The Epistle to the Hebrews

- Kapitel 5 -

(Psalm 110:1–7)
1
When God chooses a high priest, he selects a man from the people. This man must serve God for the people; he must give God gifts and sacrifice animals to him for the people’s sins.
2
A high priest can be gentle with those who know little about God and with those who sin against him. This is because the high priest himself is weak with sin.
3
As a result, he also must sacrifice animals, because he sins just like the people do.
4
But no one can honor himself by deciding to become the high priest. Instead, God chose each man to become a high priest, as he chose Aaron to be the first high priest.
5
Similarly, Messiah also did not honor himself by becoming high priest. Instead, God the Father appointed him by saying to him what the psalmist wrote in the scriptures: “You are my son! Today I have declared that I am your father!”
6
And he also said to Messiah what the psalmist wrote in another scripture passage: “You are a priest eternally in the way that Melchizedek was a priest.”
7
In the days when Messiah was living here in the world, he prayed to God and cried out loudly to him in tears. He asked God, who could save him from dying. And God listened to him, because Messiah honored him and obeyed him.
8
Although Messiah is God’s own son, he learned to obey God by suffering and dying.
9
By accomplishing everything that God wanted him to do, he has now become fully able to save eternally all who obey him.
10
God has designated him to be our high priest in the way that Melchizedek was a high priest.

Milk and Solid Food

(1 Corinthians 3:1–9)
11
I want to tell you much about the many ways in which Messiah resembles Melchizedek. This is hard for me to explain to you because you find it so difficult to understand.
12
You became Messianics long ago. So by now you should be teaching God’s truths to others. But you still need someone to teach you again the elementary truths of the words of God from the scriptures, starting from the beginning. You need those basic truths like babies need milk. You are not ready to learn more difficult things, things that are like the solid food that mature people need.
13
Remember that those who are still learning these elementary truths do not understand what God says about becoming righteous. Neither do they yet know right from wrong. They are just like babies who need milk!
14
But the more difficult spiritual truth is for people who know God better, just like solid food is for people who are adults. They can tell the difference between what is good and what is evil, because they have trained themselves by learning what is right and what is wrong.
(Psalm 110:1–7)
1
For every high priest, being taken from among men, is appointed for men in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins.
2
The high priest can deal gently with those who are ignorant and going astray, because he himself is also surrounded with weakness.
3
Because of this, he must offer sacrifices for sins for the people, as well as for himself.
4
Nobody takes this honor on himself, but he is called by God, just like Aaron was.
5
So also Christ didn’t glorify himself to be made a high priest, but it was he who said to him,You are my Son. Today I have become your father.”(a)
6
As he says also in another place,You are a priest forever, after the order of Melchizedek.”(b)
7
He, in the days of his flesh, having offered up prayers and petitions with strong crying and tears to him who was able to save him from death, and having been heard for his godly fear,
8
though he was a Son, yet learned obedience by the things which he suffered.
9
Having been made perfect, he became to all of those who obey him the author of eternal salvation,
10
named by God a high priest after the order of Melchizedek.

Milk and Solid Food

(1 Corinthians 3:1–9)
11
About him we have many words to say, and hard to interpret, seeing you have become dull of hearing.
12
For although by this time you should be teachers, you again need to have someone teach you the rudiments of the first principles of the revelations of God. You have come to need milk, and not solid food.
13
For everyone who lives on milk is not experienced in the word of righteousness, for he is a baby.
14
But solid food is for those who are full grown, who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern good and evil.
