Hebrews 7:28

Made Simple — Modern English Translation

Translated by Verse Made Simple Editorial
KJV ORIGINAL
For the law maketh men high priests which have infirmity; but the word of the oath, which was since the law, maketh the Son, who is consecrated for evermore.
Close to the original. Clear modern English.
✦ MADE SIMPLE

Here's the thing — the old law put regular people in charge as high priests, and they had all the same flaws and weaknesses we do. But God made a promise that came after the law, and that promise made his Son the priest forever — someone who's actually perfect and stays that way.

⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE

Human priests mess up because they're human, but Jesus is the perfect priest who never will.
