Hebreos 7:15 Meaning and Commentary

Hebrews 7:15

And it is yet far more evident
From a fact which cannot be denied;

for that after the similitude of Melchisedec there ariseth another
priest;
or another has risen, even Jesus the son of David, of the tribe of Judah; another from Aaron, one that is not of his family or tribe, but one like to Melchizedek: hence we learn that Melchizedek and Christ are not the same person; and that the order and similitude of Melchizedek are the same; and that Christ's being of his order only imports that there is a resemblance and likeness between him and Melchizedek, in many things, which are observed in the beginning of this chapter: and this "arising" does not intend Christ's setting up himself, only his appearance in this form; and being expressed in the present tense, denotes the continual being, and virtue of his priesthood.

Hebreos 7:15 In-Context

13 Porque aquel del cual esto se dice, de otra tribu es, de la cual nadie asistió al altar.

14 Porque notorio es que el Señor nuestro nació de la tribu de Judá, sobre cuya tribu nada habló Moisés tocante al sacerdocio.

15 Y aun más manifiesto es, si á semejanza de Melchîsedec se levanta otro sacerdote,

16 El cual no es hecho conforme á la ley del mandamiento carnal, sino según la virtud de vida indisoluble;

17 Pues se da testimonio de él: Tú eres sacerdote para siempre, Según el orden de Melchîsedec.
