Hebrews 7:20-22
Easy-to-Read Version
20 Also, it is important that God made a promise with an oath when he made Jesus high priest. When those other men became priests, there was no oath. 21 But Christ became a priest with God’s oath. God said to him,
“The Lord has made a promise with an oath
and will not change his mind:
‘You are a priest forever.’” (A)
22 So this means that Jesus is the guarantee of a better agreement from God to his people.
