Hebrews 7:16-19

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

¹⁷For it is testified:

“You are a priest forever

in the order of Melchizedek.”

¹⁸So the former commandment is set aside because it was weak and useless

¹⁹(for the law made nothing perfect), and a better hope is introduced, by which we draw near to God.
