For this reason He ought by all means to become like His brothers, that He might become a merciful and faithful high priest in the things respecting God, in order to make propitiation for the sins of His people.

For in what He has suffered, being tried, He is able to help those being tried.

For this reason, holy brothers, called to be partakers of a heavenly calling , consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession, Christ Jesus,

For He was counted worthy of more glory than Moses, by so much as the one having built the house has more honor than the house.

For every house is built by someone; but He who built all things is God.

And "Moses" truly "was faithful in all his house" as a ministering servant, for a testimony of the things having been spoken; Num. 12:7

For we have become partakers of Christ, if truly we hold the beginning of the assurance firm to the end;

For hearing, some provoked Him , but not all those coming out of Egypt through Moses.

For, indeed, we have had the gospel preached to us , even as they also; but the Word did not profit those hearing it , not having been mixed with faith in the ones who heard.

For we, the ones believing, enter into the rest, even as He said, "As I swore in My wrath, they shall not enter into My rest," though the works had come into being from the foundation of the world. LXX-Psa. 94:11; MT-Psa. 95:11

For He has spoken somewhere about the seventh day this way, "And God rested from all His works in the seventh day." Gen. 2:2

Therefore, since it remains for some to enter into it, and those who formerly had the gospel preached did not enter in on account of disobedience,

For if Joshua gave them rest, then He would not have afterwards spoken about another day.

For he entering into His rest, he himself also rested from his works, as God had rested from His own. LXX-Psa. 95:11; Gen. 2:2

For the Word of God is living, and powerfully working, and sharper than every two-edged sword, and piercing as far as the division of both soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and able to judge of the thoughts and intentions of the heart;

For we do not have a high priest not being able to sympathize with our weaknesses but One having been tried in all respects according to our likeness, apart from sin.

Therefore, let us draw near with confidence to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy, and we may find grace for timely help.

For every high priest being taken from men is appointed on behalf of men in the things respecting God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins;

being able to feel in due measure for those not knowing and being led astray, since he also is circled about with weakness.

And because of this he ought to offer for sins as concerning the people, so also concerning himself.
