Without father, without mother, without descent, having neither beginning of days, nor end of life; but made like unto the Son of God; abideth a priest continually.

Without father: That is, as the Syriac renders, "Whose father and mother are not inscribed among the genealogies; and therefore it was not known who he was."

And verily they that are of the sons of Levi, who receive the office of the priesthood, have a commandment to take tithes of the people according to the law, that is, of their brethren, though they come out of the loins of Abraham:

who: Hebrews 5:4, Exodus 28:1, Numbers 16:10, Numbers 16:11, Numbers 17:3-10, Numbers 18:7, Numbers 18:21-26
to take: Leviticus 27:30-33, Numbers 18:26-32, 2 Chronicles 31:4-6, Nehemiah 13:10

But he whose descent is not counted from them received tithes of Abraham, and blessed him that had the promises.

And without all contradiction the less is blessed of the better.

payed: Hebrews 7:4, Genesis 14:20, Romans 5:12, *marg.
Reciprocal: Numbers 31:41 - Eleazar

For he was yet in the loins of his father, when Melchisedec met him.

Hebrews 7:5, Genesis 35:11, Genesis 46:26, 1 Kings 8:19
Reciprocal: Genesis 14:18 - the priest

11.

If therefore perfection were by the Levitical priesthood, (for under it the people received the law,) what further need was there that another priest should rise after the order of Melchisedec, and not be called after the order of Aaron?

perfection: וכוישףיע [Strong's G5050], completion, or fulfilment of the plan and purpose of God. Hebrews 7:18, Hebrews 7:19, Hebrews 8:7, Hebrews 8:10-13, Hebrews 10:1-4, Galatians 2:21, Galatians 4:3, Galatians 4:9, Colossians 2:10-17

12.

For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a change also of the law.

a change: Isaiah 66:21, Jeremiah 31:31-34, Ezekiel 16:61, Acts 6:13, Acts 6:14
Reciprocal: Hebrews 7:18 - a disannulling Hebrews 8:13 - he hath

For he of whom these things are spoken pertaineth to another tribe, of which no man gave attendance at the altar.

of which: Numbers 16:40, Numbers 17:5, 2 Chronicles 26:16-21
Reciprocal: Joel 1:13 - ye ministers

14.

For it is evident that our Lord sprang out of Juda; of which tribe Moses spake nothing concerning priesthood.

Our Lord: Luke 1:43, John 20:13, John 20:28, Ephesians 1:3, Philippians 3:8
sprang: Genesis 46:12, Genesis 49:10, Ruth 4:18-22, Isaiah 11:1, Jeremiah 23:5, Jeremiah 23:6, Micah 5:2, Matthew 1:3-16, Luke 2:23-33, Luke 3:33, Romans 1:3, Romans 2:3, Revelation 5:5, Revelation 22:16

And it is yet far more evident: for that after the similitude of Melchisedec there ariseth another priest,

Reciprocal: Hebrews 5:6 - Thou

Who is made, not after the law of a carnal commandment, but after the power of an endless life.

For there is verily a disannulling of the commandment going before for the weakness and unprofitableness thereof.

a disannulling: Hebrews 7:11, Hebrews 7:12, Hebrews 8:7-13, Hebrews 10:1-9, Romans 3:31, Galatians 3:15, Galatians 3:17
the weakness: Hebrews 7:19, Hebrews 8:7, Hebrews 8:8, Hebrews 9:9, Hebrews 9:10, Hebrews 10:1-4, Hebrews 13:9, Acts 13:39, Romans 8:3, Galatians 4:9, Galatians 4:21, 1 Timothy 4:8

19.

For the law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better hope did; by the which we draw nigh unto God.

the law: Hebrews 7:11, Hebrews 9:9, Acts 13:39, Romans 3:20, Romans 3:21, Romans 8:3, Galatians 2:16
made: ץהום [Strong's G3762], ופוכוישףום, completed nothing; it was the introduction, but not the completion.

20.

And inasmuch as not without an oath he was made priest:

21.

(For those priests were made without an oath; but this with an oath by him that said unto him, The Lord sware and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec:)

an oath: or, swearing of an oath
The Lord: Hebrews 7:17, Psalms 110:4

By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament.

a surety: Genesis 43:9, Genesis 44:32, Proverbs 6:1, Proverbs 20:16

And they truly were many priests, because they were not suffered to continue by reason of death:

But this man, because he continueth ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood.

But:  הו [Strong's G1161], But he, that is, Christ, because "he continueth ever," hath בנבסבגבפןם [Strong's G531], יוסשףץםחם [Strong's G2420], "a priesthood that passeth not away from him."
