  according to the custom of the priest’s office, his lot was to enter into the temple of the Lord and burn incense.

• Luke 1:23

  When the days of his service were fulfilled, he departed to his house.

• Hebrews 5:6

  As he says also in another place, “You are a priest forever, after the order of Melchizedek.”

• Hebrews 5:10

  named by God a high priest after the order of Melchizedek.

• Hebrews 5:11

  About him we have many words to say, and hard to interpret, seeing you have become dull of hearing.

• Hebrews 6:20

  where as a forerunner Jesus entered for us, having become a high priest forever after the order of Melchizedek.

• Hebrews 7:1

  For this Melchizedek, king of Salem, priest of God Most High, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings and blessed him,

• Hebrews 7:2

  to whom also Abraham divided a tenth part of all (being first, by interpretation, “king of righteousness”, and then also “king of Salem”, which means “king of peace”;

• Hebrews 7:3

  without father, without mother, without genealogy, having neither beginning of days nor end of life, but made like the Son of God), remains a priest continually.

• Hebrews 7:4

  Now if there were perfection through the Levitical priesthood (for under it the people have received the law), what further need was there for another priest to arise after the order of Melchizedek, and not be called after the order of Aaron?

• Hebrews 7:12

  For the priesthood being changed, there is of necessity a change made also in the law.

• Hebrews 7:14

  For it is evident that our Lord has sprung out of Judah, about which tribe Moses spoke nothing concerning priesthood.

• Hebrews 7:15

  This is yet more abundantly evident, if after the likeness of Melchizedek there arises another priest,

• Hebrews 7:16

  who has been made, not after the law of a fleshly commandment, but after the power of an endless life:

• Hebrews 7:17

  for it is testified, “You are a priest forever, according to the order of Melchizedek.”

• Hebrews 7:18

  For there is an annulling of a foregoing commandment because of its weakness and uselessness

• Hebrews 7:19

  (for the law made nothing perfect), and a bringing in of a better hope, through which we draw near to God.

• Hebrews 7:20

  Inasmuch as he was not made priest without the taking of an oath

• Hebrews 7:21

  (for they indeed have been made priests without an oath), but he with an oath by him that says of him, “The Lord swore and will not change his mind, ‘You are a priest forever, according to the order of Melchizedek.’”

• Hebrews 10:11

  Every priest indeed stands day by day serving and often offering the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins,
