Hebrews 7:13-16

7:13 Yet the one these things are spoken about belongs to ¹  a different tribe, and no one from that tribe ²  has ever officiated at the altar. 7:14 For it is clear that our Lord is descended from Judah, yet Moses said nothing about priests in connection with that tribe. 7:15 And this is even clearer if another priest arises in the likeness of Melchizedek, 7:16 who has become a priest not by a legal regulation about physical descent ³  but by the power of an indestructible life.

[7:13]  ¹ tn Grk “shares in.”

[7:13]  ² tn Grk “from which no one.”

[7:16]  ³ tn Grk “a law of a fleshly command.”
