Hebrews 7:11

Context
Jesus and the Priesthood of Melchizedek

7:11 So if perfection had in fact been possible through the Levitical priesthood – for on that basis 1  the people received the law – what further need would there have been for another priest to arise, said to be in the order of Melchizedek and not in Aaron’s order?

Hebrews 7:23-24

Context
7:23 And the others 2  who became priests were numerous, because death prevented them 3  from continuing in office, 4  7:24 but he holds his priesthood permanently since he lives forever.

1 tn Grk “based on it.”

2 tn Grk “they on the one hand” in contrast with “he on the other hand” in v. 24.

3 tn Grk “they were prevented by death.”

4 tn Grk “from continuing” (the words “in office” are supplied for clarity).
