Hebrews 7:16-18
EasyEnglish Bible
16 Jesus did not become a priest because of a law about which family he came from. He became God's priest because of his powerful life that nothing could ever destroy. 17 The Bible speaks about him as a priest like this:
‘You will be a priest for ever,
in the same way that Melchizedek was God's priest.’[a]
18 So the old law about priests no longer has authority. It was weak and it could not help people.
