Hebrews 5:1

5:1 For every high priest is taken from among the people ¹  and appointed ²  to represent them before God, ³  to offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins.

Hebrews 5:3

5:3 and for this reason he is obligated to make sin offerings for himself as well as for the people.

[5:1]  ¹ tn Grk “from among men,” but since the point in context is shared humanity (rather than shared maleness), the plural Greek term ἀνθρώπων (anqrwpwn) has been translated “people.”

[5:1]  ² tn Grk “who is taken from among people is appointed.”

[5:1]  ³ tn Grk “appointed on behalf of people in reference to things relating to God.”
