Hebrews 7:21
Hebrews 7:21 For those priests. The Aaronic priests. Were made without an oath. Their priesthood did not rest upon an oath. Hence, it was not eternal; Christ's did, for God (see Psalms 110:4) gave it the sanctity of an oath. The solemn words are significant: "The Lord hath sworn, and will not repent, Thou [art] a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek".
