh &
Ephraim). Melchizedek was not a descendants of Levi yet collected tithe
from Abraham and blessed Abraham who had the promise of God, so he was greater
than Abraham. The Jewish law under Aaron was not perfect, so another
covenant was need under Melchizedek through Jesus, which is a new change.
Jesus is from Judah and not Levi, as commanded by the Jewish law, and David in
Psalms said that Jesus is priest forever under Melchizedek, which is based on
the power of an everlasting life and not Jewish ancestral laws. Judaism
and the Jewish law is hopeless and useless in getting us closer to God.
Others become priest by ancestry, but Jesus became priest by an oath and God
declared it in Psalms. Unlike other priest who die and offer sacrifice
daily, also for themselves to cleanse their sins, Christ lives forever and made
his sinless sacrifice once and for all.
