This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
But this man, because he continueth ever; this Priest, Jesus, Heb_7:22, is opposed to the Aaronical multitude; this excellent one, 1Ti_2:5, after his resurrection abideth immortal. He is eternal and permanent for person and office: see Heb_7:25 Rom_6:9. They are vanished, but he continues for ever, Rev_1:17,18.
Hath an unchangeable priesthood; aparabaton, a priesthood that cannot pass from him to any other, as Aaron’s did to his successors: no person is to be a sharer in it, nor a successor to it: it is reciprocal with himself; his individual person terminateth it for ever; he hath no vicars nor successors of his priesthood, whatever the pope pretends to in it.
