PRIESTHOOD
Heb 7:5 And truly they that are of the sons of Levi, who receive the office
of the priesthood, have a commandment to take tithes of the people according
to the law, that is, of their brothers, though they come out of the loins of
Abraham:
11 If therefore perfection were by the Levitical priesthood, (for under it
the people received the law,) what further need was there that another
priest should rise after the order of Melchisedec, and not be called after
the order of Aaron?
12 For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a change
also of the law.
7:24 But this man, because he continues ever, has an unchangeable priesthood.
25 Why he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come to God by him,
seeing he ever lives to make intercession for them.
1 Pe 2:5 You also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy
priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus
Christ.
9 But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a
peculiar people; that you should show forth the praises of him who has
called you out of darkness into his marvelous light;
Rev 1:6 And has made us kings and priests to God and his Father; to him be
glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
5:10 And have made us to our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on
the earth.
Gen 14:18 And Melchizedek king of Salem brought forth bread and wine: and he
was the priest of the most high God.
19 And he blessed him, and said, Blessed be Abram of the most high God,
possessor of heaven and earth:
20 And blessed be the most high God, which has delivered your enemies into
your hand. And he gave him tithes of all.
Ex 2:15 Now when Pharaoh heard this thing, he sought to slay Moses. But
Moses fled from the face of Pharaoh, and dwelled in the land of Midian: and
he sat down by a well.
16 Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters: and they came and drew
water, and filled the troughs to water their father’s flock.
28:1 And take you to you Aaron your brother, and his sons with him, from
among the children of Israel, that he may minister to me in the priest’s
office, even Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar, Aaron’s sons.
2 And you shall make holy garments for Aaron your brother for glory and for
beauty.
3 And you shall speak to all that are wise hearted, whom I have filled with
the spirit of wisdom, that they may make Aaron’s garments to consecrate him,
that he may minister to me in the priest’s office.
Num 16:8 And Moses said to Korah, Hear, I pray you, you sons of Levi:
9 Seems it but a small thing to you, that the God of Israel has separated
you from the congregation of Israel, to bring you near to himself to do the
service of the tabernacle of the LORD, and to stand before the congregation
to minister to them?
10 And he has brought you near to him, and all your brothers the sons of
Levi with you: and seek you the priesthood also?
11 For which cause both you and all your company are gathered together
against the LORD: and what is Aaron, that you murmur against him?
18:1 And the LORD said to Aaron, You and your sons and your father’s house
with you shall bear the iniquity of the sanctuary: and you and your sons
with you shall bear the iniquity of your priesthood.
6 And I, behold, I have taken your brothers the Levites from among the
children of Israel: to you they are given as a gift for the LORD, to do the
service of the tabernacle of the congregation.
7 Therefore you and your sons with you shall keep your priest’s office for
everything of the altar, and within the veil; and you shall serve: I have
given your priest’s office to you as a service of gift: and the stranger
that comes near shall be put to death.
Ezr 2:61 And of the children of the priests: the children of Habaiah, the
children of Koz, the children of Barzillai; which took a wife of the
daughters of Barzillai the Gileadite, and was called after their name:
62 These sought their register among those that were reckoned by genealogy,
but they were not found: therefore were they, as polluted, put from the
priesthood.
63 And the Tirshatha said to them, that they should not eat of the most holy
things, till there stood up a priest with Urim and with Thummim.
Mal 2:7 For the priest’s lips should keep knowledge, and they should seek
the law at his mouth: for he is the messenger of the LORD of hosts.
