“And none of this happened without an oath. For others became priests without an oath,”
Hebrews 7:20 (BSB)
Context Reading
18So the former commandment is set aside because it was weak and useless 19( for the law made nothing perfect), and a better hope is introduced, by which we draw near to God. 20And none of this happened without an oath. For others became priests without an oath, 21but Jesus became a priest with an oath by the One who said to Him: “The Lord has sworn and will not change His mind: ‘You are a priest forever.’” 22Because of this oath, Jesus has become the guarantee of a better covenant.
