Hebreus 5:10 Meaning and Commentary

Hebrews 5:10

Called of God an high priest, after the order of
Melchisedec.
] (ytrbd le) , according to what is said of him, ( Psalms 110:4 ) there is a resemblance between Melchizedek and Christ; many things that are said of the one, agree with the other: there is a likeness in Melchizedek to Christ; in his person, and what is said of him, that he was without father and mother; and in his office as a priest, and in the manner of his instalment into it; and in the antiquity, dignity, and perpetuity of it: and this is repeated for the further confirmation of Christ's priesthood, and is a conclusion of the truth of it from sufficient evidence: this does not so much design the constitution of Christ as priest, nor the call of him to that office, as the denomination or surnaming of him a priest of Melchizedek's order, because of the agreement between them; and contains a reason of Christ's being the author of eternal salvation, because he is a priest for ever; and prevents any objections against Christ's priesthood, and opens a way to discourse more largely concerning it.

Hebreus 5:10 In-Context

8 ainda que era Filho, aprendeu a obediência por meio daquilo que sofreu;
9 e, tendo sido aperfeiçoado, veio a ser autor de eterna salvação para todos os que lhe obedecem,
10 sendo por Deus chamado sumo sacerdote, segundo a ordem de Melquisedeque.
11 Sobre isso temos muito que dizer, mas de difícil interpretação, porquanto vos tornastes tardios em ouvir.
12 Porque, devendo já ser mestres em razão do tempo, ainda necessitais de que se vos torne a ensinar os princípios elementares dos oráculos de Deus, e vos haveis feito tais que precisais de leite, e não de alimento sólido.
