Hebreos 7:10 Meaning and Commentary

Hebrews 7:10

For he was yet in the loins of his father
Abraham; namely, Levi and his whole posterity; which is to be understood seminally, just as all mankind were in the loins of Adam, when he sinned and fell, and so they sinned and fell in him; and so Levi was in Abraham's loins,

when Melchisedec met him;
which, as it proves Melchizedek to be greater than Levi, and much more Jesus Christ, who is a priest of his order, which is the grand thing the apostle has in view; so it serves to illustrate several points of doctrine, in which either of the public heads, Adam and Christ, are concerned, with respect to their seed and offspring; such as personal election in Christ, an eternal donation of all blessings of grace to the elect in him, eternal justification in him, the doctrine of original sin, and the saints' crucifixion, burial, resurrection, and session in Christ, and together with him.

Hebreos 7:10 In-Context

8 Los sacerdotes que reciben los diezmos son hombres que mueren, asĂ­ que Melquisedec es superior a ellos porque se nos dice que sigue viviendo.
9 Además podríamos decir que esos levitas —los que reciben el diezmo— pagaron un diezmo a Melquisedec cuando lo pagó su antepasado Abraham.
10 A pesar de que LevĂ­ aĂșn no habĂ­a nacido, la simiente de la cual provino ya existĂ­a en el cuerpo de Abraham cuando Melquisedec recibiĂł su diezmo.
11 Entonces, si el sacerdocio de LevĂ­ —sobre el cual se basĂł la ley— hubiera podido lograr la perfecciĂłn que Dios propuso, Âżpor quĂ© fue necesario que Dios estableciera un sacerdocio diferente, con un sacerdote segĂșn el orden de Melquisedec en lugar del orden de LevĂ­ y AarĂłn?
12 Y si se cambia el sacerdocio, también es necesario cambiar la ley para permitirlo.
