Hébreux 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.

Hébreux 5:10 In-Context

8 Bien qu'étant Fils, a appris l'obéissance par les choses qu'il a souffertes,
9 Et ayant été rendu parfait, il est devenu l'auteur du salut éternel pour tous ceux qui lui obéissent;
10 Dieu l'ayant déclaré souverain Sacrificateur, selon l'ordre de Melchisédec.
11 A ce sujet nous avons beaucoup de choses à dire, qui sont difficiles à expliquer, parce que vous êtes devenus lents à comprendre.
12 En effet, tandis que vous devriez être maîtres depuis longtemps, vous avez encore besoin d'apprendre les premiers éléments des oracles de Dieu; et vous en êtes venus à avoir besoin de lait, et non de nourriture solide.
