Hebrews 7:9-12

⁹And so to speak, Levi, who collects the tenth, paid the tenth through Abraham.

¹⁰For when Melchizedek met Abraham, Levi was still in the loin of his ancestor.

¹¹Now if perfection could have been attained through the Levitical priesthood (for on this basis the people received the law), why was there still need for another priest to appear — one in the order of Melchizedek and not in the order of Aaron?

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