1 For every High Priest is chosen from among men, and is appointed to act on behalf of men in matters relating to God, in order to offer both gifts and sin-offerings, 2 and must be one who is able to bear patiently with the ignorant and erring, because he himself also is beset with infirmity. 3 And for this reason he is required to offer sin-offerings not only for the people but also for himself. 4 And no one takes this honourable office upon himself, but only accepts it when called to it by God, as Aaron was.
