- Kapitel 5 -

(Psalm 110:1–7)
1
For every high priest, having been taken from among men, is appointed on behalf of men toward the things which pertain to God, so that he may offer gifts and sacrifices on behalf of sins;
2
he is able to commiserate with those who are ignorant and who wander astray, because he himself is also encompassed by infirmity.
3
And because of this, he also must make such offerings for sins even for himself, in the same manner as for the people.
4
Neither does anyone take up this honor himself, but rather he who is called by God, just as Aaron was.
5
Thus, even Christ did not glorify himself, so as to become High Priest, but instead, it was God who said to him: “You are my Son. Today I have begotten you.”
6
And similarly, he says in another place: “You are a priest forever, according to the order of Melchizedek.”
7
It is Christ who, in the days of his flesh, with a strong cry and tears, offered prayers and supplications to the One who was able to save him from death, and who was heard because of his reverence.
8
And although, certainly, he is the Son of God, he learned obedience by the things that he suffered.
9
And having reached his consummation, he was made, for all who are obedient to him, the cause of eternal salvation,
10
having been called by God to be the High Priest, according to the order of Melchizedek.

Milk and Solid Food

(1 Corinthians 3:1–9)
11
Our message about him is great, and difficult to explain when speaking, because you have been made feeble when listening.
12
For even though it is the time when you ought to be teachers, you are still lacking, so that you must be taught the things that are the basic elements of the Word of God, and so you have been made like those who are in need of milk, and not of solid food.
13
For anyone who is still feeding on milk is still unskillful in the Word of Justice; for he is like an infant.
14
But solid food is for those who are mature, for those who, by practice, have sharpened their mind, so as to discern good from evil.
(Psalm 110:1–7)
1
For every high priest, being taken from among men, is appointed for men in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins.
2
The high priest can deal gently with those who are ignorant and going astray, because he himself is also surrounded with weakness.
3
Because of this, he must offer sacrifices for sins for the people, as well as for himself.
4
Nobody takes this honor on himself, but he is called by God, just like Aaron was.
5
So also Christ didn’t glorify himself to be made a high priest, but it was he who said to him,You are my Son. Today I have become your father.”(a)
6
As he says also in another place,You are a priest forever, after the order of Melchizedek.”(b)
7
He, in the days of his flesh, having offered up prayers and petitions with strong crying and tears to him who was able to save him from death, and having been heard for his godly fear,
8
though he was a Son, yet learned obedience by the things which he suffered.
9
Having been made perfect, he became to all of those who obey him the author of eternal salvation,
10
named by God a high priest after the order of Melchizedek.

Milk and Solid Food

(1 Corinthians 3:1–9)
11
About him we have many words to say, and hard to interpret, seeing you have become dull of hearing.
12
For although by this time you should be teachers, you again need to have someone teach you the rudiments of the first principles of the revelations of God. You have come to need milk, and not solid food.
13
For everyone who lives on milk is not experienced in the word of righteousness, for he is a baby.
14
But solid food is for those who are full grown, who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern good and evil.
