Homilist Hebrews 7:14-24 For it is evident that our Lord sprang out of Juda; of which tribe Moses spoke nothing concerning priesthood.… I. CHRIST'S PRIESTHOOD IS NOT AN ARBITRARY ORDINANCE, BUT A NECESSARY FACT. 1. Christ is a priest by the necessity of His own nature — God-man. 2. Christ is a priest by the necessity of depraved souls. II. HIS PRIESTHOOD IS NOT A TEMPORARY ORDINANCE, BUT AN ENDLESS POWER. 1. His priesthood was not for the mere temporal interests of mankind. 2. His priesthood was not merely for the spiritual interest of the soul in time. (Homilist.) Parallel Verses KJV: For it is evident that our Lord sprang out of Juda; of which tribe Moses spake nothing concerning priesthood. |
