Yet the one these things are spoken about belongs to a different tribe, and no one from that tribe has ever officiated at the altar.

For it is clear that our Lord is descended from Judah, yet Moses said nothing about priests in connection with that tribe.

And it could be said that Levi himself, who receives tithes, paid a tithe through Abraham.

who has become a priest not by a legal regulation about physical descent but by the power of an indestructible life.
