Hebrews 7:14

Read in context

Hebrews 7:12–16 · Berean Standard Bible

12 For when the priesthood is changed, the law must be changed as well.

13 He of whom these things are said belonged to a different tribe, from which no one has ever served at the altar.

14 For it is clear that our Lord descended from Judah, a tribe as to which Moses said nothing about priests.

15 And this point is even more clear if another priest like Melchizedek appears,

16 one who has become a priest not by a law of succession, but by the power of an indestructible life.
