Hebrews 7:21-23
New Century Version
21 but Christ became a priest with God’s oath. God said:
“The Lord has made a promise
and will not change his mind.
‘You are a priest forever.’” Psalm 110:4
22 This means that Jesus is the guarantee of a better agreement[a] from God to his people.
23 When one of the other priests died, he could not continue being a priest. So there were many priests.
