Hebrews 5:1 - Forerunner Commentary

Hebrews 5:1

Qualifications for High Priesthood

1 For every high priest taken from among men ^ais appointed for men in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins.

2 He can¹ have compassion on those who are ignorant and going astray, since he himself is also subject to ^aweakness.

3 Because of this he is required as for the people, so also for ^ahimself, to offer sacrifices for sins.

4 And no man takes this honor to himself, but he who is called by God, just as ^aAaron was.
