Hebrews 7:10

7:10 For he was still in his ancestor Abraham’s loins ¹  when Melchizedek met him.

Hebrews 8:7

8:7 For if that first covenant had been faultless, no one would have looked for a second one. ² 

[7:10]  ¹ tn Grk “in the loins of his father” (a reference to Abraham). The name “Abraham” has been repeated in the translation at this point (cf. v. 9) in order to clarify the referent (i.e., what ancestor was in view).

[8:7]  ² tn Grk “no occasion for a second one would have been sought.”
