Psalms 110:4

Hebrews 5:1-14
For every high priest, being taken from among men, is appointed for men in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins:who can bear gently with the ignorant and erring, for that he himself also is compassed with infirmity;and by reason thereof is bound, as for the people, so also for himself, to offer for sins.And no man taketh the honor unto himself, but when he is called of God, even as was Aaron.So Christ also glorified not himself to be made a high priest, but he that spake unto him, Thou art my Son, This day have I begotten thee:as he saith also in another place, Thou art a priest for ever After the order of Melchizedek.Who in the days of his flesh, having offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears unto him that was able to save him from death, and having been heard for his godly fear,though he was a Son, yet learned obedience by the things which he suffered;and having been made perfect, he became unto all them that obey him the author of eternal salvation;named of God a high priest after the order of Melchizedek.Of whom we have many things to say, and hard of interpretation, seeing ye are become dull of hearing.For when by reason of the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need again that some one teach you the rudiments of the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of solid food.For every one that partaketh of milk is without experience of the word of righteousness; for he is a babe.But solid food is for fullgrown men, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern good and evil.

Hebrews 7:17-24
for it is witnessed of him, Thou art a priest for ever After the order of Melchizedek.For there is a disannulling of a foregoing commandment because of its weakness and unprofitableness( for the law made nothing perfect), and a bringing in thereupon of a better hope, through which we draw nigh unto God.And inasmuch as it is not without the taking of an oath( for they indeed have been made priests without an oath; but he with an oath by him that saith of him, The Lord sware and will not repent himself, Thou art a priest for ever);by so much also hath Jesus become the surety of a better covenant.And they indeed have been made priests many in number, because that by death they are hindered from continuing:but he, because he abideth for ever, hath his priesthood unchangeable.

Hebrews 8:1-10
Now in the things which we are saying the chief point is this: We have such a high priest, who sat down on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens,a minister of the sanctuary, and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord pitched, not man.For every high priest is appointed to offer both gifts and sacrifices: wherefore it is necessary that this high priest also have somewhat to offer.Now if he were on earth, he would not be a priest at all, seeing there are those who offer the gifts according to the law;who serve that which is a copy and shadow of the heavenly things, even as Moses is warned of God when he is about to make the tabernacle: for, See, saith he, that thou make all things according to the pattern that was showed thee in the mount.But now hath he obtained a ministry the more excellent, by so much as he is also the mediator of a better covenant, which hath been enacted upon better promises.For if that first covenant had been faultless, then would no place have been sought for a second.For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, That I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah;Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers In the day that I took them by the hand to lead them forth out of the land of Egypt; For they continued not in my covenant, And I regarded them not, saith the Lord.For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel After those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, And on their heart also will I write them: And I will be to them a God, And they shall be to me a people:
