Hebrews 7:23; Hebrews 7:27 (The Message)
23
Earlier there were a lot of priests, for they died and had to be replaced.
27
Unlike the other high priests, he doesn't have to offer sacrifices for his own sins every day before he can get around to us and our sins. He's done it, once and for all: offered up himself as the sacrifice.
